Draft Order Util

thomamon · 08-25-2004, 01:22 PM

Anyone know how to get it to work?

I am at the draft and can not get it to work in my online league?

I edited the draft order, I hit save. Save the order.

I go into OOTP and it doesn't work, shows me the old draft order.

I go back into the draft editor and load it, it shows the way I want it.

What can I do to get it to work?

You might want to try over on the Mods board - it sounds like you did everything fine to me. I'm sure you did this fine, but I have to ask - you had closed out of OOTP before you opened up the editor and loaded the draft order, right?

Make sure the game is CLOSED when U do this.

and it only works for 1 round at a time I believe. You have to draft the round, then edit the next round.

Hey,

I did have the game closed. I was trying one round at a time. I did everything I thought I was supposed to.

I would exit the draft utility. Go into the ootp 6 directory and it didn't change.

I did wind up trying the Draft Utility for OOTP 5 and it worked fine.

Are you sure your using the new draft editor for ootp6 ?

Pierre did a new version in his utility suite for ootp6, you can download from http://www.liguemtl.com/download.html

thomamon · 08-26-2004, 10:24 AM

Yes, I downloaded the entire suite. Could not gret it to work as I said above.

Make sure you open the good ######.lg directory only
Than if you open the good one, you should see
the current fraft order of your league. If not, you are not
opening the good ###.lg directory.

Also, make sure in OOTP that you are on the first day of the draft and
also, closee OOTP before using it.

Press on the "SAVE" button, not the "Save Draft order button" (This one
is to store your selection in another dat file to be able to reload it on the
second round of the draft without re-doing everything)
