"Historical Fictional" league bug.

Bishop · 04-01-2007, 09:29 PM

Ok. Trying to create a complete 'historical fictional' league history.

Problem ends up that the league stats get screwed up Single Season HR record doesn't get above 30. The game crashes and closes upon going to Game Setup/League Setup/Strategy tab.

Attached is a screen shot of the 1976 League Batting Leader Boards. Note the HR totals and the Stolen Base totals.

I have duplicated this on more than one league.

Here's what I did, for those of you following along at home.

Start by using advanced mode, no wizard. Add Historical Major League, season start year 1901. Hold Draft, 0 foreigner percentage (which is another issue I'll touch on in a moment), no Free Agency, trades w/other major leagues & free agents from other leagues may be signed unchecked. No coaches or scouts, no logs or box scores. Uncheck automaticall import historical rookies

Start game.

Game setup/functions, randomize playe names, erase service time of all players, erase major league career stats of all players, erase all career stats of all players.

Auto sim until 1977, check your career leaderboards, and last years leader boards. Should have very few HRs, and high avg.

Go to Game Setup/League Setup, click the strategy tab, and poof. game goes away.

I can zip up leagues if need be, send one or both.

This has been reported and Markus claims it is fixed for the patch. I haven't been able to verify that.
