What are you using to generate those detailed box scores? I've always had a pet peeve with the basic box scores that the Show has always gone with...would like more detail, so would love to be able to generate a box like you are posting here. Do you track and enter the data yourself into a program/app?

You need to go to your Arena and then, go under Dynasty and click on Dynasty Table Generator.

Wow, thanks. Didn't know that.

Waiting for OSFM 1.5 to drop tonight, then planning on taking that and giving these sliders a shot. Last year, I bounced back and forth between these and others, but based on what you guys are seeing here I think I will give these a solid go.

Thanks guys.

Hello Mike,

Any suggestions for when you use Quick manage? Would you use the Sim Sliders CPU pitching at 9 and 0 or the Game sliders at 5 and 5?

Also, After you play a game do you switch to the Sim Sliders before you advance to the next day?I guess Im asking if these sliders affect all league games that are simmed?

Thanks for your work on this. Ive been using them for about 25 games and they are working really well. Only thing I changed was infield errors down to 8

I neither have nor will use quick manage. I'd try both ways and see what happens.

I do switch to sim sliders before I advance because I don't pre-sim the minors. One definitely could, but I don't care much about the minor league stat output. If folks do, sim all minor league games the same as MLB. Yes, the AI pitching stamina and hook sliders do impact all simmed games, including minors.

Where does your team rank in fielding %?

[Yankees3133]

FYI my strategy is play 1 game and Quick Manage 3

Ranked last with Yankees .948 Fielding %

I also use manual fielding and no feedback throwing on all star (Have seen a decent amount of throwing errors)

I'm going to set those to Auto and keep at 9

Ill let you know if Im having the same output at 9

Hey Mike Do these sliders work for CPU vs Cpu

Initially, I didn't want to post but I have to. Man, it was a hell of a match.
