So if I read this correctly, you could change the ethnic text file as your game progressed through the decades, then push "import new names database", and have a new ethnic makeup for new players entering the draft?
The only problem with that, is that you have to manually change certain facegen created faces, right? At least that was my experience in OOTP11 when I tried to recreate the color line.
But assuming you were willing to change the ethnic text file (which is pretty easy) and then change certain players' pictures, I think that with adjustments to the "international players percentage" and with changes to the quality of different nations' baseball programs, you could replicate the ethnic makeup of historical MLB pretty well.
Is that basically what you do?
Thanks. I always play fictional-historical but I've never tried to get the ethnic makeup correct because it seemed too hard.
