Saving a custom team as a template

Gerrit Dewit · 07-22-2023, 12:26 PM

I have created my all time favorite team made of of players from different teams, years etc..
Is it possible to save this team for use in different seasons / eras without manually inputting the players again one-by-one.
For example : I created my custom team in the 1966 season with players from all years of MLB 1915 - 2022. When this season / game is finished I would like to use this same custom / favorite team to play in the 1986 season without manually importing each player from the historical database again after creating a new team with a blank roster.
Can this be done ?

The easiest way is to import the players using a text file. You can import historical players one by one or by using a text file. I have not done this in a while. Probably back in 2019 or 2018. I posted an example of the text file I used. You need to go back to posts from those games. Search on "import historical player".

From the manual. http://manuals.ootpdevelopments.com/...orical_players
Just save the text file, unlike me.
