OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Historical/no recalc/development only question

I have question that I really hope someone can answer.

My question is in regards to the adjust/weaken settings. The default adjust/weaken settings when creating a historical league are 200/50 for hitters and 25/10 for pitchers. If I'm creating a random debut league or a straight up historical game using the OOTP development engine only,(recalc turned off) should I simply use the default 200/50 and 25/10 adjust weaken settings, or should I edit those settings? I guess in a way, I'm asking if the game assigns initial ratings to development only players based on a 1, 3 or 5 year evaluation? In other words, should I adjust the default adjust/weaken settings x 3 or x 5 as I would if I was using recalc? I don't play a lot using development only, but when I do, I've never really known if I should edit the adjust/weaken settings, or just fly with defaults. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me in regards to this.
