Yes. I treid to start a new custom league today. No dice.

RPI-Fan · 04-22-2004, 10:54 PM

No, I'm saying - did you ever start a new league and then delete it by deleting the league folder? If so, try manually creating a new folder in your OOTP directory called LeagueName.lg (where LeagueName = the last league you may have started successfully).

Hell, even if you haven't deleted any leagues, try it. It worked for me when I had the EXACT same problem as you.

GoldenEagle · 04-22-2004, 10:56 PM

I did manually delete some league files. However, I do not remember the last name of the league i saved succesfully.

RPI-Fan · 04-22-2004, 11:01 PM

That's definitely your problem then, I think.

Re-installing the game would definitely correct the issue.

If that's not something you want to do, then try your best to remember the name of that league file. Or, at least try to just make a new gmae called "NewGame.lg".

But a re-install may be in order. Fortunately, that would surely correct the problem.

GoldenEagle · 04-22-2004, 11:37 PM

Why is that my fault? That is nothing but the developers fault. I should have freedom to remove/delete leagues at my own will if I so choose to without the game crashing.

Sorry if this came off the wrong way, but I can not see how this could be my fault.

Huckleberry · 04-22-2004, 11:43 PM

He didn't say it was your fault, did he?

By the way, does anyone else get a chuckle out of the available players for the draft report? You know, the draft "entrees"?

sorry to say it, but a game shouldn't be this sloppy in its sixth edition.

jbmagic · 04-23-2004, 12:13 AM

goldeneagle,

i found out if you delete the default league folder called career 2004.lg that comes with the game....ootp will crash alot....

never delete that league folder that comes with the game...its not your fault..ootp should of had a readme saying important dont delete that folder...

just unistall the game, delete ootp 6 folder and install ootp 6 again....and u will be ok...

thanks

Huckleberry · 04-23-2004, 12:15 AM

GE -

I'm pretty sure he meant that's your problem as in that's what's causing the game to crash. I don't see how the tone of his posts to you could possibly indicate his sentence should be interpreted negatively.

Maybe, maybe not. Kyle (RPI-Fan) and I are pretty good online friends, so I am sure he really meant nothing perosnal by it. What I think he meant was that it was not the programer's fault - which I was merely disputing.

Given the context of the post (i.e., someone being nice enough to try to help you), I think any reasonable human being would read that as, "I am pretty sure that what is causing the problem you are having is...".

It's a slang phrase - surely you've heard it before.

Poli · 04-23-2004, 07:04 AM

I'm not thrilled with the game at first glance either. Probably, honestly, the first game I haven't spent an hour with right off the bat.

The new interface seems 'weird' to me. I don't like the new text format, and would love to be able to change it. After I loaded the cbl roster set and the ballpark set as well, nearly all the players were located in the stands. Had a lot of fun fixing that, let me tell you. It's likely to be that way on every stadium, so I'll have to go in and fix that (I'll do so as I come to them).

Any hoo, I don't like cbl's roster set either. I'm a Cardinal fan, and started out with them. If you have the computer manage the lineup (which I do to see what they would suggest and the change to what I think), Jim Edmonds ends up in left field, Ray Lankford in center. Roger Cedeno and Reggie Sanders platoon in right field, while fifth outfielder So Taguchi is remarkably in a platoon with Marlon Anderson at second base. While the actual starting second baseman Tony Womack rides the bench. Bah.

Anyone know of a 'different' roster set that I could use?

Poli · 04-23-2004, 07:21 AM

dola, I also miss the A-E ratings.

Ksyrup · 04-23-2004, 08:21 AM

I hope to give the game an in-depth test this weekend. Right now, all I've done is set up a league and sim about 15 years of history. I'll probably sim at least another 50 years, then pick a team to run.

Seriously, the lineup you posted from CBL's roster set is a better lineup than the one the real Cardinals use. Dont let Tony fool you with his semi hot start. Take a look at his career stats where his career high in OPS is .702.

GrantDawg · 04-23-2004, 08:36 AM

Has anyone else noticed a problem with the computer constantly moving your rightfielder to left field (where his range is not as a good and his rifle arm is waisted) and wanting to put in much weaker hitter and fielder in right? (The computer also will not allow Chipper play in LF, but that is just wisdom

).

RPI-Fan · 04-23-2004, 09:55 AM

Gee whiz.

I freaking diagnose your problem, offer an explanation why it may have happened, and give a solution on how to fix it.

And what happens? Not only do I not get a thank you, I get accused of somehow defending OOTP and being a jerk.

I said I was sorry if it came out that way. I do not think your a jerk. I actually think you are pretty nice guy.

I got the impression that you were implying that it was my screw up that my OOTP did not work anymore. I am sorry if you meant different.

LionsFan10 · 04-23-2004, 12:41 PM

American League-Player of the Week:
CF Leon Beasley (ANA)!
He batted .464 in 28 AB, with 1 HR and 12 RBI.
National League-Player of the Week:
LF Daniel Shuck (ANA)!
He batted .480 in 25 AB, with 4 HR and 9 RBI.

Also, in the news report it reads ... "The Player of the Week Award in the American League goes to Anaheim's Leon Beasley, this time." Then, when it announces what should be the National League award it reads "The Player of the Week Award in the American League goes to Anaheim's Daniel Shuck this time."

Only, Danny is playing for the Braves

I looked at Shuck's report, he has not been traded released or put on waivers so as to confuse the computer, it just decided it had a bias for the Anaheim Angels.

Just thought I'd point this out, first time I've seen it so far.

hukarez · 04-23-2004, 12:46 PM

I was going to type up a list of errors that I've seen in the PbP and News report...but my browser refreshed, and I completely lost a good page of details for the folks at OOTPDevelopments to check out.

I'm sure QuikSand would have a heart attack if he saw some of the stories in the 'news' section of the game.

There's an easier way to realign the stadiums.

Go to League Setup, Edit Ballpark, Convert Coordinates to OOTP6 (bottom right), Test Coordinates (to see if they are now realigned), if they are then click assign these coordinates to all ballparks.

Every ballpark pic should now fit correctly.

I noticed this same problem and posted it in OOTP's troubleshooting forum about 3-4 days ago. Check topics I started over there for a link

I have finished another season and the results are very close, I am going to sim through 2014, 5 years after import in both leagues and do another full compare.

Results from second year are:

Fool who? Sweeping the Astros at home is just a semi-hot start huh? I'm not a LaRussa fan, but if he can manage like he did last night, I may start to like him.

I meant Tony Womack NOT Tony Larussa. That should have been obvious since I dont see how posting he had a .702 career high OPS would be relevant for Larussa

What was getting swept at home by the Astros? A distant memory?

For the record, I predicted a St. Louis division title this year.

No sir, and the fact they haven't been good at home bothers me, but I'm like you in thinking this team may be ok this year.... or not - LaRussa is at the helm.

HighandOutside · 04-23-2004, 07:00 PM

There is talk about the "socialist" tendencies of computer GMs on the OOTP board. In short, they are annoyed that the CPU GM's won't spend their money and therefore don't pick up what they need. I run a very slow, play every game league, so I was wondering if any of you had noticed this problem...

Ksyrup · 04-24-2004, 07:10 AM

The starting pitcher issue is fixed, but relievers are still getting into a tad too many games. Not a huge issue, but I don't think we'll ever see guys pitching 105-110 games per season on a regular basis. My guess is these are relievers with a high endurance rating who, instead of being used as long relievers, are pitching one inning a game and have plenty of endurance left to pitch multiple back-to-back games.

Also, browsing through the lists on the Almanac page, I came across this in the No-Hitters list:

6/23/2014, Samuel Caldera (LV), 14 K, 0 BB (PERFECT GAME!)
7/2/2014, Samuel Caldera (LV), 17 K, 0 BB (PERFECT GAME!)
8/17/2014, Daniel Alvarez (ORL), 9 K, 3 BB
8/30/2014, Samuel Caldera (LV), 14 K, 5 BB

Not a bad 2-month run. In case you're wondering, in his start between the 2 perfect games, he pitched 5 shutout innings, giving up 4 hits.

FBPro · 04-24-2004, 07:21 AM

MizzouRah · 04-24-2004, 10:27 PM

Just saw my first tonight for any version of ootp (I'm using v5).

The Detroit Tigers took a 22yr old 3B 1st overall in the draft and he's starting right away. This far in 27 games, he has a 0.318 BA, 5 HR's and 13 RBI's. His talent ratings are GOOD\BRILLANT\BRILLANT.

Anyone see something like this before?

Todd

chrisj · 04-24-2004, 10:51 PM

For the computer? Or in general?

In an online league I'm in, by 1st round/4th overall pick is starting. At the age of 19, in his first pro season, he is my starting first baseman. After 74 games he is .256/.324/.441 (all above league average) with 12 HR and 47 RBI.

Suicane75 · 04-25-2004, 03:03 AM

Ok, I set up a 12 team league, im running every team. I set it to human manage all teams and went ahead and did my full league dispersal draft, now when i go to the team pages the lineups are already filled and players have been moved around the minor leagues, very damn annoying. I have finances, coaches and simulate minor league all disabled and they have been since the league started. Is the computer gonna randomly move people around on me even though I have control of all teams?

FBPro · 04-25-2004, 05:24 AM

I'm trying to sim a league starting in 1902 but I'm running into a problem getting realistic HR totals out of Ruth. He imported with a 90 contact, 100 Power, and 100 eye, but so far he has 61 total HR and a .265 career avg in 4 seasons, and he hasn't had any injuries.

How is it I adjust the league totals to get some decent numbers out him?

LionsFan10 High School Varsity Join Date: Dec 2000 Location: Detroit, MI, U.S.A	Small something I've noticed ... American League-Player of the Week: CF Leon Beasley (ANA)! He batted .464 in 28 AB, with 1 HR and 12 RBI. National League-Player of the Week: LF Daniel Shuck (ANA)! He batted .480 in 25 AB, with 4 HR and 9 RBI. Also, in the news report it reads ... "The Player of the Week Award in the American League goes to Anaheim's Leon Beasley, this time." Then, when it announces what should be the National League award it reads "The Player of the Week Award in the American League goes to Anaheim's Daniel Shuck this time." Only, Danny is playing for the Braves I looked at Shuck's report, he has not been traded released or put on waivers so as to confuse the computer, it just decided it had a bias for the Anaheim Angels. Just thought I'd point this out, first time I've seen it so far. __________________ It's true, it's true.

I'm sure QuikSand would have a heart attack if he saw some of the stories in the 'news' section of the game. __________________ ...what we have here is a man who looks like Tarzan, but fights like Jane!

Danny Head Coach Join Date: Jul 2001	Maybe Markus is trying to replicate the same mistakes seen from real sports writers. Just like this article I read today http://www.cbc.ca/pcgi-bin/templates...a-czechs040422 Martin Straka plays for the Kings, not Penguins. Last edited by Danny : 04-23-2004 at 02:56 PM.

thomamon n00b Join Date: Apr 2004	I have finished another season and the results are very close, I am going to sim through 2014, 5 years after import in both leagues and do another full compare. Results from second year are: http://www.primetimeheat.com/2011seascomp.htm Should I continue to post here?

Danny Head Coach Join Date: Jul 2001	I meant Tony Womack NOT Tony Larussa. That should have been obvious since I dont see how posting he had a .702 career high OPS would be relevant for Larussa .

HighandOutside n00b Join Date: Apr 2004	There is talk about the "socialist" tendencies of computer GMs on the OOTP board. In short, they are annoyed that the CPU GM's won't spend their money and therefore don't pick up what they need. I run a very slow, play every game league, so I was wondering if any of you had noticed this problem...

Ksyrup This guy has posted so much, his fingers are about to fall off. Join Date: Nov 2000 Location: In Absentia	The starting pitcher issue is fixed, but relievers are still getting into a tad too many games. Not a huge issue, but I don't think we'll ever see guys pitching 105-110 games per season on a regular basis. My guess is these are relievers with a high endurance rating who, instead of being used as long relievers, are pitching one inning a game and have plenty of endurance left to pitch multiple back-to-back games. Also, browsing through the lists on the Almanac page, I came across this in the No-Hitters list: 6/23/2014, Samuel Caldera (LV), 14 K, 0 BB (PERFECT GAME!) 7/2/2014, Samuel Caldera (LV), 17 K, 0 BB (PERFECT GAME!) 8/17/2014, Daniel Alvarez (ORL), 9 K, 3 BB 8/30/2014, Samuel Caldera (LV), 14 K, 5 BB Not a bad 2-month run. In case you're wondering, in his start between the 2 perfect games, he pitched 5 shutout innings, giving up 4 hits. __________________ M's pitcher Miguel Batista: "Now, I feel like I've had everything. I've talked pitching with Sandy Koufax, had Kenny G play for me. Maybe if I could have an interview with God, then I'd be served. I'd be complete." Last edited by Ksyrup : 04-24-2004 at 07:11 AM.

MizzouRah Hall Of Famer Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: Troy, Mo	Just saw my first tonight for any version of ootp (I'm using v5). The Detroit Tigers took a 22yr old 3B 1st overall in the draft and he's starting right away. This far in 27 games, he has a 0.318 BA, 5 HR's and 13 RBI's. His talent ratings are GOOD\BRILLANT\BRILLANT. Anyone see something like this before? Todd

In an online league I'm in, by 1st round/4th overall pick is starting. At the age of 19, in his first pro season, he is my starting first baseman. After 74 games he is .256/.324/.441 (all above league average) with 12 HR and 47 RBI. http://jobl.end-on-end.com/FTP/p593.html

Suicane75 Coordinator Join Date: Sep 2003 Location: NJ	Ok, I set up a 12 team league, im running every team. I set it to human manage all teams and went ahead and did my full league dispersal draft, now when i go to the team pages the lineups are already filled and players have been moved around the minor leagues, very damn annoying. I have finances, coaches and simulate minor league all disabled and they have been since the league started. Is the computer gonna randomly move people around on me even though I have control of all teams?

Bearcat729 College Benchwarmer Join Date: Oct 2000 Location: Cincinnati, Ohio	I'm trying to sim a league starting in 1902 but I'm running into a problem getting realistic HR totals out of Ruth. He imported with a 90 contact, 100 Power, and 100 eye, but so far he has 61 total HR and a .265 career avg in 4 seasons, and he hasn't had any injuries. How is it I adjust the league totals to get some decent numbers out him?
