Yeah, you're on the right track. If it's an issue with the .dat files, then we have a larger problem on our hands.

nutlaw-
i am back from vacation and ready to roll.
here is the latest skinny:
i have several recent backups of the 17 .dat files just prior to the crash that occured when i was trying to export some trannies. i have not only tried to fire the league up with the recent .dat files, but these slightly older ones, too.
what is happening now is that i am able to load up (without the folders, at present) the league just using the 17 .dat files. i can go in and tinker around a bit. but as soon as i access a team's home page or roster/pitching/etc., i get a crash.
i can load up a dummy new league and access these areas in the dummy league with no problems.
now, if there was some sort of ding on the .dat files of the most recent version, i can understand that. but how can a loading up of older .dat files result in an identical crash when attempting to access rosters, etc.? seems odd to me, as the older files should be pristine.
now, it seems pointless from where i am sitting to attempt to load the folders until this is figured out. since it is crashing no matter when the league's .dat files were saved, my guess is that it is not the .dat files. but that doesn't make sense either, considering how a new league doesn't show any problems like this.
another couple of things:
1. i still do get errors when trying to load the game with the folders in there, so that may still have to be tackled later on.
2. this one might not mean anything at all, but after a crash, if i go to load the league straight away, it will crash there. if i first load another league (which i have been doing as to make sure stuff works in a 'clean' environment) and then go to load the RIBC, it loads up with no problems.
i am very focused on getting the RIBC back up and going and will do whatever it takes on my end. i truly appreciate your patience on getting this resolved. i hope this thread helps others later on who experience this same type of issue.
