Need some help

I've played OOTP many times before but i'm new to being able to play it on the Mac as it's my work laptop. I downloaded the demo to try and see if there was a big difference between that and the pc. I liked it so i decided to purchase it. Now i'm trying to set up my seasons and i still get the demo notifications even though i already bought the game from the online site. Do i have to reinstall the game? I hope not because I had to get a password from work just to install it and it was a HUGE hassel.

Also, I know how to get roster sets into the game and load them as quick starts or by loading seasons. Any ways to have the rosters to set to default so that I can create my own league instead of having to play with what is already in the saves. This way I can create my own GM without having to have that fake guy already in there?

Any help anyone can provide me with would be appreciated. I really just want to get this going.

I can't help with your first problem because I had no problems when I 'upgraded' from the demo to a purchase. As far as the GM goes, you don't need a roster set to change 'Joe Unknown'.

After you finish the rough draft (template) for your league and hit the button to start your game, a screen will come up asking you if you want human managers. This screen shows good ol' Joe as the default. You can select which league you'd like your human manager to start in and which team you'd like him to manage, then click on Joe and change his name. In my Federal League I play as myself. In the Nippon League I play as Akira Kurosawa. (The director. Get it? Nevermind.)

Anyway, the problem I have is that I'd like to play as multiple human managers in one universe (different leagues), but can't seem to make that part work.

Good luck. Have you tried contacting the eSellerate people to ask their advice? They're supposed to be very helpful.

When you start up the game there should be an option to register the demo to activate the full version. Search around on the main screen and then enter the registration code you received to activate.

As for using real players in your own roster set, see here: http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...29#post1913629 (and good luck).
