You know, I messed with the demo of OOTP8 and it doesn't seem to work so well for what I want, for two reasons.
First, if I import, say, 1965, I get 1965 players rated according to the next 5 years. Ernie Banks is a one star player. If a player isn't on an MLB roster in 65 but comes up in, say, 1966, then he doesn't show up except on a ghost roster with lesser ratings, or so it seems.
So while this accomplishes some things (and thanks for the suggestion), the project still seems unrealistic with just this setting. The tool I suggest, while seemingly not of great interest to most here, since yours was the only reply I got, would really not be that hard to develop. The player creation algorithms are all set, and the ability to recalc according to a specified set of data is already built in, so it would seem that just the ability to present to the user a dataset and screen showing a selected player with a list of his totals for each year and a check box next to each. If the year is checked, include the data from those years in the recalc. Once the user hits the "Create Player" button, it's done, and he's available to add to a roster.
That's easy for me to say, and it may be harder than I think.
And if it's not in demand, it may be prioritized out. That's OK. Just a suggestion.
