About This File
NOTE: THIS IS AN MLB ONLY ROSTER!
NOTE 2: I've replaced the player IDs for those who don't have any kind of an accurate portrait with the default team portraits I had made previously. I took those down but reposted them (portraits downloads section). You may want to install them. If portraits are made for any of these players, ID nos. can always be easily changed back.
Great thanks to Laroquece for keeping up with roster moves throughout the year (you have no idea how much time that saved me as the roster moves and changes were especially tedious this year)!
Also, thanks to Ballfour who made some great generic upgrades for us in the facial hair department. A great little touch that brings a little more realism to the game!
This roster is a culmination of all of the updates done throughout the year including defensive ratings, batting ratings, pitcher styles, types, speed and trajectories, hot/cold zones, player speeds, etc. Many newer players added/created as best as possible. This may be the most complete roster update I've done.
Start of season will include players who were expected to be on the Opening Day roster had they not been placed on a short injured reserved list. Players on longer IRLs should still be in the organization (e.g., Scooter Gennett, etc.). Rosters have been tested and sim the season successfully as well as in-game play.
If you find any mistakes (batting stances, pitching styles, jersey numbers, etc.), please PM me and I'll include the fixes, if warranted, in the next update, or if there are enough I'll upload another version. If there are a multitude of moves between this release date and 3/28/19, I'll publish an addendum update.
Since "Placeholder" players (last name) were put in to fill the empty slots, these rosters can be used with injuries and suspensions set to "ON" without crashing. Most every team has 24-25 players.
If you want to use these rosters to create another version or a roster incorporating MiLB, just ask (as someone already has in reference to a standard only roster). If you are thinking of making a MiLB roster set, you can alter the existing "Placeholder" players.
INSTALLATION: Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\EA SPORTS\MVP 2005 (or whatever you named it)\data\database subfolder. DELETE the existing 19 .dat files. Unzip this roster file to that location. DO NOT SIMPLY OVERWRITE!
**If you're going to give feedback, please make it intelligent. If you don't know what you're doing or you're one of the only few who is having trouble, then don't leave me negative feedback. Ask questions in the comments area or PM me!! Thanks.
