How to get file into '18

Fresh Install)
1.) Delete any old files. They will be located in user/documents/Out of the Park Developments/OOTP 18/Saved_Games folder. They will have a .lg extension.
2.) Create a folder in the Saved_Games folder called NDL.lg
3.) Download the following folder: http://ndlootp.com/game/lgfile/ndl.tar.gz
4.) Extract the ndl.tar.gz file into the NDL.lg folder. (you may need a program such as WinZip/WinRaR to do this.)
5.) If you now have an NDL.tar file, you will need to extract that into the NDL.lg folder.
6.) Look in the NDL.lg folder, if there is a settings folder, continue to step 6. If not, create a folder called: settings
7.) Download the GM Account Access file: http://ndlootp.com/game/Other_Data/accountsdata_gms.dat
8.) Place the accountsdata_gms.dat file into the settings folder. (Be sure this is named properly)

Says there's no file on the server.

Says there's no file on the server.

Did you try option 2?

Or import our file when you went to '18?

Let me know.

[shel311]

No, I did not import

[Cnasty]

Can someone that did check for me please?

Shel, try option 2?

[shel311]

I'm working on importing now to do option 1.

[Cnasty]

Cool

Anyone that is successful in getting the file, just post so we know its not an export or file issue on my end.

Thanks

[cougnix]

17 or 18?

[Cnasty]

17 or 18?

[shel311]

How long does this import typically take?

I'm on about 10 minutes now.

[Cnasty]

Yea, do option 2.

A couple hours at least.

[dusters06]

So i imported from previous version, went to download file and got "could not open archive file"

[cougnix]

17 or 18?

It's a serious question. Are we supposed to download the new file on 17 and convert to 18?

[Cnasty]

'18

But you either have to import '17 to '18 or Option B above.

You can't do option A unless you imported but even then there seems to be issues at least kevin is saying.

I can't remember which season we converted '15 to '17, anyone remember as i want to find those instructions.

[Cnasty]

From what I found, you can't do option A.

It needs to be option B.

[cougnix]

It's seems that you would be the only one that would convert to 18. Then everyone else would have to download the files from the link and place in the 18 folders

[nick]

downloading a file.

[shel311]

Using Option B, I get this error message:

OOTP cannot load this database because it has been created with an earlier version of OOTP. Please use the button "Import OOTP 17" to import the database.

[Cnasty]

So i imported from previous version, went to download file and got "could not open archive file"

On the opening OOTP '18 screen, you clicked "Import OOTP 17 game", imported our NDL.lg file and you still got this message?

Trying to figure this out.

[Cnasty]

downloading a file.

What did you do?
