I had a ridiculous amount of cash and the perfect team save for a shortstop, so in my fourth season I signed Jose Reyes to a 1 year 34 million dollar contract. That same offseason Milton Bradley and someone else just as absurd received four year contracts averaging 35 million dollars a year.

Its two years later and Prince Fielder just signed a five year 215 MILLION dollar contract, averaging about 43 million dollars a year.

In league setup super-star quality players are set up to earn about 17 million a year. Did I just set a horrible precedent with my Reyes signing or is this a glitch? The game is not as fun when all of my stars are asking for 24 million dollars to be resigned

The problem is what you said at the start of your post: you and I'm guessing other teams have ridiculous amounts of cash. Even if you have super-star players set to earn around $17M, free agents will see the stockpiles of cash on the balance sheet and adjust up their salary requests accordingly, seeing that you can afford more. Hence the really large deals you see. Your options are to cut the cash maximum or to restrict the revenue each team gets. Either should reduce free agent requests over time I would think.

you got a pm Cubby...

tigey75 · 03-14-2009, 10:30 AM

Can someone walk me through step by step, how to load Cubbyfan's roster set? Do you have to open the file or just save it? Do you need to unzip it or not?

I've tried a few different tactics w/ no success. I'm using ootp verison 9 with all the latest patches.

thanks to anyone who can help

TomasNL · 03-14-2009, 05:11 PM

unzip and put the file in the saved_games folder.

TomasNL · 03-14-2009, 05:42 PM

BTW, which file is the latest? The one in the first post doesn't look like the final update, it has incorrect minor league systems for example...

justdave333 · 03-14-2009, 07:13 PM

I am new to ootp 9. i downloaded cubbyfan rosters to the ootp9 folder, i have no idea how to input them into the game. somebody please help me on what i do after i download them.

thanks

dave

justdave333 · 03-14-2009, 07:19 PM

also, i have no saved games folder to put them into. please help.

thanks

TomasNL · 03-15-2009, 06:57 AM

Go to My documents->Out of the Park Developments->saved_games.

Make sure all the files you unzip are in one map, and the map has .lg at the end of it's name.

Good luck!

tigey75 · 03-15-2009, 11:21 AM

Thanks for the help, I am able to play with the updated roster set now. I am using the ones from cubbyfans first page here, which was updated on March 3rd.

It seems to have every team correct w/ the exception of putting Alex Rodriguez on the cheater list for two months!

I saved the file into ootp-saved games. Then unzipped them and went to load games. It was there and finally worked. I can't imagine how long this took cubbyfan, this guy is dedicated.

BruinsFan · 03-15-2009, 11:47 AM

For those of you wanting to see results from this set, here you go. These are the results for 5 seasons (all 2009) with this set.

Example 1: St. Louis defeated Boston in W.S.
Example 2: Arizona defeated Minnesota in W.S.
Example 3: New York (AL) defeated Atlanta in W.S.
Example 4: Tampa defeated Chicago (NL) in W.S.
Example 5: Philadelphia defeated New York (AL) in W.S.

As you can see the results were pretty variable with only the Yankees making it to the World Series more than once. Here are the standings and league leaders from the end of each season:

TomasNL · 03-15-2009, 12:22 PM

Wow, are we supposed to be able to read that?

LOL, I had to keep the images under 100kb, sorry for the quality. I can read most of it. I accidentally deleted the originals too.

So I can't even post what it actually reads.

TomasNL · 03-15-2009, 02:42 PM

Yeah i can read the standings...

pablo666 · 03-15-2009, 11:50 PM

I'd be very interested to know if it's possible to incorporate the Japan, Korea and Taiwan databases into the CF database.....how difficult is it to do this? An earlier poster said that he had that DB - is it online somewhere?

Thanks!

tigey75 · 03-16-2009, 02:44 PM

Hey guys, I was wondering.

I started a season w/ the Mets on Cubbyfans roster set. Has anyone else had crazy offensive statistics during the first 15 games or so?

I'm guessing they will eventually level off but right now my entire starting 8 lineup is batting at least .320 and Beltran has hit 9 homers through 16 games.

I also noticed one other strange thing. I was playing St Louis and they have a player (can't think of his name right now) that's rated 117 power, and Pujols is rated only 79 power??

I'm not questioning the almighty cubbyfan but did I download a funky roster set??

TomasNL · 03-16-2009, 04:24 PM

If you play with the one that is in the first post of this topic i understand where your coming from. It doesn't seem like the latest set. Minor league systems are not right, player pictures are old, player ratings don't look updated...

This is absolutely no critisism because i really appreciate all the hard work that is put in these sets, but maybe Cubby mistakenly uploaded an old file?

BruinsFan · 03-17-2009, 01:47 AM

Well, I have simmed 10 complete seasons (all 2009) and have averaged the results together. Here is how the 2009 season may end judging by these rosters.

AL EAST:
New York 91 Wins
Tampa 90 Wins
Boston 84 Wins
Toronto 78 Wins
Baltimore 76 Wins

AL CENTRAL
Cleveland 85 Wins
Chicago 79 Wins
KC 77 Wins
Minnesota 76 Wins
Detroit 75 Wins

AL WEST
Oakland 86 Wins
Seattle 82 Wins
LA 75 Wins
Texas 74 Wins

NL EAST
New York 91 Wins
Atlanta 88 Wins
Florida 88 Wins
Philadelphia 84 Wins
Washington 78 Wins

NL CENTRAL
St. Louis 90 Wins
Chicago 83 Wins
Milwaukee 82 Wins
Pittsburgh 80 Wins
Cincinnati 78 Wins
Houston 69 Wins (Yikes!)

NL WEST
Arizona 88 Wins
LA 82 Wins
San Francisco 78 Wins
Colorado 77 Wins
San Diego 76 Wins

It looks like it could be a tough year for Texas fans as the Rangers and Astros may finish last in their respective divisions. On the flip side of the coin, New Yorkers may end up being very happy as the Yankees and Mets may win both of their respective divisions.

Using the averaged results, the playoffs would see the Yankees face the Indians, the Rays vs the Athletics, the Mets vs Diamondbacks, and the Cardinals vs the winner of a Braves/Marlins playoff game.

During the 10 years, Tampa and St. Louis each won the World Series 2 times while the Yankees, Cleveland, Seattle, Florida, Philadelphia, and Arizona all won it once each.

The Hitter of The Year Award was won by Albert Pujols 4 times, and Ryan Howard, Ryan Braun and Hanley Ramirez 2 times each.

The Pitcher of The Year Award was won by Joba Chamberlain, Brandon Webb, Cole Hamels, Rich Harden and Max Scherzer (Arizona) 2 times each.
