I do trial-and-error adjustments, but it would really be good to know the proper way to do it to fit my needs.

Would appreciate any help you might give.

Hi! Apologies, I'm not sure exactly what you're referring to - is it the 3D Animation Speed? Those settings are in the main Settings at the bottom of the launch page, and run from 'Turtle' to 'Lightning' with 10 other speeds in between. Does that help?

Apologize for not getting back to you... just saw this reply.

I know how to adjust the animation speed... I need help in setting up the 3D views

Do you have a video that goes into detail about how to adjust all these elements seen in the screenshot provided... sorry, I'm too dense to figure it out... it's not an intuitive thing for someone like me that is computer-challenged.

I have adjusted these elements quite a few times, but they are never saved.

Once I have adjusted everything to my liking, will it adjusts all of my parks in my league to these adjustments, if I click on "copy cameras to all parks"?

Would appreciate your help... really love the 3D animation... hope you can help me get the most out of it.

Minor question: why does the time of day change so early?.... my sky gets dark in my stadiums at 3 pm... seems like it would be after 5 pm.
I only play day baseball in my league... games starts at 12 or 1... no night games.

None of my stadiums have dugouts... why are they not there?

Wish you would do a video on how to set up stadium configurations and the 3D animation.

Thanks for the reply.

I like that OOTP is expanding with more personalities and the Baseball Bingo concept is different, but it's so cool. It's a nice change of pace from most broadcasts.
