Create a player
Where can I find the screen to create a player and add him to the league?
Also, will I be able to save this player and add him to more than one of my games? Thanks! |

As shown below in two screen prints. You must have commissioner powers, though (Manager Menu). As far as transferability between games, I don't think so. You can only import historical players AFAIK.

Let's say you have 2 players in game 1 and you want to have them in game 2 and 3. Create 2 fictional players in game 2. Note their player ids so you can easily find them later. Export the rosters. Do the same for game 3. Now open game 1 rosters in any spreadsheet. Open game 2 rosters in your spreadsheet. Copy the 2 players data in game 1 rosters except the player id. Locate the 2 players you created in game 2 rosters and replace all but their player ids with the new players data and save game 2 rosters. Import game 2 rosters back into game 2 and you'll now have the 2 players in game 1 in game 2. Do the same for game 3. Now you'll have the same 2 players in game 1, 2 and 3. Definately not the best directions, but hope you get the idea. Just remember not to touch any player ids. Do not copy and replace player ids from one game's rosters to another game's rosters.

Missing files or blind user?
In the above graphic example: i clicked on the import historic player and got a message box directing me to open Master.CSV or Historical_database. Neither of those is in my database folder. Where do i go to find those?

Those are in your STATS folder
I know, a little misleading

Not to hijack the thread or anything, but I have a few more questions about creating players.
1. Players are given ratings directly by the editor, and there is an equivalence listed to see roughly what actual statistics those ratings would produce. Is there any way to do that in reverse? Here are his major league stats; create the ratings? 2. Is it possible to create a player and then give him historical stats? Say I make Joe Shlabotnik as a free agent in 2014. Can I edit him to say that he played 45 games at first base for the Cubs last year? |

When I go to the free agents screen, there's no available actions button.

Be sure to calculate his 3Bs by his 2B+3bs to get an accurate triple rating, or else his speed will determine his triples I have a database where most players come into the league at 18...so I will make his current stats really weak, to make up for that I usually look at Baseball reference and make his potential one of his best overall seasons. Sbs are not as accurate and I am not really sure how big of an effect baserunning skill has on extra base hits and Sbs...If a guy is in a modern setting and has 150 speed, 150 steal and 150 baserunning, he will usually steal 10-15 bases at a 75% clip 2) No you cannot give a new player fake history...only historical imports will have that. But you can create a player and give him his potential and fielding attributes. Just make sure you fix the injury rating...some guys come in with 160 ratings for all 4 areas
