Where to put player photos in OOTP9?

galaril · 06-21-2008, 02:39 PM

I have been trying to starta 1975 historical league using Gambo's 1970 photos but no matter where I put the photos they are not showing up even after making a new league or closing the game and reopening it. I saw someone mention putting the photos, logos, etc in the My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 9\data\ folder. However I see that there isn't a data folder in the ootp9 just each individual folder caps, logos, photos etc. Anyone please tell me where to put these?

Just place them in the "photos" folder

I was having some of those same issues when I used some more updated photos and dropped them in the photos directory it would not show in game. I found that in your league saved directory there is an images directory. Try dropping some photos in there and see if that works. The photos directory I believe copies over when you start a new league, and is not accessed after that.

That is the way previous versions worked. Once you have a league up and running, to get the new photo in that league, you need to put the picture in the specific league's photo folder. Of course, if you later want to start another league using the same photo, you would want to place the photo in the default photo folder as well.

Do the photos have to be in that folder or can they be in sub folders by year?

I have created a new league filled with historical players (the best players for all teams). When I set up the league, I disabled FACEGEN. I have not played any games yet - am still filling out rosters.

I downloaded the Gambro photopacks, but I can't find a "photo" directory in my savedgames file. Where should I put these photos in order to pull them into this game and/or how do I do this?

Thanks

If you are just using the default photo folder, it should be My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 9\photos. I don't know about having subfolders within this folder, I haven't tried it yet.

If you are looking for a specific saved league's photos, they will be in My Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 9\saved_games\LeagueName.lg\news\html\images.
