So......should we talk about our plans to upgrade to 12?

I heard it's got some awesome new features.

I think we should go with this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Out-Park-2-0-PC-...item3a48e56e73

Things have been a little crazy at work recently and I've been out of the loop while all this OOTP X/11 stuff runs its course. Could someone please quickly summarize exactly what the hell's going on right now and when the first offseason export is due?

I’m probably missing some important stuff, but here’s the dime store novel:

1) The conversion wouldn’t take in the previous version - 11.2.18 - Boo!!
2) OOTP released a patch bringing us to 11.2.23 and the league file worked. Yay!!
3) During the conversion the media contracts got inflated - Boo!!
4) There was some initial discussion as to how we were going to handle that and it was decided we would regenerate a new league file with the correct media contracts
5) Andrew was supposed to update the utilities to 11 - Yay!!
6) Andrew destroyed the utilities - Boo!!
7) Present day - conversation about how to handle the financials since we don’t have the cash reserve utility anymore

At this point, we’re waiting for a league file. So no exports are due yet. Anyone else want/need to add anything?

Thanks for the recap, Brad. From the looks of things it appeared we were still in limbo, but I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't missing anything important.

Someday, in the not too distant future, it will be possible to update these games without utterly breaking them. Maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow....but soon....
