Trying to play OOTP 16, but serial number in purchase email is not working

jpontzer93 · 02-17-2024, 09:27 PM

I'm trying to activate my OOTP 16 again on a new computer. I have the order email from way back in 2015, which has the serial number. However using the number will not work to activate the game, as it says that the Esellerate servers are down (I don't believe they exist anymore).

I sent an email to support earlier this week without a response. If anyone has any advice on how to get my game up and running, or how to get Support@ootpdevelopments.com to reply, please let me know!

We have a DRM free version of OOTP 16 available (32-bit).

https://cdnfiles.ootpdevelopments.co...isc/ootp16.exe

Installation instructions:

-Install original OOTP 16 if not already done. For example using this installer: http://cdnfiles.ootpdevelopments.com...otp16setup.exe
-locate the executable file ootp16.exe, should be in Program Files\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 16\
-rename that file to any other name to save it
-copy the new ootp16.exe file into the same folder where you found the original ootp16.exe
-start OOTP 16 using the desktop icon as usual
-if it doesn't run, you might need to install the VS2019 runtime, for example from here: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe
