Something not quite right with imprting ballparks

DannyMac180 · 03-25-2003, 10:35 PM

After saving the ballparks into my graphics folder and editing them to the in game field picture the text shows strange characters in the text box after the ballpark name. I think this may be causing the ballparks not to work. Anyone have a problem like this or can anyone help?

I've seen this a couple of times, but not sure exactly what causes it. Usually, shortening the file name (from xxxxx.bmp to xxx.bmp) and then using the new name (xxx.bmp) in OOTP usually works.

DannyMac, the Blueclaws are about 15 mins. away from where I live.

Do you go to the games or did you just pick that avatar out of the blue?
