You can use the Lahman DB if you want real players up through the 2006 season. Doing this is pretty simple and only takes a few steps.

1. Download the Lahman DB from one of the many OOTP mod sites.

2. Unzip the Lahman to a directory of your choosing. I usually create a Lahman DB folder in a seperate OOTP mods folder.

3. To get the uniforms, download them and copy the uniforms to your "jerseys" folder which is a subdirectory of the data folder. The path is "My Documents/Sports Interactive/OOTP Baseball 2007/data/jerseys. Put the logos in the "logos" folder and the caps in the "ballcaps" folder. If you use any custom ballparks, they go in the "ballparks" folder.

Note: All of these folders are located in the "data" folder that I mentioned above.

4. If you want player picture, you can download them and place them in the player photos directory which is also a subdirectory of the above mentioned data directory.

5. Create an OOTP historical league and select the patch to the master.csv file that will be located in your Lahman DB folder.

6. Finish league setup.

7. Run your league. You should see the correct team colors, logos, jerseys, caps and pictures.

Give this a try and post back if you have any other questions. I am doing this from memory so I might have missed something along the way.

Hope this helps.
