[QUOTE="JPilky, post: 1027998, member: 84714"] All really useful info - will see what I can come up with this weekend. Had an idea of trying to automate the ratings by using specific metrics and then percentile ranking them to essentially see how that players tackling stats etc. performs against other players in that position/comp etc. That bit should be straightforward enough but honestly I think as a end result it will throw up a load of cases with fairly questionable ratings if I try to automate - rugbypass index is a good example of where using stats alone can cause some shockers. Think it will be good at least to use to tweak some ratings and interesting to compare some players. Also putting together a list of a few things I've noticed to correct (Ruan Ackermans age, space in Bernard Le Roux surname needed, Ollie Thorley hair colour is brown in game but is blonde, Zach mercers weight a bit low, some players such as Caleb Clarke and Faletau have Canada flag etc.) Happy to adjust the changes myself but ideally be adding these into a central mod to make it as good as possible for anyone who wants it. Only small things so not too important. Few players I picked out as lower than expected (e.g. Tomos Williams maybe one that sticks out to me being half welsh -Cardiff blues and likely when fit Wales' no.1 scrum half ahead of Gareth Davies/Rhys Webb/Kieran Hardy/Lloyd Williams, Josh Navidi another one - second most tackles in six nations so far this year just behind Tupuric, Matthieu Jailbert as well - current French 10 keeping Ntamack out the 10 shirt for now) Also had a go at some face design - pretty happy with some faces I made (head models and textures using GIMP and Blender). Annoying thing is the head models I made are .obj and need to be working with .o files. Found oedit to be seriously slow for the UV mapping bit to the point of unusable (and not luck converting to .o without corrupting it) so will see if I can get a virtual machine window XP and see if it runs better there.
