Hi!

We have been working hard the past week and are getting close to releasing the next patch, which is currently scheduled for Monday. But, to be on the safe side, we have decided to release a public beta first, so here it is :)
We have tested this build for 24 hours and did not find any issues, however use this at your own risk! Please back up important league files before loading them in this beta.

This version is compatible with previus builds in online leagues

How to access the beta on Steam:

• Quit OOTP 20 if it's running.
• Open Steam client -> Library
• Right click on Out of the Park Baseball 20
• Click on "Properties" at the bottom of the menu
• Click on the beta tab. Here, enter the following code / password: ootp20pubbeta
• Open the beta pull-down and select "publicbeta".
• Close the Steam client (Steam menu -> Exit)
• Open the client again. It should then download the beta build.

Update Info for our webstore customers: 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. Updates always contain all the changes from previous updates. Saved games are compatible between different versions.

Download link for PC Beta:
Main server: PC Installer

Here's a PC installer that installs into a single folder, which is useful for external HDs for example. Or for creating a second test install of the game, so you can try the patch out without the risk of messing up your main install of the game if something is wrong in the patch:

Please post here if you have any issues or if you run into major bugs. Thanks! :)

Cheers,
Markus & the entire OOTP Team

Any chance the fix for the Classic Skin will be in the final build of this patch?

Tks.

If you are talking about the color of the reports, no. This is planned for the next one.

Thanks for the persistence!

It might not work in every case. Please do let us know and we'll keep trying to find a solution.

- Fixed some issues with too many players getting 0 uniform number


:thumbup1:

Thanks but any way to get Rosters updates in a Saved Game so don't have to create a new one every time?

I LITERALLY just had the sending runners thing happen right before I saw this patch announcement.... I hope it's fixed too! Thanks!

disregard.

About the Gibson thing:
We are talking one game, right? One single solitary game? Okay, it's not against a major league team but it's against a team from a pretty good league.

Look I don't mean to be rude so I'm going to try to say this as nicely as possible. Sample size, folks. It's a real thing. If you don't want to make yourself look foolish take a deep breath, say to yourself three times, slowly, "small sample size, small sample size, small sample size", and then wisely refrain from posting silly things here where you make broad statements based upon the tiniest little sample size possible.

Okay, that probably was slightly rude. Sorry. But it just drives me crazy to see ostensibly intelligent people continue to post the most ridiculous things here.

This still happened for me. The very first opportunity and it still skips the animation. Here is the debug info if that is helpful...

Ya...except this has been happening in my other games where there's blowouts and I've posted about the ratings seemingly off. So ya it was rude and it wasn't ridiculous.

Still getting the skip in animation when sending a runner. Has happened three times in last two games. I tell the runner to go and the screen flashes to the background picture (the sepia toned ballpark photo) then moves directly to the next hitter.

The Oakland A's Opening Day roster is still way off, both for "Opening Day" in Tokyo and Opening Day in Oakland.

On offense Campbell, Baretto, and Fowler need to go down and Canha and Laureano need to come up. On the pitching side Triggs should be down and Brooks should be up (and in the rotation) along with Wendelken.

Have you uploaded your files so the developers can investigate the problem?

One problem with latest patch is Starting Rotation gets messed up with like 6 man Rotation,26 man Rosters and 70 Man Rosters.

I don't know if this is done in patches or not but I am trying to figure out if Tatis Jr & Eloy Jimenez have made it into the game? I can't start my 2019 franchise until then, lol.

They are and have been in for a few years.

This is most likely due to the AI adjusting the roster once the game starts and not the rosters being incorrect.

When I'm set as manager and GM? It shouldn't be doing anything without me, should it?
