Creating Archive

thompsw8 · 02-15-2009, 11:57 AM

Question for someone. I have been running my league letting everyone import and export in game. Well all of a sudden I can create files but when I click on create archive it says it can't find the folder to create archive. What do I do to fix this?

Don't know if this will give anyone any ideas but this started when i had to put this file on my laptop instead of my desktop. Never had any problems till I put on my laptop. This is frustrating because I have to archive and send a file out every sim and no one can get it without downloading it off site.

I'm not positive, but it sounds like you're having an issue with the folders on your own computer like you're missing your import/export folder (in Vista something like C:\Users\[username]\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 9\saved_games\[leaguename].lg\import_export).

kq76 is exactly right. Vista stores everything differently. OOTP remembers file paths and if your move the league from Vista to XP or XP to Vista, the game can't find anything. If you are running a historical league, you'll have even more trouble when the game tries to import rookies fro a database it can't find.
