I am trying to create an authentic historical league. I can not get it to work in either fictional or historical customizations.

I turn off historical evolution so I can manually add teams and delete teams that folded from 1871 to 1901. But in historical I am unable to add new leagues to the game, especially the Negro Leagues in 1920. I turn on historic evolution of game and I'm able to get Negro Leagues, but I lose all the historic minor league teams I have created that were in play in 1919/20. PCL started play in 1903, IL in 1884, Texas League in 1902. The game only imports the minor leagues only when they become affiliated with Major League clubs. I do not want that. But in order to have Negro Leagues, I need to turn on historic evolution and in order for them to appear, but then my minors disappear. In ficitional league, I can not have a color barrier or add Negro League teams as the box is not available.

How do I have all minor league teams available in 1920 and the Negro Leagues and the National Association, American Association and Major Legaue Baseball in the same save. Is there a way to import leagues? This is really frustrating me. I've been trying to figure this out for the last 2 weeks.

Does anyone have any ideas how to make this work?

Does anyone know why in a customized universe I am unable to recreate the historical evolution of the game with all minor league teams, Negro League teams, and teams which folded?
