How to do historical league?

Is there an online tutorial or something that shows how to do a historical league in OOTP? Thanks.

If you search around here (use the advanced search), you'll get some pretty comprehensive answers. it's probably in the manual, too (which can be downloaded).

Basically, just unzip the Lahman database into a directory, select "Create Historical League" in the game, and point it to that directory. Then select a year, change whatever settings you want, and go.

Thanks for the quick response.. whenever I try to start a historical league I get everything set up and when I hit the Import League button it says Path does not exist/Wrong version.. any ideas?

Make sure you're using the comma-delimited (CSV) version of the Lahman database - this one.

You know, I always forget that there's a FAQ. They should put it at the top.
