Just bought OOTP8
Hey all,
I just purchased OOTP8 last night and had a question. Is it just like previous games in which I need to download some file in order to do Historical Leagues? The last version I had before this was OOPT6 and I know I had to download something in order to get all the players and what not from year to year. |

Also wondering what you guys thought of the game. I liked 6 a lot and am hoping for more of the same.
Also, if there is a website I need to go to in order to download stuff, please let me know. I appreciate it! |

OOTP 4 was great, OOTP 5 was great, OOTP 6 was great, OOTP 6.5 was great, OOTP 2006 was horrible, OOTP 2007 is great. OOTP8 is basically just OOTP'07 with a few improvements. I'm not going to get OOTP8, but I thoroughly enjoy OOTP 2007. Well worth the price of admission.

You can go to the mod site to get player pics and logos, if you want. |

Ok now I'm having a problem...
I tried to do a historical league and tried to start in 1910... Do I have to change the "path to database" in order to make it work? I tried two times in a row to do it and whenever I tried to go to the next step, the game crashed on me. Can anyone help? |

Too bad you haven't gotten a response. I don't have OOTP8 so I can't really give you an answer. In theory, I would think that if OOTP8 comes with the database you wouldn't have to change a thing. Seems like that isn't the case for you however. Try asking in the New To The Game forum.

Just follow the manual on how to add mods. However, the built-in database is a nice touch and is current through the end of 2007. For a really easy start for the MLB 2007 season, load the game with the MLB 2007 quick start that is found in the game (OOTP 08). You'll start with current rosters, full rosters and everything ready to play for the 2007 season.
