Lightbulb UPDATE - OOTP 26 Public Beta Patch: 26.7.77

UPDATE: We have added a couple fixes, and fixed to include the new skin in the main installer files as well. The new version is 26.7.77. Links below have been updated

As the Pennant Chase is in full swing, we have made some more changes, and have a few big pieces in this next patch. With 26.7.76, we have completely updated the KBO rosters, we have made some more changes to prevent AI releasing good minor leaguers, and we also have included a new skin option, which we hope is more colorblind-friendly, adjusting much of the color balance of the ratings scales and some other parts of the UI (among other changes).

Use this at your own risk! Please back up important league files before loading them in this beta.

Changelist 26.7.77
  • Fixed some issues of the camera panning after plays
  • Changed live score background to grey
  • Fixed alternate skin missing from windows installer
  • Eased minor league releases slightly
Changelist 26.7.76
  • Major overhaul of KBO rosters/ratings
    **All KBO minor league players will appear with real names and data (foreign players are still unlicensed and have fake names)
    **Added all missing minor league players
    **Adjusted ratings of the majority of KBO players based on performance so far this year
    **Significantly adjusted ratings of nearly all KFL players, based on performance and/or additional scouting reports/info where possible
    **Updated uniform numbers for all KBO and KFL players
  • Other roster updates
    **Re-rated many, many MLB/MiLB prospects based on updated scouting reports/data
    **Emphasis on mid-level and lower-level prospects who were more out of date. The highest rated guys were generally adjusted less or not adjusted at all unless their outlooks changed significantly from the early season
    **Many more new DSL players added to the db, rated
    **Handful of new 2026 draft prospects added, most top 2026 prospects already in the db had ratings tweaked
  • Added an alternate colorblind-friendly skin option
    **This is still a work in progress, please provide feedback
  • Slightly adjusted SP overall calculation
  • Fixed default split ratings in new standard game
  • Fixed historical minors players not being assigned to teams if that setting is selected
  • Fixed un-retire coach option appearing incorrectly
  • Minor league roster management
    **Adjusted overall AI minor league management
    **More aggressive at trimming excess players
    **More flexible at minor league setup (should release prospects less)
  • Fixed eye aging getting exponentially better when high development modifier is used
  • Updated contract negotiations (mostly around minor league contracts with majors options)
  • Fixed some corrupted games
  • Fixed auto-withdraw of coach contract offers when a coach is signed
  • Online League: Fixed issues with declining player options
  • Online League: Fixed error 151 when offering contract to posted players
  • Misc roster updated, misc bug fixes, UI fixes

Important info for online leagues: This patch should be compatible in online leagues. The online league fixes should resolve when the commish updates their league file

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.

Here's a PC installer (Fastspring) 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:
