Total Newb Question

Wrathchild · 06-03-2009, 02:27 PM

I want to start very simply. I want to use the ABA Quick Start so that I don't have to design any logos or anything, but have it start in a different year, closer to the modern era (let's say 1975 or so). How do I change the starting year?

This is more complicated than it should be. Here are the steps.

Start the aba league.
Go up to game and click game setup
On the bottom right click -templates - save this world as a template
go back to the main screen
click start custom game
exit out of the wizard
click load template on the bottom left side
pick the aba league you just saved
on the top left you can change the starting year to wahetver you would like it to be
click start game
your all set

I hope that helps.

Thanks! I think that did the job, though I just want to make sure it creates team logos and stuff. It also is showing as New Game in the upper right. Did I do something wrong to not be able to give the game a name? I'll try it one more time to see if I missed something.

EDIT: Never mind. I found where to rename it from the Main Menu.
