Talking Legends League - Downloads Now Available

April 4, 2004 - "Updated" Re: Legends League EV4 Released

The Legends League - "Where The Past, Present, & Future Collide" - what a way to begin the 2004 baseball season!

Your may download the Legends League edited version 4 and its Logo/Stadium files here: Legends League download:

Please take the time to click on the VISITORS page and sign our guest book.

(Please note that I have corrected the "League Totals" in the Advance Setup Menu. This will render more balanced statistics between the pitcher and hitters. Of course, you can do your own fine tuning as well. You may want to adjust these numbers up or down by plus or minus 2% to 4% to achieve varying results. So, I apologize if you have to download and setup this file twice).

To lean more about the Legends League READ my many posts under the thread LEGENDS LEAGUE UPDATE. Since I was in a rush to get this posted, I have not made up any kind of a "Read Me" file to explain my madness in detail but will try to do the next time I get a chuck of time on my hands.

The Legends League has been over 10 months in the making and represents the most extensive OOTP league and roster set available. There are literally thousands of players included in the league from 1900 to 2003. And, in those rare cases where I overlooked a player, you can easily add more!

The Legends League is absolutely stunning in scope and detail. You will find all the teams and rosters very realistic for the time era in which the players played. Of course, its an all-time matchup of the greatest of the greats against one another. I have played many multiple seasons and the results are always surprising and seldomly the same.

The League comes with 36 pre-made all-time great teams complete with 40-man rosters and preset lineups and pitching rotations. Salaries are included too. All you have to do is sit back and start playing ball! Of course, you can make or create any roster's you want customized in no-time using Spanky's League Of Legends. Be sure to keep a backup copy of the orignial as a future resource tool.

Players are entered into the League with as follows: Mantle'59Y, Koufax'65D, or Bonds'98G. Thus if you also see Mantle'61Y or Koufax'65D. or Bonds'02G you must keep in mind that while they are the same player their stats are from different years.

Mantle'59Y is read as Mickey Mantle 1959 Yankees.

Please note that the 1913 New Jersey BlackSox are actually the 1913 NY Giants; Sacramento'02 is really the 2002 Oakland Athletics; Portland'02 is actually the 2002 Red Sox; Pasadena'96 is the 1996 Dodgers; St Louis'44 are the 1944 St. Louis Browns; Philadelphia'31 are the 1931 Philadelphia Athletics.

If you don't find your all-time favorite player in the starting lineup on any team, just check out the FREE AGENT pool. Chances are that he has not been assigned to any team. Yes, he's up for grabs!

Special "thanks" to Teflon & Blue Turf & Henry & other stadium designers for providing so many wonderful stadiums to use in the Legends League. Each team has their own unique stadium. (I did not have time to do much Stadium tweaking!).

Also, a BIG "thanks" to Markus for helping me fix an earlier indexing problem which almost put my project out of order. His wonderful response saved the league from folding. Lets just hope the Legends file works with OOTP6!

This is truly a labor of love and a League to "fight" over! This editied version is apporx 31.5 MB in size. In the near future I will post the larger "unedited" version which includes many more duplicates of the same players but from less stellar years - at least in my opinion.

So what are you waiting for? Grab some popcorn and play ball! When you visit our temporary site please click on the Visitors tab and sign our guestbook.

Let me know what you think!
