Hiya guys, I've been playing since OOTP 17. For a new game, I wanted to do something different.

I decided to take over the Reds starting in actual 2015, in a fresh game, using OOTP 19. I set the start year to 2015, and for the game to import 2015 financial info for MLB... and yet this is what I've got going on: https://imgur.com/a/hNm0x8K

In the 4th screenshot, in the league settings, you can see that it says 2018 for historical info. I picked 2015 in the only 1 or 2 spots it let me put in a year. I did Advanced setup and went through every page.

What did I do wrong? There's no point in starting in 2015 as the Reds if it's using 2018 contract info, but with 2015 player ages. I'm essentially losing 3 years on everybody in that case... that's not right.

What are the steps I need to take during game creation to get the actual 2015 Reds, with the actual 2015 financials and contract info?
