The primary rosters are Ultimate Rosters (UR), kgbaseball's rosters (kg), and Epic Rosters (Epic).

The people most responsible for the different rosters are Totte (for UR), kgbaseball (for kg), and SwinginSoriano (for Epic).

Ultimate Rosters is best known for extremely accurate rosters, including ALL of the minor leagues. A special formula was developed to use stats from the past few seasons to make the ratings for each player consistent to one another.

KG's Rosters are best known for updated ratings based on recent performance of the players (using a more subjective method), and the minor leagues are also accurate. And, major prospects for each organization are included.

Epic Rosters focuses mainly on the major leagues.

The MVP2007 mod that was released recently allows you to choose between UR and KG when you install.

Also, KG's rosters replace the Hero and Legend teams with a Future's Team (or Star's of the Future, something like that).

I got a question also, do Totte's Rosters updated player ratings too, or is it jusr focused on accurate rosters? I havent really noticed.

It's got completely reworked ratings based on the 2006 season.

Thanks to krawhitham, a unique formula was implemented that takes into consideration both a players three-year splits and 2006 season to compile the most accurate values.

Totte, kgbaseball, SwinginSoriano - am I correct (AT ALL) with my brief descriptons of your roster sets?

Absolutely on my part (UR). I'd even like to use some of your words in a brief description of the UR-product if that's ok? :)

How am I, as an XBOX user, supposed to get this to work? All of the Ultimate Rosters I've found say "for PC".

I have an AR for the XBOX and have downloaded both KG's and UR's files. I've put them into the AR saves folder and it shows up on my AR memory card. However, when I put the card into the XBOX controller and try to load the rosters, they're not showing up. Does anyone have any ideas as to why the files won't show up in the game, but show up on my AR program in the memory card window?

I assume there will be updated rosters released when the season starts so the opening day starting lineups will be accurate and all. I might want to wait until then to get any new rosters.

The question I have is will any roster update work with any models.big and uniforms.big? I was thinking the uniforms will be fine, but there might be some complications with some of the model files. Am I right?

OK, I downloaded and have begun using the Ultimate Rosters and both the Hero and Legend teams are missing, replaced with faceless players. Any way to get them back?

The Heroes and Legends were removed in order to make room for The Forum Fanatics and Mod Squad team. If you don't mind me asking, why would you want them back? Go download the Total Classics mod from www.total-classics.com if you want accurate heroes and legends...

Yes, you're right. Check out the readme for every rosters and it'll tell you which models.big to use.

Both Ultimate and KG have versions in the Xbox download area. Niether are especially up-to-date, but KG's is the newest. I'd look for updated versions from both authors closer to opening day 2007.

I don't understand why you would remove them in the first place. I mean, I worked hard to unlock all of the hidden players (didn't want to cheat) and then they're replaced with players that I don't know or care about.

I think I can speak for SwinginSoriano and Totte when I say that the creation of Total Classics made the Heroes and Legends teams obsolete and pointless. Why play with only 50 historic players when you can play with thousands of them from Total Classics? Plus, the teams that replaced the Heroes and Legends offer a new and different aspect to the game.

And from what I've seen, almost no one has minded that the Heroes and Legends were replaced.

The replacement players are members from this website that helped to create that mod, or were involved in some other capacity, or were just long-standing members of the site in general. It's true - those two teams inspired interest to active members of this site, but for people just looking to download a roster update, they don't mean much of anything. However, they replaced the heroes and ledgends teams with those b/c even those looking for updated rosters seem mostly interested in the CURRENT mlb teams, and don't really care about the unlockable players (I know I was one of these people, before I got invovled with this site).

However, I understand how a few people would WANT the heroes and ledgends.

I, personally, am not totally sure how to bring just THEM back, while retaining the rest of the roster update.

Anyone that does - please help this guy out.

I guess the reason I liked the heroes/legends in there is because I like to create a fantasy team with the current players and historic players mixed. It creates a different aspect of the game. I stated this in a previous post, but it's nice having Babe Ruth on my team. He is batting 3rd right in front of David Ortiz. Talk about power hitters.

Question......Can I use the total classic with the current roster and do a fantasy draft that way or is the total classic a completely different set of rosters??
