Saved Quickstart games pooched

BlackIce · 10-02-2013, 12:22 AM

I went ahead and edited some players and lineups and saved it as a quickstart only to load up my saved game and see that every player in the league is named "Jim Unknown" ...

Is anyone else having this problem ?

You aren't the only one having this issue. Previous to this patch, I couldn't save any edited game as a quickstart game. Now I can, but all the players are shown as "unknown". Curiously, all the other data editing seems to be fine (although useless without the player names). I have tried copying my saved game data files over the default "my quickstart game" data files, and this seems to work (at least you can start a new season from that quickstart game). But that quickstart game crashes around November 1 the first season. So, at this point I can't advance at all with my significantly edited league. Hopefully this can be looked at.

I went ahead thinking this feature was implemented and assigned players to various positions to make the teams accurate instead of 8 left wingers, 3 centers and 1 Right wingers. Edited some stats to keep some players on the clubs specifically the tougher players... saved.. reloaded and Joe Unknown played for every team in the league! lmao ... yeah hopefully this is fixed soon.

Malte fixed this yesterday, so it'll be in the next patch.
