Dont know if this would help you but ive been working on a simple transaction file for 19th century leagues. I am testing the 1871 season and by using as played schedules I am seeing players play almost exactly the same amount of games as real life. Stats are pretty close but you have to remember those were short seasons compared to today.
Anyway I have separate databases for each historical leagues rookies. I have logos organized so it will automatically change.
I edited the database so players will debut with their team. I woud like any advice if anyone would like to try it but they would have to follow some instructions since its important to follow the transactions and use the database I made. If you just copy the master file or the teams file it wont work.
