I've tried using this (the converter for OOTP 22 on OOTP 23) to clean up the early history of the game, and although it works to some extent, I have a few questions because I can't seem to get certain things to happen. What I'm trying to do is have it so the 19th century World Series matchups between the National League and American Association are counted on the league history page. I can create a hypothetical matchup between the NL and AL team in 1904, have both teams show up as their respective league champions and have a World Series winner underlined, but I can't seem to get anything to show up during the 19th century. I've made the necessary changes to the Team file and the SeriesPost file (like changing any abbreviations for the AA to AL, and nothing. Not even the respective league champions. Am I overlooking something, or is this hard-coded for MLB pre-1901 and beyond the scope of what I'm trying to accomplish? Also, is it hard-coded that the league history must start in 1871? I know there's some data out there that can be used to piece together some history before 1871, but the game doesn't seem to recognize it. If it isn't hard-coded, how do I move the first year around? I'm thinking about using this to give a league history to some of the Indy leagues in one of my mods, but having a bunch of blank history between 1871 and the 1990s/2000s probably won't look that great.
