Complete Linked / Skilled/Attributed teams **DOWNLOAD STEPS INCLUDED** - check 1st post for list

Wanted to know how have you rated skills for individual players? Can you share the guidelines you followed for doing so? If yes, do share it with us so we can try to normalise the top rated teams by using a similar process for rating players' skills.

Too be honest for some of the players I kind of guessed but for a lot of them I looked at their stats on cricinfo and used that as a basis for skills.

For eg. If someone averages above 30 for both bat and ball he seemed like a 3 helmet all rounder (hope that makes sense)for me.

If a batsmen averages 50 I gave him a 5.

But honestly speaking I really do think most of my skills were subjective. I am South African so I might have been more lenient when giving them skills

Faf does seem good! ;)

Thanks for uploading mumbai too.
 
Once patch#1 is out we will turn our attention to that.

btw Patch#1 has cleared one of the platforms, just waiting on the other one then it will go live, fingers crossed it's this week.

Ross, will you guys be adding more default teams to represent other test nation's domestic teams other than the big 3? Not sure if that will require a patch or you can do it through cricket academy. Also how about more updated roster? At least for international sides.

We can add "linkable" teams to the Cricket Academy that can be served up without a patch.
 
I'm still a bit unsure, is it best to replace all the skills with that of the downloaded versions or stick with the on disk ratings for linkable players? I've just been replacing everything so far, is there much difference?

I'm hoping that with time the best teams will be modified to have realistic attributes. Currently the attributes and skills are all over the shop.

Ive been working on the principle that if I get the teams from one creator that they will have consistency. Seems pretty good so far.

Yeah, that makes sense. I went with the "Get Best" option coz replacing teams from a user would have been more time consuming.
 
Another workaround is editing the attributes to what you think fits the best.

It feels like too many people (not necessarily anyone posting in this thread), feel like they are restricted to using exactly what Get Best delivers. There is nothing stopping anyone from editing anything they download to better suit their needs/wants. Kits, rosters, attributes...all can be edited after downloading via Get Best. If anything, Get Best does most of the leg work and if an individual sees the need, they can add the finishing touches to tailor towards their own experience.

And while I'm here....when do people want the Australian State rosters updated? There have already been some moves/delistings that I'm eager to get uploaded (North retired, Klinger to WA, Cosgrove to SA), but I'm not sure if it is jumping the gun?

The squads are usually announced around April-May, so I'd probably just wait until then.

Personally I'd be waiting until closer to next season to do a more comprehensive update (because that's when we'll know which new rookies are contracted) and let users swap/delete individual players as they happen.
That said, if you're keen then go for it - I can't see any reason why it'd bother people if you do several updates as news comes in.
