So Long, OOTP Mod Squad
I note the apparent passing of OOTP Mod Squad, where I got a number of useful mods in years past. Good job guys, whoever you were. Thanks.

Yeah, but I sort of "grew up" with OOTP Mod Squad. It still had neat stuff that I do not see elsewhere, like Bogart's stadium pack which I have been using through five versions now. (Side note: Five (5) versions already! Three years: 6.5/2006/2007/8/9. Six if you count 6.12 separately. Wow.)

FWIW, I'm not surprised.

And let's hope that Padrefan keeps it going. I've seen a few OOTP related sites come and go (i.e. JoeRock's OOTP site).

I was just about to post a proposal that OOTP host its own mod site when I realized why they could not do so - MLB licensing restrictions. These sites have to be third-party for that reason. This is why I carefully archive everything I download - you never know when a valuable resource is going to disappear on the Internet. (That's also why I don't trust online games or even online licensing services for that matter; I miss the days of having the CD and the activation code printed on the jewel case. Of course, Microsoft upgrading Windows usually poked a hole in that arrangement anyway.)

Just to be clear, it was never my intention to put anyone "out of business." One day in 2005 I got (another) new Mac and wanted to try out the new iWeb application and needed something to create. It was going great until I realized I was going to run out of server space & bandwith quickly. Luckily, Jazzrack came along and gave me the server space and bandwidth I needed.
Anyway, I enjoy helping out, so I hope to be able to do this for as long as the game is around. Al |
