Player vanishes

ThaCharger · 08-09-2004, 05:01 AM

I am playing with 6.03 and I signed a free agent OF to fill in a hole created by injury. The guy is doing great for me and all the sudded he vanishes! There is no sign of him anywhere. Anyone else seen this?

Check your Triple A roster, I think all signings and trades go there. You may have to place him on your 40 man roster too.

Maybe alien abductions were one of the new secret features of OOTP6?

I wanted to add "Pictures at 11" but that wouldnt be possible, would it?

The player I signed was place on the 40 man roster and the 25 man major league roster as soon as he was signed. He over performred and was doing a good job and then just vanished. There was nothing in the transaction log.

I had the same thing occur. I described it in a previous post, but eventually just passed it off as a isolated database error. Glad to see I wasn't hallucinating. I checked everywhere, and never did find him.

This won't bring the player back, but I'm curious as to how much of him disappeared.

Check your team transactions page and go to the day you signed the player. Click his name. Does his player page show up? I'm wondering if the html file still exists and the player was just removed from the database. If his player html file still exists, you could always create the player again with the same ratings. Use Pierre's Utilities to edit career stats and whatnot.

The player went back to his orginial team the Texas Rangers. Really weird stuff.

Did you restore a backup or do any backups at any time during this period? Did you have any errors in the game during this time that caused you to cancel it out with CTR-ALT-DEL?
