Draft?

[Lual]

this might have been covered before but i am wondering whether the 'generated' players in the draft can be replaced by real players (So to speak)

maybe only for the first year - but it would be good to actually draft real college players (not that i know any) rather than Dave Byung Kim or Andy Tejada and the likes

i presume this is highly unlikely but there must be a file somewhere that keeps these names linked together?

cheers

I wish the generated names could be changed to real players. That would make this game even more realsitic. Having like Andrew Miller, Daniel Bard, Evan Longoria, Chris Errecart, Brandon Morrow, Brad Lincoln, Dallas Buck, J.P. Arencibia, Allen Craig, and people of that nature in the draft would be pretty cool.

As far as I know, it just reads from a huge list (which has been updated in the past) and picks random guys for the draft. I have not tried it but as far as I know, you can't pin down a year for a player to be drafted.

sounds interesting

so in theory we can remove the ridiculous names that appear? ie the Asian names mixed with Caribbean etc - or does this just take a random first name and surname and match them up?

Yep, you can do that, MarkB has a mod out that fixes that.
