    Huge Salar Cap Bug in CCM...Posted in Bugs Thread but need a workaround

    Whats the bug?

    I started a solo online CCM with the Dolphins. I sim the first year of the draft. Got a high draft pick. I traded back in the draft twice, picking up multiple 1st round picks. At the start of the next season, i get a message saying that i have -13834.00 of cap space, which can't be true because i didn't sign anybody and when i go to the team salary screen it says the same thing. Has happened twice now

    What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)

    Online Dynasty

    How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

    Not sure if i can create it, just has been happening twice in a row.

    How often can the bug be reproduced?
    I have restarted an online solo dynasty twice with the Dolphins, and after simming the first season, drafting, then simming the second season starting the third season i see that i am under the cap by -13834.00 or something like that, which does not allow me to resign any of my free agents.

    Do you have video or pictures?
    No

    Mods sorry for posting this twice (also posted in the bugs thread). But i wanted to know if other people have had this happen to them. I have had this happen twice now, and its killing the core for my team. I even started a CCM with the Chargers and after trading a bunch of picks and drafting, i get the huge Negative cap indicator (weird since i didn't release anyone with a signing bonus).

    I would be really grateful if other people could chime in with a workaround or if this has happened to them.

    Are you also trading players? If so, their salary bonus counts against your salary cap next season. Trading a guy with a big bonus can cost you up to 20 million

      nope i didnt trade anyone...i know how that bonuses count against the cap. But a negative -$132,978,000. Is pretty impossible to get, its def a bug. I scrolled down and saw a similar thread.

        Well documented bug, several people with varying teams have been impacted.

        No work around, just have to restart.

            theapex, that isn't a viable work around, he's doing a single payer online ccm. Your work around requires that all teams be human controlled, as stated in the work around.

            As you said: “You can't have any CPU teams in the league or it will mess everything up."

              Exactly. I just wish we could figure out what is triggering it. The only real workaround is to either:

              A.) Lose a yr of FAs. No resigning in season or off season.
              Or
              B.) Turn off the salary cap.

              Sucks.

                  once you encounter the bug and get to the playoffs (assuming you are done for the year) but BEFORE your resigning phase, cut all of your players that are about to hit FA and resign them to one year contracts. it shows that they have 1 year contracts but will be signed for the following season. then, go into the offseason as you would normally. keep in mind that with the bug, you cannot sign new free agencts. i haven't found a workaround for this which sucked since andrew luck hit FA and i needed a QB in my CCM.

                  once you complete the offseason, the bug SHOULD go away and you will see a cap figure. this happened in one of my CCM and didn't in another. i don't know why but if all else fails, you can always turn off the salary cap bug.
