    Thanks for the update. I was beginning to wonder why I hadn't received a new email.

    I hope to be able to run it tonight at some point and have it up by morning for everyone, but I wouldn't expect it for another couple hours.

    New file is up.

    You need to download the attachment (remove the .txt) and place it in the settings folder of our saved game (instructions in setup thread if needed).

    Hopefully all is good now and we can resume normal 24-hour sims.

    I'm not patient enough nor smart enough to download this file off the site and remove the .txt extension. No matter what I've done I've ended up saving it as a .txt file when it needs to be a .dat, right?

    I just "re-named" the file and removed .txt. Worked for me.

    Is the .txt hidden or does it display?

    Yeah.. although its renamed, it is displaying as a text file in the settings folder, whereas the previous accounts.dat displays as type "DAT"

    Here is the accountsdata_gms file without the .txt extension for all of you that cant figure out how to remove it. Its zipped, so you'll have to extract it.

    Do we just delete the previous accountsdata_gms file and then put the other one we just downloaded into the folder?

    If you drag the new one into the folder, it should ask if you want to replace the existing file.

    That too. You can do it with the game open as well, you'll just have to re-load the game file once you copy over the new accountsdata file. You can do this by going to the Game Menu -> Online League -> reload the Dugout.

    Nope. Because it's a .txt and not a .dat.
