Need CBL Roster HELP!

savefenway · 04-16-2004, 09:52 PM

Hello,

I know how to set up OOTP5 with the Lahman database 5.1. But I want to set up my new OOTP6 with the 2004 CBL rosters. Can someone please tell me how to do this step by step?

Thank you very much! Good luck everyone.

Download the rosters, then you will need WinZip or a similar program to open them. You do not need to create a folder to unzip them into, as that will be done automatically. I would suggest unzipping them right into the OOTP6 folder. Whatever you name the folder will become the name of the league.....you can rename the folder anything you want, as long as it has ".lg" at the end (without the quotes). Then, start up the game, go to "Open League" under file, and open up the league with whatever name you used on the folder......that should be it!

Is there anyway to use the CBL rosters in the manager mode?

yep, just start a new manager career!

Your SET.

PLEASE keep in mind however once you start a manager mode career, you CANNOT edit anything major. So make sure everything is the way you like it!!!!
