05-21-2010 Roster AND Portrait Update

   (3 reviews)

About This File

These files will set the MLB rosters to official current rosters of 5/21/2010, and also change all of the portraits that MVP Modders have uploaded to date.

For example, rookie Austin Jackson's portrait will appear in all of its awesome glory when you play with the Tigers.

and Curtis Granderson...[sob]...will STILL be wearing...a Yankee hat. Unless....

(good blog where I got that from: http://roarofthetigers.wordpress.com)

They are NOT, and I repeat NOT for use to start a franchise with. If you wish to start a franchise with current rosters and still use this mod, I will tell you below how to do that, but it's complicated.

Let me write that again in bold.

They are NOT, and I repeat NOT for use to start a franchise with.

Next time I'm busting out <h1> tags. Don't think I won't do it.

I will try to continue to update the portrait file with the rosters as the year progresses, but the pain-in-the-butt-itude of doing so may prevent me.

Step 1: BACK UP YouR FILES

Step 2: Portrait.iff and portrait.cdf go in your MLB 2K10 folder, most likely C:\Program Files\2K Sports\MLB 2K10

Step 3: Roster.ROS goes in your saves folder under Application Data. For Windows XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\[YOUR USER NAME]\Application Data\2K Sports\Major League Baseball 2K10\Saves

Now, if you want to start a franchise with the current rosters, DO NOT replace your Roster.ROS file, just the Portrait files.

Allow MLB2K10 to download the current rosters.

Next, start your franchise, and save it.

Close MLB2K10

Now, you will need tywiggins' roster editor. In the roster editor, open your newly created franchise.

Now find the following players and change their "Portrait" value to the following:

Jeff Clement 9258

Allen Craig 9005

Ian Desmond 9058

Brian Duensing 9305

Jim Edmonds 9301

Jaime Garcia 9201

Craig Gentry 9001

Luke Gregerson 9254

Mark Grudzielanek 9009

Jason Heyward 9109

Austin Jackson 9154

Kenshin Kawakami 9209

Brad Kilby 9150

Mike Lamb 9250

Rodrigo Lopez 9344

Colby Lewis 9244

Joe Mather 9019

John Raynor 9044

Ben Sheets 9219

Scott Sizemore 9144

Greg Smith 9040

Craig Stammen 9240

Steven Strasburg 9340

Mitch Talbot 9248

Jake Westbrook 441

Jordan Zimmerman 9115

Brennan Boesch 9315

Brad Thomas 9164

Starlin Castro 9183

Aroldis Chapman 9264

Chapman is in, but since he isn't in the official rosters yet you have to create a player then change the portrait to that number. Of course, to care you would probably be a Reds fan, in which case, dude, Opening Day is over, man; how do the Bengals look this year?

I tried this method twice and played two games (both spring training) without getting the crash to desktop. Let me know if you have problems and I will change the README file to not mention the thing about starting a franchise anymore.

Thanks for these packs with both the headshots and the roster. Makes it much easier for the people with download limits.

The updated rosters should download directly from 2KSports, actually. The roster file I've included is the same thing, except for the changes I made to the portrait values. The rosters' tendency to crash Franchises is a 2KSports problem, unfortunately (the franchise can't handle all the players currently on the DL)

Read above. You need to download a roster editor, but yes, there's a way around it.

Hey Misopogon. I have read above and i have the roster editor but i'm still confused on what the fix is? are you saying that if we remove so many people from the DL it'll fix the issue?
