Historical Salaries

Bigdummie · 07-02-2008, 10:44 AM

I started the 1962 historical season, and once in the game, I can set factors for more realastic salaries, but some of the players earn way more than what was the normal salary. Is there a way to start a season with more accurate salaries? Sure this has been asked before, can't remember. Thanks for any advice

Under League setup, use the "Assign fictional player contracts" after changing the settings to your wishes.

Actually in the setup there is an option to set salaries for typical star players, rookies, ordinary players, etc. I think that is the best way to influence salaries league wide.

Thanks for the info, will give it a go, will the sim reset the higher salaries back after I start a game, or do I need to restart? Hope I'm clear on this, but maybe I need to expierement. Thanks again

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking here.

Carplos, did what you suggested, salaries much more in line for the time era. Thank You to you and Kurt B. for your help.
