*** PATCH 4.0b RELEASED ***

Markus Heinsohn · 03-14-2002, 12:17 PM

Here it is, enjoy:
<a href="http://www.ootpbb.com/files/ootp40b.zip" target="_blank">http://www.ootpbb.com/files/ootp40b.zip</a>
<a href="http://www.informatech.de/files/ootp/ootp40b.zip" target="_blank">http://www.informatech.de/files/ootp/ootp40b.zip</a>

Fixes:
- Improved trading AI
- Improved unearned runs logic
- Improved player development algorythms
- Improved stealing AI
- Fixed some PbP glitches
- Tweaked attendance logic, the fan interest now decreases faster in poor seasons when it's 80+
- Changing pitchers role is no longer possible during the season or
the free agent bidding period!
- Importing an OOTP 3 league does no longer reset the fan loyalty and market size
- Fixed a rare bug that caused pitchers to continue to pitch even when they've been pinch-hit for.
- Improved defensive AI when playing the infield in
- Tweaked contract extension AI, players are now a little more patient if you make bad offers
- Players with a high "play for winner" rating will no longer dislike your organization if you were in the playoffs the previous year
- Increased pitcher endurance in non-modern era settings
- Increased the effect of position player fatigue slightly
- Fixed magic number bug
- Fixed squeeze bunt bug

OK, have a good one, I'll take a little break now

So I just unzip it to my OOTP4 file?

spleen1015 · 03-14-2002, 12:57 PM

Yep. The readme tells you that

Got it

Thanks Markus !!

Rose14 · 03-14-2002, 01:37 PM

U-D-Man, Markus! Thanks!

Ahhh, to be 25 again...

Dan Lorenzen · 03-14-2002, 01:46 PM

Well I can't help but to be disappointed that my main gripe, as a OOTP manager type, the really bizarre sac bunt decisions by the AI hasn't been addressed. But, oh well, hope it's fixed in the next patch..

Happy Birthday BTW...

Oldlamp · 03-14-2002, 01:49 PM

Thanks, Markus...

Happy Birthday!!

Hey, I just turned 25 yesterday, 3/13. And you've already produced 4 versions of a great baseball sim - incredible.

What have I done with my life?

sianews · 03-14-2002, 03:16 PM

Damn. Was in the 3rd round of the draft, the game crashed top desktop. I loaded back up, I was in round 1, but all the players taken previosly were gone. There goes 3 hours of play

I was worried for a minute, you didn't mention the career SLG % being fixed, but it is!
