Steam Workshop bugged?

piggypotpie · 07-22-2025, 01:07 PM

I subscribed to a few OOTP mods on the workshop. I went into the game to open and activate them, but when I try to it gets stuck on the "loading item data". Is this bugged out?

I host many of the items up there and have seen no issues. After subscribing, go back to the game start screen and open Workshop Central, then select the mod on your subscription list. Given the issue, hit download. When downloaded it will have another button saying “install” and do that. At the top of the screen you should see a banner of items moving to files.

If you tell us the mods, we can tell you where to look to ensure the files got there. Or tell us where in the above process it hangs up. Some of the files are big btw.

It appears that I've downloaded them and then clicked to install them, but when I try to access the folder with the ballparks to manually import them there isnt anything there. I go into my program files and I see them there, but cant access them in-game. Should I just manually download them and drop them in the folder?

Go to the main page (when you open the game on Steam), go to Settings, go to the troubleshooting tab, click "Open folder containing customizable data", open the ballparks folder, open the models folder, and see if they are there.

There are a half dozen stadium mods, which one are you trying to install? I have them all subscribed to and this is my folder:

How are you trying to access them? If they are in the folder, they are in the folder. Are you navigating to the proper place to load them? It can be easy to back out too far and lose the handle on where in the directory you are.

Here is where I stary if on the White Sox.

Going one level up shows that list from my previous post.

Choosing a folder shows me the .obj file for the new stadium (in this case an Anaheim one). Selecting and loading that obj file will switch the model.

Sorry for the late response. I'm very confused. In OOTP25 I would go to the team's settings, go to import ballpark and it would bring up a list. One of the selections read "/ballparks" and I would select the prk file I want. When I dod it now it has only a "3d-parks" selection. When I select it the file is empty

The folders for each park is not in /ballparks. They are in a subfolder called /models within the /ballparks folder. Click /models and you will see folders for each park. Inside each is the respective file to select.

OK. What I ended up doing was downloading the ballpark mods manually and then placing them in the ballparks folder.
Here's the next question: How do i select an existing MLB park and assign it for one of my fictional teams? I've looked everywhere in th efiles and I can't find them anywhere.
Thank you all for the help
