New Game - Issue Finding Historical Database

DesktopDynasties · 10-25-2009, 07:02 PM

I created a new historical league with a custom historical database. Just some simple changes to batting.csv, pitching.csv, fielding.csv and fieldingOF.csv. I placed them in the stats folder, because when I created a game OOTP wouldn't use the new database, even though I pointed to it during game creation. It created the game fine and first season when well. For some reason, upon the 2nd season, it stopped using the custom historical database and went back to default. The original stats folder is backed up as stats - copy. The text box in the league config is still pointing to the folder I have my custom database and that database didn't get overwritten. The game just seems to be ignoring it.

Is anybody else using custom databases with OOTP X and are they having these kinds of problems?

I held off buying OOTP X until the last patch, hoping I wouldn't have issues like these. (sigh)

The .odb file found its way back into the folder.
