Player Ratings Changing for No Reason & Historical Free-Agents W/Random Ratings Changes Upon Creatio

MorrisButtermaker · 04-21-2019, 11:56 AM

I have identified two Out of the Park Baseball XX bugs. I created a league that included all the teams from the Pacific Coast league in 1946. Since then I have been changing one of the teams over to a 1946 semipro team called the Brooklyn Bushwicks. I have been importing some players as historical free agents. Others I have had to create from scratch. I’ve had to do an enormous amount of roster editing. I have yet to play a single game in the league besides an exhibition contest. What I’m finding is the player's ratings fluctuate back and forth between two sets of ratings. When I load the game I never know which one of the two sets of ratings will be reflected in the game. When I exit the game, go back to the OOTP start screen, and load the game again the ratings always switch over to the other set. I read a post in the forums indicating that a user of OOTP Baseball 17 and 19 had this same problem. (See: https://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boa...67#post4477867.) The other bug I am finding is that when I import the exact same historical free agent with all the variables the same on multiple occasions within this same league I get very different player ratings. Sometimes pitchers come up with different pitches in their arsenals. I assume there’s no element of randomness in importing historical free agents and so when I import the same player under the same options in the same league he should be the same every time. I would appreciate any and all helpful information anyone can provide me on these bugs.

1st of all, scouting. Secondly, wrong forum

What kind of scouting report explains why "sometimes pitchers come up with different pitches in their arsenals" I have not started league play. It is still March 10, 1946. Could scouting even kick in yet? How could scouting explain why the same historical free agents imported seconds apart have very different ratings? I believe I set the scouting options as I should have done when I created the league.

You're in the Perfect Team forum, where there is no scouting, free agents, etc.
