BryanK -> BryanK's Historical Players Mod Released (11/13/2005 4:00:42 AM)
|
Still might be a couple issues to track down or faces to add, but it's 99% complete. I figured I'd get a "beta" version out there so that people could enjoy it along with Shaun's release of 1.1
Major Features:
1. Faces from 1900-Present
2. Names on the pics are matched to the names in the database
3. Fielding data is now based on career averages (e.g. Sheffield doesn't import as a SS and Pujols isn't a 3B)
4. The careers of Jackie Robinson, Satchel Paige, and other players who integrated the game now begin when they are ~22 years of age
5. Players are 1 year younger than they are in real life to account for any time Puresim has them in the minors after they are drafted
6. Babe Ruth has been split into a pitcher and a hitter, both of whom begin their career in 1915
Couple notes:
1. If you've downloaded the file, the mirror I've created dies (which it will after 25 downloads), and more people still want the file, please create a mirror at yousendit.com and post the link until we can find hosting
2. The included version of the database is designed for use with associations that seed with real players; I will release another one for use with historical replays sometime around Christmas
3. The download is ~170 MB
A big thank you goes out to Tigerfan, Jeff Olsen, Anakit, Arod23, and Garlon, all of whom did work that has been used in this project.
