Couple of Quick Questions

[Tyso3]

Hi all, dont wanna spam other peoples threads with questions so i thought id post em all here.


1. Is there anyway to stop AI-Managers picking a weak team. E.g AI England/NZ will pick a 50 rating prop over 60/70's available
2. I know in the files there is a whole load of menu music but i only ever here 1 track and it repeats. Is there a fix for this?
3. Despite having a way better system then this game demands, i get black textures sometimes appearing on peoples haircuts for a second or two especially during cut scenes. any idea what this could be?
4. is there a way for my box kicks from SH after scrum to be more powerful/able to direct them. Currently just carrying them and kicking before the tackle.
5. Does the fitness stat also relate to how often they get injured?

Thanks all if anyone can answer this, be great. Also i play on the PC btw.

My thoughts from experience.

1. Is there anyway to stop AI-Managers picking a weak team. E.g AI England/NZ will pick a 50 rating prop over 60/70's available
No, but I have tailored every team in the game to be the strongest it can possibly be, this fixed a lot of these issues.

2. I know in the files there is a whole load of menu music but i only ever here 1 track and it repeats. Is there a fix for this?
No idea

3. Despite having a way better system then this game demands, i get black textures sometimes appearing on peoples haircuts for a second or two especially during cut scenes. any idea what this could be?
Have you adjusted the graphics in the settings or even the secondary launch.exe you get to adjust visuals etc?

4. is there a way for my box kicks from SH after scrum to be more powerful/able to direct them. Currently just carrying them and kicking before the tackle.
If you mean from a static breakdown and you press Yellow to box kick, then no. It'll automatically do that limp 10/12 metre kick which will always be caught by the sweeper. I press R1+L1 to pass to the guy sat in the pocket and I kick up field from the 10/FB.

5. Does the fitness stat also relate to how often they get injured?
I don't believe so, this is something that's not really showed any fruition in the game. It's usually just speed / acceleration etc that is a factor for in field factors. Fitness so far has made near zero difference.

Thanks all if anyone can answer this, be great. Also i play on the PC btw.

.

Myself and @colossss have spent loads and loads of hours working through the music, and the short answer is, no and probably won't be possible with the main menu music sadly. But, if you want a change I would recommend downloading this mod from @colossss
