Hi Folks,
Is there an online manuel for OOTP12 or am I stuck using OOTP11 manuel? Can someone provide a link.
Thanks much

You're stuck with the 11 manual, I'm afraid. The development team just didn't have the time to put one out this year.

The link to the 11 manual can be found in my sig.

Manuel is working.

Completely updated to 12? News to me.

It's just the 11 manual with some very minor edits and nowhere near where it should be.

RichW was making a "funny". Play on the words "manual" (book of instructions) and "Manuel" (Hispanic male name or type of labor using hands).

Oi, just ain't my day for noticing subtleties.

Sorry RT, Manuel Labor is one of my favorite puns.

I understand that this is a small development team and that with IOOTP being released time is short BUT... as someone who is returning to the series for the first time since OOTP8 I feel (looking for the correct word) irritated.

I've started a deleted 6 or 7 seasons now because I don't fully understand how the game setup works. There are additions to this game that are not in the OOTP11 manual. I'm not sure which buttons to check to get the historical leagues how I want them. For example, how do I keep a player who started 38 games in say 1922 to not end up with an endurance of 2 when I start a 1923 league? What does it mean if I enable storylines? What does it mean to automatically controll in-game engine?

I don't mean to spout all of my venom at these guys because they are hard working developers who try and listen to the fans. It's just having to search forums for answers that I should be provided with up front is my biggest peeve with most game publishers.

I guess my best question is under which heading should I post to get answers to the things I don't understand?
