Another issue of "Error 94 : Invalid Use of Null" in Cato

Long_Long_Name · 12-08-2004, 05:13 PM

It's 2011. Expansion year. The New Skojpp Alcahuetes also changed their name to Czars in 2011, but remained in New Skojpp. I'm generating team pages. Right after "Team Summary / New Skojpp Czars / 2010 - Schedule Splits"¸ it crashes, giving me the invalid use of null message. Now, it's probably because of the name change. I went in my database and changed Czars to Alcahuetes for 2011. I generated, and I got the same result (except that it said Team Summary / New Skojpp Alcahuetes instead). It goves me the same message when it generates park factors for that team, and after that, a serie of "Error 55: File already open".

So, what I'm wondering is what I can do to fix the problem, ideally including Alcahuetes for all the previous years and Czars for 2011.

I'm not totally convinced that the error is because of the name change... you didn't change that team's abbreviation also, did you?

That said, the first thing I'd try is Deleting 2011 from your database and re-importing after changing the name back to the original in OOTP.

EDIT: I tried, and it worked. Still, it would be nice to have the team's new name listed.

I didn,t change the abbreviation. It never prompted me to.

I looked too deep. It turned out to be just that: a null error. I deleted some managers using the Catobase menu, but for some reason, it didn't like it. I figured it out by deleting another team's city for a previous year by accident, and got that error message.
