Where Are Out of the Park Baseball Saves Located?
OOTP keeps leagues in a versioned folder under Documents, stable across releases, with settings and online leagues beside the saves.
Last updated
Out of the Park Developments uses one of the most stable layouts in sports gaming. Each yearly release gets a versioned folder in Documents, with saved_games for leagues plus settings, mods, and ballparks beside it. Learn it once and every future release works the same.
The version number in the folder name is the part people mistype. Match the installed year exactly rather than reusing last season path. The macOS build mirrors the same Documents tree, so cross platform moves are a straight copy.
Where Out of the Park Baseball stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 26
Leagues live in saved_games inside the versioned folder. Copy the whole game folder, not single leagues, so settings and mods travel too.
~/Documents/Out of the Park Developments/OOTP Baseball 26
Same vendor tree under Documents on Mac. Copy across with the game closed on both ends. Verify the year in the folder name matches the installed game.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move OOTP leagues to a new PC?
Copy the versioned game folder to the same Documents path with the game closed. Leagues, settings, and mods travel together because everything hangs off that one root.
Do old OOTP saves work in the new yearly release?
Yes, when the new install is the same version. Point the new game at the copied folder on first launch. Cross version moves sometimes need the in game import step instead of a raw copy.
Where are online league files in OOTP?
In the saved_games folder inside the versioned directory, one subfolder per league. Commissioners should also keep the league file exports, since those rebuild a league even if the folder copy is partial.
