Look here for historical schedules to import into OOTP6 - Page 7

Fantastic Job! I appreciate it!

Is there a single zip that combines all of the schedules?

swampdragon · 03-27-2005, 10:52 PM

A super job as usual from our schedule guru. Now, about those 19th century schedules...

victx · 03-28-2005, 11:39 AM

Thanks for all of your hard work. I am quite eager to run the '05 schedule.

LGO, Is there an easier way to change the teams rather than going through and manually changing the numbers? For instance, with the 2005 one, it didn't work for me, because in my league I'm using with TF's rosters, the Nats are Team 17, Mets are 18 and Phillies are 19. I went through and made the changes needed in the schedule, and now everything looks right to me, but I was wondering if there was by chance an easier way. I'd share it, but it's still your work and I don't want to step on your toes.

The easiest way to swap team ID numbers is to swap the teams in the league editor. That should do it, I think. You can always check to see what the ID numbers are by exporting the schedule at any time and then opening the resulting file and seeing what's listed in it.

Feel free to post it in the fictional schedules thread http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...ad.php?t=63714 and describe it as a reworked MLB schedule with the team ID numbers swapped around. There's a few others in there like that.

Qrusher14242 · 04-09-2005, 11:55 PM

LGO, any way to change the team ID's without swapping them in the editor? im in 1902 and trying to swap Boston(N) and Brooklyn but they wont change position. So the IDs dont change.

On the Edit Team screen change the name of Boston(N) to something like "Brooklyo" or anything that will put it just past Brooklyn alphabetically. Then under Edit League Structure exchange those two teams, and go back and fix Boston's name but do not make any other changes under Edit League Structure.

Thus the team IDs should be switched to what those schedule files with the problem are expecting. Then when the fixed schedule files are available, you should be able to just go back to Edit League Structure and switch the teams with themselves again and get the ID numbers back in the original order.

Great schedules. There is however just one minor misplace I noticed. The D-Backs are scheduled to play the Phillies on thier first road trip when they actually play the Nationals. In fact, that series is the Washington Nationals home opener.

Le Grande Orange · 04-10-2005, 01:53 AM

I think you've got the ID numbers wrong then in your league file.

Philadelphia at Washington = Apr. 14, 16, 17

From the schedule file for these dates: 26 at 19. Team # 26 is Arizona, team #19 is Washington.

Team ID numbers in 2004:

# 15 = ATL - Atlanta Braves (NL)
# 16 = FLO - Florida Marlins (NL)
# 17 = MON - Montreal Expos (NL)
# 18 = NYN - New York Mets (NL)
# 19 = PHI - Philadelphia Phillies (NL)

Team ID numbers in 2005:

# 15 = ATL - Atlanta Braves (NL)
# 16 = FLO - Florida Marlins (NL)
# 17 = NYN - New York Mets (NL)
# 18 = PHI - Philadelphia Phillies (NL)
# 19 = WS2 - Washington Nationals (NL)

Check to make sure your team ID numbers match the numbers listed for 2005, or else your schedule will not be correct.

MJB_919 · 04-10-2005, 09:20 PM

You are right. The Nationals are number 17 in my league. How do you change the ID numbers?

Try under Edit League Structure doing an Exchange Teams between the now-named Washington and itself. That should rearrange the ID numbers within the game to fit the new alphabetically order of the teams within the division.

Spindel · 04-11-2005, 01:53 AM

Check the other schedules thread. I already addressed this.

jbmagic · 04-12-2005, 03:23 PM

hi guys

do you guys have a 2005 Real Major League Schedule?

with these ids. that what Halofan uses for his updated 2005 roster.

# 15 = ATL - Atlanta Braves (NL)
# 16 = FLO - Florida Marlins (NL)
# 17 = WAS -Washington Nationals (NL)
# 18 = NYN - New York Mets (NL)
# 19 = PHI - Philadelphia Phillies (NL)

thanks

That should be exactly what is linked in the post of Spindel just above.

I just wanted to give mad props to LGO for this. I recently started a historical league based on the Ankit db, and will also run a mirror based on Lahman's db, just for S&G's, and having these schedules available is, as Chris Farley would say, awwwwwesome.

LeafsFan2005NC · 06-12-2005, 10:29 PM

I eagerly await the 19th century schedules.

The way I have handled the 19th century, with league alignments and such is to have the NL always be a single division (excepting the years of 1876-1881 and 1892-1900 when I split the league between east and west, combining the standings at the end). The year 1884 is always the trickiest since there were a total of 33 teams split amongst three leagues. Fortunately v6 allows me to have four divisions so I place all the AA teams that played the majority of the season and stayed on for 1885 in one division with all the extras in another division. For the UA, I place all the teams that played the most games in one division and all the teams that played very few games in the other division. Of course, the UA did start with 8 teams in 1884 and retrosheet has a schedule showing those 8 teams playing the entire season (imagine tiny Altoona playing all 114 games that season).

For the 1890 Player's League I just create an extra division in the league holding the AA teams and add an extra team to the AA (since the AA fielded 9 teams after all was said and done). The extra team remains for 1891 since the AA fielded an extra team that year to finish out the schedule.

cephasjames · 07-11-2005, 08:17 PM

First off, this is awesome!

Thnak you so much! I have no clue how hard this was but it looks great!

This is what I've been hoping for for awhile.

Thanks.

Secondly, when I click on the attachment for 2002-2005 nothing happens. The other years work great just not those.

Again, though, thanks and great work.

Hmmm, no one else has reported a problem with those. Try again, and if you still have problems, you can drop me an e-mail and I can always try e-mailing the appropriate files to you.

That highlights the problems with some of the 19th century seasons - other folks will approach those years in different ways. There'd have to be some kind of consensus as to how folks would handle those seasons and then I can get the schedule files to match that approach.

As to the 1884 UA, the full 12 teams can in fact be approximated. What essentially happened in reality is that when a club dropped out of the league, the new club that entered the league took over the departed club's schedule. This can actually be done in OOTP, so you end up with the initial team playing for so many games and then stopping, while the replacement club starts playing games at the point where the departed club stopped.

The same kind of principle can be applied to the 13 team 1884 and 9 team 1890-91 AA seasons.

ctorg · 10-07-2005, 02:28 PM

LGO, is there any place where we can download all of these in one zip file rather than 100+ separate ones?

Great job, BTW. I think I posted this before, but it seems to have been eaten.
