How to prevent CPU from messing rosters after season's end?

[ChiCubs16]

Hey, I've been playing MVP for 3 or 4 years now, but every time I finish a season in dynasty mode, the CPU "re-arranges" all of my rosters before Spring Training. The CPU often ruins my pithing staffs, batting orders, etc.. Is there any way to stop this????

Thanks.

No, you can't prevent that from happening. I know it sucks, but that's just how the game works.

xiberger is correct, there's no way to prevent it. what i do, (and it takes time), is right before i move into next year's spring training, is write all of my lineups for mlb,aaa,aa,a. then once i progess to the next season, i change everything back, even if i have to turn off trades, budgets, etc. once i'm done, i turn back on all budgets, trades, etc. it takes about 2 hours so i only worry about what happened to my team, (the cpu teams are on there own lol). i know it sucks, but it's the only way i know how to dealwith it.

Could you not use Tywiggins' .dat importer/exporter to do the follwing?

- Go through the off-season and right before you get to spring training (or right before the CPU optimizes the rosters), run the exporter program to export all of you .dat files.

- Go to the spring training screen, and then run the importer program to get rosters back into the game.

I think that should solve the problem with the off-season.

Thanks for the tip, but I can't find the importer/exporter using the search function, do you have a link to the file?
