help needed

I started a historical replay of the '78 Tigers and I can't get any ballparks to load other than the generic one. All the correct historical parks are selected in the team menu. The game says there are 131 ballparks. I've played other historical sims and the ballparks have been there.

Any suggestions?

First thing I'd try is to start another 1978 replay and see if the parks appear. If you have invested time in your current 1978 replay, you can create the add'l 1978 replay merely as a test. Try that an report back

I may try that, thanks.

I decided to run a historical exhibition and it's the generic ballpark again when I tried to play a Reds-Yankees 76 series,

Assuming what you mean is the park data is correct but the graphics are generic. If so you need to install the park graphics. Silvam's thread where you got the parks has instructions. Suggest not using SIlvam's park factors. They don't match the factors used to create the player ratings.

Really odd, I had downloaded the ballparks for a previous sim. The only things I can think of is they either disappeared on the last update or when I did a backup of my Mac before I moved last month

I re-downloaded and all is good
