USBL 96 Team 4 Tier Promotion QS

[lencombs]

This is my modification of the Promotion QS file that comes with the base OOTP18 game, but modified to use current Major League and Minor League Teams, with a few exceptions detailed below.

League Structure is 4 Leagues of 24 Teams each, each league divided into East Central and West with 8 teams each. 1 team promotion relegation system per division. Teams will promote or relegate into the same Division they are in now, ie, a team in the Central USBL2 would promote into the Central of USBL1 or relegate to the Central of USBL3. This will keep the league balanced geographically moving forward despite constant team movement.

USBL Championship playoffs will be 6 teams, the 3 division winners and top 3 wildcards, with the top 2 seeds earning a 1st rd bye.

Logos, team jerseys and caps edited.

The minor league teams are current real teams with the following exceptions.

Orlando Admirals are a fictional team, if you have a minor league team you don't see in there just swap them out. I tried to avoid duplicate nicknames so the Indianapolis Indians are the Gold Sox since already have Cleveland and Spokane Indians. Easily editable back to Indians if you prefer.

Hawaii Islanders are a defunct team reborn in this league as are the
Ottawa Lynx.

Eureka Lumberjacks are fictional, I live here so included them, funny they are in the vanilla Promotion QS file as the Eureka Miners. The LumberJack nickname is in homage to the local University Nickname. Our local minor league team is the Humboldt Crabs, but I went with Eureka. This is the team I will be managing and attempting to promote through the division ranks.

OKC reverted to their old RedHawk name to avoid being 2 Dodgers.

The Iowa Cubs are probably the most notable Minor League team not represented, along with plenty others if want to swap in a current couple real ones for these.

*Also I moved the Mets to Brooklyn

The links don't seem to work.

[twotonetommygun]

Yeah, the links aren't working for me either.

[smithtm]

Nor I.

This looks pretty neat, but as the posters above said, the links do not seem to work.

I am trying the link again. I zipped it to dropbox, should be able to unzip into quickstart folder. Slighltly modified as I realized after starting play that I had Boise in there twice so replaced one of them with the Visalia Rawhide.

I played one season and the promotion relegation worked as intended, East Central West teams all promoted and relegated stayed in the same division. ie Central teams promote to the central of next higher league or demote to central of lower. The 6 team playoffs worked and League Champion had no bearing on Promotion. Division winners, and losers promote, or demote.

If this link doesn't work I'll take any advice. I have dropbox, googledrive, and the game activated on Steam with workshop.

Works like a charm, thank you.

Steam lost my save game somehow, so I had to redownload the quickstart, it still works but just noticed I had 2 Charleston Riverdogs teams, I meant one to be Charlotte Stone Crabs so if anyone tries it just edit one of the Charleston teams.
