Balanced Schedule Generator Released!

Recommended Posts

SwingingSoriano, do you really REALLY want it? I MIGHT try to do it...

Yeah, I can then edit the correct schedule to my liking.

SwingingSoriano (or anybody else, for that matter), do you know of any places where I can see a version of the non-interleague schedules in the MLB

Also, it could not be a purely balanced schedule. Try checking a 1996 schedule.

Where can I get a 1996 schedule?

And do you want a very balanced schedule, or one that mimics the ones that were from years prior to 1997?

Also, I'm thinking of completely starting over my schedule generator because I want to make it more randomized, so it might take a while...

If you want the schedule to be balanced, each team has to be played around 5 times (but the games aren't all together...there's 3-game series and 2-game series...)

There's 162 games in a season, and there's 29 teams to play against.

That makes it, 17 teams 6 times each, and 12 teams 5 times each...I don't see how I can make it so you play ALL the teams less than 5 times each unless you want me to shorten the season or something...

K here is the deal!

I love this mod, i always wish i could play every team!

However, this mod only works in MVP 07 under certain conditions.

If you intsall MVP 07, when you start a dynasty, by default the dynasty will start in 2005!

I tested the mod, and the schedule generator works fine under default settings (i.e. dynasty that starts in 2005)

However, because i wanted my stats to work with MVPsavreader, i ran the 07 maker tool, which basically makes it so your dynasty starts in 2007.

Basically the problem is that when you run the "07 maker tool", and make it so that your dynasty starts in 2007, the schedule generator does not work.

So is there a way that you can make the schedule maker work with MVP 2007 after the "07 maker tool" has been ran!

Any help would be much appreciated!

thank!

I can run the schedule maker just fine, thats not the problem

The problem is this.

When the schedule maker makes the new schedule.big file, the more balanced scedule will show up when i start a new dynasty in MVP 2007, when running the game from the default 2005 dynasty settings (i.e. without running the 07 maker tool that comes with MVP 2007).

However after running the "07 maker tool", the tool changes the game so that it no longer starts your dynasty in a default 2005 dynasty, but rather it starts it in a 2007 dynasty settings. However, when doing so, the new balanced schedule wont show up.

I find this weird because i have no multiple instalation of the game, because when i installed MVP 2007, i deleted my MVP 2005 installation.

So there should only be one schedule.big file available to the game.

My theory is that your tool does not recognize the game after the 07 maker tool is used.

IF you need more info let me know!

My question to you is this: do you run the 07 tool after or before running my schedule tool?

Actually i just tried both

I ran your schedule tool before and added the schedule.big file in the proper folder, and than used the o7 maker tool to make my new dynasty but did not work!

Than i tried running the 07 maker told, but before being prompted to click okay which starts the game, i switched the schedule.big file it creates with the one your schedule tool creates, and than clicked okay to run the 07 maker tool, and still did not work.

Im now going to try running the o7 maker tool start the game, alt tab, run your tool, add it, and than go to start a dyasty and see if that works

The problem seems that the 07 maker tool creates a schedule.big file, instead of using the one located in the data - database folder, which where yours would be located

Im trying to replace the file with the one your schedule maker tool creates

I'm guessing the problem is that the 07 maker tool would have to be reprogrammed to create schedule.big file like yours!

Im going to try to start up the game with the 07 maker tool, start a dynasty and save it, and that add your schedule.big file.

If that doesnt work, than i guess whoever made o7 maker tool will have to include the option of creating a schedule.big file like yours

Yeah i think i figure it out, its not your tools fault, its the 07 maker tool.

It creates a schedule.big file, and the program won't allow me to replace it with yours.

So any ideas?

Maybe you could colobarate with the guy who made the 07 maker tool, so i can have your balanced schedule on MVP 2007?

I certainly hope so, your idea is awesome!

Ooh one more thing!

The 07 maker tool only works when your run the program, which starts the game, and than you can create a dynasty with 2007 settings.

You save the dynasty, and exit the game, and than the tool stops working.

Which means i have to run the program everytime i run a new dynasty!

The 07 maker tool does not change the settings permanently, rather you have to run it every time you want to start a new dynasty.

So basically running your tool after i use the 07 maker tool is pointless

Look, frankynaky, all you have to do is this:

Run the 07 maker tool (FULLY, ALL THE WAY THROUGH!). SAVE YOUR DYNASTY, and then QUIT THE PROGRAM.

Now, run my schedule tool, and THEN load back your dynasty. It should work fine...

I swear to god i did that as well

It did not work

It only works if i start a dynasty without runnig the 07 maker tool

And even if i run the 07 maker tool, save my dynasty, and quit the 07 maker program, run your program, it still does not work.

Sorry if im upsetting you

I usually try to figure things out on my own without bothering the modders

But i like your mod and i cant get it to work in conjunction with o7 maker tool

No, you're not upsetting me. I just wasn't sure if you'd tried that solution yet.

I think there's a thread somewhere on eamods.com about 2007 schedule. Maybe the solution on that thread would help you in solving this problem. Sorry I can't think of the thread, but if I do, I'll find it for you. I'm pretty sure Hory knows about it though. You could PM him.

Im pretty sure the problem is that your tool is not compatible with 07 maker tool.

07 maker tool makes its own scedule.big file that it uses to create 07 setting when you start a dynasty.

For that reason it does not utilize the schedule.big file that is found in data/database folder.

I think the solution is, im pretty sure about this, is that 07 maker tool needs to be modified in a way that both creates 07 settings, and creates a schedule like yours!

Im pretty sure about this!

I think I've found a solution for those people that are trying to use my balanced schedule with MVP 07.

Download Schedule Updater from here:

http://mvpmods.com/Downloads/details/id=3200.html

Now, take the schedule.big that is generated from my program and paste it in datadatabase.

Then, make a dynasty, and while you're in the dynasty, use the Schedule Updater, and then save your dynasty. That should work.
