Release 2.5

==============================================

I only put myself and HB in the title, but there's a lot of people who created this project, so let's call it the OOTP Community Roster Set from now on.

I'll always update THIS post with the newest release, and release notes.

Here's the guys who helped get this set to you:

• haveband for keeping me from losing my sanity throughout this whole thing... and of course saving us tons of time with the minors and transactions
• Muzamba for putting in TONS of work on player histories and other player ratings, as well as getting things organized.
• injury.log for a HUGE database of injury news (that I haven't gotten to yet, but will be big in our second release)
• IcySpanish for ongoing work with jerseys, logos, team colors, etc.
• Exodor and Underlined.i for helping out with birthdates (oh how fun of work it is too!)
• rdklein for helping me with random questions that I had about usually really off the wall OOTP things
• If I didn't list you and you helped, apologies, I did this list really quick so I didn't get mobbed by the OOTP community for rosters.

MORE NOTES:

• League totals are pretty good, but still need some work. If you want to mess around with them to get us better results, feel free by all means. For some reason I just can't get the AL pitchers ERAs down, and get a few more HRs out of the league leaders. Other than that I'm extremely happy with numbers.
• Make sure you check out the rules page for MLB if you want option years, waivers, yada yada on as I have them off. Scouting is also off. I have no idea how the game will react to these on, because frankly I hate them and turned them off. I think you'll be okay turning on waivers and option years, but I have no clue honestly.

Time to start my dynasty

[Powderguy]

Thx guys for all the hard work!

[Jordan]

Yay! Now I can start!

Great, great work. Just for even bothering to do this. Having dabbled briefly in this world, I have a lot of envy for knowing that I would much prefer never to do it again. So, good work and kudos to you for caring enough to bother AND share your work.

Almost forgot, someone wanted installation instructions. Just download this file, open it up with winzip, select all files, and then unzip to Sports Interactive/data/saved games/

That should automatically create a folder for your league, and you can go into the game and open it right up.

Thanks a lot Cubbyfan!

I am sure I will enjoy this.

Great work! Is there any chance anybody out there will upload to a different server at all? Trying to download almost 30 MB from a server that does not seem to work with programs like GetRight is a bitch when your only mode of downloading is dial-up.

Great job! Cubbyfan/Haveband/OOTP community.

I hope that is okay to host it Cubbyfan, if not, let me know and I'll take it down.

[CubbyFan23]

No problemo.

Two other things I thought of really quick while I was running around:

Top 30 prospects are done through Cleveland (A-Z), Top 10 are done for everyone. I'm going to be releasing another set (not the official "second set" we've been talking about, but an earlier one) with the Top 30 done for everyone, as well as some FA's eventually, before we release the big honkin V2 release, which will have correct service time, minor league stats, etc. etc.

Hope that makes sense.

[Fenris]

great work guys. Thx a lot.

Thanks a lot! Hopefully I'll have it downloaded by the end of the evening.

Cubby,
In regards to the financials.

How do you set available cash to 0?

Is it "Cash Maximum"?

If so, it is already set to 0.

Thanks.

Weird issue - it seems "Ask AI to complete Minor League..." erases most of the players in my minor leagues. Weird. This was as the cardinals.

[Goodsox]

Nice job everyone! Thanks for all of the hard work.

[gZusLuvsU15]

I don't see the Pulaski Blue Jays anywhere. I'm trying to fill them with fictional players but I can't find them?

Am I really just that dumb?

Sigh I forgot to fix something. Time to reupload!

This is a wierd issue the computer has when you don't have one of the minor leagues as "allow AI to complete roster moves" or whatever. I thought I had fixed this, but apparently not.

If you want to do it yourself, go through each league on the league setup, and hit the function button, and then allow the AI to complete roster moves. Your players will come back.

[CubbyFan23]

Also the Pulaski Jays are already filled for you guys (you won't have to do it again) and cash is set to $0.

[gZusLuvsU15]

Wow! Thanks Cubby!

Make sure that you play some! You need to celebrate as well!
