    As a huge Janikowski fan this is painful to read on the update...

     

    Fixed so it is not longer possible to hit a 75 yard field goal

    I watched the video last night as I've been interested in this new version... however for me, it will still be a pass. 

    After trying their Pro Football and Pro Basketball demo it's the UI/Interface that kills the interest for me. It just runs SO SLOW. Now I have a decent PC. Good CPU/GFX 32gb Ram and NVME SSD but the delay between the screens is hard to bear and if I imagine myself playing out a full season or career I just can't do it. 

    Don't get me wrong, full credit to the DDS guys making new versions each year and trying to keep the interface fresh and tidy (it sure looks great) but for now I'll just read the forum and see how it progresses for next year.

    See my answers above in bold.

    Thanks for the quick reply! 

     

    OK I'll play around with the free agent signing again tomorrow it might be my fault trying to click everything so fast. 

    Noted on the players over the roster limit. I did see the roster count screen but forgot to sort my players before continuing. 

    I'll play some more tomorrow and post any good/bad or ugly things. So far though the game looks like it will be very fun ones it's more stable. 

    Side note I love the team names, did you just randomly pick them?

    Alpha Version 4.8 has been published.

    https://robmeister89.itch.io/indoor-football-manager/devlog/214010/version-004678

    Sorry for all the updates the last two days, gotta get bugs squashed though lol

    No logs were produced but I experienced the following using the lasted update...

     

    Free agents - select player - request offer - make offer - crash to desktop. Tried it twice both times it happened.

    Clicking the contract's icon on the left toolbar didn't bring up any page?

    Got to game day. The game seemed to sim 3 of the 5 schedule games and update the rankings, but it left my game plus 1 other remaining. I clicked 'sim game' nothing happened. I clicked 'view recap' on a different game and I got crash to desktop again. 

    If I may offer a suggestion for consideration? Have some kind of indication that you have an email on the top bar, maybe on the 'home' part? The calendar is nice but its easy to miss the next event email if you don't remember to check it. 

    Still! My 'Elite Indoor Football' League is ready to go!

    Rigafan,

    Thanks for reporting this! I found the issue and I am working to resolve it. I am planning another update today to fix an issue with the Draft screen UI. I will be sure to include the fix for this as well.

    Amazing!

     

    I look forward to the next update

    Hotfix Alpha 4.7 has been published:

    https://robmeister89.itch.io/indoor-football-manager/devlog/214010/version-00467

    Mr Robmeister!

     

    Since the very first version I have had the same issue:

     

    I make a league, any size/style and go to the draft screen. 

    If I hit "draft until human" I get an error (also an error log that is attached) and it loads "CPU drafting" for a while and drafts only 1 player. 

    If I then go CPU pick until all the teams have players including my own I can close the draft screen then as soon as I hit advance date I get close to desktop with no error log. Everytime!

     

    This is running the latest update, windows10 and also as admin mode. 

     

    Please let me know if I'm being stupid and It's my fault as I really want to play the game!

    Wonder when it will be back?

    According to a post on reddit/xfl it is looking to relaunch in 2022 now. 

     

    I thought the XFL was a nice idea, even the AAF was fun to watch, they have that more 'college' feel with the plays and the action but as mentioned on this thread football fans in general just don't seem to accept any other league and they always seem to vanish.

    I just started to play this game like a couple days ago. It looks so good and it have so much potential, but when I try to play a game calling the plays, I see that when I select the option of ‘Special Teams’ (for make a FG, Punt, etc.) it’s empty and I can’t punt nor make a FG, so I always have to go for it in 4th Down situations, even if it’s near my own endzone... I’ve also noticed that I created 3 new folders with new formations (offensively), I edited some plays in each one (about 3/4 per fold) but when I’m playing a game, the fold is empty as the ‘Special Teams’ one. I’d like to know if this have happened to anyone else and if it have a solution.

     

    As I said, it looks like an amazing game, project and idea, but still have so many bugs. Anyway, congrats to the creators, still work to do, but a good one until for the moment for sure.

    That's odd, i've just checked my save (I sim games but check the next one) and I can use the special team options while play calling. Thats using the latest 0.8.6 version.

    Hey everyone, just getting into football sims. Which is better Front Office Football or Draft Day?

    Front Office Football is the best. The Interface is old/weird/odd but please learn it and once you are used to it. it doesn't matter!

    My tip would be watch some Youtube lets plays and see how they navigate the screens/which screens they use and keep open it will help!

     

    Draft Day is just a pretty interface in my opinion.

    Thanks for the thoughts.  I'm looking forward to playing CT Football Manager.  I do wish The College Years would do a new version though.  

    Just to add I've recently bought Bowl Bound from GreyDogSoftware (its on Steam too) and while it is 'out of date' it is a very fun game. The write up on the Dynasties section here encouraged me to buy it. 

     

    It will be my College game until CT Football is updated a little more!

    Under Settings you need to disable the CPU Assistance to handle coaches. Then you can click on your coaches under Home and you will see a Fire button on the coach page.  When you need to hire a new coach you click on a coach in the coaches view and the coach will have a Offer job button

    Thank you!

    There will be coaching movement controlled by the AI, but it might need to be a little updated/refactored

    Speaking of coaches. 

     

    I just simmed a few seasons into the future to test. My Strength coach contract ran till 7/1/22 but he was still on my team in 2023? 

     

    When I go to the coaches page, I can go to unemployed and click on them but can we sign people here or hire/fire our coaches?

    Mine has to be Eastside Hockey Manager 2007, but a close second is DDSCB games. Would love to hear some off the wall recommendations in sports some others may not have heard of!

    Eastside Hockey Manager 2007 is my all-time favourite sports game/sim. 

     

    Other than that I enjoy Front Office Football.

    I've been playing DDSCF for the past couple of years and enjoy it.  Although I think my favorite is still Solecismic The College Years (even though it's pretty outdated now in terms of leagues).   I just downloaded CT Football Manager last night but haven't started playing yet.  I'm curious how it compares to DDSCF and The College Years?

    I would agree that The College Years is the best College Football experience, sure it doesn't look good (Front Office Footbal UI isn't great!) but the actual game is so detailed and in-depth you can't beat it!

    CT Football Manager looks to be shaping up to be a very good game though, it has the old 'Football Manager' feel to it (the game by SI Games) and the interface and UI are all nice and clean to use, just obviously needs to be more stable. 

    DDS, Now to be fair I have only ever played the demos of most of their titles bar the Golf one, but something just feels off, I don't like their UI style and the more I read about the College game the more issues seem to come up, like the lack of certain rules in the game.

    When you pick Prestige Mode it gives you 3 team offers, if you go back and then reload it you get 3 different team offers. Not a huge issue but if there are more than the initial 3 teams it might be better to show more options on the screen?

     

    Unless it's them 3 teams that are offering at that specific time and when I go back I'm reloading the game?

    I prefer to play as GM. I like to run my sports sims as business managements if possible and let my coaches do their thing. 

     

    If its hockey I may set the lines but I never do the coaching game to game. Sometimes for important games I'll view the game as if I'm 'in the GM box' watching it out live!

     

    I'm not a soccer fan but I really wish Football Manager would allow a GM mode for the MLS one day.
