getting the computer to recognize changed name files

voxpoptart · 06-06-2007, 07:47 PM

Before I started my OOTP2007 league, I made significant changes to my Names and Nations files. Those changes have been implemented smoothly, making my game experience a more fun one.

The changes I made were not perfect, however -- partly because I've had more ideas since then, but one actual problem was that I accidentally created a severe overdose of players last-named Moore -- so I've made significant further changes to the Name and First Name files. However, in two subsequent rookie drafts, it's become clear that the game has not noticed or applied my further changes.

How do I get it to do so?

Game Setup -> Global Setup -> Re-Import Name & Ethnicity Database (under the Global Database Functions). Is that what you're looking for?
