5) Start a new game and select "RealCoaches" under the dropdown box next to "Use existing coach file"

I followed these instructions as best I could, but I still can't get it to work. When I click on "Use existing coach file", I still get "no" as the only choice. I am running Windows 7, and version 2.2.29 of the game. When the folder opens, it is a windows excel spreadsheet. I am running microsoft office 2007, if that makes a difference. Any insight would help a ton.

Yarghaz,

Did you fix those two nicknames from my post above?.

Are you sure you have it in the correct folder?

The file can only be used when starting up a brand new career.

You can't import it into an existing career.

Yes. I tried to install it both ways (with and without the "nicknames"). I click on Coach Files, and notice that there are no files listed under available files. I click on Open Folder, and see that the RealCoaches.cf2(1) file is there. When I start a new game, I only have the 'no' option available when I click on the Use existing coach file dropdown menu.

I notice that on the Player files that a button exists that says 'import csv', which I click on and the RealCoaches.cf2(1) file shows up. When I click on 'import', I get a "Run-time error '11': Division by zero error.

I have it in the:

Users > Public > Public Documents > GDS > Fast Break College Basketball 2010 > datafiles

folder. Is this correct?

"RealCoaches.cf2(1)"

That's your issue right there. The (1) at the end of the file name.

Change that to read:
RealCoaches.cf2.csv

Looks like you have the global setting for showing file extensions turned off with your OS. Which isn't a problem.

In your case, you would just need to delete the (1) after the file name, so the file name is just "RealCoaches.cf2". Then make sure it's still a csv file extension, and you should be good to go.

If you want to rename the file, only the "RealCoaches" part can be changed. Still has to have the ".cf2.csv" at the end. Althou, the (1) came from your OS or email adding that on it's own.

Thanks. I really appreciate it!

Can some repost this file. Megaupload is no longer accessible. Thanks

Yes can someone please upload this file. I am playing the demo and I would like to try the game out with real coaches if possible.

I have this installed in my current game but I can't find the download file anywhere on my computer. I guess I deleted it. If anyone knows of any way I could export the file, or somehow get it back to the file I downloaded before I installed it, then I would be happy to upload it.
