I have replicated this often. I create a modern NFL league, compelte all the setups and all is good. I sim through the preseason fine. When I sim week 1 the game doesn't advance until I sim it a second time. After that though the game will not sim, it attempts to but will not at all requiring me to manually close the game. It repeats once I open it and try again. Any ideas, besides buying 22 while I wait for 23?


Besides redoing the graphics the only big change I have made was to the original finances. I adjust the intial contract levels on the start screen and after creation I set the release and retire percentages and restrict the CAP ceiling.

As a note, I created another league, 8 teams. I have been able to sim through a few seasons without issue.

Disregard. I reset the finances to allow an exceedance of the CAP and it corrected it. I assume that it would not sim becasue that team could not adjust it's financials to meet that setting.
