+++ Final OOTP 6.5 Patch, Version 6.51 released +++

Markus Heinsohn · 11-29-2005, 09:02 AM

Hi folks,

we have just released the final patch for OOTP 6.5, and to prevent confusion with the previous 6.5b beta version, I have called it version 6.51!

Download 6.51 Patch

Here is the list of final fixes/tweaks:
- Fixed the 'bad player bug'
- Fixed throwing error scoring
- Fixed displayed fans interest in team financial report
- Fixed importing of historical rookies, some players with few career ABs got overrated
- Fixed importing of single players
- Fixed reporting of contract extentions in the player HTML report
- Changed the transaction reports so that Catobase should work in the future
- Roster limits in the postseason are now correct
- Players who retired mid-season no longer go to the free agent pool
- Traded draft picks are now properly reset when the draft happened
- Added the option to enter a seperate path for team exports in the online league options. If you do not want to use this, make sure the path matches the starting directory of the FTP server.
- The allstar game does no longer edit pitcher roles
- Fixed allstar game generating duplicate players bug
- Fixed Cato problems with players retiring during the season and trading entries
- Fixed a DFA loophole

Enjoy!
Markus

Cool.

Just wondering what the people who are using it think? Is it safe for online leagues? Is Cato really working?

Well, since it's official...I'll hold off and wait until I get word it's actually safe to use.

Thanks Markus!

Thanks Markus! This should tide me over until OOTPBM:2006v7!

Gastric ReFlux · 11-29-2005, 09:49 AM

I wish it'd been called 6.5c, other than that, KUTGW \o/

thomamon · 11-29-2005, 09:52 AM

Is this patch backwards compatible like the others were?

Markus Heinsohn · 11-29-2005, 10:01 AM

Yes!

Matteo · 11-29-2005, 10:05 AM

Thanks Markus, I am as happy because of the actual fixes as I am because it is clear this is the last v6 patch and we can move on...

manooly · 11-29-2005, 10:20 AM

Amen. Final means final.

Thanks Markus, and all those who contributed time, comments, and energies to bring it to completion.

Haven't tested it online, but CATOBASE works with no modifications, other than the fact that I use the lalltrans.txt instead of the ltrans.txt so that I am sure I get all the transactions.

Do I need to purchase 6.5 before downloading 6.51?
(Right now I have 6.12)

Funny. That's how I feel about OOTPBM:2006.

And yes, thanks Markus!

Labeling it OOTP 6.66 would have been way cooler.
