Hi, not new to OOTP, but I guess I am to the forums.

I had an issue with OOTP 11, where the mail section was corrupted. Everytime I clicked on "mail," it would crash the game to desktop.

In order to resolve this CTD, I decided to unlicensed the game, uninstall, and delete every single instance of OOTP, saving my league files in a back-up folder.

I reinstalled the game, and the license. I put my league files in the saved_games folder, and went to load the league. It wouldn't even begin. I went to load it as if it were an OOTP 10 v. league, and would start loading all files. When it got to the world.dat file, it crashed.

I did it twice, and there are two incident folders in the league file.

I uploaded the league file via ftp to the ftp.sigames.com site. Would it be OK if someone takes a look at the files and try to figure out what is going on? I've been doing this league now for about 4 years, since OOTP 9 (It actually started back in the Season Ticket days, but have since restarted 4 years ago.)

The name of the league is "Career 1876."

Thanks.
