I mean Clemente, Lidle, J.R. Richard and others will disappear from the game when they're supposed to and I want the other guys to "survive" through their actual retirement year. I want all the other types of DL injuries, just not CEI. Thanks a million for your responses. Cheers.
-locate the file called injuries.txt
-save a backup copy of the file in case of an issue. Rename the backup to 'injuries copy.txt' or whatever else you like
-open injuries.txt in any simple text editor
-in each line, the fourth number is the 'Career Ending boolean'
-if you change, in each line, that number to '0', you will turn off CEIs completely
-save your changes to injuries.txt
-reload your game (no need to quit OOTP, but you need to reload your league) and you should be ready to go.

So, for example, the following line is found in injuries.txt:

120,450,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,1,torn rotator cuff,a torn rotator cuff,3

If you change the fourth number from '1' to '0' and leave the rest alone, you should have:

120,450,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,1,torn rotator cuff,a torn rotator cuff,3

Once you've done that, a torn rotator cuff will never be career ending.

There aren't all that many injuries in the file which have the potential to be career ending, so it shouldn't take too long to adjust your file in this way.
