Wrong Country - Page 8

OutS|der · 07-23-2011, 12:51 PM

anyone ever come up with a fix for this?
it's still affecting any and all leagues i import

koohead · 07-26-2011, 04:46 PM

Nope. but if it means anything to anyone, I just exported the World data to an xml and see that the states are under the wrong country. So it's all goofed up in the database...not an application reading from the database problem.

I think I found the problem! At least it fixed the problems with importing OutSiders OOTP 11 league.

Next patch will come soon!

woot! this is great news! thanks for the update.

neojonas · 07-27-2011, 03:17 PM

Awesome! Will this fix leagues that have already been imported into 12 or only new imports?

OutS|der · 08-05-2011, 10:35 AM

i'd just like to update this and stat as of the latest patch 12.3.22 this problem is still happening.

i'd also like to bump this thread up so this problem doesn't get overlooked while people deal with things like scouting and waiver waire complaints.

i don't know what was done to have it claimed this problem was fixed but it isn't fixed and still happens with every single league i import.

i'd like to state again THIS HAPPENS WITH EVERY LEAGUE I IMPORT, custom or the quickstarts included in the game so it must be something with the new version.

i'm not going to ask for a refund untill the last patch in september but i just hope i'd still be able to get one then because i'm sorry but this is unplayable for me so i go back to waiting and playing OOTP11. If i didn't preorder 12 i would of asked for a refund a long time ago but for the sake of $10 i'll wait a little bit longer. but not very long

boshk · 08-05-2011, 11:22 AM

i would just be happy if we could fix the problem ourselves by exporting the world.dat and reimporting it after its fixed.

koohead · 08-30-2011, 05:21 PM

*Disclaimer...In no way do I suggest this will work for everyone, nor is it even feasible in some cases, so sorry if you find my suggestion preposterous*

I think I was able to resolve this over the weekend by essentially resetting my world. Here were the steps I took:
1. Made a backup

2. Released all players in all leagues to the FA pool
3. Deleted all FA's and Retired players
4. Erased league history
5. created a template of my world structure
6. Created a new fictional league, using the template
7. Filled teams with fictional players

spot checked some of the countries that were messed up before and they are now correct. looked at about 25 teams over all of the leagues and confirmed they have correct city/country pairs. Yes, I had to lose my world that had 100 years of history that I simmed in OOTP11...but oh well.

OutS|der · 08-31-2011, 01:14 AM

if the solution is to blow up your league, delete history and all players and so on. isn't really a solution, why not just recreate your league in 12, why import in the first place.

The whole point of being able to import is not to lose your world so i think we need another solution.

koohead · 08-31-2011, 01:59 AM

because it saved me the time to recreate all the teams, cities, minor league affiliates, stadium names, cities, etc for MLB, full minors, and 5 international leagues.

Like I said..this might not be a solution for all. just letting everyone know what seemed to work for me.

Andreas Raht · 08-31-2011, 03:19 AM

I hope that patch #4 fixes the problem where a part of the cities of a nation get assigned to the wrong states during import, please try that version.
We will definitely add a feature to add/delete/edit states and cities in patch #5 or in a later patch, so you will be able to edit the states.

Please note, that OOTP 12 does NOT use the states (formerly called "regions" in OOTP 11) in any way. Currently, there are no features at all that depend on the states. They are purely cosmetic. So I really wonder why you would prefer to start a fresh game just to have correct states

OutS|der · 08-31-2011, 11:03 AM

am glad to hear of a new patch and am hopfull it will be fixed.

It may be purley cosmtic but it ruins it for me when i see the Toronto blue jays of islamasbad or where ever. I'm canadian so this hurts, i never knew you felt about canada like this

We may not know what summer is or running water and have to deal with polar bear attacks but we have feelings up here so please fix the canada hate

all joking aside it just takes away from the game for me and as to creating a whole new game is because i fear that any fix won't be save compataible so it's ethier scrap your old league or wait and some i guess don't want to wait anymore.

Thanks again though for taking an interest and for the support.

Andreas Raht · 08-31-2011, 12:35 PM

No problem.
I totally understand that you want the correct states. Just wanted to make clear that the states at the moment are only cosmetic, and will be editable later.

Thanks again for your patience! It's really hard to find that bug

But in the end we will fix it!

Honestly, cuz I had some time this weekend, got tired of questing in WoW, and was bored so figured I'd give it a try just to see.

neojonas · 08-31-2011, 02:44 PM

Thanks Andreas! I'm really glad to hear it will be editable and they are just cosmetic. That way I can continue with my league right now and as I see mistakes I'll be able to just fix them later.

Nice to know it's only cosmetic. Now if the next patch will fix the crash at creating international free agents the Continental League's 2011 season will finally be a go!

CBL-Commish · 09-02-2011, 08:03 AM

I can confirm that the latest patch does fix the problem! Well, at least it fixed the most obvious instance of it in the CBL. I'll investigate a bit more as I try to fix my other issue...
