dejota Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Hey I tried downloading the ultimate roster but I coudln't get it to work. At least when I checked the rosters my team, the 'stros, had guys like Burba and Redding etc. Can someone tell me how to get a roster downloaded from this site and how to install it to my MVP game. I followed the readme exactly but it never changed my rosters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if it matters in this case but do you have the EA patch installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dejota Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 I tried it both ways. First I just tried the update. That didn't work, so I got the patch from Easports.com and put it there again and it didn't work. I also tried dling the EAsports roster but it wouldn't install b/c I already had the other files put there from the roster update. Also first time I misread the readme and put it in mvp2005/data I then put it in the .../database folder but no go. Maybe I have to reinstall the entire game? Also, should i put the easports patch on or not if I do reinstall. Also in which order do I install (patch, roster update) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandlot Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I don't see why it would be a problem if you replaced the files in the database folder. Did it ask you to overwrite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiberger Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 If you reinstall the game, you have to apply the patch first, then update your rosters. It won't work the other way around, as the patch needs the original files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in which order do I install (patch, roster update) Re-install > patch > rosters Maybe if you try exporting the files roster files from MVPedit into your data/database folder? Download MVPedit at http://www.glass4.com/index.asp and open up the .mbe-file included in the Ultimate Rosters.zip download. Click "Export" and choose your destination folder (mvp2005/data/database). Hit "Yes" when you're asked to overwrite the existing files. Load the game and see if it worked... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dejota Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 Thanks xiberger I think that's where the problem is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 well, if your playing on dynasty or owner mode, it wont work, you'll have to start a new dynasty/owner mode to get the patches to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
