This is for Clay mainly, but if anybody else knows, chime in.

I'd like to know if there's a way to somehow get my rosters updated after the 2006 season with all the 2006 stat lines. I'd like to keep all the players on the same teams, but increase everyones age by 1 and all players that have experience by 1 year (if they reached the rookie threshold). I'd also like to keep the same predicted stats.

Is this possible?

You will have to get Clay to add in the stats manually. Or maybe he can include an added stat imput just for the year 2006.

Eitherway, sometime in November, the Laymen database will be released. And you can make a roster off of that. But before you start playing around with it. I would wait until Clay can make it compatible with 2k8 beta. :)

Well, I was hopnig there was some way to output the players with their teams and predicted stats, and then load the game using the outputted files, which would retrieve the historical stats from the lahman database.

no idea. Clay was talking about new Historical players options though. Maybe that will dovetail toghether with something like this.

None of the Tools -> Output Stats or Tools -> Input Stats are helpfull to you?

I'm not sure...I suppose it's worth testing when I get the time.

That wouldn't put player's on the correct teams, though, would it?

I TRIED it it sorta works (But is long & tiring but maybe it s me & I havent found the optimum way to do it) but the players ARE not all on their right teams...

Yeah, the output/import stats doesn't seem like it's going to work. It also doesn't output all the "smaller" stats, like GIDP, SH, SF, etc.

I feel like I've put so much work into this roster set, that it's a huge setback to have to start all over from scratch last year. Maybe Clay can set something help and work with me on this.

Interesting point here is we cant start in the future but can in the past right ?


But when you start say in 2006 by about 2020 all the players are fictional,right ?

So why is there is limited start time if the AI & the game can handle the future ?

Shouldnt the game be able to start say in 2015 will all fictional players...

Im not seeing the connection...

Also, in the league editor, you can change the start year.

How about we move this to suggestions. It's gonna get buried in the General coments forum.
