Problem with Owner Mode?

[TwentySeven]

As far as I can tell this isn't a fairly common problem but I am having one problem in owner mode - I get it started and then when I try to save it, I click the save button and the game crashes to the desktop. It doesn't actually save the dynasty and I am left with nothing from what I had of the dynasty.

Any clues?

It's been solved already :wtg:

Don't remember exactly where but do a search on the boards. It wasn't that long ago...

Here, give this a try.

What you’re going to need to do is open up your “manager.dat†file with notepad. You can find it in your C:Program FilesEA SPORTSMVP Baseball 2005datadatabase folder. Once you open it with notepad it will probably look really confusing but that’s ok.

All you need to understand is that each line is broken down into segments for instance “0 Felipe†would be the first segment and “1 Alou†would be second segment and so on and so forth until you reach the last segment 20. Also each segment is separated by a (,) and the top line is explaining what each segment stands for. Now what you need to change is the nineteenth segment which stands for “manager_reallife†basically what you need to do is make sure every lines nineteenth segment looks like this “19 1,†except for the first line which you can ignore it should start like this

0 first_name,1 last_name,2 manager_jerseynum,

Also ignore the second line it should start like this

0f58f3c1b,0 Default,1 Default,2 99,

And ignore the last line on the page which should start like this

07dc7da2d,0 A,1 Manager,2 99,

I know that may be a little confusing so remember to backup your “manager.dat†incase you accidentally screw something up.

I have to get up in four hours so I’m going to try and get some sleep now.

Thanks guys, looks like it should work. Can't try it right now - doctors checkup, but when I get back I'll try it.
