I am a modder ... a great feature of OOTP.

I change namesets, nations, ballparks, etc.

But OOTP 22 keeps putting everything back everytime the game starts.

For example, I customized the names_english.txt file. Replaced the OOTP version with mine, and started a game.

The next time I started the game, the "installing game" sequence started, and lo and behold, the OOTP file was now where my custom file was.

What gives?

I'd very much like to start this league, but I need to customize the game's database files, something I've always been able to do before.

I am running the latest version of OOTP on a Mac.
