Hi, i'm new to OOTP and have enjoyed what i've played so far alot. I decided, though, i was gonna do a 2006 league because it turns out having real players populate the league does more for my enjoyment of the game than i would've thought.

The first time i did this i made a a game with the MLB, 1 AAA league, 2 AA leagues, and 3 A leagues. Everything went fine for the first like week of gameplay, but now every time i sim up to saturday the 8th, i think it is ( i know its been crashing the same day every time), i get one of those error messages from microsoft (the ones where they ask you to please report your error to microsoft, with the "send error report" and "don't send error report" near the bottom)

I don't know if this is helpful at all, but this was at the head of the 'error details' page or w/e its called (i'm not saavy with technical aspect of computers at all lol, so i don't know what any of this means, its just the closest thing i could get to documentation of what exactly went wrong).

AppName: ootp2007.exe AppVer: 2.0.0.0 ModName: ootp2007.exe
ModVer: 2.0.0.0 Offset: 0036bc0b

Its very tough for me to guess what exactly went wrong, because in both games (i created a copy of that first game, thinking it was just a bug with that particular game. i'm having the same problem except i don't believe its friday the 8th that's tripping me up, although it actually might be). As in, i was in commissioner mode and changed the photos, stats, birthdays, names, and leagues of a good 8 or 9 players.

The first time it started crashing, too, i noticed something very weird. I had basically created a few players (just took fictional players and changed their names, birthdays, ratings, everything). I signed one of them to Philadelphia's double-A team, but it had his team listed as the Boston Americans when i searched for him. Also the game would typically crash when i was on that page.

I feel like my ADD is acting up and that this was a terribly written post lol, so i'll just try and reiterate it succinctly: In 2 separate games now, the game has frozen up every time i reach a certain point in simming. And it isn't just locking up, i'm getting an error message from microsoft saying it needs to close, and asking me whether i'd like to report the error or not.

Also it might be worth pointing out that in both games, it started crashing fiarly recently after i used the "Fill Teams with Fictional Players" function, and in both instances nothing happened to any team after using that (as far as i could tell).

Thank you very much for your time, any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm heading into finals week of my junior year in high school, and this game is pretty much the only means of recreation i have til i get through that haha.

That's all
