Installing on Linux

To install the game on Linux, follow these steps

  1. Download the game. After this step is completed, you should have a file called ootp13linuxsetup.bin saved somewhere on your computer. (We suggest you place this file in the temp directory under your user's home directory.)

  2. Using a terminal window, navigate to the above mentioned file and and make sure that you have execute permissions (i.e. the file is executable). If not, modify the file permissions appropriately. If you are unfamiliar with this procedure, please refer to the Knowledgebase article entitled Troubleshooting OOTP on Linux.

  3. After modifying the permissions on the installer file, execute the install program by using the full path name to the installer file at the command prompt or using ./ootp13linuxsetup.bin at the command prompt from the directory containing the file ootp13linuxsetup.bin. The setup program will launch and bring you to the License Agreement screen.

  4. Read the License Agreement. Click the 'I Agree' radio button. You will be taken to the Installation Folder screen.

  5. If you want to use the default destination folder (highly recommended), you can just select the desired shortcuts you want. Click Install and skip to Step 7 below.

  6. If you want to change the destination folder, modify the path as appropriate, and click Install.

  7. The installation program will start. Sit back and relax as it completes the installation.

  8. When the installation completes, click the Finish button. You are ready to start enjoying some baseball goodness!

  9. Double-click the OOTP icon to launch the game. If you have not yet purchased a license, you can do so now, or you can play the game in demo mode. If you have already purchased a license, use these instructions from our Knowledge Base to install your license.
