Cant convert ootp4 league

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 11:57 AM

It's not working. I tried typing in the league with the '.lg' on the end and it prompts me to type it in without the '.lg'. When I do that it says it cant find the path. Ive even tried moving my league to the "C:\New League" directory and it still wont work. Help!

You need to make sure that the path is EXACT!!!!!!!!! I have converted several leagues w/o issue.

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 12:04 PM

Im 100% sure it is

Steve Kuffrey · 02-28-2003, 12:09 PM

Is this a league that you actually played or are you trying to covert one "outside" of OOTP4?

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 12:20 PM

Its a league I actually played. Anyone else out there have any success doing this?

Steve Kuffrey · 02-28-2003, 12:27 PM

Did you type the FULL path? c:\......... included?

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 02:00 PM

Yep

Still isnt working though. No one else has this problem?

Steve Kuffrey · 02-28-2003, 02:07 PM

Case sensitive

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 02:11 PM

I tried to keep the same case, maybe I missed something,,i'll give it another shot then.

Man, you guys are quick

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 02:56 PM

Nope, still wont work. Tried everything.

Steve Kuffrey · 02-28-2003, 02:58 PM

Do you have another league by the same name you are trying to convert?

PLG · 02-28-2003, 03:05 PM

Like in another post.
Create a directory called ABC in the root (C:\ABC) than copy
all the files from your league to the new location and give a try.

No, i'm really thinking it has to be something with my system. Every time it comes up "path not found"

Tried that. I have a league named "tb.lg" and I copied it to my C: directory so all I have to do is type "c:\tb". I tried typing "C:\TB", "c:\TB", "C:\tb", "c:\tb" nothing will work.

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 03:28 PM

Even tried copying it to my "D" drive, and rebooted my computer...but still no luck.

Steve Kuffrey · 02-28-2003, 03:32 PM

When typing the original league name type the extension as .LG not .lg.

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 03:57 PM

OK, I got this message.

"Could not create folder:
C:\Program Files\Games\OOTP5\c:\tb.LG.lg"

Maybe it's because I didnt install OOTP5 in the default dirctory?
I'll be back later, gotta go to work.

Steve Kuffrey · 02-28-2003, 03:59 PM

Don't type "lg" when it asks for the "new name" of the league in OOTP5, where you install it doesn't matter.

TwinsFan · 02-28-2003, 04:09 PM

I didnt,,I never got as far as to name the converted league. This was asking me to find the OOTP4 league.

TwinsFan · 03-02-2003, 11:44 AM

DUH!!

Sorry Steve
