OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Stadium Ratings Creation-have a question

I'm working on modifying a stadium rating .xls file to add in altitude for creation. I ran Coors Field in one and this is what I recieved for ratings:

2B 3B RBA RHR LBA LHR
123 123 78 68 74 60

Reading an old Baseball Abstract, Bill James mentioned the Work of a Dick O'Brien and work he did on the Texas league. It seems in the 70's and early/mid 80's the stadiums were virtually identical, save for elevation (range from 20 ft above to 3700 ft above sea level). If anyone knows where I can find Texas League stats (already tried the league website) I could modify the stadium ratings file to include this information.

This, I think would be great for Fictional players who use MLB cities. If I use Coors, I don't want the rating built off of what the Rockies did there, I want it to be built off the stadium itself.
