OOTP Fansites

Hi Guys

What are the biggest (and best) OOTP fansites around. I've heard of BigCityBaseball.com but what are the others I should know about?

I suppose just about any Online League could be considered a fansite. Does Championship Manager have online leagues?

TheRockCT · 01-24-2005, 05:09 PM

I'd imagine I'd call those dynasty leagues that people do in the forum would be fansites if they had them posted on the web.

BCB too, of course, but you've already got that.

Here are a few I have bookmarked:

Ballparks by BlueTurf - Very nice ballparks, with park factors and everything!
Fro's Bullpen - These date back to OOTP3, but they're still useable.
Tresclub's download site - Has some utilites, mostly for OOTP4 & 5, but some OOTP6 stuff.
Pierre's Utilties - It's Pierre Page's Page! Home of his legendary utilites!
BOSI Central - home of the Baseball Online Statistical Interface and CommishJoe's CSV Exporter.
Jeff Cato's Site - home of Catobase. The site seems to be down at the moment, though.

And...to toot my own horn:

Eriq's OOTP5 Logos - One of my humble contributions to the community, logos work just fine in OOTP6.
Eriq's OOTP Utilities - GUI Add-Ons for CommishJoe's Exporter, Jayzone's Ratings Translator, and my very own Name Switcher and Retrosheet Schedule Converter.

I wonder if this question is a hint that OOTP:FE is tantalizing close to release...

NO

Sorry boilermaker; but it's not

Previous SI games have provided in-game links to fan sites, I guess Marc is just doing research.

JoeRockEHF · 02-04-2005, 12:09 PM

I think that'd be great to have links to the Download Center, Sim League Central, Big City, and the other sites out there inside the game.

eriqjaffe · 02-04-2005, 12:17 PM

At the very least, maybe the HTML reports won't reference dot400.com anymore.
