CubbyFan's 2009 MLB Roster Release Thread - Page 13

MB.Pelicans · 01-13-2009, 04:45 PM

So the extra leagues are still there I've read, is the Yankee history fixed?

CrunchyCon · 01-13-2009, 05:30 PM

These are great, Cubby! I just purchased OOTP for the first time and would not have done so had I not seen your rosters available. I really appreciate your time and efforts.

I am having a show-stopping issue with the new download, unfortunately. I don't know if this is the "ghost leagues" you mentioned, but in my first season, after the first-year player draft, I start getting messages like "Johnson City has an illegal number of players on the active roster! (0)" for AI-controlled minor league affiliates. If I add enough players to the named team, it spits out the same error message for another Rookie League team. Anyone else having similar issues?

Something strange is going on. I forced each team to sign what FAs they have signed in real life before I let the AI make roster changes--but when I go click the allow AI to make roster changes button, the AI releases every FA I sign. It's absurd!

CubbyFan23 · 01-13-2009, 08:52 PM

Perhaps try placing the players on the AAA affiliate, the only thing I can think of is that the players are an "extra" guy on the MLB team putting them over the limit, they're not on the 40 man roster, and so the computer releases them.

Yankees history isn't fixed, and the extra leagues are there until I get the file back from Markus.

deadringer -- good looking out on that testing, I kind of had a feeling that's how it was treating things.

Lastly, those 08 draftees are in here twice because they were in the draft pool for one of the "ghost" leagues. They'll disappear when Markus deletes them out, as will the duplicate coaches in the FA pool automatically. However, Melville, Cutter, Danks out of those that you mentioned are also on their respective team's real rosters in the game.

Also, after setting up and simming a month, ie, Jan, my team signed a FA, bradley????? Have set options for ml mgrs for roster moves ands lineups only, why is
AI makin moves>????

Make sure you delete the current manager (who is set as a commish) and create your own. If you're doing that, I'm not sure.

There will be after this next final release.

CubbyFan23 · 01-13-2009, 09:14 PM

Ack! Online league mode is on for some reason!

That would be why you can't make any moves, you can turn it off in league setup -- online options. I'll upload a fixed copy in a bit!

I think this is the case, testing it now.

CubbyFan23 · 01-14-2009, 12:48 AM

Throwing up a new file now with the online league turned off as well as a bit of a change to the financials to make arbitration results not so crazy and to knock down the lesser players to a bit more like what they are now.

Still left superstars high, so we should still get high signings for guys like Sabathia/Teix but hopefully the other less heralded players will be signing for less than they are now.

Sorry it seems like we always have one more release to go, but I think we really do this time (two at the most), and it's only January, so I think we're outpacing where we normally are.

ugen64 · 01-14-2009, 02:57 AM

a few more things I noticed:

- Casey Kotchman's fielding ratings are off
- The last 2 leagues in the list (Pioneer and Gulf Coast) have a starting date set in 2008; I don't know if this is a problem

CubbyFan23 · 01-14-2009, 02:59 AM

Send big files the easy way. Files too large for email attachments? No problem!

Updated file with new financials, online mode turned off, fixed AA schedules.

mikeastriker · 01-14-2009, 04:11 AM

Hey cubby do you have any idea how to delete jim smith as a manager because the edit manager tab from the last rosters is not there or maybe i missed it?

nm im dumb

killericon · 01-14-2009, 11:10 AM

The link appears to be broken.

Syxx34 · 01-14-2009, 12:06 PM

Can you let us know when Markus takes out the dead leagues? Im very intresting in starting a league but the dead leagues drive me crazy.

mgom27 · 01-14-2009, 03:23 PM

Maybe in your next update other Leagues,any who's Retired but not in the Hall yet on the Free-Agent Market,Ghost Leagues as real Leagues and so on.

killericon · 01-14-2009, 03:40 PM

Is anyone else getting a "[Team X, usually State College] Has an illegal number of players on the active roster!" error at 06-23-2009?

Everyone owes him a thank you I think, he actually already turned it around and sent it back over. Thanks to Markus, the dead leagues drove me nuts too.

When I get home tonight from work, I'll fix a few of the other random issues, finish up the White Sox, and throw a new file up again tonight, which will be 1.2.

Cubby did Markus also fix the Yankees history?

Thanks for all your hard work - this is great stuff.
