I don't think they're empty, players.dat is 24 MB, some of the others are only 4kb but those seem to be small files in a working league as well.

After looking harder, the scouting file in the working league is a .dat file, but in the nonworking league it was converted to a .txt file.

I have to think this is something with the way safari/my mac is unzipping files. When I download the league file, it shows up in my downloads, and it seems to be unzipped automatically by safari or some other program. Then I move the .lg folder into the saved games folder of ootp, and the .dat files ares still recognized as documents instead of unix executable files.

I'm stumped.
