Illegal/invalid lineups ruining the game
So I have played through one season of OOTP21 and started my second season having braved the free agent period and spring training. Man, turn away for a second, and my AI Assistant GM was releasing players literally right after I signed them as Free agents. That was a pain, but I think I figure that part out.
Unfortunately, the game has become so frustratingly unplayable. Here's the problem. I am constantly getting 6-10 notification that I am unable to proceed because some minor league team has an illegal roster. It's ruining the game and the flow. No matter what I do, a) I've enable ghost players b) I've tried to fill rosters with fictional players c) I've set roster size limits (which seemed to force some teams to fill their roster). But nothing works. I may get by a day, and then boom it starts to happen all over. I've read on the forums that the fill rosters with fictional players was busted in previous versions. Is it still? And for sure the ghost players enabled is not working. I enjoyed the first season and was looking forward to building the farm up to be able to compete. But this is unplayable, it sucks the joy out of it constantly having to fight through the notification, and being unable to sim for more than a day. I've restored from a backup, and created a second version, but unfortunately both versions are doing the same thing. I'm running OOTP21 on a mac. Any help would be appreciated. |

That situation does ruin the game. Not to be a pain but this sounds like settings.
1) Do you only control your team? Did you make another manager and forget about them? (I am listing mistakes I have made here.) 2) There is an option to take control of all teams. Have you ever used it? 3) There is an option to prevent the AI from making roster changes, have you ever toggled it? With Incomplete Minors enabled you should not have this problem. What league are these teams in? Are they direct MiBL leagues and teams? Do you have a foriegn leagues enabled? Are these teams in a foriegn league? I wonder if the league is not "under" MLB and has it's own setting.. I may be wrong here. My first round of thoughts. Good luck, LP (Tom)

Round 2!
Thanks for the help. I agree, it seems like settings, but I think I have worked through all the possible errors:
QUOTE=TGH-Adfabre;4641351]That situation does ruin the game. Not to be a pain but this sounds like settings. 1) Do you only control your team? Did you make another manager and forget about them? (I am listing mistakes I have made here.) I've tried being in Commish mode and not. I've toggled the setting to reset AI to manage minor leagues. 2) There is an option to take control of all teams. Have you ever used it? No, I've never taken control of all teams, and think I've toggled that back off just in case. 3) There is an option to prevent the AI from making roster changes, have you ever toggled it? I did toggle this for my team during free agency, because the AI was releasing players I had just signed! I will have to see if that is still on. Thanks, this may be it. Though I think I actually tried to universally toggle that AI's could make all roster changes for minors. With Incomplete Minors enabled you should not have this problem. Yes definitely have ghost mode on. What league are these teams in? Are they direct MiBL leagues and teams? Do you have a foriegn leagues enabled? Are these teams in a foriegn league? No foreign leagues, they are MiBL leagues and teams. I wonder if the league is not "under" MLB and has its own setting... I may be wrong here. I read that this may be an issue, so I reset the settings for the MLB. Tried and it continued. I then went through each individual league resetting settings for each. Still kept occurring. My first round of thoughts. Good luck, LP (Tom)[/QUOTE] Thanks for the help, as noted, I'll try the one with the restricted AI and see what happens. |

I have to agree.....although i haven't tried in 21, previous versions always stopped because some minor league couldnt fill roster even with 'correct' settings. kinda like the hockey game 5 where you have to stop and assign player jerseys to move on....ughghg |
