Updated Database

SirBloody Idiot is spot-on, I've been forced to do that before too

It's because changing players from teams, doesn't alter the default line up.

Once you switch them out, they will disappear.

Jamie Cox should not be there. The easiest way to do it is to change every person in the default XI with somebody not selected. That will get rid of the ones not playing.

Okay sorted it out now, got McLean into the side and have the option of selecting the other two. Cheers mate.

One little problem with Naved-ul-Hasan - batting at number three for Sussex?

 

[mahmoodbhopal]

may be night watch man

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

No, he isn't.

KentLad put him as an all rounder with 33 batting ability.

Just a note, if you wish to edit an OS Player in a county team, take him out of the county team first, edit and put him back in after.

Otherwise all the contracts bugger up.

 

[KentLad]

Cheers - I didn't know that about the contracts - how does it mess it up?

Any other player changes needed?

Bowling Skill

What is the maximum skill you can give a bowler? It appears to be 111 - not 120??

Neil released an new editor somewhere in the big thread. Not sure which page.

It also edits ethnicity.

 

[victorbubba]

anybody tell me where to put the files as i have 5 folders sc1,sc2,sc3,etc with files of the same name.
have been playing for a few seasons though.
do i just replace them?

 

[Neil Pickup]

In the main folder. It'll only change player data at the start of a new game.

 

[KentLad]

Neil,

Could you please post a link to the updated editor (if it exists) that enables you to amend enthicity?

I've tried searching through the main thread for it but it's a bit of a needle in a haystack job!

Cheers.

Have overwritten the previous version at that link having fixed my FTP issues

Will try to get to the bottom of the histories issue post-exams.

 

[KentLad]

Thanks for that, I'll get on and edit those now!

One thing....when adding Irfan Pathan I put him in over the top of Gary Kirsten I think, and now - although his nationality is Indian, he gets picked for the SA squad in the first year. Is there any way around this??

 

[bryce]

write him over an indian player...

Default squads issue again I think. I need to sort that too post-exams.

in this database does piterson play for hampshire?

 

[chooka_nick]

Kentlad, I don't know if you have found this already, but Michael Bevan is a leggie where he should be a SLA bowler (Y)

 

[KentLad]

The database isupdated for this year - so yes K Pietersen will be at Hants.

 

[squiz]

Funnily enough when i was playing with hampshire at the start of my career (This was before Pieterson signed with Hampshire IRL), at the end of the 2003 season I signed Pieterson A year off, but still pretty weird

 

[KentLad]

I have noticed that when editing contract lengths there seems to be a problem. I changed the majority of players to a 2 year contract, but loaded the game up and they were all on 6 year deals! Any ideas why?
