Hey Cavebutter... I noticed on the Depth Chart spreadsheet if you click on the depthchart_sp or depthchart_bp sheet there are two boxes titled "Pitching Ratings v
R".
I'm sure you meant to have one of the boxes titled "Pitching Ratings v
L", right?
Also, this is just nitpicking, but did you intentionally title the sheet "depthchart_bp" instead of "depthchart_rp"? Ya know because OOTP refers to non-starting pitchers as RP not BP. Before some wiseguy jumps on this, I'm well aware that some non-starters are CL, but that was not the point.
For some reason, the created spreadsheet: New York Yankees-02-24-1990_depth_chart.xlsx is an empty 89kb file. It has all of the charts and individual pages, but there are no player names and no data at all. I have properly entered in the directory where all of my data files are from the OOTP Export to csv files feature - C:\Users\Chris\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 21\saved_games\1981 Yankees OOTP 21.lg\import_export\csv. The csv files, such as players.csv, teams.csv, leagues.csv, etc. are all present and accounted for and they all contain the appropriate data for your application. I ran a test and I know your program will not proceed if you entered in the wrong directory because it can't find those files it needs. I'm then selecting 100 for MLB and 10 for NY Yankees and I receive the message "All set! Your depthchart is..." indicating all was well. As I said, it produces the spreadsheet, but there is nothing occupying any of the fields you created. You may have noticed that I ran this application of yours on in-game date 02/24/1990. Does it have anything to do with running it during the off-season?
Likewise, I am not any having success with the gameday workbook option. I launch the application and select the feature I want. It asks for the location of my data files, just like the Depth Chart option does. I enter it and the Small Database is successfully created and the program is connected to it - all good signs. Then I enter in 100 for MLB and 10 for the Yankees. Next, I need to paste the location of the file that was created when I exported the league schedule. I placed the file named ILN_BGN_G162_SL1_D2_T7_T7_SL2_D2_T6_T6.lsdl in the same directory (mentioned previously) with all of the csv files for simplicity. Your app mentions that if I don't provide the correct location of that schedule file it will quit and I'll be left pulling my hair out.
Of course, as soon as I press Enter something appears on the screen but its gone 1/10th of a second later when the app quits completely.
Does this gamebook workbook option need to be run on Day 1 of the regular season at the earliest or something? I use the up/down arrows that shows 6 dates with either game information or no game/All-Star Game, etc. I clicked the down arrow until I got to the opening week of my upcoming 1990 season. It shows me 6 days' worth of dates and opponents including the scheduled starting pitcher. Based on that, I stopped thinking that running this gameday workbook option during Preseason mattered at all, but maybe it does?
Any thoughts on this matter? If
anyone who's had success with this amazing tool feels like giving my files a shot on their system, let me know and I'll 7Zip the necessary files and post a download link. I don't mean to be so rude. I know everybody only has so much free time, why waste any of it on my problems? I hope I haven't offended Cavebutter or anyone who's read this post. Thank you.
