Mac Problem

cstatecash3 · 10-19-2006, 04:21 PM

Ok so i've played this game many times on the PC but I purchased it on the MAC for work purposes. Well anyways, heres the problem...

I just started the game and noticed that the screen is too big and I can't see the bottom where the sim innings or half inning or at bats is. This is a problem because at the end of my first game, I'm stuck because I'm unable to find and push the "LEAVE GAME" bottom at the bottom of the screen. I have all the system display modes correct. PLEASE HELP!!!

Ignoring for a moment why you would purchase OOTP "for work purposes"...

Hmm. I've never heard of this, but I would try this:

1. Close the program.
2. Change your screen resolution to something different within the Mac OS.
3. Fire up the game. If you can manage it, set your preferences to "full screen" mode.

See if that resolves the problem. If not, close OOTP, and repeat, trying a different resolution on your Mac.

Any other Mac users care to jump in and help?

Oh, yes you have Steve. It's mentioned here:

It's something they're looking into, but as it stands currently, in windowed mode OOTP is not really playable on a "small screen" on a Mac.

cstatecash3, trying a higher resolution or playing in full screen mode are your only options at this point.

We have a rule that states that Tech Support threads wherein we have not received a response within 7 days will be closed.

This one meets this criteria, so I'm closing this.

If you want to discuss it again, just PM me with the thread link, and I'll re-open. (Don't just say "Hey, reopen my thread." I need to know the URL, thanks!)
