Editing Starting Lineups during the War Years!
I am not sure If this is the appropriate place to post this but here we go. I am trying to play the 1942 season for a starter with some changes to the rosters. I want to add Bob Feller, Sam Chapman, Cecil Travis, Buddy Lewis and about a dozen other players to the lineups, rotations etc. I opened the Historical transactions and deleted their military service, and then opened Historical Lineups and added them manually with their player tags into the appropriate position and lineup start. I saved it loaded a new season, added the player to their teams in commissioner mode. I also made sure I had historical transactions and Lineups activated, But when I simulated the first few days nothing happened. I tried to click it again and simulated a few more days and nothing but random lineups. Does anyone one know how to do what I want to do? Or what I am doing wrong?
PS I was editing the Lineups and transactions with open office |

If these players were not in the starting line ups in real life, what are you trying to do then? I'm confused. |

I believe you would need to compile your changes into an ODB file to have anything stick. I doubt you have that capability unless you work for OOTP.

I actually did open up the odb historical roster files, and odb transactions. I am stumped. I deleted the joined military transaction and inserted them in the appropriate starting lineups, then updated and saved the files.

ODB files have never been updateable in the past so I still suspect that is why they don't work for you after being fiddled with.
