I made a more efficient way. Though I'm probably going to add real AAGPBL players by hand.
The way I did it was to make a custom fnames.dat file. I took the 1000 most popular names from each decade from 1900 to 1990 and put them into a text file. I then had a friend write a small script to count the instances of each name and spit out a file with the names in alphabetical order with their frequency beside them. So it looks something like this:
Amy 8
Isabel 2
Sue 5
Just as in the real fnames file but different in the fact that it only goes up to 10 and well its all female names. I thought about changing the frequecys to go higher than 10 but decided that I'd rather have more unique names come up than to have a hundered Marys etc.
If anyone is interested in the file I'd be more than happy to post it in the mod's forum along with a bit on instructions on how to get them to work.
