T&L is supported by Madden NFL(tm) 2002. The game will automatically detect if your card supports this feature and use it in-game.
If you have an AMD K7 processor (Athlon or Duron) with a nVidia Geforce2 video card and experience slow performance, you'll need to install the AGP Miniport Driver from AMD. Also get the updated IDE Bus Master Driver, and the AMD IRQ Driver.
If you are experiencing slow load times and running on Windows 2000, it is recommended that you reinstall the game using custom install with everything selected.
Madden NFL(tm) 2002 supports the MP3 music format. There is a folder named "music" in the Madden NFL 2002 directory where you installed the game on your hard drive. Simply place your MP3 files into this directory and they will play in Madden's front-end interface. To select the MP3 file that you want hear, go to the System Settings - Audio screen and toggle through the "Music Selection" until you find the MP3 you want to hear.
Coverage audibles allow you to change the logic of the corner backs at the line of scrimmage. To use coverage audibles, press button 4 before the ball is snapped. There are three levels of coverage audibles:
1) The first puts the corner backs into bump and run. (Jam the receiver at the line for tight coverage)
2) The second puts the corner backs into loose coverage. (Drop back 5-7 yards and play under the receiver)
3) The third puts the corner backs into the original play logic.
4) Cancels.
- Touch Passing(tm)
Touch Passing(tm) gives you the ability to lob or throw a bullet pass. With the Pass Icons up, lightly tap the pass button (1, 2, 3, 5, or 6 button) to do a lob pass, or hold the pass button (1, 2, 3, 5, or 6 button) down to do a bullet pass. Lob passes are good in single man-to-man coverage for deep passes. Bullet passes are good for short passes in the middle of the field or the flats.
- Man In Motion
Man In Motion is used on offense to change the formation shape and confuse the defense. While on offense at the line of scrimmage, press up and down to highlight the player you want to put in motion. Then press left or right on the D-Pad to send that receiver in motion.
- Hot Routes
Hot Routes are used to change the route that a receiver will run during a pass play. While on offense at the line of scrimmage, press button 4, then press the button of the receiver you want to change the route for. Then press up, down, left, or right to change that receiver's route.

- Frame Rate
Frame rate will vary depending on your system. To increase the frame rate, turn the system settings down. The lower the settings, the faster the frame rate will be. The high settings should only be used if your system is a Pentium III 500MHz or faster. Try turning these options down or off to increase performance:
1) Player Detail - This will make a big difference on any card.
2) Player Shadows - This will also make a big difference on any card.
3) Stadium Detail - Only use this setting if your card supports T&L.
4) Sideline Objects - This will make a big difference on any card and will make very little difference in the way the game looks.
- High Resolution Support
The option of 1024x768, 1280x960 and 1600x1200 resolutions should only be used on high-end systems. These settings require a great deal of resources. Only high-end systems are recommended with Direct3D and software acceleration for higher resolutions, anything less will result in poor performance. The first time the game runs, it will detect if your hardware is capable of these high resolutions, if not, the option will not be available to you in-game.
- 32-bit Color
Selecting 32-bit color will cause a huge performance decrease on older video cards. Use 16-bit color options if you find that you are getting slow frame rates or graphical problems. Graphical problems range from players not having textures to corrupted textures on in-game banners.
