Historical Players in a Fictional Game

Bayvann · 05-20-2012, 04:22 PM

I am attempting to replay Professional baseball from 1871 using historical rookies but with my own league structure and progression. However, each time I try to create a fictional league and check the import historical rookies, the initial draft pool has fictional players. When I delete them all and attempt to import, I get an impart failure notification...

Any ideas or help..?

Create a historical league in 1871. Delete real teams and add your fictional teams. That's the method I used in OOTP 11 & 12.

I had thought about doing that... My issue is that I want to create my own starting structure... 1 league 8 teams. Then over a number of years progress that structure. Add sub-leagues, teams, and perhaps even additional leagues. Were you able to do that or did you not attempt this?

I didn't attempt this but I'm pretty sure you can add/delete teams and subleagues. Be sure to uncheck auto expand league so you expand the league when you want.

You can do that.
