So will we be able to retain some of this history? Injury history for some, but not all, players has been retained. UPDATE:I reviewed the entire 40-man roster for my Giants and found the following: - Players with activity (league award, contract extension, arbitration settlement) during November and on December 1 have had prior history deleted.
- Players with no activity during the same period have had all history retained.
Have other GMs found this to be the case with your teams?

This might be a low tech and time consuming solution, but could we use the EDIT HISTORY buttons to copy and past info from 17? Or is it one of those changes that won't work due to online play?

Hi Tim, I am not going to look through my entire roster because clearly there is a problem and it should be solved before we go further, whether a problem with some or all players. But I did check several.
I am most concerned about the "complete history" at the bottom of the player page or the BNN page, the text lines of on-going historical items. And right now, the players I have checked are "no history" or the most recent history item (renewed entry level deal or became a free agent) with nothing else. That, to me, suggests the problem just happened at either arb or free agency IF there was history at conversion.
The answer to a posting in OOTP about this suggested other leagues (those that replied) have been fine so, in their words, this is an issue peculiar to our league. So I hope we can narrow down what the problem is, whether Derek or Derek/Anthony, who I think lent some support in the conversion?
Because this league tracks service time and arbitration for extending contracts, it's obviously crucial we have that. Injury history would be nice, award tracking, etc.
Might be good to reach out to another league that converted flawlessly???

Here is what I discovered looking over the Warhounds.
Players who had arbitration- Ryan Lemongello had his history wiped. Players who became Free Agents- Dominic Pearson & Mark Aubin also had their history wiped. Player I released- Jeffrey Fuller his history was wiped Players on my Disabled list- Denny Cantrell & Don Stanton. Their history is also wiped Anyone who received an automatic extension- Manuel Rosado & Todd Smith their history was wiped. Players I promoted within my farm system- 1 example Matt Potter His history was unaffected Also I have 1 player Marcos Pena who has had no recent transactions but his history is gone.
My guess is when we start processing trades those players are going to lose history too.

Also you can see Awards. What you can't see History text, Injuries or Scouting

well the simple solution would be to copy the player news/txt files from the final 17 file and past it into the 18 files. the players have the same IDs.
The issue happened start on real date 5/23. from that point on all players histories have been wiped. So any player that had something happen starting on the 5/23 sim had the histories wiped.
