I went to play my first baseball game and the following window pops up and says:
Montana's lineup or rotation is invalid (either via roster moves or player injury)
Please Update the roster accordingly.
That message pops up for the 4 teams that I chose to manage.
What does this mean???? There is also a lock next to the players name.
I do have 25 roster players and 10 minor league players for each team .
PLEASE HELP!!!!

Check your rotation. Are you set for 4 or 5 starters? Do you have 4 starters? In your lineup, are all of the postion players there? It is most likely some thing minor that you may have over looked.

I have the pitcher rotation for 5 starters. Also, this isn't the same game version that I initially bought. I had to reinstall
the game because I had problems and was told to download and install some new files.. Its saying its a community edition release
5 and its for 2007 and not 2006. The rosters I made were done with 2006.
Also, I don't see an option to play manage. I only see options to play QuickSIm and PSPN Cast.

grog45,

When I first "updated" my PS2005 association into PS2007, for some reason, I was not allowed to manage the first game; even for the team which had been designated for human control. Much to my dismay, I had to have that first game simmed. However, I was given full control for the next game, and every other thereafter.

Also, I noticed that for some reason, in the Games-for-that-day screen, the projected starting pitcher shown for my team was a pitcher from my minor league affiliate, not my major league squad. When you click to Manage the game, everything fell into place just fine-- it just looked like the minor league pitcher would start. Oddly enough, this continued until the World Series. When the next season began, everything was back to normal.

These are a couple of minor issues that I experienced when updating older, pre-2007 associations to the new version of PureSim. I considered them more "annoying" than "unbearable" so I didn't make much of an effort to have them corrected.

I still can't play the game at all because I keep getting the below message:

Lineup or rotation is invalid (either via roster moves or player injury)
Please Update the roster accordingly.

PLEASE HELP!!!!

FROM I'm really upset Thread
I'm really upset with all the time I spent creating my own league and being unable to play
in the MANAGER MODE. I think the game is AWESOME but since there is no way for me to
play in the MANAGER MODE its no fun!!!! I'm planning on uninstalling the game and letting some friends of mine know not to get this game because they may have the same problems that I have.


Greatings all. I'm also new to the game. Just bought it this week.
Grog45, What game style mode did you start your association in? I noticed that you said you were managing 4 teams. Being a newbie myself I may be wrong but, If that's the case, then are you not using Multiplayer mode? If you are using Multiplayer mode then you will not be able to 'Play/Manage' any games because 'The Commissioner' sims them for you in that configuration.
Puresim Veterans, Am I right?

Rich, well-done!

You are absolutely correct-- I didn't catch the "I'm managing 4 teams" part. Yes; in MP mode, you cannot manage a game. You can initiate the sim as the commissioner, but even then you still cannot manage an actual game.



Good catch!

Oh, jeez. That's it, then. You gotta set the game in single-player mode in order to set a human-managed team and play in GBG (game-by-game) mode.

That is just how the game is set up. Choosing Multi-Player allows you to recreate historic trades, but all games then MUST be simmed.

Because by doing this, you are selecting who will run the day-to-day functions of the team; roster, lineups, rotation, signings, releases, call-ups, send-downs, etc.

Otherwise, the computer handles it all.

What do I do now then???? Do I have to scrap my league????
Also, if I chose the single player mode can I go back and forth for what teams I want to manage and what the computer manages???? If not, how would I play a game when 2 teams I have selected to manage play eachother???

grog,

You won't have to scrap your league. Go to the Home screen and select Options and Utilities then the Association Settings tab. Near the bottom is a check-box in the Multiplayer section entitled "Enable Multiplayer Support for this association". If you uncheck that box, it will revert all teams to computer controlled and effectively convert your multiplayer association into a single-player one. Though all teams are changed to computer-controlled when you do this, you can still go into a specific team and assign it to human controlled immediately afterward.

In response to your other question, when you run an association in single-player mode, you can switch back and forth, assigning control of the team to a human or to the computer. However, when you're in single-player mode, hence the term single-player, you won't have the problem of two teams you manage playing each other... since you can only manage one team at a time. Granted, a team you were just recently managing may go up against a team that you are currently managing, but you simply cannot have more than 1 human-controlled team in existence at a time.

I hope that helps.

I Would say the difference is kind of like between being the field manager and being the general manager of the ball club.

Another problem you will probably have is when you revert a team back to computer controlled; it will change everything back to what it was before you made the changes. It will change your lineups and call up and send players back down into what it thinks they should be.
I know what you’re trying to do because I would like to (tried to) do the same thing.
It’s definitely something I wish were different about the game. But other than this issue this game is AWESOME. It’s exactly what I have been looking for.

Regrettably, you're correct here- the PC has its way of doing things, and when you are no longer at the helm, it will continue (or resume) doing things that way... 'that', being whatever way it wants to. Again, that's why it's a single-player mode; typically, one would not normally hop back and forth between managing different teams. What it sounds like someone's going for here is a head-to-head game managing. It's not yet implemented, and Shaun's made no promises, but it's an idea that's been tossed into the ring once or twice.

I was able to restart the season and I only see one minor problem. I tried to select the 4 teams I wanted as HUMAN CONTROLED before I started to play but I can only do one at a time. Thats no big deal because once I play that game I'll just switch to my next team before playing. THANKS AGAIN!!!!

grog,

I apologize if I was a bit blurry in my explanation, but if you're starting a single-player association, it's normal that you won't get a chance to select more than 1 team to control. That's the whole principal behind single-player. As you play the season, you can hop back and forth at your leisure, controlling a different team each day if you want, but you still won't have more than 1 human-controlled team at a time.



Newcastle, please. Pilsner glass. Chilled.
