retiring

[createbaseball]

I've done uni's, faces, stadiums, rosters and portraits...and am currently working on Down on the Farm V6.

But MVP Baseball has gotten completely out of my hands, and nothing I can do seems to fix the problem. Each time I add a face to my Models.big and add the number in MVPedit to test it before posting to this site, my game crashes.

The faces work...I go to Edit Rosters and see the face, take the screen shot, etc. But when I try to play a game, it crashes after selecting the stadium. I use Install.bats up to 3000 and then have used EAgraph and EAZIP to install.

Cant figure it.

Almost seems like an MVPedit problem, like if I make roster moves.

so...unless I can figure this out, I am out of the modding business. I would like to get a clean version of this game running so I can enjoy it and not have to reload every other day.

If anyone has any insight, or has gone through this...please lend me a hand.

thanks guys...

I totally understand......I almost gave up......I don't mod and I don't use uniforms or stadium mods(computer too slow).......I have, however, had success with the faces.....I used bigshmooz's method, and I have all the faces installed without any crashes......the sequence is very delicate, and any one mistake can lead to a big problem

1. Uncheck "read only" for models.big

2. Open EAgraph

3. Import the three files for one face (fsh ord orl)

4. Close EAgraph

5. Open Biggui

6. Compress the three files one at a time

7. Close Biggui

8. Check "read only" for models.big (before you open MVPedit)

9. Open MVPedit

10. Make the proper adjustments in MVPEdit and export

11. Check your work in the home run showdown

I think what is most important is using each program one at a time (closing one before you open another)......the other is, don't have MVPEdit open while Models.big is uncheck for "read only".....I think that is causing major problems

You'll probably have to start with a fresh models.big, and the process if very tedious, but I'm convinced it does work....I won't say "don't give up", because I myself want to stop waithing for faces and start my season......but good luck, and thanks for the good work

the same BS was happening to me, then RamBully told me basicalle the same method that rosco just mentioned, and it worked!

thanks bodhiball, you've come up with some great mods, greatly appreciate it

Since my name was mentioned in this, I have to say that I no longer use the method with biggui. I used to do that but I have found that with eazip & eagraph.exe to do the importing, it works fine. I just always make sure as mentioned here that other than when I am actually doing the importing of faces, I always keep my models.big in read only status. This is key.

Ever since I have done this, I have not experienced even one crash in the game, (though I did experience 3 freezeups. But even those, thanks G-D have not happened in a while) & I probably have the largest models.big of anybody on this site. (except for those that have downloaded my mod LOL)
