crash while viewing draft pool

Sweed · 04-22-2007, 03:29 PM

Like the title says, viewing the draft pool and had the game crash. Went back and followed same steps and was able to reproduce it.

Go to draft and view a P with college experience. Everything on the card appears fine and I hit the "pitching stats" tab. So far so good but if I hit the "game log" tab the game goes right to desktop. No MS error box or any other warning. The game does load fine after the crash and I can keep playing.

Feeder league set to the lowest level of stat tracking so I'm sure there are no game logs. But it shouldn't crash the game if someone hits the tab.

FWIW..
League setup standard MLB with 5 levels of minors (imported from v2006). Added in 4 feeder leagues, 2 HS- 2 college right after import.

Draft set to be populated by feeders and created players. Draft is 30 rounds with the game making enough players to fill a 35 round draft. So, 1050 players in draft with 900 needed to fill.

Markus would need to see your league file. Can you upload it somehwere and post back here? (hopefully one of the other beta people can get this logged for you as I'm away from home for the weekend)

No problem. I've continued my season but I do have a backup of the game where I can get the dat files while there is still a draft pool.

I have uploaded the dat files to the si ftp site using these instructions..

How to FTP Files to Us

file named "Sweeds dat files.zip"

The season is at game 46 shortly before the draft.

If you would happen to need the full save game let me know, I'll keep a copy until I know you don't need it.

FWIW I have played past this as the easy solution is to not click on the game log tab. The only real concern is if someone has spent hours playing without saving and runs across this, crashes, and loses the time he spent playing.

This also occurs, not surprisingly, when looking at batters too. Haven't tried HS players but don't know why they would be any different.

Thanks for you attention to this issue.

Sweed,

I have logged this as TT #3493, and I have noted the name of the .zip file you uploaded to the SI server.
