Hmm wondering if you love the game as much as I do hey ? hehehe
Just wondering what your experiances are with PM..
I mean, I still play the game now.. the same exact game I started with 14 years ago! infact I played a few games this afternoon

hehe

Well it is a great game. No denying that - I do have a few niggles with it (no aftertouch / if you're injured you can't play) but I am only one season into it now after restarting - my little dude is the top scorer!

Got hammered by Arsenal (we won't go into that) while my guy was injured but overall I'm still enjoying it! Really forgot how fun this game can be! Be great to run it off a HD though - especially if it took advantage of the faster processor so when it's generating the teams at the beginning it's quicker!

To speed things up a little you could select ` fastest possible but maintain timing` option in the cpu tab

Macca · 10 August 2004, 19:51

I could - but this is going to be ran on a proper Amiga... hence the need for a HD install if possible (hate rumaging through disks).

I would also like a WHDload install for this game. I can't wait for it, really, I have fond memories of this one. Never got to play it since I got my first A1200.

"Hard Drive install ... cpu tabs.... "

:

Are you talking about PC emulators?

I have the original Amiga 500+ ...brought back from the land of the forgotten, just for Player Manager ... which I went on a crazy hunt around the world to buy again!!

Amazing game! The best on ANY platform to date.

This would be a good game to run off the harddrive. Kickoff and Kickoff 2 have been done why not player manager?

Galahad/FLT · 13 January 2005, 06:42

Because Player Manager takes a long time to playtest. Theres nothing tricky about it, copy protection is useless, game is buggy, but to playtest properly, you have to sit around whilst it generates its first game. Takes ages!

adgloride · 13 January 2005, 16:17

Any chance of a beta whdload for it then? Like the kickoff 2 one. Other people could playtest it then.

Eny- · 13 January 2005, 19:51

I would gladly test it

adgloride · 15 January 2005, 23:46

Just looking on http://www.whdload.de/
someone is at the moment writing a whdload for player manager. It it only 5% finished so hopefully it'll be ready soon.

stainy · 16 January 2005, 10:04

Hasn`t that been there AGES?? I remember seeing that there months and months ago I think

From the looks of this:

Player Manager (Anco), 5% complete 9.1.2005 JOTD

...it looks quite new

stainy · 16 January 2005, 18:58

Oh yeah hehe

Eny- · 16 January 2005, 20:44

Btw Galahad, did you had some feedback from the Kick Off 2 "beta testers" so you can finally release a final KO2 installer?

Galahad/FLT · 04 April 2005, 01:12

That updated date for Player Manager is a misnomer. When a WHDLoad author updates his listing for what installs he is doing, the date for all of them is updated. So in actuality, Player Manager might well have no progress whatsoever, but as soon as the listing is updated, all of that authors installs are updated to show the last date the list was modified.

Eny- · 08 August 2005, 21:05

Any news/update?

Yes there is... Sir Galahad is doing this right now!!

See the Kick Off Association website for more info:

The more BETA testing the better!
