INSTALL LARRY'S CATOFIX BEFORE RUNNING CATO

www.sim2005.com/catofix.zip

Unzip the exe file into the .lg/LEAGUE_NEWS_BOX folder.

Run it and it will create a file called lalltrans2.txt, leaving the original untouched.

Move the original out of that folder and rename this one to ltans.txt.




=================================================

1. Play your season in OOTP. Finish the playoffs. Don't click "Proceed to next season". Make sure the game is closed


2. Create a folder called "History" (C:\Program Files\History)


3. In the "History" folder create a folder with your league name (MLB)


4. Open CATO


5. File-->New.


6. Find the folder in step 3 (MLB)


7. Save the .mdb as MLB ***This creates a "data" and "website" folder where you chose to save the .mdb


8. File-->Options


9. Input: "League Directory" = where your .lg file is. "Data Directory" = the data folder in step 7. <-- This should be the default folder already selected


10. Output: "Web Page Directory" = same as "Data Directory", the default folder.


11. Check off whatever else you want throughout the all 5 tabs.


12. Apply-->OK


13. Click Import stats.


14. When that is done, click create html pages.

=================================================



Make sure you have installed Catobase 5.4 --> installed 6.0 and overwritten 5.4 --> installed 6.14 and overwritten 6.0. ***You overwrite by extracting the files into the folder where you originally installed Catobase (C:\Program Files\Catobase) the same way you would install a patch like 6.11 was



When i try this, I end up getting an error as the program says it is looking for a "league.csv" file ....am I supposed to export something to my data folders first? Otherwise i have no idea why this doesnt work.

Sorry for the dumb question
