Lahman type database - necessary files?

statfreak · 03-23-2007, 11:41 AM

I created a custom database to use with OOTP2006 and it works flawlessly with that version of the game. When I try to use it with OOTP2007, it crashes before importing any players. The league structure and teams are loaded, just no players. The game itself does not crash, I can continue just without any players.

I am assuming I am missing a necessary table that 2007 uses, but was not needed by 2006.

I would like to know exactly what Lahman database tables are used in 2007. OOTP 2006 only using the following tables would work:

Batting.csv
Fielding.csv
FieldingOF.csv
Master.csv
Pitching.csv
Teams.csv
TeamsFranchises.csv

Obviously I was able to workaround by starting a new game in 2006, loading the database then saving and importing into 2007, but it would be nice to be able to fix the database to work with 2007.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

You need to add the following files for 2007:

seriespost.csv
allstar.csv
awardsplayer.csv
halloffame.csv

I think that should resolve this, but I'm going to move this over to the Mods forum, since I think other people might find this helpful...
