Newbie & overwhelmed

gern11 · 06-20-2012, 10:51 AM

Never played OOTP before, just d/l it last night because it looks outstanding. But, upon entry into the game, I was completely overwhelmed (in a good way) by all it has to offer.

One of the first things I wanted to do was splash it up with player photos and ball park photos. I have read the forums a little bit and seen where it says to d/l images in photo folders, etc. I can't seem to find the photo folder.

Is there anywhere that a dense, slow-learning guy can find the step-by-step path to d/l these images?

Thanks in advance for your patiences with the new guy!

I'm away from computer so my directions may not be exact lol. However, look in your "My Do documents" folder. Click on "Out of the Park Developments" icon follow it to your saved games. From there select your game you want caps/pics/jerseys etc for. From there just copy and paste your caps/pics/jerseys to the proper folders. If you have any questions just ask you'll find the OOTP forum a great resource for help and ideas.

Awesome. Can't thank you enough. Will give this a shot. I'm sure this will be the 1st of many return trips to the forum with questions. Thanks again.

Go to OOTP Download Centre in your preferences. There are several Mods in there (images included) you can download directly in game. Once downloaded, you have to install them. The install button is right next to the download button.

Scottiedog & reddawg thx for your help.

Scottiedog · 06-21-2012, 06:00 PM

No prob my pleasure I've played OOTP for several years now. I'm fairly familiar with it. Holler if ya need anything hopefully I can help or find out for ya.

gern11 · 06-21-2012, 09:51 PM

Scottiedog, gotta another question for ya...I see that Citizen Bank Ballpark looks like the default stadium photo. I followed the directions in the ballpark editor but it doesn't appear there are photos of all the MLB ballparks. Do they come with the game and I'm just looking in the wrong place or are they also a file I need to download? Thanks again for the help.

Scottiedog · 06-23-2012, 08:33 PM

There are only like 3 stadiums that come with the game. However, there are a lot of great sites and work done by the guys in the forum. I can only think of blueturf off top of my head. I'm using my phone now sorry. Also, apologize for slow response been a little busy lately.
Anyways, when I get to my pc I'll post a few of the great sites for man.

stadiums pictures by blueturf - Photobucket

Here is a couple nice sites "ootpmods" is a one stop shop for a llot of stuff.
Blueturf's site has some nice stadiums he created.

Also, I added a link to an old thread with a lot of sites. Some are not active anymore. Yet, it's well worth looking through IMO.
