Getting this almost every year, no matter which database I use.

Hey,

I just got a laptop from a guy who owed me some money for some consulting, its an older laptop, but upon examining the hard drive, I come to find an installed version of OOTP 13, which of course has me seriously psyched up. I love this game and have been playing OOTP 8 for a long time. I fired the game up and everything seems to be going great, download almost all the things you can ingame and went out and got GS database everyone was talkng about. I played around a little determining which way I wanted to start and decided I would just use the game database provided and begin in 1871 and have some fun, while I compared this to the 8. Cruising along as the Cleveland GM, having a fairly successful run as GM, 5 championships, 11 or so trips to the championship, but along comes 1898. This happens almost every time at some point in the replay. I save, walk away, come back and the game starts to load, but it says its the wrong database version. I attempt to reload and reload and shutdown and reload and not once time does it work. I finally, hit the button to bring in an ootp 12 version but it gets to the part where the white load bar comes up and it stalls. I am at a loss as to what to do.

I thought the game was legitimate, but I am not sure about that. I know its not updated but the final update appears to be cosmetic to me and I am not worried about that.

I love this game, had to add this name as I forgot my previous board name and gave up trying to find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Figured it out, cant wait for 14 to come out, from the changes being made, sounds like it will be the best game ever, hard to see how they can top whats next.

How did you resolve your problem? I am having a similar problem and have yet to figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.

I grabbed the latest database from Spritze and I updated the game to the latest and it was fine after, havent had that happen since I asked for the link to the HS database. I am excited to see 14, from what I have been reading, I think could be the ultimate game. Only a bit longer to wait.
