Well, the problem is very likely caused by a conflict with the cyberfaces. After the celebration video the starting line up shows up to celebrate the victory, and in this sequence, the game needs the large textured cyberfaces. However, I found out, that even if those textures are in the cyberface patch, the game crashes. So, to solve the problem, you have to save the game before the celebrations, go into the players.dbf and change the following columns - ISCREATED (T to F), ISROM (F to T), PLAYERPKG (cyberface to AAAA or whatever). When the new season is created, you can save the game and change the values back. You have to change only the starters and if you're quick and press Enter, it's only the PF you have to change. He shows up first.
Oh, you can use cdbf. Good program.

Yes, I won other three, any problems with those ones. And I don't have any problems also with celebration of the victory, I can see the starting line up showing up to celebrate the victory, and all the rest. After that, when I move forward, the message "generating the new season" appears and then, after 4-5 seconds, the game crashes.

This is the screenshot. Please note that this time the error is, randomly, in the "schools2.cdx" file. Other times it could be in "players.cbx" or in "teams.cbx" or in other files.
Hope this can helps. Thank you.

I need more time for this. So long!
Andrew wrote:Removing the files so that the game refreshes them or copying the original ones from the disc to the dbdata folder might resolve the problem. An error in one of those folders may indicate the save file itself is still in working order. It's worth a shot.

He should do the latter. I tried some things out yesterday and without the schools.dbf the game crashed.
