OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Aewin and The Great Demo's 20 Step Guide to Importing Rosters

asaintsfan · 08-13-2006, 06:46 PM

I have followed the great demo's instructions to a T - and after I import Cubby/ROlen rosters into my universe - I disable the roster moves and the waivers - if I switch leagues for a minute - then all of the players on my Cubby/Rolen rosters disappear? It is probably one of the most frustrating things I have ever encountered - every player on every roster I import - is there - until I click off and come back then they are gone. For example - on the yanks - every player except like Kevin Curtis are gone. WTF>???? This has driven me to the bottle - and by the way - why do you copy the players.dat file from league 1 into the second league??? Is that a typo??

Are there steps missing from these last 2 instructions?

18) For all parent leagues that have no players, under "Game" menu find "Game Setup." Click on the "League Setup" tab and select the first league in the list. On your right hand side, with the "Structure" tab selected you will find the Selected League's structure.

At the bottom you will find 3 buttons, "Import/Export," "Financial Functions," and "Other Functions." Click on the "Import/Export" button and a dropdown menu will appear. Select "Other Functions." After doing so, AFTER DOING WHAT? OOTP2006 will prompt you and ask if you're sure? Select OK.

I also - make fictional contracts. But it makes no diff. If anyone has any ideas - THEY WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!! Please help me.
