Football is 100% Stat Crew Legacy compatible

August 28, 2012   by Serge Knystautas

PrestoSports Stats Entry and the PrestoSports Network can now read and write football packed files, making our software 100% compatible with every Stat Crew Legacy sport with in-game statistics. This has been an exciting journey over the past two years, and we always knew that compatibility was a key feature to free everyone from DOS-based statistics.

We know that you need to do more than a one-time transfer of your data from Stat Crew Legacy to another stats entry software product. We believe that the market is about to become fractured as some people try Next Gen, some use us, some may use DakStats, and a large number will continue to use Legacy for many years.

When we say we're 100% compatible with Stat Crew Legacy, we mean that:

  • All data is transferred in both directions, including play-by-play.
  • It works for both in-game and scoresheet entry.
  • It works even if you balanced stats.
  • You can stat a game in Legacy, upload it into PrestoSports Stats Entry, and you'll see everything.
  • You can stat a game in PrestoSports Stats Entry, download it into Legacy, and you'll see everything.

The test we've been using is entering statistics into Stat Crew Legacy; uploading the packed file into PrestoSports Stats Entry; editing some stats; downloading the packed file into Legacy; and confirming that 100% of the data is there and accurate.

We're very excited to have crossed this milestone, since matching Stat Crew Legacy has been our first key goal. Now that we've finished this, we can start turning to the future to make stats entry better than it's ever been before. Ideas welcome!
