I don't believe you can upgrade an existing league, but first.

1) Unzip the downloaded file
2) replace the C:...\My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 10/photos folder, with the unziped folder.

3) (And this is how I deal with different DBs) create a folder in the C:...\My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 10/stats folder, called 'original'
4) copy all the files from the stats folder into the original folder
5) create a folder in the C:...\My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 10/stats folder, called 'original modified'
6) move all the files in the Stats folder to the 'original modified' folder.

This should give you two folders in the C:...\My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 10/stats folder, 'original' and 'original modified'

7) In the 'original modified' folder delete the historical database file.
8) In the 'original modified' folder, replace the master.csv file with the one you unzipped.

Then in any historical league you create, point to the \My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 10/stats/original modified/master.csv and you will get the names that match the photos.


For an existing league, you can copy the photos to your saved_games\xxxx.lg\news\html\images folder. I don't know of a way to modify the xxx.dat files which will contain the player names. However, there is only one photo with the name xxxxx_xxxxx so, you might get some improvements, you might get some that were right to be wrong as well. It will depend on the season and the player.

This is really intended to be something you start with.

Hope that helps.
