How about updating the default batting stances for 2K12 this year? I have been playing this game since it first came out, and the batting stances have never changed. Some of those default players have LONG since retired. I know there are not as many modders these days, but some fresh changes in that area would be nice. Just a mod request from a big fan of the game.

Yup, still alive and kicking

I guarantee that 99% of you will have never heard of this mod and 100% of you will not be familiar with the guy who made this. This is called the Custom Organ mod and it was made by The_Betz. (See, I told you that none of you ever heard of him. This is mainly because he has no posts to his credit and that he has not been here in almost sixteen years. Heck, I’ve never had a chance to talk to him and I have been using this mod since he released it in 2006. It brings an organ sound into your game.) This mod replaces rallydat.big file into the data\audio\cd\rally folder. You can download this mod right here.

I've got a monitor that has a setting to simulate a square screen. If I don't select the square setting the game automatically stretches to fit the widescreen and all the graphics are short and wide. I found a guy selling brand new retro PCs on ebay with fresh Windows XP SP3 installed. They are a little bit more expensive than trying to do a build on used hardware, but I'm pleased. The card is NVIDIA GeForce Quadro K620 w 2GB RAM. https://www.ebay.com/itm/353685934101 Maybe I did somehow switch the teams but I thought it was Cards vs Cubs when I first loaded it up. I'm not gonna re-install it to check, but I'm running off a legit copy of the CD I bought for $80. After doing this build and seeing the difference in graphics between the original game and after the 5 patches I would definitely not enjoy a cracked version of the game where you can't install the patches. The patches are necessary for the throws to look smooth without stuttering. I did also set up this game on Dolphin and it's incredible. There are shaders and enhancements that improve the graphics. Of course the downside is no mods. I also found one difference in the gameplay. The GC version of this game doesn't have "quick pickoff throw". There is just the regular pickoff move. Otherwise I think they are exactly the same as far as I can tell. The GC game was the one I was playing 20 years ago when I first fell in love with it. It's such a fun game to play. Main thing, though, is that I can't play the game on my modern PC. I tried SafeDiskShim + DGVoodo2 and still did not work even with those hacks. My XP build is also off the internet and will never be online. The Retro PC is kind of fun, and it's nice knowing it will always be able to play the game because there won't be any updates to the OS, drivers, etc. Everything is locked in place sort of like a time capsule from 2005. But, I still would like to have it running on the modern PC if possible. I don't know why it didn't work for me with SafeDiskShim and DGVoodo2. I still get Black Screen, Blue circle, Back to Desktop. I've kind of given up and I can just play on the dedicated computer, but willing to try things if anyone posts more solutions to the problem of playing this game on Win 11. Does the resolution changer mod stretch the graphics? I thought I read somewhere that unless you play on square e.g. 1260x1024 then it will stretch the graphics and players will look short and wide.

4 out of 10, 69 seconds. I knew I did bad but not that bad today!

You had better check this isn't for MVP 2004 or 2003. Or for the consoles because that is the cheapest price I have ever heard for this game. Best of luck of course.

I ended up scoring another copy. That listing on eBay is down to $7.74 now!

When you pick a favourite team, it'll be against the Cardinals if it's an NL team. I'm not sure about AL.

I live about 35 miles from MIT, so like the Yankees, I contracted one of their physicists to study how I use the mouse and to develop the torpedo mouse. If I keep getting good scores like I did today, he'll be filing a patent application soon.

Continuing on with the beanings.....

Wow, they made out good!

Phillies re-signed INF Buddy Kennedy to a minor league contract. Braves acquired RHP Michael Petersen from the Angels for cash. Astros acquired RHP Nick Robertson from the Blue Jays for RHP Edinson Batista. Phillies claimed RHP Brett de Geus off waivers from the Marlins.

When I looked at the link again last night, the price had dropped from $29.99 to $20. Someone got a real bargain!
