You can sort of do this, but the problem is with the players you want to use. In order to use players from different era's, you would have to import them player by player into the game from the Lahman database. The only batch import the game does (unless it changed with patch 2) is to import all of the players from a given year (all players from 1905 or 1955, or 1995). You can not easily mix and match years.

I believe it is GForce that is creating a roster set with "Team All-Stars". In other words the Yankees will have Ruth, Mantle, Jeter, etc...That would probably give you enough guys to do the league. With patch 2, you may be able to import his older league setup like that into the game, but Im not entirely sure about that. Unfortunately it could be awhile before we see the newest version of that league set completed (its been started and partially completed, but these roster creations take FOREVER to complete).

As for the stadiums, this can be done. The game comes with a boatload of stadiums that you can assign any team to play in. It also has a ballpark editor so you can create or edit your own fields.

Hope that helps alittle

Hope that helps alittle __________________ Well, I don't really think that the end can be assessed as of itself as being the end because what does the end feel like? It's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe, you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how - what does that mean? How far is all the way, and then if it stops, what's stopping it, and what's behind what's stopping it? So, what's the end, you know, is my question to you.
