Importing individual negro league players

Stealcompany · 06-30-2015, 09:48 AM

I've done this in previous versions of the ootp but for some reason I can't get oopt 16 to import 'pop' lloyd into my fictional game.

I'm trying to bring him into the 1912 season of a universe I've created but no matter which settings i try I'm getting an error in the import.

If I can't solve this I'll just create a player and give him the attributes of 'pop' lloyd.

What database are you using?
For some reason he doesn't have a playerid listed for him in my default database... That field was blank... You might check your master.csv file and see if that is the problem or you might want to use Spritze's database... His id is listed as lloydpo00 in Spritze's version...

I'm using the 2015 Lahman database. Lloyd has a player ID of lloydpo99
and a bbrefID of lloydjo99 though there is no RetroID listed for him.

I'll download Spritze's database and see if that works.

He'll import using the Spritze DB, never tried him using Lahman.

He is completely statless in Lahman.

Only in at all due to the HOF.

It worked perfectly using Spritze's database. Thanks for the help!
