Not sure if other settings/selections can affect how/if RAH works (didn't seem to in v12), but I generally have the defaults (when setting up a historical league using the wizard) except for the following (some of which may be defaults, some not sure):
- Auto adjust league strategy checked
- RAH unchecked, of course
- Miss season accdg to history unchecked
- Database path = default
- Recalc checked
- Recalc base = 3 years
- Double weight of current years checked
- Neutralized stats
- Remaining years of career
- Fielding = 3-year
- Pitching = 3-year
- Auto adjust modifiers checked
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

After doing further testing, it appears to be the historical transactions file that is the cause of this issue (and of the first issue described here:
http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...ml#post3610503). Apparently, if a player appeared in (for example) the 1966 season but did not appear in the 1967 season - either because he spent the year in the minors or retired - the OOTP v14 transaction file has the game release the player on 1/1/1967. The v12 transaction file did not do this, so the player - if RAH was left unchecked - would remain on the team's roster (generally)... I confirmed this by doing a test that was identical to the setup above, except I subbed in the v12 transactions file. Sure enough, Koufax and others played beyond their IRL retirement years.
