Fictional National Colored Baseball League (NCBL) Quickstart

Here is a description of my Fictional National Colored Baseball League (NCBL) Quickstart...

1920 start with an NNL and ECL leagues with 2 divisions each, with a Southern Negro League (SNL) with 2 divisions as a AAA non affiliated... A Negro Independent League (NIL) as a separate Ind. League with 2 divisions with a Texas Negro League as a AA non affiliated... Financials on, no Foreigners, Modified world dat for one country USA, african only ethnic, names made up from questdogs and negro league names by unknown, mostly modified CW's negro logos, some cephasjames logos modified, added some of my own, mostly no peppers unis and caps with a few of my own, various park photos added, vintage graphics added but modified... If I failed to mention anyone's work I included in this quickstart I apologize, it was not intentionally omitted...

It is now on the OOTPMODS.com site under Templates... Enjoy...

Can you share your ballpark pictures?

Hi - I went to play your 1920 Negro League QS (great concept, btw) and when I went to play out the first game, realized that there are no ballpark images in the QS. You've named all of the parks and linked pictures (as is clear from the file names), but the images aren't there. I'd love to see the pics you used. Thanks.

I sent you a PM... Send me an e mail address and I will send you the park photos and I can export the park files from that league and send them to you...

I just downloaded this from OOTPMODS.com and installed it in OOTP12 and started a new game... All of the ballpark photos show up in my new game, but the coordinates are incorrect...

So here are the correct coordinates , use the same coordinates for all of the parks...

Instructions on how to enter and assign new coordinates to the parks...

1. Go to game setup, click edit ballparks
2. Select one of the ballparks to edit, click on the picture & coordinates tab
3. Manually enter the coordinates, be sure to hit enter after each entry or they won't take... As you enter each coordinate the different positions will relocate on the park photo on the right side of the game screen
4. After you have entered all of the coordinates, go to the lower right corner of the screen and click the action button
5. Then click the assign coordinates & ball locations to all parks button, then click OK...

You should be good to go...

My bad... You do need the ballpark photos in your ballpark file for these to show up in game... I will zip up the photos and have them if anyone wants them... Just PM me your e mail address and I will send you the zip file...

Tex. Are there blacks only for this league or am I gonna have 3 white guys named Joe Smith for this?
Wondering how I can add this to my History of Baseball which has fictional players but I haven't figured out a way to keep the leagues segregated.

I know this thread is regarding an older version of the game. But I think the concept could still work with the newer models of OOTP.

If I remember correctly (and I may not), I edited the world.dat to USA only, ethnicities file set to all african, edited the names files and I had no caucasian boys showing up... I played it through several seasons before I went on to OOTP13...

I actually set up an association of an all Colored league vs. an all Caucasian league in OOTP13 and it seemed to work out all right...

I am now playing a fictional league starting in 1920 in OOTP13 which consists of the following:

Major League Baseball Assn - All Caucasian 16 team with the Federal League 9 team as a AAA non-affiliated feeder

National Colored Baseball Assn - All Colored 16 team with a Texas AAA 9 team non-affiliated feeder

3 Independent Leagues

Pacific Coast League - All Caucasian 8 teams

Negro Independent Baseball Assn - 9 team all Colored based loosely on negro barnstorming teams

West Coast Negro Baseball League - 6 teams all Colored

All are set to:

No free agency
No International Free Agents
No Free Agents from other leagues
No trading between leagues
0% Foreign players

I edited the world.dat and added two additional USA's, one all Caucasian and one all African... I think I used this as a ethicities setup:

//language id (do NOT change), language, african (1/1000),asian,east-indian,caucasian,hispanic,
0,U.S. (Modern),0,0,0,1000,0,
39,U.S. (African-American),1000,0,0,0,0,

I think I used QuestdogsModernNamesforOOTP12

Hard to remember all I did edit but maybe that will give you the general idea...

I will probably associate the two majors in a few years to have a championship series between the Caucasian league vs. the Colored League...

Any chance you would consider uploading this as well as a quick start or anything? Sounds really cool but the thing that is holding me up is I have no clue how to edit the .dat file to change around the ethnicities.

It would be good to have an updated quickstart for OOTP 14 users. I realize that the method is different now, but is this something you might be able to do, txranger?

Sorry I just read this post today... I have imported this QS into 13 and then again into 14 for anyone who wants it... I also saved it in 14 as a World template... I have the files zipped and sent an email to Charlie at OOTPMODS to get him to post it there... PM me if you want me to send you the files...

Problem with Independent League

On the Negro Independent League (NIL) it seems impossible for a human manager to put players on the reserve roster, but the AI can. This is not a problem with the NCBL because you have set the rules such to disable the secondary 40-man roster, in the NIL this option is turned on.

Because this option is turned on, even when I sign a free agent with a minor league contract it ends up in the "designated for assignment" template and I cannot put it on the reserve roster (even though the reserve roster exists). If I put the player on waivers he is always claimed by another team.

The funny thing is, as mentioned before, the AI control teams have no problem putting teams on the reserve roster.

Any thoughts? Was your intent to give the NIL and the NCBL a different rule set? Since you did the research I want to follow your lead.

I will post a bug report because I do not understand how the AI does it!
