Historical Players and Imports
I am trying to start a league with random players through history and do an Inaugural draft. When I start the league and select "import real life historical players" it only generates fictional players. Is there another setting I need to change?
I have also tried importing a historical player into a 2018 game, and no matter how good the player is, the rating is .5 stars with low potential ratings...I assume there is something I am missing there as well? And yes, I have read the manual. |

For the other issue, you have to have both the "auto-import historical rookies" and "use random rookies from all eras" boxes checked. Also select your minimum and maximum years. All of these settings are at Game Settings > League Settings > Historical > Historical Rookies Settings. There is another setting that may be borking your wish to have random historical players rather than fictional players in your game. It is at Game Settings > League Settings > Rules > Amateur Draft Settings Both the "Enable Amateur Draft" and the "Disable automatic Creation of Free Agents and Fictional Draft Class" boxes must be checked. You will probably have to setup another game to get all this correct. Also make sure you select "Create Historical League" when you start your setup. All of my instructions only apply to that mode, as I've never set up real world leagues or fictional leagues. Hope this helps.

Excellent news on the historical player import front. I assume the player came in with all of his stats, and was therefore properly rated (at least was not a .5 star fencepost 1B who couldn't hit worth a lick) by the game? Keep asking questions. There's a very steep learning curve with this game, but once you get it, you may never go back to another baseball sim game.

This is the only sim game I had played, and will never try another one. Had every edition since OOTP14, but just recently getting into online leagues and tweaking the universe a bit more. |
