Important: This patch is only for OOTP 23 versions which were purchased directly from us or resellers who use our version. It is also available via the Steam client with the public password below.
It is NOT compatible with the Mac OSX AppStore or Epic version!

Hi everybody!

The last patch introduced a couple of issues that we wanted to fix, so here is a new public beta, version 23.8.97. If there are no issues, it will be released tomorrow.

Use this at your own risk! Please back up important league files before loading them in this beta. This patch is compatible with the previous patch for online leagues - exports will work between versions, however both clients and the commish need to update to benefit from the online league fixes.

Changelist (23.8.97):
Fixed Live Start in the middle of a series scheduling extra games
Fixed issue with relative ratings lowering ratings too much
Fixed PT pants loading bug
Fixed St. Louis pants filenames
Fixed uniform texture files loading function
Moved “offer contract” button above free agents pictures

How to access the beta on Steam:

Quit OOTP 23 if it's running.
Open Steam client -> Library
Right click on Out of the Park Baseball 23
Click on "Properties" at the bottom of the menu
Click on the beta tab. Here, enter the following code / password: ootp23betapt
Click on "Check code"
Open the beta pull-down and select "publicbeta".
Close the Steam client (Steam menu -> Exit)
Open the client again. It should then download the beta build.

Update Info for our webstore customers: To apply the update, simply download the setup file and install it over your current installation. There is no need to uninstall or unlicense your current copy! However, you should quit the game before installing it, of course. Updates always contain all the changes from previous updates. Saved games are compatible between different versions.

Download link for PC Beta (Fastspring Webstore Version):
Main server: PC Installer

Here's a PC installer (Fastspring) that installs into a single folder, which is useful for external HDs for example. Or for creating a second test install of the game, so you can try the patch out without the risk of messing up your main install of the game if something is wrong in the patch:
PC Single Folder Installer

Download link for Mac (FastSpring):
Main Server: Mac OSX Installer

Please post here if you have any issues or if you run into major bugs. Thanks!

Cheers,
The OOTP Team
