Gun Formation Missing from Custom Playbook

★★★ Newbie

I have tried a few times now to make a custom playbook, but every time I try to use one of them in any mode, none of my shotgun plays appear. In fact, the formation itself does not appear. I've tried many different things to fix this, including using different base playbooks and different play call types. So far nothing has worked. Any solutions?

Can't attach any screenshots because I'm at work presently, but when I go to custom playbook a to edit etc. the plays and audibles are there, but once I choose the playbook in practice or play now there are no shotgun formations to choose.

Here's a video of it occurring with the Colts playbook. "Spider 2 Y Banana" is not in the playbook when I'm in a game:

In the video I'm creating the playbook, showing you the play in the menu, starting a game and showing you the play selection where the play is missing.

I have tried this in both "Play Now" and in an ongoing Offline Franchise.

 

How can custom playbooks still be broken?

MaddenDadNYG, 

Me too! I  created both custom offensive and defensive playbooks  for the Giants in CFM. I have done this countless times before. When I go to Open Practice or CFM games some of the formations do not appear Like GUN: Normal  Slot Y and formations like GUN Spread appear in name only. Additionally some of the actual plays like HB Blast in I formation change names to 23 Zone even though this play is NOT LISTED in the All Plays section. Thank you for your prompt attention in this matter.
