ALBIDNIS Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I reinstalled the game and ran patch #3 and I get a "Patch Error" (old file not found, However a file of the same name was found. No update done since file contents do not match) Can any of you please help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead_Monkey_Z Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 1. Are you using a no-cd patch? 2. Are you playing a downloaded version? If you answered yes to either of the questions above, you're S*H*I*T OUTTA LUCK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALBIDNIS Posted July 18, 2004 Author Share Posted July 18, 2004 no.. I have a registered version. CD's and all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead_Monkey_Z Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 You might have some kinda conflict with mods you may have installed. Just do a fresh install of the game and try to apply the patch again. IMO, the patch really isn't worth it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerryW Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Then obviously you haven't deleted every file from the MVP folder before you reinstalled it...Delete the entire folder and try reinstalling it.. Or just check which file is causing the problem.. When you get the error message, open up the patcher window again and see which file it stopped on. Replace that file with the one from the CD.

stecropper Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 I believe that is the message you receive when you have Rosters imported to the game versus the games original Rosters when you are trying to apply the Patch ........ You will need to revert back to the games orignial Rosters to install the Patch. That was the identical thing that occured to me when I attempted to install Patch #2 over some of my imported MVPEdit Rosters. I then just copied the 8 or so files from the CD that set the original MVP 2004 Roster back and then everything worked find. Hope this helps, Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinsFan Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 A default file of MVP is eighter not present at its default size, and the patch could not patch it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALBIDNIS Posted July 18, 2004 Author Share Posted July 18, 2004 I just uninstalled deleted the folder and reinstalled on a different hardrive in my computer and I still get an error... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead_Monkey_Z Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 You might have a corrupt patch 3. Try downloading it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Just move the error box window...drag it out of the way, and see what file it is getting hung up on, then replace that file with the original one from the CD....you might have to do it 3 or 4 times but just keep running the patch each time you replace a file and see where it gets stuck next...I only had to replace attrib.dat and rookie.big to get the patch to install here....you might have to do more if you're using custom rosters.

Big M1ke Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 I had the same problem but since patch #3 is useless according to everybody, I'll just forget about installing it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzone Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 patch3 really is pointless.it's literally just a roster update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Unit Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 I'm not convinced it's just a roster update. I can hit ALOT better with lefties now and hit ALOT more HR's with lefties than I could after patch 2 and I know it's not my imagination. I don't think it's pointless one bit to install it.
