Need Help-Installing Gambos Historical Player Photo Pack

cshigh · 07-09-2011, 01:44 PM

I'm starting a league in 1985, and want to use real photos. I have downloaded the .tar file from the site. The league is already created. Where do I put the .tar file? What do I do from there? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

cshigh, I am not familiar with this file, but normally you would use a program that would "extract" or uncompress the .tar file into all the various images that are contained in it. Once they are extracted, you would need to move them into one of two locations. If you want them in a location for when you create a league, I believe you would put them in the PHOTOS directory where you installed OOTP12. If you've already created a game and saved it, I think you need to move the files into your saved games folder, under the name you gave your saved game. Inside that folder, I think you would put thiem in NEWS/HTML/IMAGES. Hopefully that's the right answer.
