This is amazing... game-changing levels of amazing.

Mariners re-signed Mitch Garver to a minor league contract. Astros signed INF CJ Alexander to a minor league contract. Blue Jays claimed IF Ben Cowles off waivers from the Cubs.

5 out of 10, 60 seconds. Again a bad day. This has been a forgettable week.

It won't be too much longer before I release this update to Geomlb87's 1997 Ken Griffey Jr.'s total conversion mod. I am shooting for some time in March. After I finish the 4-remaining team facepacks, I will be moving on to the 61, 1998 rookies that are currently in the free agent bin to their respective AAA teams for the franchise mode version of the roster. Then, since I finally figured out how to correct the skin tone for the non-Caucasian players, I will be doing that also, then release the updated roster along with over 500 re-numbered real player faces. If anyone is interested in that list of the players from 1997 season of color, here it is: Players of color.xlsx

WOW! This is incredible! With what Kccitystar is doing and now this, MVP Baseball 2005 may live on for another 20 years. Question, is any of this possible for MLB 2k12? I really can't stand how the older, original players name is always said when the pitcher is warming up or the batter is coming to the plate in that game.

Ok gotcha, either way, it's great news for the entire community of this amazing game.

This is a great discovery and a great improvisation for the game! Congrats!

Yes! We can create audio files for the teams, for example, if there’s a Total Classics mod with the 1994 Montreal Expos a “The 1994 Montreal Expos” audio can be done on this AI (or any team name). This can also be used to update minor league team audios, and other Total Conversion mods like MVP Caribe, Asia, Cuba and so on.

So with this it would make it easier to create audio from classic teams? for example: the audio files for the Montreal Expos???

It can be updated, but I wouldn’t recommend it, as play-by-play audio files are extremely sensitive to modify. Player names (booth and PA), stadium names, and team names are much safer to edit.

Amazing stuff!

Does this mean that in addition to player names, the play-by-play could also be updated?

This is a new level of modding. I found that info by chance.

This is special

6 out of 10, 102 questions. From question one to nine I struggled. Number ten was thrown at me because it was so easy (In 1977 what game number was it where Reggie Jackson hit his three home runs?)

I don't know what to say. This is beautiful!! I am especially impressed with how Kuiper said Yoshinobu Namamoto as if his name was part of the original out-of-the-box assortment of players that were said by Kuiper and Krukow. Thank you Hector and thank you to Omardj38 for showing you this. I got a feeling this is really going to take off.

7/10 104 seconds, long questions today...

Padres signed RHP Griffin Canning to a one-year contract. White Sox signed INF Darren Baker to a minor league contract. Braves signed 1B Dominic Smith to a minor league contract

Hello everyone, For years, creating player audio for MVP Baseball has been one of the most time-consuming and frustrating parts of modding. That changes today. In recent days, an open-source artificial intelligence called Voicebox has been released. After using several apps of this kind, I’ve found that Voicebox is a great option for cloning the voices of Duane Kuiper and Mike Krukow. Additionally, this AI runs locally on your computer, with no subscriptions or payments required. To do this, I recorded a few Kuiper voice clips with a duration of 30 seconds, which is the maximum allowed by this AI. Here's the .mp3 file I used so you can generate his voice as well. The AI will also ask you for the audio transcript, which is included below so you can simply copy and paste it. Duane Kuiper.mp3 file used: Duane Kuiper.mp3 Reference text: Once Kuiper's voice generation is complete, the AI will begin installing Qwen3-TTS, a 3+ GB file. After that, you’ll be able to generate unlimited audio for free. In my case, it takes approximately five minutes to generate the audio from the prompt entered. Here are two examples of created audio: Game intro: Game intro for MVP Baseball using Voicebox.mp4 Player names: Player names for MVP Baseball using Voicebox.mp4 This new tool will drastically reduce the time required to create player audio while maintaining proper pronunciation and fluidity, something that didn’t exist in the past due to the tedious process of extracting the original MVP 05 files and mixing them. This way, we’ll be able to produce (in record time) the three audio clips each player has: Kuiper full name, Kuiper last name, and Krukow last name. The same applies to creating team names for Total Conversion Mods and updating stadium names. The possibilities are endless. I’m sharing this so we can start experimenting and take MVP Baseball to the next level in terms of name narration fluidity. Feel free to share any progress or experiments you make with this AI or any other. Thank you @omardj38 for introducing me to this tool! -HFLR
