Njkroc Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I had a question for the guys that put out roster updates for the ps2 and xbox. When I first bought the game a could never hit a homerun but now I can and of course I learn about the lefty problem. At first I thought it was a righty problem but really it is just a flaw that will be fixed in next years version of mvp 2005. Anyways with rosters downloads by Gforce's total minor's 2 (converted by Krawitham) and Kerm's final (converted by Gomer) console players are now seeing lefties hitting homeruns which is great. The problem with righties hitting to many homeruns still remains. I learned about mvpedit and have tried to use it but I'm no scientist by any means at all. But if you can increase the lefty homerun % vs righty and lefty pitching couldn't you just decrease the right handed batters homerun% as well. Bonds homerun% in mvpedit is like 14 vs lefties and 11 vs righties but he still isn't that good so couldn't you just double those numbers or would that make him like superman. I have a unmodded xbox and my pc sucks. I just bought the pc version to try and learn how to use some of the excellent mods including mvpedit that you guys have here so I would try to do it on my own but really don't want to make a mistake.

RobMac Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 i have been working on the same things in mvp edit because i have the same problem as you sort of, i cant update my pc version coz its on import (im in UK, game wasnt released here, stupid EA again) so i have been modifying rosters in mvp edit because in game the hot cold zones as well as velue gets messed up what i have found works quite well is putting lefty power up 20 then pushing the HR % up 10% the key thing to notioce is that if you put HR % str8 up then the other %'s will get messed up... simply putting HR% from 17 to 27 will make the percentage of fly balls go down 10 percent... the best way to do this is reduce all lefty liner % by 10 %... this will in turn bump that 10% onto HR's this makes sense because with the bug all lefty's hit too many liners because of the extra topspin... pushing lefty power up 20 might be a lot... and this depends on your sliders... i found that not only were lefty's hitting too few homers, rightys were simply hitting too many, so after pushing lefty's up a lot i have reduced batting power slider a bit from what it was and now i get 2 HR's per game maximum (maybe 3 in small parks)... usually just 1 or 0 in big parks this is for pc, but hopefully it should be helpful to you i pm'd rglass (creator of mvpedit) about some info regarding which affects HR's more, power or HR% and theres no reply as yet... ill let you know if i get one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GridIronGhost Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 You can tune the game until you turn green, but it will never play as good as the patch 2 version IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
