Some questions for those in the "KNOW"

I have posted this over at the BBSC (it will always be baseball sim central in my mind ) boards which I tend to visit a little more - but I am hoping that I might impose upon this board to get some insight on enjoying the game. Thank You


Here was my post:

Well I finally have the game and I am feeling a little lost trying to work my way around the different screens. I do have a few questions for those that have been playing the game for a little while now:

1. I see that when I start a game, I have a managers record of 0-0. Will this change as I go through the season? Is this only if I play out the games, or will it change if I just sim. I have noticed some confusion with the whole "am I running the team or not" with regards to Commish mode, etc.. I am not in Commish mode - I believe I am running just one team.

2. I d/l a historical quickstart that begins in 1901. I also d/l arod's database to use for the "future" seasons. My question is what files need to be in the database. It seems like there are multiples of the same name or type - batting, orig batting, regular batting, etc... Will this be a problem down the road or will the game know which files to use? Should I delete some of these or leave them all in the for the game to figure out?

3. With starting a new game - should I reset all players service time to 0? Does this matter in an historical .lg starting from 1901?

4. is there anything else that I need to be mindful of in trying to play historical baseball and trying to import "real" players?

Thanks for taking a look
