I got old fashioned names for all Caucasian players from the USA, but I was getting way too many American players with Hispanic, Asian, etc names for a league based in 1900.
OK, this is really stretching my expertise here, as I have not actually tried to mess around with the world_default.xml file in version 19. But if you go into the file and go down to line 84226 (if you're using Notepad++) you'll find the entry for the USA. Go to:
Code:
use_hardcoded_ml_player_origins="1"
That code controls whether the league you create has the game's default player origins. As you note, that default setting creates a bunch of Hispanic and Asian players and other nationalities that may not be appropriate for earlier eras in baseball history. Change the 1 to 0 in the code and see if that helps.
