Exclamation OOTP 16 Update #7, Version 16.7.36 Released!

Important: This update is only for OOTP 16 versions which were purchased directly from us or resellers who use our version.
It is NOT compatible with the Steam or Mac OSX AppStore version! The Steam update is available via the Steam client and the Mac AppStore version is pending review at Apple, which will take some more days.


Hey guys,

We have just released an update to the 7th update for OOTP 16, version number 16.7.36. The previous build 16.7.33 contained a few issues that we have fixed now... here is the changelist for this patch:

- DL notification fixed if a human is controlling all teams
- Crash fixed for very early historical leagues (related to coach contracts)
- Fixed MLB quickstart DSL team affiliations (Red Sox 2 & Mariners 2, need to create new game for fix to apply)
- Tweaked player position AI when generating depth charts
- Fixed "Force start" issues in minor leagues
- Fixed suspension days count

Update Info: To apply the update, simply download the setup file and install it over your current installation. There is no need to uninstall or unlicense your current copy! However, you should quit the game before installing it, of course. Patches always contain all the changes from previous patches / updates. Saved games are compatible between different versions.

Download link for PC:
Main server: PC Installer

Download link for Mac:
Main Server: Mac OS X Installer

Download link for Linux:

Main Server: Linux Installer

Here are the improvements / fixes compared to version 16.6.30:

- Added option to force DH in All-Star game
- Modified All-Star player in-game usage
- Fixed disabling player popups not sticking in options
- Fixed incorrectly notifying to activate a player during off-season while not on DL
- Fixed incorrect stats in team leaderboards
- Fixed incorrect wildcard calculations when division leaders tied
- Fixed duplicate field in team_history_financials export
- Fixed case where "strict" rotation mode would still skip starters on occasion
- Fixed case where locked positions persisted after manager "takes control" of them
- Added ability to remove players from specific shortlists
- Improved offseason processing time
- Fixed several minor bugs + text issues

Cheers!
Markus

Where did you buy it from? You should have received an e-mail with your purchase if you bought it direct.

You should have received an email confirmation when you purchased the game. Your license code is in it.

Already a perk, David! In beta, you're talent, out of it, you're a PITA.

STEAM users are not happy. Or at least THIS STEAM user is not happy. Actually, I feel like a second class citizen.

I will NEVER be purchasing this game again thru the STEAM client. It'll be almost 5 days since a patch was released that my league required and STEAM users weren't given any chance of updating.

Our league is a fairy fast moving league, and as such I've lost a month of game time.

I find it incredibly frustrating to try and build a team and then have the rug yanked out from under my feet the company feels that one set of customers aren't as important as another. And when a company treats a portion of it's customers like a red headed step child, I'm kinda wondering at the same time why I give that company my money.

Missing histories

You can blame me instead! Let someone else named Dave be the bearer of bad news. Defunct league and team histories are still blank. I think this started under patch 6 (that's what made me look for patch 7), but is still happening.

I attached three files (hopefully), the first is a quickstart from 1920, which was under patch 5 at the latest. At that time the histories of defunct leagues were definitely there. The second is a league I started from that quickstart today. And the third is my current version of the league at present.

EDIT: Files are .rar and probably to big to upload, how can I get them to you? Thanks.

Anyways, thanks.
Dave

Doing builds takes time... simple as that. And once a build is found to have issues, we do not release it elsewhere. Hence the delay for the Steam version... simply tell your commish not to immediately update, so there is no problem moving forward. It has always been that way

I found out last year when I spend almost a month waiting for a mac store update that I would never buy from a third party again. Buy directly from ootp. And if you preorder, you get a steam code anyway.

That ship has sailed, because he has and what seemed like the last patch was released to STEAM (6.30) at the same time as everyone else.

I understand what you're saying about build times, and testing and such, but to release to one group and not the other doesn't give me or anyone else the warm fuzzies to go ahead and use STEAM in the future.

But again, now a second patch (7.33 and then 7.36) has been released and STEAM purchasers get the shaft.
