The "Other" ballparks

ForeverRoyalKC · 11-04-2016, 09:38 PM

I am now the proud owner of OOTP 17!
I downloaded and installed pstrickerts historical ballparks 2006 - 2015 from the add-on central page and got the major league parks. But...it didn't come with any of the generic parks from The Show like the add-on did with '16.
Can someone tell me how to get those, please? I use those for fictional leagues I run.
Thanks!

Try here: Ballparks | OOTPmods.com

Download the 2012 file and unzip it. Then place the fictional ballpark images in your ballparks folder.

Man, I hate this....ok, my computer ignorance surfaces again.

I don't know what you mean. I don't know what "unzip" means and how to put it in a file. I am beginning to think I shouldve kept '16 because I had everything in place.

Download the zipped file to your Ballparks folder. Right click on it, and select "unzip". Then follow the directions. If that doesn't work, the file is zipped in some format that the built-in Windows software can't handle. There are many utilities for unzipping. The one that I use is WinZip (Zip Files, Unzip Files, Compress Files and Share Files with WinZip). If you don't want to pay its modest price (but you should, as it's very useful), you can download the free trial, take care of your unzipping and then not buy it.

Here are the fictional ballparks: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/.../Fictional.zip

1. Download the file. This zipped file contains 50 individual files packed into the one file.
2. Unzip the file. Just try double clicking on it.
3. Find the "Fictional" folder. This folder was created when you unzipped the original file. It contains the 50 individual ballpark files.
4. Copy those 50 ballpark files and paste them into your "ballparks" folder (located in your OOTP17 "data" folder).
