Build 3.0.50 seems to break new OHL leagues

ElvisMan · 10-22-2016, 07:26 PM

Upgrading to build 3.0.50 breaks new OHL leagues from being created for me.

Whenever I create a new PtG or Sandbox Ontario Hockey League season since I upgraded the beta the game crashes right after reaching 100% for scouting players.

I click on Start a 2016/2017 game, name it, deselect all, select Ontario Hockey League, I select the team I want to manage, it doesn't matter if I click next taking all of the defaults or pick my skills and then let it generate the season.

You always have the base leagues, NHL and AHL and then I want the OHL and that comes with QMJHL and WHL.

As soon as the season creation gets to 100% for scouting players I get the Windows popup that "Franchise Hockey Manager 3 has stopped working" and "Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..."

If I try load the crashed season, a season does load but it would usually assign me to Stockton Heat of the AHL, the OHL isn't an option, the leagues I see are NHL, AHL, NCAA, ECHL, SPHL, USHL, FHL and NAHL.

I uninstalled 3.0.50 and installed 3.0.45 and was able to create a new current season with a couple of teams with no issues.

Weird!

I can't get it to repeat with .50, I start a PtG game with the NHL, AHL, and CHL leagues active, take London, and it creates the season and begins the game properly. Which OHL team are you using? I don't think it should make a difference, but maybe there's an issue with one or more of them.

Weird, I was able to create a new season with this latest build with London. Although I tried right after with Ottawa (I had usually tried with Ottawa or Peterborough) so I'm not sure what's wrong.

Today I attempted to start a new season by going through each OHL team.

The game crashed for me when I would pick any of the following teams: Hamilton, Kingston, Niagara, North Bay, Ottawa, Owen Sound, Peterborough and Sault Ste. Marie. If I start a season as any of the other 12 teams in the league it worked fine.

OK, must be a data issue. The rosters on the teams you listed are very small, I'll see what's going on there.

Were you able to reproduce it on your system with those teams? What's weird is I had started a season using Ottawa with the initial build.

JeffR · 10-23-2016, 08:40 PM

Yup, I tried with Ottawa and it crashed.

I also get the issue with the OHL league with most, if not all teams that I have tried.
