Well I'm really feeling bad about all of this. You are a nice fella Pstrikert and you spent a fair amount of time I would think processing and typing out those steps so I could come up with just the 59 WSeries replay.
Forgot to tell you I'm 63 and not the sharpest oldie on the block.
Anyway I'm going to take a breather for today I think. I just spent about 2 hours trying to duplicate what you listed. No dice. Simmed the season to the playoffs only after setting everything up and triple checking so I thought I had it right. Boom. My playoffs entries which went well with the CWS/LAD would not show. Nothing. Tried everything.
So then I worked on setting the ball locations in their two stadiums. Finally...took me several efforts...I was at least able to do an exhibition game with CWS/LAD. And no player pics showed. Mercy. I was sure I had that down pat with my v8 play for the last few months.
I did a few innings and it was nice to see the stadium and player names but I'm drained. I had to do a total game reinstall last night late because of some PC troubles. Maybe late tonight or tomorrow I'll have time to work on the player pics and a few corrected ball locations in the stadiums and then I'll go back to trying your setup again. Of course with all the checking and double checking seeking and finding...I forgot to save my original setup. So I'll be starting all over again.
Don't spend anymore of your time on this. I'll work it out. You gave me good directions.
LeGrande Orange...
My only interest is trying to find a way to just play the World Series with predetermined teams so I'm thinking your setup might not apply.
Right now my brain hurts and I'll take my leave of OOTP9 for awhile.
Still like the game but a little of the pizzaz has worn off.
