joshua08401 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 I have been playing this game for a while now with patch #5 in dynasty mode and have not had a problem. Recently I discovered this site and downloaded some mods. Ultimate Rosters Standard, Portraits, and Audio (all newest versions). Since then I have had some problems. I played the Phillies in dynasty and owner modesand when I got to the first games against the Braves it crashes in the middle of the game. It seems to only do it against the Braves as i simmed to the next team and all was well again. Now, in owner mode after it crashed against the Braves again, I tried to auto sim to the end of the season just for the hell of it. It simmed about ten or fifteen games and then completely crashed. It does it everytime. I have tried re-installing the game with patch #4 and it didn't help. I also replaced the manager.dat file with the original on the disk and that didn't help either. I am stymied and want to play with the roster updates since the originals and patched ones are way out of date, plus the minor leaguers are all fake. Any suggestions?

catzrthecoolest Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 i think you need patches 3 and 5... not just 5.... or maybe i don't know what I'm talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tywiggins Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Install only patch 3 if you want to play owner mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshua08401 Posted September 29, 2006 Author Share Posted September 29, 2006 I only installed patch #3 along with the rosters and portraits, and it still crashes. I don't see how rosters or pictures could make this crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman00178 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 it didnt work for me either = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshua08401 Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 Also, I installed a new printer, a Canon i9900. It installed drivers and the next game is when it crashed when I was playing the Braves. i don't know if that has anything to do with it or not. It's just damn annowing because i love this game and the roster mods are awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaceman Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I completely understand. From my experience today it crashes upon first save. For instance, I create a new Owner Mode and the first thing I do (before playing, simming, modifying rosters, etc.) is save... Presto -- immediate crash! I've tried fresh installs with an innummerable combination of patches. No matter what, Owner mode seems dead to me. Sucks, I didn't have this problem on my older computer. So much for upgrades!

joshua08401 Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 I have narrowed down the problem somewhat. I started with a fresh install and added patches then mods. Owner mode works with the patches. However, when installing the Ultimate Rosters mod, the game will freeze. It freezes after about a month into the season. It does it when you are simming via the schedule or quick simming day by day. It freezes the game first and the music a few seconds after. After that I have to end the program through task manager. Also, the problem I was having when playing the Braves seems to have been corrected. I played three against them and it was fine. Although they were at Atlanta, don't know if that makes the difference. Is there anyway I can use a program that shows exactly where the game is crashing (the lines of code or something) that someone could look at and decipher what the problem may be?

lyon810 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 you need to have a fresh install of mvp 05, then patches 3 and 5, then just follow the directions, its very straight forward. there are too many topics like this with people saying they cant run certain add ons or updates. most of them have detailed guidelines to follow including this roster update. read it carefully before you come and complain about it.

joshua08401 Posted October 7, 2006 Author Share Posted October 7, 2006 I did follow the step by step instructions. However, I may have just fixed the problem. I downloaded the UR8 Plus edition, installed it and then installed the UR8FIXv2 patch from Hory. I just simmed an entire season in Owner mode and it did not freeze. I am assuming that the problem has been fixed. I suggest that anyone experiancing those problems should download and install those two things and install them.
