New issue: Now that the game is patched, the historical DB in my long-running solo historical league isn't working properly. I'm using Lahman 5.6, comma-delimited. When it comes time to import the draft class, it gives me the "loading database" graphic and everything. When I go to the draft class screen, though, all the players are entirely fictional - no major leaguers in sight. I've double-checked the database path and the draft settings, "import historical amateurs" is checked - it's all the same as it's ever been. I even tried re-installing the Lahman DB to another directory - same result.

Edit: I noticed now after "loading database", the progress bar heading switches briefly to "creating draft class". Is Lahman 5.6 comma-delimited not compatible with this patch? This is obviously bad news and a big problem for my league, which is in 1963 now after starting in 1901 - fortunately, I was able to 'end process' when the bad draft classes came in so its integrity is still preserved.

Any ideas?
