Followup on template problems
http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...-properly.html
Sorry about not responding, but I didn't get any OOTP time in during the last week and so I didn't have time to run tests. I patched the game to 9.1.2 and deleted off my computer a template that I had downloaded and tried to use in game (although I had already deleted it from the universe setup and it was still having this problem.) And still, the problem continues. I had thought it was working, because I was able to change the names of the leagues I had in the template with no problem. Now though, I added a league, and the problem is recurring, but only for the league that I added (a minor league for the Japanese standard league). One thing, not sure if it's related or not, but I added this league after I tried to close the game. (For some reason, the game isn't closing until I personally use the task manager to shut down the .exe.) Again, that could be a special problem of its own, but for the purposes of full disclosure, just letting you know everything I did up until the point I repeated the bug. I tried to recreate this in a different template but have not had the problem occur. I have the template in question still, but I think I'm going to move it to see if it's causing the other problems I have with OOTP. |

So do you want to continue to follow up on this, or are you doing fine with your new files/template?

The new template isn't for gaming purposes or saved in anyway. It was just a new template trying to see if the problem was having too many leagues. It doesn't appear to be that either. To be honest though, I'm at a loss. Maybe the downloaded template corrupted it (even though I deleted all the leagues from that template before resaving) and that's the problem, but I really have no idea. Still, if there's no obvious solution, I guess I can re-start (aaugh) and it wouldn't be that big a deal, but I figured it's something you guys would want to know about, just in case it ends up not being an isolated problem.

Alright, thanks. I haven't heard of this problem anywhere else, so I'm hoping that something peculiar happened to your particular files.
Admittedly, I don't like templates at all and would encourage people not to use them whatsoever. They are just unnecessary complication and cause unnecessary problems. Why not just create a league and make copies of it if you want to go back to the start of the league at a later time? Is there anything else that we can help you with? |

As far as the templates go, I was using them only to create the league in stages, in case my computer crashed or something. Of course, the final one went caput, but oh well. |

Also, they allow you to combine leagues later on. |

Fair enough. I'm still not a fan.
