OOTP and OOTP Overrun. Help!

DamnYankees · 07-19-2004, 06:33 PM

I just finished my historical season in 1939. My offense was simply the greatest thing ever, scoring 1547 runs in a 154 game schedule. The problem was Jimmie Foxx. His line for the year was:

.389 BA
1.038 SLG
239 Hits
229 Runs
110 HR
1 RBI

Yes, 1 RBI. I checked his splits, and if you add it up, he actually had 257 RBI. I assume this goes over a total OOTP allows, and it kicked his total back to 1. I don't really care about the fact that it shows 1, but I need to know how to edit it for CatoBase reasons. Is there any way to edit that number within OOTP, or within CatoBase, so it doesn't screw up all my stats and win shares?

OOTP has had that rollover-after-256 thing forever, AFAIK. Editing it in CatoBase should be fairly simple, though, as it's just a Microsoft Access database, which you can open up with Access or Excel and edit it.

Just make sure you back the database up first, though.

What file fo I edit? I looked at bat_stats.csv, and it seems that it only contains splits, not raw totals. So it says 153 at home, 104 on the road, but I can't find where it has my RBIs listed as 1.
