The method I posted will keep all that history in tact and the steps I posted way back in my original response really does not take any longer than renaming the teams, updating uniforms and then changing the ballparks....and you also do not have to regenerate any schedules because the league structures did not change, only the affiliations did. I have hoped that affiliate contracts would be added at some point so we can emulate real affiliate changes.
But as I said before....it's your game...play it how you want....I am a little more OCD than others  |
I get where you are coming from
For what it's worth when you look at the league history if Nashville wins a championship in 2006 and then moves to Colorado Springs and wins a title in 2012 it will still be listed as Nashville winning the title in '06 and CS a title in '12. I know that's not what you care about in your league but I mention it for those reading this and wondering how that works out.
With this way it really is only making a name change and a stadium change. Unis, caps, logos, schedule, players, coaches, managers etc all make the transition without having to do a thing. Of course it's always possible for a glitch to come up and you may have to go to the team tab and regrab the graphics file but that would be very rare.
It is good to have both ways available
