From what I recall in the last game, they're updated every season, not game-to-game. Not sure about the historical database wiping part - but if you start with one of the 4 ABA teams (Spurs, Nuggets, Pacers, Nets) they'll all have a blank history, from which you can carve out your own future! Could always swap the logo and name with the team you want if you're worried about immersion.
I found the triple doubles and double doubles. Not sure how I overlooked them to start with.
I figured out how to start a fictional universe while having access to historical draft classes using the downloadable historical DB in the mods section.
- Downloaded Historical DB from mod section
- Downloaded MDB Plus to edit historical DB file (first time I used this particular program)
- Open file up with MDB Plus - (You may find an easier way with this or another program but this is what I did) Copied "Duplicate with structure only" all of the following tables. After copied, I named them the same as original with a 1 ex. "Awards1". I then deleted the original tables and renamed the duplicates taking away the 1 from the name.
Tables edited: Awards, Champions, Hall of Fame, Retired Coaches, Retired Jerseys and Season Stats
After doing these steps (5 - 10 Minutes) I started my franchise opting to have random draft classes. The really cool thing is it starts with a universe of scrubs. All players are 1 star overall.
When I got to the All Star Break it would crash out with an error message. After reading the message and thinking about when it was crashing, I exported the game DB. Changed the first 20 players to "2" experience and tried it again. It worked the next time.
It was crashing because you can't have a rookies v. sophmores game if you don't have any sophmores.
I've simmed through 4 seasons with no real issues. The game will randomly crash here and there but it doesn't appear to be anything related to the changes that I made.
If you attempt this, I would highly recommend saving the game before rookie class default download. I have seen what appears to be fictionally generated classes thrown in with the historical ones.
Hope it works for anyone interested in trying it.
