raindelay7's first baseman mitt mod help?

[Mets81]

I cannot seem to select a firstbasemans mit in create/edit player.

Not sure whats going on. But id like to have my first basemen wear 1Bman mits.

here is the readme from the download:

Firstbaseman's Mitt

This is based on Jitter's superb "Pujols Rawling" - thank you very much Jitter!

And big thanks to bartw and Marcus for creating the other gloves in the fglv.fsh.

Thanks also to rossmac7 for keeping the firstbaseman glove issue alive (rossmac7 please do a version of your excellent fb mitt in extra glove slot)

I have reshaped the mitt by creating invisible space with an alpha, and I have put the mitt in it's own slot (6) so you will not have to worry about non-firstbasemen using the glove. There are some minor problems with mitt that have to do with making parts invisible - some may feel it looks way too small from certain angles, but overall i think having something closer to a real fb mitt in game is a lot better than having a fingered glove.

Also, the other gloves in the fglv.fsh represent imo the best of created gloves and include:

slot 0: bartw's brown/black Wilson

slot 1: bartw's tan Easton

slot 2: Marcus' black Rawlings

slot 3: Jitter's gray/black Wilson A3000

slot 4: bartw's black Mizuno

slot 5: Jitter's brown TPX (this is the glove that will be used with the old time unis. If you want to have the original glove in this slot make sure you install the fglv.fsh included in the "B" folder.)

slot 6: firstbaseman's mitt

Installation Instructions:

1) Extract entire contents of zip to a convenient place on your hard-drive like "My Documents".

2) Copy entire contents of folder "A" to your main MVP 2005 folder. Go to your main MVP 2005 folder and double-click "glove.bat". (If you want to keep original "old timer" glove in slot 5 rather than Jitter's TPX, then copy entire contents of folder "B" to main MVP 2005 folder. Go to your main MVP 2005 folder and double-click "glove.bat".)

To assign player to use any glove listed above you can go to attrib.dat in your mvp 2005/data/databese folder and change 37 "playerattrib_fieldglovecolour" position to slot number of your choice. OR you can assign gloves using MVPedit but you will have to add the two extra positions (5 and 6) by adding slots under "field glove color" in the "config.txt" found in the MVPedit folder in program files.

The reason it's not working is, because the game itself does not allow more than 6 slots. The slot you are using for the first baseman's glove is the 7th slot. The only way to do this is either via the attrib.dat or with MVPEdit as he explains in the readme ...

I quote...

"To assign player to use any glove listed above you can go to attrib.dat in your mvp 2005/data/database folder and change 37 "playerattrib_fieldglovecolour" position to slot number of your choice.

The problem is, you were looking in the wrong place instead of following the instructions in the readme on how to get the player to wear the glove.

But i dont know what all of that means. Im new to this.

I looked in the data/database folder and i didnt see anything called "playerattrib_feildglovecolour....or the number 37 by it.

Im confused, so if someone could help me out, thanks 8)
