8 man punt play?

Post by Hampe »

Is it possible to make a punt play for 8 man football?

Or is there one that already exists?

I made this forever ago, but it still seems to work ok. It contains a punt and punt return play.

Make sure you back up your playbook, or I would really suggest creating a separate one to add this play to. Once you put the punt stuff in the playbook, its hell to get rid of. Once a special teams play is in a playbook, the game doesnt want to let it go. Its apparently hard coded that a playbook MUST have at least one play in every category. The exception is the 8 man playbook, since by default there is no punt. But once you do add the punt play, the game locks it down and will give you grief if you try and delete it.

Oh, and it is possible to make the play, as evidenced above...but it requires some editing of files that I cant really remember.

If I can dig up the process, I will post it here.

No problem, glad it still works ok. You will see some returns for TDs on the big fields.
