<r> We noticed the issue with the WP's in the XIBL awhile back. Below is what I observed and posted in their forum<br/>

After looking at the leaders in WP for past seasons, it appears to me that its just some kind of display issue. Looking at Ronald Packard, we have: <br ...

Who will spot the bug first?

Boston is in 1st place. That was the first bug I noticed

Stats and leaderboards by league........WOOT !

I love the almost surreal visuals and colors on some of them, like the open gate. Beautiful !

Wow, the offseason free agent period simmed SOOOO much fast that before. A million times faster. That is awesome !!

<r> I just imported and simmed the 1903 season. I havent delved into the numbers yet, but had a couple of observations.<br/>
<br/>
The sim didnt seem all that much faster to me. It could just be my impatience though <E>:)</E> It might have been a little faster than before to me. This was in fast ...

I had an 'OH-OH' moment.

LOL...Did you have your "OH face" on too ? <br/>
<br/>
Sandbox mode is what you want. You can import by team or by individual player if I recall correctly. As said above, there is an ...

Ok I did have a complete backup of the database, but it still wont import in the game. I get a "runtime error 3021 No current record" error. Grrrrrr

<t> LOL I thought I did, and I kind of do, but it didnt work when importing for some reason. I didnt backup the entire database, only the tables that are modified within the database (master, batting, fielding, pitching). When I copied those tables into the database and tried to start a league, it ...

<t> Is there any chance we can get the lahmanps.mdb file to not be installed with an update unless something in the file actually changes ? I just upgraded from 1.80 to 1.84 beta3 and had my custom database wiped out again by the install. <br/>
<br/>
Mental note to self: make a copy of the ...

<t> Player affinity will increase the chance that a player lands on / stays on the team/s he did in real life, but is definitely not a guaranteed thing. The AI will never mimick real life exactly. The only way to get real trades/rosters, etc even with player affinity turned on, is to do all of the ...

<t> Email wouldnt work I dont think. The file is 124 MB zipped up. Also its modified specifically for my usual league setup start date of 1903. I use the .CSV version for my OOTP historical league, so any players starting before 1903 have had their record removed from the master table because that ...

<t> What do you mean it didnt do anything? It links to the changes they made to the .CSV files (which Ive converted to a .mdb file in the PureSim format). I could try and get the ok from Spritze and/or Garlon to upload it to PadresFan's site. One thing Id have to rework is that I usually start my ...

<r> Here is what Dimaggio's real life stats look like for the 1939 import. They are different because they are neutralized (which could pose a problem with the new 1.84 feature of career stats importing with a player for leaderboards etc.....hmmm....). Notice the war years have estimated data, so ...

<r> Ive taken a version of the Garlon/Spritz OOTP database and converted it for use with PureSim. This database cleans up and adds a gazillion things to the vanilla lahman database. Basically its a neutralized stats database with calculated data for missing things like CS, K's, and a huge thing for ...

Thats awesome! I always hated that starting in 1903 players like Cy Young would start with no career stats, and the leaderboards would start out empty. This is one of my most wanted features for sure !

<t> Im on the "too many SB's" side of the fence as far as my historical league, which is still in the deadball era. One of the problems is that there are way too few CS's. In a few test runs of the league before getting going, I would routinely see players with around 80+ SB's when in real life they ...

Hmmm, doesn't look like it would be very easy to edit player names for historical leagues with fictional players.<br/>
<br/>
May I suggest changing this method. How about txt files with a list of names? I have txt files with lists for ...

<t> The names are stored in two seperate tables inside "tables.dat" which can be open with Access. There is a table for first names and a table for last names. Ive edited the "last" table to show an * in front of fictional players names for my historical association. Its alot cleaner to me to see a ...

<t> Got another "Runtime error 5 - Invalid procedure call or argument". I was in the free agent screen, opened up a player card, pressed the "Ratings History" button, and got the error, and a bunch of grey diagonal lines covered the player card, and the game closed out<br/>
<br/>
The last time I ...
