Historical players in fictional leagues?

alkeiper · 06-15-2021, 07:04 PM

The entry menu for a fictional league says players are “real, historical or entirely fictional.” Is there a method to add historical players to fictional leagues?

No, the text is from the desktiop version, we still need to adjust it, sorry.

This will only work when you actually own the historical season in question.

Thanks. Just wanted to make sure that also wasn't something left in by accident.

1 question do the season(s) need to be purchased before the save file is created for it to come in effect?

I'm pretty sure you just have to purchase them before the draft in your league. Normally the historical draft class is imported during September of your league year, and if that fails it will try again on draft day

Thank you for the clarification. I’m digging in and this port is outstanding!

You have to hit advanced view. Also may not be available in all game types.

Were you doing a custom game? When I go to advanced/ options I do not see the screen you posted

Hey Markus I found the setting that seems like random debut, I have all the historical seasons but I am only getting fictional players. Is there a way to do an rdl? Otherwise congrats on the release. Worth the wait for sure. The OOTP team has to come back to NY soon for beers and you need to make the trip this time.
