Re: 1.16 update?

That's good advice, but we shouldn't have to account for a patch breaking the game.

No, you shouldn't have to. But in this case, everyone should.

Re: 1.16 update?

Yea I deleted the patch. All franchises still screwed.

Guess I'm going to have to start keeping saves on my PC just to make sure some stupid patch breaks my hours upon hours of game time.

*rant on* If this isn't fixed I'll be making a trip to the dump shortly. Won't even give this game the dignity of selling it back to gamestop so that nobody else gets screwed so hard. *rant off*

So yea hopefully this gets fixed. Trying to think of a way the record thing could be fixed. Maybe have the game scan actual wins/losses through the schedule?? Dunno guess the waiting game is on.

Re: 1.16 update?

You'd have to delete every single patch though, right?

You can't just delete one, can you?

Correct but if I was that deep into my season, playing every game, and it was my only option to continue or lose it...I'd do it, finish the season out. Then, I'd start a new one with the lastest patch(s).

I don't see how this is possible?

The file is guarded (unpatched) offline on a zip drive. Once the patch is deleted, and the file is placed back on the system, the patch should not impact the file. Essentially, this file never interacted with the patch (or a patched system).

I am very lost by your post. I get you are rightfully angry, but what you are saying defies logic.

Re: 1.16 update?

I don't know either man. Like the entire reason for me keeping that extra save file was to prevent such issues.

Unless franchise somehow auto-saves upon LOAD I don't see how it would be affected by the patch either.

All I know is I had a save for September 20, 2012 that I saved last night.

I also had the save I was playing on September 21, 2012. I played the Phillies, lost, noticed my record. Tried to advance, it froze.

Loaded up the Sep. 20 save and it showed the same record (minus 1 since I hadn't played the Phils yet). Also freezes upon advancing the day.

How was the file "backed up?" Via zip drive, or via cloud save or what?

Re: 1.16 update?

Are all these file corrupts and freezes happening only with OSFM rosters or are they also happening with SCEA's roster updates? Just asking as I assume all or almost all people here use the OSFM rosters. Not claiming I may be onto something, just taking a shot in the dark

Re: 1.16 update?

I just had a separate save file via a normal save (on the ps3).

I never believed I would have to back up files on my PC / elsewhere just for patches so I didn't preemptively prepare for this lol.

I used to always backup files on my PC / USB drive like when my 360 HD was dying / other issues I knew had a high likelihood of happening. Didn't think that a patch put out by professional game makers would blow **** up like a nuclear bomb.

Good lesson though lol.

Re: 1.16 update?

my rtts freeze is happening with knights roster

Re: 1.16 update?

Thank you for clearing that up. I just don't want other people thinking zip drive files are unsafe.

Sorry you lost everything man. I feel for you.

Re: 1.16 update?

What an absolute disaster. The silence surrounding this is completely unacceptable too.

Has anyone been able to actually download the 4/28 Update and not screw their franchise / game up?

I just downloaded the patch, but I refuse to load my August Franchise and risk ruining everything.

[Helios12787]

Re: 1.16 update?

BJB to be perfectly honest with you, I wouldn't risk it no matter what.

I'd just delete the patch and continue on. The patch doesn't even affect anything worthwhile (for most anyhow).

From what I can see it seems the FRANCHISE issue only sparks up after the all-star break. I haven't seen anyone so far that has had the issue pre-July.

The RTTS issue seems to be affecting people all over the place though so I really don't know.

For what it's worth I downloaded it this morning and I was on October 5th my first playoff game and I've played three games and had absolutely no issues.

Re: 1.16 update?

Has anyone that downloaded the patch before the All-Star break and then simmed past the All-Star break seen any problems?

[Helios12787]

Re: 1.16 update?

I'm about to do that right now Sharp. We shall see.

Edit: Going to sim past the all-star break on a franchise file BEFORE I re-install the patch to see if the results differ from a sim with the file installed to possibly test to see if all files are affected just by installing the patch and the affects last no matter what. Or to see if a file is only affected while the patch is installed and then advanced past all-star break.
