New to OOTP8...

And1pg2 · 02-22-2008, 09:40 PM

Ok, so I just bought OOTP8 and wow alot has changed since version 6.5, which is the only version of OOTP I have ever played extensively. Where do I start with all of it?

I love the look of the game and the sounds of all the great features it has and I will start looking at all of those very soon. What I want to do though, is learn how to edit stuff, learn what the big add-ons are and what most others use for MODS and solo leagues that they start. So all in all I guess i'm starting from scratch with this version and any help would be aprreciated, just looking to learn what the PROS/CONS are and the ins/outs of OOTP8 are.

Thanks,

Brandon

I will be following any responses you get. Because like you, I haven't played this, well, for me, since OOTP6. So I have forgotten how to import mods, (rosters, face paks, logos, etc.).

I'm semi-new here too, as in I loved OOTP3 and 4 but now want to get back in the game again. I used to know all the ins and outs of what files go where for logos and everything but I have forgotten all that now. I have cubby's roster set and some logos, stadiums, and what not.

Couple main questions:

- Is there a ballpark file/mod that contains all the stadium information? And where does that file go?

- I cannot get my logos to work. I put them in the logo folder yet they don't work.

- Where can I find a 2008 schedule? Then one in my game looks like '06 or something.

That's it.
