Hi all,

I've been on vacation with only intermittent internet access. Here are some responses.

On the StatsLab Admin screen, under Export Tracker settings, in the League Name field, enter vMLB.tar.gz, and StatsLab will use that extension rather than the old OOTP11 default of .lg.

The ones with "history" in the name are only needed every year. The rest of the ones specified in the read me are needed after every sim.

I can only answer the second part. You need to upload all SQL files needed ( the ones listed in the PDF) after every sim. Should only be 10 megs or so when zipped up. You need to run everything except for career metrics and player development and similarity scores after every sim. Run all 3 on the last day of the baseball year (before the end of the actual year)
No. Development should be run whenever you want to see that updated. Run Career Position, Park Factors, Season Metrics after every sim. The others are only needed at the end of the year. FWIW, Win Share can be run whenever, but don't really make sense until the season is completed.

Is this true? If so, are there other tools and utilities that mirror it?
StatsLab can't handle player ratings in a scouted league, however there are plenty of features in StatsLab you can still use. You can hide the ratings easily from the StatsLab admin page.

The path to your league HTML is incorrect in your StatsLab admin screen.

You can load the SQL files in any order after initial installation. By default, StatsLab loads them alphabetically.

Does your games.mysql.sql file have a line at the top to DROP the table and then to CREATE the table? If not, check those options in the OOTP12 SQL configuration. They're new to OOTP12.
