City Listing Problem

Bottom Of The Sixth · 07-23-2008, 01:37 AM

I have just finished setting up a game with the Historical League Creation Wizard. I have adjusted the names & nicknames of some of the AAA & AA teams. I have also very closely followed the game manual instructions and edited the text file for the list of cities by adding Peoria, IL. I was able to edit the ball park weather however, on the teams home page, under "Select Exact City", it does not list any choices for me to be able to pick Peoria, IL!!!!

Does anyone have an idea of what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks

Did you edit the weather file after you had already started up the league setup of this league? If so, the changes you made to the weather file don't take affect until you start a new game.

EDIT - I may have misread you as Peoria, Illinois, is in the original text file already.

Although Peoria is in the original file, he said he "added" it, which may be part of the problem's source.

Personally, I ran into the same problem, but the sources of my complication were (1) the city names were not spelled correctly, and (2) I'd changed the cities.txt file after I'd already started my league, and the database of cities is frozen for a league as soon as it's created.

Thanks guys for the info. I had added Peoria since it was not showing up correctly when I had created the league. I'll have to check and see if it comes up in my 2nd creation.

I'm still not sure why it would not be listed if it was in the original text file???

I just did another league set up using Advanced Mode and every thing city-wise worked out fine. I believe using the advanced mode is better than using the wizard.

Thanks again for the help!!

I always find problems with Havre De Grace, Md (Cal Ripken)

When import the town isn´t found, but editing Cal and Billy it is found.
Also think the Navajoa,102170,124,Sonora,27.08,-109.45 is different from Lahmanns DB. It should be Navojoa. Fernando Valenzuela.

Guess we have similar problems on many cities.
