MARKUS-
for this feature...
Added a feature that enables online leagues to broadcast the real-time simulation screen to the league website as a real-time report, so league members can watch the league being simulated live

Do I need to change a setting or how does the exactly work?

I believe I fixed it under PLAY menu and set up Online Sim... keep you posted once we move forward a day.

That's huge, saves upload times tremendously thank you.

Question, what was the "2012 CBA Bug for FA Compensation"?

Is it possible to have more than one installation of OOTP13 on the same computer?

I ask this because I am in 3 different online leagues and I doubt they will all apply the patch at the same time.

Yes, it is and I'll write a manual section about it ASAP (there was one in an earlier version but several things have changed so I should re-write it)

Thanks Andreas, the sooner the better

primetime_09 · 07-13-2012, 06:34 PM

If you start the LIVE SIM and let it go without adjusting, it appears to work great.

However:

- If you WATCH game or enter a game, the live sim stops airing for that day and does not continue if you leave game and resume

- My box scores and game log for the live sim do not work, they go to an error page when you click on them on the webpage

Please advise.

Whoa. You probably should have led off with that list. Nice.

Yah, maybe a link to that post from the OP would be a good thing.

Talk about burying the lead.

For the Glory · 07-13-2012, 07:09 PM

Very disappointed...why can't the default for "in game strategy" be the manager rather than the GM, while in GM mode?

bullmanuga · 07-13-2012, 07:34 PM

So, I updated the game and my scout found a 17 year old in Puerto Rico with a 21/60 talent level. He wanted a major league contract...

I just did what I've been doing when this happens. Editing them onto my team without a major league contract. Do I need to start a new game to see this change?

olivertheorem · 07-13-2012, 07:41 PM

What were his current skill ratings? You can be 21/60 and still nearly ML-ready.

Thanks for the GM-only mode, Markus & Co.! I think I'm going to start a new world-association tonight.

And what was the WAR bug?

Faaip De Oiad · 07-13-2012, 08:20 PM

Act as GM under rated IMHO. Thanks for that!!

Cbob · 07-13-2012, 08:24 PM

Thanks a lot for all your work. This is the second edition of OOTP I've bought and it's the one game I'll always have time for. Nice job!

Also I'd be curious if you saw more online users take the survey would that change anything with future releases?

Not to start an online/offline league battle, but if you open the game every day in a good online league, you can play for hours and hours in one sitting in your own offline league.

To each his own
