billjames Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Look at the first post. apologize and thanks for the heads up. FVCKING AWESOME guys! And Swingin, I know you are doing the rosters but as pointed out before, yours do not have total minors. Will someone be updating the Ultimate Rosters project throughout or are you going to work on maybe bringing his minors over to yours? Can you even do that?

Sean O Posted November 28, 2005 Author Share Posted November 28, 2005 Updated UncleMo's inclusion in the project on the first page, and a note to everyone: I would refrain from uploading CTS screens, rosters, etc. so we can release the entire project under one installer when it is finished. Obviously some aspects will need to be released sooner rather than later (the stadiums, specifically), but if it's under the MVP06 banner, I would love to keep it unique until final release. I figure there's going to be a pretty heavy beta period where we'll take respected volunteers to test everything out, but it would be nice to keep it rather under wraps until then. Sound good?

SwinginSoriano Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 A Beta period sounds good, possibly we can have an officially release date. How about... SPRING TRAINING 2006! We should have all of this work smoothely so people don't have to worry about tinkering much when they download 06. About my rosters and total minors: - I am not a believer in 'total minors'. If someone takes my roster and makes it a total minors roster, they are welcome to do so. But, it is hard to accurately portray major league players, let alone minor leaguers. I do not know every minorleaguer in depth, the result of a total minors would be a bunch of real names with a bunch of made-up attributes and pitches. This is not what I want. I want accuracy, and I am doing my best to get everything right on the major league level with the pictures and videos provided by MLB.com and my own extensive viewing of MLB games. - The 'star power' system (player potential) affects the player rating. Players can get severely overrated if given good star power, thus it would force all the 'top prospects' into the higher levels despite the fact they should not be ready. I tried to minimize this problem as much as possible in my roster, by lacking much of the over-hyped and not close to ready minor leaguers I am able to make everything more fair. An example of this is Justin Verlander in my roster. He is one of the best pitching prospects in baseball and he has the 5 star rating. This creates a problem, he is rated higher than most established pitchers just because of his potential. The CPU will put Verlander into the Tigers' rotation despite the fact he should be in double A. My roster will be more like an EA roster, just MLB players and minor leaguers who already saw major league action. Few who had not seen MLB action are just on teams' 40 man rosters already. - All established major league players have been given average to awesome star power. (3-5) People who I feel may bounce up and down may be given the 'some' (2) rating. Aaron Small, for example, despite having a good 2005 will be given a 'some' rating due to his position on the Yankees. He will bounce up and down between the majors and minors, and likely not repeat his previous season. - Of course non-MLBPA players like Bonds, Millar, Menchino, Lidle, (Jamie) Walker, and pals are included. - When I release the first Beta rosters in January, I will have a big list of the top rated players. That will be useful for assembling new all-star teams for MVP 06. - I used my 2005 (MVP 2004) rosters as a base, not Totte's Ultimate Rosters. I do not believe in stealing others' works. For some reason when I announced my 2006 roster, I have not got any offers to collaborate on a 2006 roster. I guess this roster will come with MVP 06 (and updated versions can be available for download alone after the big MVP 06 file is out), and the Ultimate Rosters are available throughout the off-season and for other platforms other than PC. I have never seen Totte's UR (I am still a MVP 2004 owner awaiting Jeeper's MVP 2005...) so I have never made any judgements on his roster. I am sure it is a great roster due to its immense popularity. I guess it is completion (ultimate minors) versus overhauled attributes and accuracy.

UncleMo Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 When I'm done, who do I turn my work into? Who is the head honcho over all of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean O Posted November 28, 2005 Author Share Posted November 28, 2005 I guess SS and I are the two main folks in charge (Yankees and Sox fan, how fitting). We aren't really at the point of getting everything together yet, so I'd just hold on tight for now until we figure that out. Maybe we can have someone who has computer but no mod experience be in charge of getting everything together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I'll be toying with the audio to change the crowd mods. No definites, but I'll toy around with it through January (I'll be moving soon which will take up some time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Who headed up TC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I guess Sean O and I, possibly sending files to both of us, just to have it on more than one computer just in case. Can you get some screenies of the new generic faces? I guess you can PM us for our email addresses if they aren't available anywhere here... Another idea: possibly we should email files to KC, he is making the installer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billjames Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Can you guys also make things individual? I dont know if I want everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 After the big file is released, I'm sure the individual files could be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JWClubbie Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I would love to be apart of Minor League Mods. Like the new team unis, logos etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billjames Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 are peoples ages and contracts and their decline going into this as well? Will they be updated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherguy619 Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 when you guys redo the minors, can you extend their contracts so 75% of the minor leaguers are not potental free agents. and so minor leaguers who think they are MLB material will not ask for MLB contracts when its only been one year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Ages and contracts are a big part of my roster, there is more information in the official thread. http://www.mvpmods.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=15740.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 "Can you get some screenies of the new generic faces?" After photoshopping them, yeah, I'll do a promo pic if that is what you mean. Otherwise, you all can see them in the thread titled: YOU PICK THE MOD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Oh, okay. I wonder what they look like in 2X... Just one more thing... Is there anyway possible that we can make a better generic Asian face? (496/906) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 So I worked on the Busch II mod a little on the weekend and got burnt out quickly. So, Sean, I was wondering, if I send you the day file in the next month or so can you work on the walls and the collision data. I am getting fried trying to figure out were the walls go. By that time I hope to have many things worked out. We'll see. I cannot issue a more true statement than saying the seating will not be correct. I am not rebuilding the entire stadium, so most of the work will be done from foul pole to foul pole. I figure that is the area seen by most people in the game.

UncleMo Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 (496/906) what does that mean? And, I agree with you on the asian generic face. I may change that from 04 and many people detest the 4th face from 04. I'll have these in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 face 496 is the Asian face in MVP 2004, I believe it would be #906 in MVP 2005. (In MVPedit) That's all. I think you should keep all the other faces, even that ugly eyebagged White Guy from MVP 2004. (494) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleMo Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 face 1, or in your terms, 490? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwinginSoriano Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 491 Is it 2x? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Blues Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 This is something a lot of people have been asking about, particularly in the crowd changer thread: new faces for the crowds. I can work on that, if enough people are still interested; I can do two different versions, one (with permission of course) with the updated crowds that are available already and a generic one.

UncleMo Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Swinging Soriano, yes. Royal Blues, sounds good actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
