lacticsolardust Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 In today's sports climate I think it would be interesting if someone could develop a mod that would allow "suspect" players be to suspended for using performance enhancing drugs. Is this possible? Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/26478-performance-enahncing-drugs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRog Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 i personally think that would be stupid. seriously if thats the case anyone who has a good season is "suspected" as will call it. how would u suspect in the game. its not like their appearence changes in dynasty ever.

kgbaseball Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I'm thinking it's possible. All you'd have to do is go into the .LOC files and change some of the text that involves players being suspended. All you do is change "suspended for his part in an altercation" to "suspended for testing positive for performance enhancing drugs." I bet it's possible to change the amount of games the player is suspended for, but I'm not sure how to do that.

I guess you could do it that way, and I'm sure that a datafile change is all that would be needed to change the length of the suspension (I don't know how to do it, though). Would you want to though? I mean, I think the computer suspends people at random. Wouldn't it look weird to see "David Eckstein has been suspended for testing positive for performance enhancing drugs?" Or Jose Reyes?

Immac Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Hey, anything's possible. Remember Rafael Palmeiro? He wants to come back. Texas reunion? Sosa, Raffy - one two punch!

kgbaseball Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 No chance of that anymore, I guess. Raffy was told the Rangers have no place for him.

lacticsolardust Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hey, anything's possible. Remember Rafael Palmeiro? Pitchers were being suspended last year for testing positive for PED's that a lot of people would not expect such a thing from them - partly, because no one ever heard of the tested players. I think in attempting to make the game as realistic as possible a suspension for PED's would be a good idea to introduce in the game. Half-way through the season someone could loose Will Ohman from the Cubs for 50 games for using PED's. That would be hillarious! If the mod becomes a reality you know certain #25 from a certain West Coast National League team is going down .

DJEagles Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Why did you make a thread about this, and then go and post the exact same thing in another thread?

The thing is, if I'm not mistaken, you cannot make a mod that suspends CERTAIN people, it's a random thing. The only things that can be changed are the wordings and length of the suspension. So you cannot guarantee that Bonds would be suspended.

kgbaseball Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 You might be able to do that with tywiggins' MVPEditor program. I know you can put certain people on the DL, but I'm not sure about suspensions.

MarkB Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 If you're really desperate for it; And I didn't modify the altercation text, so you can use this and still have players suspended for their part in an altercation. The limitations mentioned above still apply, however. This is my personal .loc file, so just make any changes you feel necessary using LocLook.

Gordo Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Well of course that guy should be suspended for violating the drug policy. I mean just look at him!

I know him, he went to Stanford. He's a pretty cool guy, we talk to him often, and he would never do steroids.
