Do I need any of the official EA patches

Just curious because I didn't install any of the official patches. I don't have any issues with the game that I notice. Am I missing something by not installing the official EA patch ?

A couple of the updates are for rosters (which are old by now), but Patch 2 or 3 (not sure which) is for the 'stuttering' issue. Most people had a lag when the ball was thrown across the infield.

Yes, you need them becuase of the stuttering problem. And if you're going to play On-Line you need them.

So if I were you, I would install them.

I don't believe you can patch the game with the 06mod installed, if you feel you need or want the patch you'd have to re-install the whole game. If there si no stuttering issue, though, I wouldn't worry about the patches.

If there's nothing wrong with your game and it's running fine, don't mess with it. Just revel in the awesomeness that is MVP 06. Unless you have a problem with stuttering or something like that, don't even bother with the patches.

Yes - simply copy your roster files and models.big file someplace else on your hard drive. After you reinstall the game and install the patches, overwrite the default rosters and models.big file with the versions you had saved. You can do this with other files as well (uniforms, portraits, stadiums, overlay, etc.).

Yep, always good to make backup copies of the original files if you are going to install a lot of different mods. Never know when things are going to blow-up. :smile:

Also I note for Vista users,... because of the way Vista uses files, if you try applying any of offical patchs, it will crash your game. For some reason the patch (any patch #1 - #5) can't figure out where to update the files.

Is patch 5 missing some stuff from patch 3?
