CubbyFan's 2009 MLB Roster Release Thread - Page 14

masterjack · 01-14-2009, 09:14 PM

Thanks for all the hard work. It is really a huge help. Just wondering. Every player's "Real Stats" that I check have incorrect teams in their histories. ie: Matt Holliday is listed as having played for AS1 for his career, Jason Giambi for CLE and DET and Jason Bay for KCA and HOU. Any ideas

thnx

When I get home tonight from work, I'll fix a few of the other random issues, finish up the White Sox, and throw a new file up again tonight, which will be 1.2.

Like tonight now

or tonight one min from now

Anyway thanks for the great set.

Saw that, quite honestly I don't have the foggiest, but I figure it doesn't really matter much since it shouldn't affect anything after the first year, and during the first year the player stats track correctly on every other page for the team. It is a mystery though.

Actually after I went out and shouted out Markus like that, he still hasn't sent me the file! The nerve of the guy!

I'm guessing he's operating on a different clock than some of us, so if I get it tonight, I'll throw it up, otherwise I'm guessing it's coming tomorrow.

westendcards · 01-15-2009, 12:32 AM

Does / Will the file have the updated minor league teams such as the Reno Aces? Does it have schedules for 2009?

Thanks

CubbyFan23 · 01-15-2009, 12:57 AM

Yep, it has all new teams for '09 in there.

Haven't added schedules yet, but if someone can point me in the direction of an '09 schedule, I'll be happy to add it.

teampunjabi · 01-15-2009, 05:03 AM

So what are the realistic player development / aging settings?

Also what are realistic AI player evaluation options in the file its 50 / 25 / 20 / 5....but I downloaded last years file 3.1 for 2008 rosters and these options were VERY diff...something like 64 /34/ 1/ 1.

CubbyFan23 · 01-15-2009, 12:49 PM

It's going to change in the newest version, I definately think that there needs to be more weight on ratings (perhaps more than last year's version). Thinking about something like 75/13/8/4.

teampunjabi · 01-15-2009, 02:17 PM

You think you could tell me what the exact numbers are for player development and AI player evaluation options?

GOYANKSGONJ · 01-15-2009, 09:30 PM

2009 schedules for MLB and most minor leagues are already out.

Moriarty9 · 01-15-2009, 10:42 PM

To confirm, the ghost teams and such have been corrected by OOTPD but that updated version (1.2) has not yet been uploaded. Correct?

ugen64 · 01-16-2009, 04:25 AM

hmm so far the roster set looks great. I went through and updated some of the transactions and couldn't find anything wrong (except the Kotchman thing I mentioned, and you might even have fixed that in a more recent release)

too bad my managerial skills aren't as good as my ability to spot rating errors - I'm managing the Giants and I foolishly decided to keep Brian Wilson as the closer. first 2 games: a loss and a no decision (because of my offense). some guy named Brian Bogusevic went 6-8 in my last game - naturally, he scored the winning run by homering off Bob Howry in the bottom of the 16th inning

anyway this has nothing to do with your roster set, which is great as always

kbin007 · 01-16-2009, 10:36 AM

Hey Cubbyfan, any idea how long until the 1.2 is available?

CubbyFan23 · 01-16-2009, 03:09 PM

We had a problem on the first go around with the correct world.dat file with the "ghost" leagues gone but the "ghost" players/coaches remaining and causing freezes. Markus also has fixed that for us, and sent me a new copy. I'm going to be doing some serious testing tonight and releasing a new version tonight in the wee hours.

So yes, 1.2 will have all of that corrected, but is not out yet. I'm also having the issues with the mid-June/July problem of "X league does not have enough players" so it's something I'll look into. I might need to fill the rookie/SS leagues with fake players (I can make them all horrible with no shots to make the majors) just as placeholders until I can put the real players in. The only other alternative is allowing teams to not field complete rosters, which as we've seen, can cause some goofy AI.

Shouldn't these leagues be filled up by June/July with players from the draft?

Also, the problem with low minors prospects being in the player database but not assigned to a club or in the FA pool is still there, at least for me. I've downloaded each version twice to make sure. There are also a couple of prospects who appear twice in the player list. A short list of the prospects I've identified as not being on their club:

Xavier Avery
Robbie Ross
Kyle Lobstein
Ross Seaton
Tanner Scheppers
LJ Hoes
Jake Ordorizzi
Chris Dominguez
Logan Forsythe
David Adams
Nate Tenbrink
Tim Melville

There may be others; I haven't finished going through the complete player list. Also, I'm curious: will players who are in the player list such as Aaron Crow and Gerrit Cole but who didn't sign be in the new draft pool?

To add: I'm not finding fault with your work, cubby - I'm grateful as hell, and will remain so even if no 1.2 version ever comes out.

CubbyFan23 · 01-16-2009, 04:24 PM

Those guys were all "created" amateurs in the old '08 set, so they probably just stayed in as ghost players, if they aren't already out, I'll remove them.

Regarding the insufficient players problem Cubby- I believe if you increase the number of amateur draft rounds to, say, 40- that will fix the problem. At least it did for me. Otherwise, I don't think some teams have enough players to supply their R and low A affiliates.

philsgm7790 · 01-16-2009, 05:25 PM

Quick question... if I just wanted to start playing with the 1.1 set right now, will this be a serious problem? What's the big hold-up with ghost leagues/players? Is it really a huge issue and will it make my playing experience absolutely terrible?

Thank a ton for these!

By the way, anyone else notice Longoria? He's listed as a 1B and has no skills as a 3B so the CPU never plays him there.

Youkilis4MVP · 01-17-2009, 08:17 AM

When you do start adding missing minor leaguers, don't overlook recent signee Junichi Tazawa. I think everyone in the Red Sox system is pretty high on him right now, and soxprospects.com has him in the top 10.
