I was one of the winners of the survey, so I have my license key. Just waiting on Brad or Richard to email me the link to the setup files. I bet the whole OOTP team is a bit busy today..

Can't wait to dive in!

This is gonna come across as ungrateful and I don't want to seem that on such a beautiful day, but um...I can't crawl around in the new historical player database as there is no Master.csv file in the stats folder one for the MLBers, and one for the MiLBers. If it is asking too much for one to be included I'll go away and leave it alone.

What I would like to do is opt in to major leaguers only (I use reserve rosters in my historical random debuts, so full minor leagues would be a bit much

) and then pull in random players (using a random number generator and taking what's given to me) from the minor league database via the historical player import tool. In order to do that I need the Lahman ID numbers and the debut year and final year for the players, which I can't get without a Master.csv file, at least not very easily, and I certainly can't do the random number generator thing without one.

Again, if this is too big of an ask, I'll head on back to OOTP16 and continue using the default database plus the Spritze database to pull in the random non-major leaguers like I have been, and continue to support this great product every year, as it's given back way more than it's cost over the years. I realize a helluva lot of work went into this radical transformation and this is not meant to disparage that. Please don't take it that way. Thanks.
