But Seaver, Ryan and other powerhouses import with proper high endurance levels.

This leads me to believe there is something going on in the case of Palmer, and to a lesser degree, Carlton. Not sure what it could be. I'll take a look at the ootp8 Gambo DB and see if I can discern anything.

Other than that, I have to say that playing with recalc OFF and talent change set at 40 (which is a 20% chance of change), the game is seriously enjoyable. I am still fiddling around with the batter/pitcher development speeds (I didn't like the .5 setting that, I believe, RonCo recommends - waaaay too slow for this league). But with the recommended aging settings, I am seeing really interesting declines, or at times lack of declines. Mick bit it at around 34 (diminished to average), but Mays and Aaron are totally hacking the ball in their mid-30's!

LUB IT!!!!
Is there any way you could send me all of your settings in your game or perhaps send me your league so I could look at it? I am having a real problem with knowing what settings do what and what to set them at. I also shut off recalc because I don't want every year of my league to be the same as the real major leagues. But I just can't seem to find the proper settings needed to make my historical leagues believable.

That is probably asking a lot and you may not have time to do that or maybe the lg file is too big to send via an email. Don't know but I sure could use some help in the area of settings for historical leagues....

Thanks in advance or if someone else could help me out here, I would really appreciate it.
