Madden Career Toolkit 1.1 Release Notes

1.1 doesn't have as many new features as I had planned, but several users stumbled upon the preseason bug, so I wanted to release the fix ASAP.

Additions

  • Added an uninstaller that will remove MADCAT from your database. This should help debugging and installing new versions immensely. No more bugging your sysadmin!
  • Added an injury report in injuries.php Simply takes the injury status from the database to generate a list of players currently listed as injured.
  • Added a salary cap data screen in cap.php Data can be viewed as raw numbers, or as a graph.
  • Added initial support for specifying a section to display on team pages. As the format of team pages is not finalized, I haven't really tweaked this all that much.

Tweaks

  • Added height and weight to rookies and prospects pages.
  • If you load the rookies.php page for the first year of your franchise, it will not list the entire league roster now. Instead, it outputs a message indicating that the rookie listing is useless in year one.
  • Made some tweaks to various SQL queries, as suggested by topher.
  • Did my best to go through each file and organize the code as clearly and cleanly as possible (didn't make nearly as many changes as I expected)
  • Made some small changes to the player pages (as inspired by Mardagg's modifications)

Bugs Fixed

  • Preseason logs were not loaded correctly because of only having 4 games per team.
  • Gamecenter would not display any logs from the Super Bowl!
  • Under certain situations, Gamecenter would not display week 1
  • Madden Career Tooolkit was misspelled in simple_template.html
  • Fixed a few typos in the documentation

Files Modified

If you do a lot of work customizing MADCAT, these are the only files you'll need to replace with the new versions.
  • For 1.1, every file has some amount of modification
