yukon2k Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 i didn't have any problems playing this game last year, but i bought a new computer so i started deleted all of my games and started from scratch. now i can't get this $#$% game to work. i've spent umteen hours editing my roster and now that i'm finished doing that, i exported it into the game and was ready to play. at first, when i clicked on the game icon, it would show the first splash screen (the one with clemens and the catcher) then it would lock up and i had to reboot the computer. after screwing around with it for some time and re-installing my directx, i could get into the game, set up my dynasties, import my roster, and sim 30 or 40 games, but when i wanted to actually play the game, i could get through all of the game setup screens then it would crash to the desktop. i've uninstalled and installed this game and my video, audio, and directx drivers a bunch of times with the same result. i've closed down every running process but taskmgr and explorer in the processes and applications tab, i've turned off my norton anti-virus, i've turned off my spysweeper spyware program ( i never had to do that last year when the game ran smoothly). i decided to try something different. i followed tin pan's instructions - uninstalled the game, re-installed the game, installed patch #5, installed the mvp06 final, installed mvp 06 fix, (did not install the ur rosters) and tried again. now i'm back to square one where i locks up on the opening splash screen again and i can't even get into the game. any help would sure be appreciated because i've been trying to play this game for over a week now. i don't have any problems with any of my other games, including the other ea sports games - madden & nba live.

UncleMo Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 download and install the 8.0 UR rosters. Plus edition. Before you do that, back up your entire game folder. Now start your game and see if that works. You need to get your models.big and rosters in sync man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleMo Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I'll let you research to see the difference. Just listen to your UncleMo. To totally fix your issues, download the latest Big Shmooz models.big and the 8.0 plus edition of Ultimate Rosters. When all is well remember that your Uncle wants money for Christmas and not fruitcake. I got some investments to get you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicHands8686 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 thanks - what's the difference between the standard edition and plus edition? also, i saw some posts that had had problems with the models.big and something about having to transfer the file from v7.3 or something like that. i thought the mvp 06 fix was supposed to take care of all that The Plus edition is designed to work with the latest Models.big from Big Shmooz and the Standard edition works with the default Models.big that came with your game. PS: There are three Models.big by Big Shmooz the only difference between them are the uniform sets that they come with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
