Don Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Go home. Just kidding. All of our fabulous modders here have developed MVP 06 here at MVPMods. Give it a try. You'll be amazed at what they have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinpanalley Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I wish someone had directly helped me so I'll do my best to help you. Each installation comes with fantastic instructions which are very easy to follow so I won't bore you with those. 1. A clean install (from scratch) of MVP 2005. Yes, just uninstall the previous one if you have it cause it will eliminate the possibilty of problems later on. You'll probably end up installing more and more things as you get familiar with it. 2. MVP patch #5. No, you don't need the others. 3. MVP 06 Final. Then MVP 06 fix. 4. Ultimate Rosters (or UR) 8.0 Additional things you can try: 5. Datafiles: they change the "physics" of the game. Again, the creators are pretty good about describing what each one does. 6. Overlays: these are graphical add-ons that can give the game the look of any number of television broadcasts. There's also a network selector which you can install separately that runs a little application that lets you choose which one gets used before you start the game. 7. Audio add-ons: there's lots of little add-ons that people have created which do different things. Louder crowds, different effects, etc. Further tips: Again, as you go through downloading things you'll probably notice other things that might sound interesting to you, but I suggest you follow steps 1 - 4 first to get comfortable with installing modifications. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. Not because your computer will blow up or something if you screw up, but because not reading them carefully is usually what results in people asking redundant and simple questions that would have been answered had they taken the time to read thoroughly. Last, but not least: If you must ask questions, be specific. There's nothing worse than... "My rosters thing didn't work. It doesn't show the players I was looking for, and the uniforms are wrong." With the variety of options available to people, there is simply no way to answer a question like that without clearly understanding all the variables of the installations you ran. And it keeps people off your back who will bite your head off if you ask questions like that. Focusing on keywords pertaining to your questions will bring up any number of hits in the fabulous search engine for this site. Lots of results will be vague, not what you're looking for, and written for people who are more knowledgable in these fields, but closer examination will usually reveal the answer you're looking for. Thing is, if you've got an issue with the installations or with the game, and you've followed every instruction THOROUGHLY as I mentioned above, then chances are someone else has had the same problem before and it's already been addressed. Hope this was of some help to you and anyone else looking to enjoy upgrading their copy of MVP 2005. Good luck and Play Ball!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEagles Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Nice post TinPan....everyone new to this mod, should have a read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinpanalley Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 It was to help new people avoid answers like the one you gave me about the Jays arm patches in another thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEagles Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I understand that, and apologize if I was a bit harsh in the previous thread. There is a thread for all and any issues with the 06 Mod...that is where all questions should be directed for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinpanalley Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Oddling, I am a HUGE Stevie fan, and that's one of my favorite Stevie songs (specifically the version on "In The Beginning"), but that's not why I use the name. It is however the same thing that Stevie dramatizes and refers to in the song. Makes it more of a 40s film noir kind of place, which isn't exactly historically accurate. But then again, this isn't a pop-culture music site so I'll shut up before I get told to. Consequently, I think my instructional post could be very helpful to new people and to veterans cause I think it will stop people from asking certain basic questions. Not trying to be arrogant, but anyone else think it deserves it's own sticky or at least some kind of prominent place in the forums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddling Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 ^ Stevie's a God. My Mother met him. It was a good post. It was very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinpanalley Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Stevie was... there's simply more to say than any website could hold to completely explain what Stevie was and is. ...a glimpse of one of the last times that music was really music.

Perceptor Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Thanks - I screwed up and installed patch 3 instead of 5 so I'll have to uninstall everything and do it again tonight when I get home. Thanks for the steps though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicHands8686 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Thanks - I screwed up and installed patch 3 instead of 5 so I'll have to uninstall everything and do it again tonight when I get home. Thanks for the steps though Don't worry about it. The only difference between the two patches is a roster update but you’re over righting them when you install the 06 mod anyway.

Perceptor Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Thanks legolas One more question - if we install patch 5 now, there shouldn't be any ownr mode problems provided that you have a legal copy of the game? I just wanted to make sure since I have typically played owner mode in the past. I'd do a search, but I just wanted to make sure quickly.
