Thanks Matt. I'm in on Steam and taking about 3 minutes to be up and running.

Errors

Has something been tweaked to change the frequency of errors? I seem to be having more errors in the teams/games imported from 25.

We did rebalance some of the engine values. Errors we may not adjust towards the new baseline (as it wasn't as direct a conversion as some of the other values).

Shout out to OOTP Team

You guys rock! I appreciate all the hard work that goes into this, as I'm sure the last three days make you feel like a tax accountant on April 12 in the US. There's a reason today is always more fun than Christmas morning and it starts with y'all!

Are the MAC links pointing to the correct version please? Downloaded many times and the game still does not start up - cleared cache and still nothing. The above links are taking me to 34 build when earlier it was taking me to 38 build. Am I doing something wrong?

Is there a recommendation for what we can do to readjust to the new baseline?

If you are at a point in the season when you can run an auto-calc, that is the best resolution, it should rebase virtually all the ratings.

Otherwise, on import, I believe many of the values we will adjust automatically (ie, we re-based the OF assist modifier). The errors one it looks like we do not adjust automatically, we may look to add that to imports in the future. For now, you could probably move it partway towards a value of 1 (ie. if it was set to like 2.5 before, you can put it back to maybe 1.5, or maybe even less)

They should point to the correct location. You may want to clear your downloads folder of old install files, and then download it again, to make sure you have the full and correct version, and then be sure to install that. Also when you get the choice for where to install, be sure to install to the location you used before - sometimes you could install to a new spot and the link on your desktop may point to an old install.
