Template Wizard
OOTP has a template feature that allows you to save a league as a template to be reused again later. See the section of the online manual about templates for more detailed information about OOTP's template function. If you already have templates saved, you can use the Template Wizard to quickly create a league based on a previously created template. There are two steps in the Template Wizard:

Step 1 - Load a World Template
In Step 1 of the Template Wizard, you select the template that you wish to use, and then click Load Template.

Template Wizard Step 1

Step 2 - Manager Settings
In Step 2 of the Template Wizard, you define your manager identity, name, and a starting year for your file.

Template Wizard Step 2

First, select a name, nationality, and birth date for your manager.

Next, select a team to manage. During league creation, you can choose to manage any team in your league. You can choose to start unemployed, but be careful - once you start the game, you are at the mercy of team owners, who might not want to hire a greenhorn like you! Read more about human manager identities in OOTP for more information.

Next, decide whether or not to play in Commissioner Mode. If the Play in Commissioner Mode check box is selected, this manager is also the commissioner and has the ability to interact with the game in many ways that managers can't.

Finally, enter a name for your saved game, and select a starting year for your game.

When you are done, click Start Game! OOTP will process all the information you have selected and drop you onto the Manager Home page. If you want to add more leagues into this world, you can do so through the Game Setup option (OOTP Menu >> Game Setup).
