Missing Minor Leagues

Posted by Nutlaw: If you need any further assistance with this matter, please post once more in Tech Support with a link to this thread and we will do our best to help you figure out a solution.

My problem has still not been resolved. My computer has been down recently do to an upgrade that may help to resolve my problem. I believe that I know the cause of the problem but I'm not sure if I can fix it. Here's what I think happened...

OOTP-07 (via Sports Interactive) used a different data storage configuration than the other OOTP games before & since. Sports Interactive stored their data files in the "My Documents" folder on the C-Drive. These files became extremely large on my system.

[My configuration] My C-Drive was rather small, but I had a much larger Game drive (E-Drive) where I loaded all my games.

When OOTP-9 came out, I relocated the Sports Interactive files over to my E-Drive. I believe that this was the original cause of my problems last year with OOTP-9 (I don't think that it could find the data).

I gave up a year of playing OOTP in the hopes that I could import my OOTP-07 data directly into OOTP-10. Unfortunately OOTP-10 would only allow an import from OOTP-9, so my original data was left out into the cold.

[Now] During my recent upgrade I replaced my hard drives and now have plenty of room. Unless you guys (Battists & Nutlaw) have a better idea, here is the long & painful process that I plan to try to accomplish the fix...

1. Relocate my Sports Interactive files back to the C-Drive.
2. Reinstall OOTP-07 (yes, I still have the file)
3. Reinstall OOTP-9 (yes, I still have the file)
4. Re-download OOTP-10 (But I no longer have the order ID)
5. Import OOTP-07 data into OOTP-9
6. Import OOTP-9 data into OOTP-10

I don't know if this laborious process will work, and I still have to re-acquire my Order IDs from OOTP, but it's the only thing that I can think of that might allow me to rescue my OOTP career unless you guys can come up with a more reasonable solution (like somehow importing my OOTP-07 data directly into OOTP-10).

Can anyone help with this problem?

Can someone at least arrange for me to get my order ID for OOTP-10?

After losing all of last year, hope I don't lose all of this year as well.

Did you contact eLicense for this information? I don't think the folks at OOTP have any real control over this information. In the couple experiences I've had, eLicense has been pretty helpful. Try shooting them an email.

I think the laborious process you described is the only way to do what you want to do.

Good luck. Have you at least tried the 2007 to v9 conversion yet?

Thanks for your reply. I haven't tried the 2007 to v9 conversion yet because I don't know if I can get my v10 elicense back. Never heard of eLicense. Can you tell me more? Thanks again.

Elicense are the people who provide the licence keys for the game. If you email support@elicense.com with details such as your name, the email address you used to buy the game and approximate date they should be able to help you with your licenses.
