In my OOTP 2007 it is located in the league folder. For example:

My Documents\Sports Interactive\OOTP Baseball 2007\data\saved_games\leaguename.lg\

I would assume it is somewhere like that in OOTP9, but obviously the Sports Interactive directory is probably renamed.

YES!!!!!

Thank you.

I was looking under the data folder and even in the program file location but I forgot about the save folder - and Vista and MS useless search wasn't helping.

Giants, I put the instructions in the Readme that came with the download. You've got me worried now that my instructions weren't clear. Is that the case?

no, it is in there I just double checked.

and I actually did read the readme file which is shocking, but I had wordwrap turned off in notepad so the readme looked like one line and that line didn't have the information.

Something else must be done or am I stupid

I have placed the ballparks in the ballpark folder.
Started a new quickstart game.

After that I lloked in edit ballparks and found out that I still had to manually get all the pictures into the game.
OK, but all the balllocations were wrong.

I took the park.dat file from your zipfile and put in the league folder, overwriting the one that was created with all similar ball locations.
Fenway really looked crazy....

I saved the game and started again.
The ballparks I had fixed with pictures wrigley, fenway and HH looked nice BUT the ball animation are truly wrong.

I also found out that I had to work some with the weather.
I only reimported the weather database and hurrah no chance of rain inside HH.

WHAT WRONG WITH MY PARK.DAT file.
I also tried action/assign ball-coordinates also reset coordinates.
Nothing changed.

CORRECTED I was stupid or messed up , too eager to get started or whatever
I finished the game deleted the old park.dat and inserted the PadresFan park.dat file again, then started up the game AND Eureka ALL LOOKS CORRECT......

They are all open air and grass also. Do these settings affect outcomes?

I have adjusted (you gotta love wikipedia) the padresfan's parks.dat for:
  • capacity
  • retractable roofs, domes, field turf
  • dimensions and walls
Does this save this to my saved_games parks.dat file? If so here it is. Let me know of any changes (wall heights were guesstimates unless specific information was available).

If a certain someone had unchecked the "Show your signature" box when he posted his replies, this whole thread could have been 1/3 shorter.
