Can't see colleges on College Prospects

Cayman_Style · 12-07-2017, 02:10 PM

I know this is a silly thing, but for some reason when the draft pool comes out college players don't have their colleges listed. I want to know what to do to change that.

If you are using the MLB Quickstart that comes with the game, the reason is that the players are not being generated by the game but are real players that were created by the roster team and there is no way (at this time) for them to enter in what college or high school they came from. Once you get through a few years, the players will be generated by the game, you will start to see the High School and College names attached to the player.

Exactly!

We've changed things now though so that for OOTP19 the real college (and HS prospects) will have their schools listed. I've done a lot of work already adding in the schools for the prospects in the draft(not to mention adding countless new prospects to the drafts for the next 4 years).

So it's just a little thing, but a cool feature nonetheless I think, and one I've personally been waiting for for years

Does this mean I'm getting an NCAA quick-start with real rules in OOTP19?

I can dream...

No, sorry!

It only means that the real prospects will have their colleges listed just like the generated ones do.

Maybe we can get real NCAA rules in OOTP 20 then.
