Additional Instructions
If you have tywiggins' Schedule Updater/Year Changer, you can change the year to 2023, rather than the default 2005.
1. When you get to the team select screen, ALT-TAB out of MVP.
2. Load Schedule Updater.
3. Select option 1 and change the year to 2023, and choose if you want players' ages to change.
4. The 2023 season starts on March 30. Follow the utility's instructions to move the date to March 30. (Note: I ran into some issues at the end of the season with the change of date to March 30 at the begining of the. However, no issues were encountered if I just changed the year.)
5. ALT-TAB back into MVP and continue as usual.
NOTE: I had to create a Virtual Machine for it to work this year.

Version History
1.0: March 18, 2023: Initial version.
1.1: March 19, 2023: The "Non-Year Changer" version.
Please keep in mind I don't have MVP Baseball 2005 installed on my regular computer, so it's especially hard to test any mod I make.
Like previous years, there are a few (two) instances of game times still being "TBA." I just estimated, hope that's OK.
Take care,
Dylan
