Problem with AnKit's stadium .dat files (and importing Minor leagues)

tek_604 · 05-11-2004, 06:55 AM

If I use AnKit's stadium .dat files (park.dat, parkconfig.dat & weather.dat), teams are assigned the wrong stadium, and I can't change the teams stadium.

For example, take Arizona - they play at the Bank One Ballpark - if I install Ankit's .dat files, Arizona are assigned the Network Associates Coliseum (Oakland's ballpark). Texas (who I want to manage) was also assigned the wrong stadium, but I can change it to The Ballpark in Arlington (the graphics load fine btw!). But for computer managed teams, I can't change their assigned ballpark.

How can I fix this - my current thinking is to use the stadium editor to get the info from Ankit's files, and then go back to the game and manually edit the ballparks myself.

Also, while I'm here, none of the major teams have names entered for their minor league teams. Is there anyway that these names can be imported into OOTP from a text file?

Turn off manage mode with the utility by old timer or set the team to 'human' owned under the Team Setup menu for that team.

I'm thinking it could be either of these, probably the first one. In manage mode, you can't change anything except for your team's options.
