Is there a external League Universe setup file

RBPD5015 · 03-25-2015, 08:33 AM

Hey guys,

I was trying to set up my Fictional Universe last night that included

24 Major League Teams
AAA
AA
A
Rookie A
Short A

I then added 80 College Teams and 40 HS Teams

as I was naming them one by one with Fictional names for the Nickname Roster Project, when I got tired and tried to save my progress for the evening, worried if I left it my kids would touch it and BOOM it crashed and I lost 3 hours of work.

SOOOOOOOOO All that said I was looking for some type of tool or external file, that I could tweak using excel or Notepad++ to name my teams outside of the app so I wouldn't have to worry about losing all this data again?

Best thing you can do is save your league as a template during the setup process so if you goof something up or the game crashes then you can go back to that point and continue.

Best thing is to do as little as necessary during creation as you can. Set up the structure; you can set the team names and such after creation when you can save as you go and crashes are much less likely and less costly.

If you're doing a template, do it in incremental versions and save and number the versions - Leaguename1.0, Leaguename1.1, Leaguename1.2, etc.

This will minimize any potential losses.
