open draft problems

blmeanie · 01-08-2002, 03:28 AM

I've created a league based on 1975 as a starting point, released all players to the draft and have executed a draft (I've actually simmed a bit). I noticed that when looking at a players history screen (html version) that the history is scrambled a bit

Can somebody explain how to fix or not have this happen?

Thanks,

You might check the database that you imported from that could be the problem. <a href="http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/sbond78389/OOTP/baseball.htm" target="_blank">Here </a>is a place where you can d/l a good database to use.

Thanks I'll check it out when I get home tonight. Are you implying that if I take a look at the raw database I have I would see some of the data that I'm seeing in the sim vs. the data getting corrupted somehow through the game process?

The Lahman DB has never scrambled lifetime stats when I have used it, maybe this is a result of releasing all the players into the draft pool. I'm not sure if using Iatric's custom DB's will apply to this situation, from what I understand that deals with the rookie fielding percentage problems, the primary fielding position issue, and the unusual rookie ratings. Did you use the Lahman v4 DB? I've only used the previous one in case that is part of the problem.

I used Lahman's v4. I will check around to see if any other players have scrambled history.

Thanks,
