Can't start 94-95 Historical Game

Sportsfap · 02-06-2020, 03:39 PM

Apologies if this has been answered, couldn't find it anywhere.

Trying to start a historical game in 1995 but the game won't load. It stops at 40% Processing... it's not a matter of waiting, I left it for a long time. Also I tried a 1917 game, and that worked.

Not sure if it's something on my end, or if 94-95 glitches out because it was a weird season. But any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Hm. I just loaded up my game, and it hung for a few seconds on 40% Processing but proceeded just fine. I know you said you tried other years, but does 93 or 95 work? 99? etc?

Hmm. Yeah I can't get a historical game to work at all now.

I just tried it again, left it alone for a half an hour, and nothing. Stuck at 40%, and if I click the screen windows asks me to shut it down. Tried numerous different years this time, all nothing. Sucks, historical mode is all I play.

Try doing a fresh install and see if it fixes it. If not, let us know.

It's normal for 94 to take a little longer because it advances all the way to January because of the short season's late start. But it shouldn't be freezing up entirely, and I don't get that when I try starting that season, either with the regular start or July 1. What are the exact starting options you're using when you get the freeze?
