PureSim Baseball 1.85 Officially Released - Page 2

RomaGoth · 10-07-2009, 10:18 AM

I would love if either of you took up a new project for a hockey game, specifically Eastside Hockey Manager. I realize you have a hockey franchise (which I admittedly have never played), but I absolutely love the EHM series and was very disappointed when SI dropped it. There is an entire community wanting a new version of it.

I know this is just wishful thinking, but it can't hurt to put it out there.

I get the standard "loading" dialog box (nothing like when you start a league in a year and it says "found the schedule file...importing" (paraphrased that obviously).

And yet every year the schedule remains the same. (I mean unless every year between 1901 and 1915 Boston opened against Baltimore in Baltimore?).

Or is it a problem with the fact I'm so far back in history that the schedules are not accurate? I must confess I haven't tried it with more modern years.

I haven't tried to load schedules that way. I used the popup that asks to import schedules at the beginning of the year. Do the abbreviations match up? Are there any teams missing? Maybe it tries to load the schedule then errors out.

it pops up for you at the beginning of every year? see it doesn't do that for me! for me it only did that the first year.

i don't think things wouldn't matchup - i started a historical association in 1901 and it loaded the 1901 schedule just fine...not sure why it would have had an error in 1902 and every year since...

MizzouRah · 10-07-2009, 11:12 AM

I think it's great news and although I like ootp X, something about Puresim 1.87 (beta) keeps me coming back.

Looking forward to giving Shaun some cash for PS 2!

WTF?

The development/publishing of this game has taken so many twists and turns it's crazy..

Yes, it does for that league, but not for others. The league it does pop up for was setup as Real Major League Players - Career Mode. The one that doesn't was setup as PureSim Classic. Maybe that's the reason it's not working for you.

pretty sure mine was real major league players career mode...i think it had to be to auto-import and auto-draft everyone onto their teams in 1901...will check later though

DaddyTorgo · 10-07-2009, 01:10 PM

Shaun - any thoughts on what might be causing my schedule-importing failure dilemma?

I'm only in 1915 and I've paused my playing so that I can try to get it worked out - it wouldn't bother me if it was just for that tiny window of time and I could salvage the association - i've already got like 4-5 World Series for the Sox in that timeframe, but I don't want to go much further forward with it goofed like that.

As long as you only win 2 more after 1918!

Hellz no. As my brother put it "I'm considering it a failure if you don't outwin the Yankees."

My only issue is that being so good (overloaded with quality SP in particular), I'm missing out on so many of the great, iconic players that are coming up in the drafts.

And the trade-AI has them on like super-lockdown. I can offer 2-3 SP's who are exceptional (stuff >90, control >90) and be refused trades for a 19 year old Shoeless Joe for example. Sort of frustrating in some ways.

This will be difficult, but I give you kudos for trying.

I have never played historical seasons in any game. Probably fun, I should try it.

Agreed, FOH looks cool, but the lack of career mode is a total bummer.

SunDevil · 10-07-2009, 06:11 PM

Shaun you will have to write a book that explains the last last couple of years...

Congrats, you've earned it and then some.

Looking forward to PS 2.

We're going to have career play eventually - Brian Van Wyk (FOH developer) has devoted the last year simply trying to put the game back together in a useable format of a current programming language just so we could get even that version back on the market. It has been a massive challenge for him because the code was so old - I mean the game was released through .400 Software Studios in 2004 and I highly doubt the code was written just then.

Basically all Brian started with in redeveloping the game was the ability to see how the engine (which is very, very good) worked - he's had to put it back together from scratch. Once we get that version out he's going to turn his focus to making it a career sim.

FOH? Haven't seen anything on this. Care to share a link?

not necessarily that difficult. started in 1901 and it's all about how the teams are developing over the years - it's divorced from real-life history as of 1901.

DaddyTorgo · 10-07-2009, 09:25 PM

weird - i just ran a 2002 real player season forward into 2003 and it picked up both 2002 and 2003

*shrugs* maybe i'll just start over.

well i started over and it's still not working with the early 1900's schedules.

what gives!

FBPro · 10-15-2009, 10:12 PM

Very wierd results for one team, using 1.86 clean install sandbox mode drafted fictional players 20 team/2 league/2 div per league, computer drafted all took over random team yr 1 which was 2000. One team is 9-118 while the rest have typical records. Lowest era on team is 9.86. Anyonelse getting odd results?
