Importing non-AL/NL leagues

BMW · 08-08-2006, 03:34 PM

I ran into a problem when I was trying to create my own Lahman style database. It appears that OOTP is set to recognize the leagues in the Lahman DB. AL and NL import and it ignores FL (the Federal League from 1914-1915).

I happen to have a Federal League in my creation, but it appears that my addition of UL crashes the import every time.

Is the import hard-coded so it can only accept two leagues, AL and NL? It would be great if it just took every other distinct league and created their own leagues along side the two MLB stalwarts. Just generic NL rules and options that users could tweak later.

Although I don't have an answer for you, I always wanted to see a tutorial on how to create your own database and to get it working properly ingame. I have similar plans and I wish you all the best, BMW
