Text errors, typos, cosmetic issues go here!

Markus Heinsohn · 03-19-2018, 10:17 AM

Let's keep a single thread open for reporting all typos and text issues that come up. Anything that's just a typo, some text is cut off on a screen, a recap mentions the wrong team or person, etc.. we'll keep these all together in one place. Please include as much as is relevant - screenshots or exact wording of the text in question, as well as what is wrong and what it should read as.

Thanks,
Markus

Wording is not clear.
Not a bug assuming just an error on the code but in the trading section next to pending the "Trade Log" their is wording over it harder to see it.

Not sure if this is a problem with my computer specifically, but the cursor is a bit off.

The game is recognizing the pointer about half way down the cursor icon. Does that make sense? Just a little weird having to mentally adjust where the click location is.

I've tried resetting the game and my computer and the issue persists.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I simply don't have the settings correct for my computer screen. But I noticed that when i switched the settings from windowed to full screen, the top line of text was cropped a bit. Below is a screen shot.

In the team drop down menus, the tops of the team names are cut off very slightly. Screenshot below.

Not entirely sure if this counts as a cosmetic issue, but for some teams, the playoff information is not correct on the team history page. See below (the Twins made the playoffs a bunch of those years).

Missing a city in the directory Haleburg, Alabama. Monte Irvin's place of birth.

This is extremely cosmetic. Blame it on Anaheim. Just looked it up on Baseball-Reference, and as of the 2017 season it's the Los Angeles Angels, and they play at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. Prior to 2017, it was the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim playing at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. The game has them as the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, playing in Angel Stadium. Told you it was extremely cosmetic. Why can't they be normal down there. How about the Los Angeles Angels playing at Angel Stadium. Is it really that difficult?

I noticed the secondary logos for current MLB teams with dark colors are now white and have shrunk down to at least 112 px to go against the new dark background. I would've liked to have seen the change for all secondary logos in the game, including minor league and historical teams. I prefer using historical team logos for some teams. Now I'll have to manually create new logos to match against the new dark background.

(You can barely see the S in the 1998 San Diego Padres logo)
(If you notice also, the Dodgers logo is smaller than the other teams in the division. The sizes of the updated logos are inconsistent.)

See attached image. Numbers aren't centered in the red/green circles and pitch speed is getting cut off. I haven't messed with text sizes. 1920x1080 screen resolution, if that matters.

Yes. Absolutely having the same issue. Kind of an annoyance, results in clicking / selecting the wrong option, just below the option you actually wanted.... A couple sample photos attached, the finger in the pointer is at the above option, but the lower option remains highlighted. This problem is present with both the arrow cursor and the finger pointing cursor.

Sometimes upon first click, the words disappear. Here, MLB is no longer visible.

ptownjungle · 03-19-2018, 08:00 PM

When I open up a submenu then go and open a different menu the submenu does not close and there is an overlap.

Imperialism32 · 03-19-2018, 08:33 PM

Win probability charts can be hard to read in the default dark mode:

The purple part isn't distinct enough from the dark background.

I didn't know where to put this. I've loaded the game but the activation # I was given by sellerate is not accepted. My email is rico19492 yahoo.com

not certain what the issue is, but most likely it's a typing error, or a space at the end or start. Just guessing. here's a link that may (i hope) help. i've never had a problem with the esellerate # not being correct, but i have had issues with me entering it incorrectly.

Good luck and hope this link helps. it's a bit dated in the terminology, so don't let that throw you.

Classic skin mode during game play, Didn’t want to see defensive players ratings so selected “small” labels in option screen. Went back to game, labels were small but unable to read names. The names were in white on white background.

Are you making sure to include the letters "OOTP"? Because that's actually part of the activation code.

Were you copying it over manually from your records, or did you use the wonderful copy/paste feature? It hasn't let me down yet.

Typo in scouting reports:

"Isn't expected to be more than a complimentary player"

It should be complementary with an E, not complimentary.
