    Having Issues with OOTP 9 Files

    I downloaded ballpark mod files from Padresfan's website, I followed the instructions and still cannot get the ballpark file to work. If anyone can provide help that would be sweet...

    Where did you extract the ballpark images to?

    I have version 8, but I'm assuming the structure is basically the same.

    On XP I put them in:

    C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 8\data\ballparks

    In the game once you've selected your team from the drop down there is a page for editing the ballpark information. The filename of the ballpark in that section needs to match the filename of the ballpark in the "ballparks" directory in order for it to be displayed in the game.

    I'll take a couple screenshots later when I've got the game open.

          Ok, here's some more specific info.

          You need to be in "Commissioner Mode". (forgot about that)

          Here's the first options page, I'm assuming you were already here. The edit button is at the bottom, it won't be visible if you're not in commish mode.




          Here's the page where you change the filename itself.

            Also with the ballpark mod, for games already in progress, I believe you have to put the images into the main ballpark file as expected, but the .dat file goes into the specific gamesave file you have in use (meaning C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 9\data\saved games\your_gamesave_title).

            I can't recall if that was mentioned in his install instructions or not.

              I went into Commish mode and edited all of the stadiums. Thanks for the tip. I thought that it may identify the stadiums automatically. I did put the .dat file in my saved league file but it still did not work. However, through it all I was able to get the stadiums in there....Thanks again.
