Will we be able to import 9.2.2 to OOTP 10?

jar2574 · 02-19-2009, 01:34 PM

I'm wondering if the changes to the pitching system will prevent us from importing older games into OOTP 10.

Even the old engine (6.5) was importable to a certain extent. I see no reason why OOTP 9 leagues won't be importable.

i had the same question. It would seem by the past history of the game that we should, but I have major doubts because of how massive of an overhaul it seems pitching will be getting. Love the game, but if this is the case I'll probably continue to play out my current game for another year and wait for 11.

Sure, you can import OOTP 9 leagues

woodfeld · 02-19-2009, 02:31 PM

What about OOTP 8 leagues?

No. But you can use the OOTP 9 demo to import it there, save it, and then from OOTP 10 import the OOTP 9 league...

Cool, thanks.

If you're really cool, you can import an OOTP5 league into the OOPT6 demo, then import to OOTP8, then to OOTP9 ... that's the path I've taken with one of my dynasties (only one real glitch thankfully) ...

Yeah, with the pitching overhaul, I'm holding off on starting any new dynasties until OOTP X comes out.

Great!

I think the pitching overhaul sounds awesome, by the way.

How would a pitchers specific pitch talents translate from V9 where there are none specified to V10? Seems this could be very tricky ground.

Tycobbler · 02-20-2009, 03:58 PM

Tricky but very intriguing.

Good grief, I hadn't thought of that! Having been away for a few days the pre-order newsletter was a really pleasant surprise, but it would be a big shame if this potential problem affects the transfer of my painstakingly set-up V2009 league. Any thoughts Markus?

Markus touched on that here
