I find my own ratings play better for me than those made up by the roster team so that is what I use. Markus has given the user the tools to do this for himself any time he wants and for any reason. You can't ask for more than that. Choose your own AlGoreRythum and salley forth old sot!!!!!!

Spritze,
Your responses intrigue me the most. But, I cannot find instructions on how to do what you suggest. In fact, somewhere in the forum I read that such manipulations couldn't be imported back into OOTP, which left me sort of confused on the point of generating them. I have also read that far from being easy "no one has been able to crack OOTP's database layout." (a rough quote from memory)
I would love to know how to do what you do. Please, tell me more (or, rather, tell me all).
I would also love to know how to start a sim before the most current season (before 2008 in OOTP 9, before 2009 in OOTP X). I want to be the general manager, to put together the team. It is seriously frustrating to start the sim on the day before the season starts, when all the other teams have maxed out their budgets, etc. Totally ties one's hands. Also, I want to sign Hoffman as a free agent.
Is there a way to start after a World Series (or whenever the "off season" begins), with the historical rosters and budgets of the time? I can only find how to set the year, not the date. If I set the year, I start out on 01/01, but there are no free agents.
I have thought about starting a sim earlier than I really wanted to play and letting it run to the appropriate date, but I think there would be a bunch of injuries and trades I would have to track down and manually undo. Is this correct?
Thanks for all your help.
