Roster import issues

Vholes · 06-09-2006, 04:41 PM

In a test league, I have encountered several issues trying to use the import/export rosters function. I am trying to export the rosters from a OOTP2006 historical league, save the file, and then import the roster file another league (set at the same year as the first league).

The main issues I have noticed are:

(1) When exporting a roster at the beginning of a season (Jan 1), a large number of players vanish and do not reapper when the file is imported into the new league, including nearly all of the scrubs but also a few stars.

(2) If the roster is exported at the end of the year (December 31), the scrubs tend to stay in the game, but a number of them import with superstar-level ratings that they did not have in the original league.

(3) Under both scenarios, player ages are messed up, even though the historical players keep their correct birth dates. For example, the imported Player A may list him as being 26 years old, even though he should only be 21 according to his birth year and the year of the sim; another historical player with the same birth year might be listed as 32.

I want to bump this thread- after importing rosters, players are moved all over the place. A guy that had been in AA is for some reason in A after the import (even though I changed absolutely nothing about the player)

I'm very sorry for the slow response to this thread.

Can you guys walk me through this in a little more detail? What, specifically, are you trying to accomplish?

Thanks!

We have a new rule that states that Tech Support threads wherein we have not received a response within 7 days will be closed.

This one meets this criteria, so I'm closing this.

If you want to discuss it again, just PM me with the thread link, and I'll re-open. (Don't just say "Hey, reopen my thread." I need to know the URL, thanks!)
