Moving Teams as in history- SF LA

Dwight Schrute · 06-19-2009, 11:56 PM

started a new league in 1957. ran first year than the second so now in nov of 58. i thought the game would automatically move SF and LA. maybe i hit the wrong checkbox? now i want to do it manually the names are easy enough. but i cannot get the proper parks candlestick and dodger stadium since they are not on the drop down list.

so how come the teams did not move automatically and how do i get candlestick and dodger stadium in the game?

thanks

Historical leagues should make the appropriate franchise shifts automatically.

Do you have the option set to automatically expand the league? I don't remember where it is exactly since I am at work, but it is on one of the league set-up screens.

As far as the ballparks, sorry but I can't help because I have never messed with the ballparks all that much. I am pretty sure there is a way to import them, but I hope someone with more knowledge on this can help you.

thanks war i don't think that is it. i have done other leagues in 9 without that and had no problem.

i am using the latest patch.

If parks aren't expanding in a historical league but players are still importing correctly, I can't think of what it would be other than the automatic expansion option being turned off or if you've changed the names of franchises.
