Spritze, I found your response at the end of this thread that says the Color Barrier setting is "about halfway down the left side" of the League\Rules, but I don't see this in my game.

I created a fictional league with the express purpose of importing the historical database in a "parallel league" (following the step-by-step instructions of another forum members post). I really wanted to see the full database membership (settings were made to include Import Real Minor Leagues (1915+).

However, when I look at the League\Rules page of either my fictional league (nicknamed GBL) or the historical import league (which is, by default, MLB), I do not find this setting...and none of the Negro Leagues players were included in the historical database import. Please see the attached screen shot of my League Settings from MLB in OOTP 18.

What am I missing? Oh, and a search of the online manual for "color barrier" reveals nothing; it only lists links where the word "color" appears...not very helpful.

Thanks in advance for any further clarification you can provide.
