Latest file. Unzip and place the .txt file in the data\misc folder.

NOTE: This file is not endorsed by OOTPD or MLB.

But a lot of us a familiar with your attention to detail...it may not be endorsed, but it'll be a great add-on. Thank you!

Thanks much for this! Missed it when it came out, but I'm looking forward to seeing what's in here.

I feel really dumb, but for the life of me I cannot figure out where the expanded hints file goes -- cannot find the correct folder.

misc folder

File updated for OOTP24.

does it contain everything from the released file AND your additions?
Still shocked that devs haven't released a way to community source robust pbp and news files

pstrickert · 03-29-2023, 10:44 PM

I believe so.

pstrickert · 03-15-2024, 07:56 PM

File updated for OOTP25.

File updated.

Just so that people have a sense of the enormity of effort here, I present side-by-side the two files: on the left, the modded hints_english.txt file and on the right, the original file.

Click the image if you need to in order to see the row counts at the bottom (with word wrap off). That's 5795 items in the modded file versus 922 in the original file (as of OOTP 25).

Where in the bloody heck is that bloody "Thank You" button? After all this time, couldn't OOTPD find a way to bring that back with sufficient security?

Heh, they need to update "Follow us on Twitter." Twitter? What's that?
