Ive imported a few leagues, most of them historical leagues import from Lahmans DB and had no problems.

I think the 1.02 patch was supposed to fix this, but make sure all teams are set to CPU in OOTP5 before import into ITP. Also, make sure your OOTP5 league is set to "Career".

Other than that, I havent seen any problems.

One word of advice: if you are going to use real rookies and you are creating a brand new league in OOTP5 first (one that hasn't had a rookie draft yet), simulate a full season in OOTP5 first, then "proceed to next season".

- This will import your first crop of rookies into OOTP5. After you do this, start ITP, create your player, then import the league. This will place your player in the ammy draft with that years real players.

- If you do not import rookies into OOPT5 before you import the league into ITP, ITP will create all fictional players for the first ammy draft, and you will not get the real guys until the first ITP season is over.

Another thing to remember with historical league imports. Most of the time, OOTP5 historical league cpu teams do not have a full minor league roster for all levels. If this is the case, ITP will create fictional players, and add them to the rosters, so you get a mix of real/fictional players. I havent really figured out a way around this yet
