Patch #2 coming Sunday!

Markus Heinsohn · 04-02-2016, 03:20 AM

Hey guys,

we finally have found the problem that caused the game to crash in 3D in-game mode. As a workaround for now, you can prevent this by disabling the game sound in the pre-game option, the sound caused the bug.

Also, the new patch will introduce better compatibility to certain graphics cards, so it should be very stable.

The complete changelist:
- Fixed problems with the draft pool contaning too many players in historical games with historical minors
- Added the early Pacific Coast League to the historical minor league database starting in 1921
- Fixed issues with out of whack league total modifiers in some historical minor leagues, causing very high scores
- Teams without affiliated minor leagues now have access to a reserve roster even when the 40-man roster rule is in effect
- Unaffiliated minor league teams now have access to a reserve roster
- Added the option to set a fee for players being purchased from unaffiliated minor league teams (minor league setup, rules tab)
- Added logos for the new West Virginia Black Bears
- Tweaked trade AI for injured players
- Tweaked pitcher fatigue recovery, compared to OOTP 16 starting pitchers recovered too quickly
- Fixed crash issues on some Macs & PCs when playing out games in 3D mode
- Fixed draft order issues in 2016 MLB game
- Fixed memory leaks which may have resulted in crashes is long term simulations
- Fixed a bug that caused news / injury / transaction logs not being erased according to the setting
- Fixed several small bugs and cosmetic issues

Cheers!
Markus

Forgive my ignorance, but will this patch have the "final rosters" for those of us who play MLB? I can't wait to start my real franchise game.

Will this fix require a new start or will future drafts in existing leagues be correct?

Cool! Thanks Markus!

Remedial question: the patches will update existing games, but do renamed teams, realigned leagues, new logos disappear?

No, they won't disappear.

Like the idea of the early PCL league.

actionjackson · 04-02-2016, 12:59 PM

I didn't see it in the list, but I assume there will be updates from Sir Spritze to the historical database fixing various problems that existed in 2015 historicals.

Opening day rosters included as well?

Please see Post #6.

I like some of the additions. One that needs to be added is Minor League Evoulation because it would be interesting in the News to see like Gwinnett Braves has been purchased by the Miami Marlins or Altanta has decide not to renew contract with that Team.
