These templates can be found in ootp's world_templates folder.
Once you've got everything the way you want...Save it as a quickstart.
Then go to the Game Settings/Database screen and run the purge tool. It's in the Available Options dropdown on the right.
This will delete all the stuff you deleted in game. Even though you delete things in-game, it doesn't get deleted in the database and can mysteriously reappear later on...When done, check everything to make sure it's ok. If so, then it's safe to save your game and create the final template and the last quickstart.
Reason for both template saves and quickstart saves is that templates only saves the basic setup. Quickstarts save everything photos, logos, unis, etc. templates don't.
I'm currently scraping the rest of all College data, so I have some time to help if you bare with me. |
Bigrod, thank you so much for your help... I'll take your advice on templates and quickstarts.
Do you know anything about the Database setup questions in my first post in the thread?
Should I just use the default setting shown on the screenshot?
I will not use any of the other professional leagues or any foreign leagues in the database... will "Compact: less cities will be loaded"... will that cut down on computer clutter at all?
