kumala Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I have worked on a new datafile. If anyone wants to try it, let me know if you like me to post it or just send me your email and i will send it your way. more changes to batter contact, physics, fielder position. hit variety ( liners, choppers, rollers, hrs, bloopers and finally hits, bloopers down the line and into corners. Balls now curve foul after falling in fair. best hit variety seen for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro23 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I would like to try it. Check your PM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pip07 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I would like to try it too. I have been VERY upset with the physics in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teampunjabi Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 ive been using your datfile for awhile with frued's pro silders and I downloaded ur new datfile while using the pro sliders you posted. Id say the pitching meter is on the tough side. I was wondering how you guys pitch. Do you go all the way effectiveness? Halfway? Just wondering. That is my only issue with the file otherwise it plays GREAT. Definitely one of the best files out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edam Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I've only played one game with it so far and the pitch meter seems fine. You may want to adjust your sliders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Love your datafiles, Kumala. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumala Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 thanks guys, i have pitch meter diff at 50 user control at -50. allows me to walk some batters. I just like what i see from this file. I have mlb 07 the show for ps3, but can't stop editing the datafile til it feels perfect. I got to say that this may be it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firelighter Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 You have pitch meter difficulty at 50? That seems easy for me. I've tried a lot of datafiles but yours seems to be the one that works for the type of game I like: lots of foul balls, high pitch counts, and you really have to paint the corners to get a strikeout. I also noticed you zoomed out the baserunners view. Perfect when you want to gauge if you're gonna throw out the guys for the extra base. Love it. I just wanna know what else you changed in the datafile, but all in all, thanks a lot! This really makes the game for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teampunjabi Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 kumala, do you mean -50? I used the sliders you posted - 50 for pitch meter difficulty, which I think is too harsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro23 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Here are the sliders Kumala is using: http://www.mvpmods.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=30043.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firelighter Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Maybe that is what he meant. hehehe. I toned down the pitch meter difficulty to -41, so I have control of at least two pitches. I still miss the green spot with regularity, and when efficient, I have low pitch counts. Contact is up to 32 for both, so you just can't lay it in the strike zone. You gotta paint the corners to be effective. I just wanna ask: major league pitchers have a 100 pitch count limit. The pitch count effectivity seems to stop at 70-75 pitches. Is there a way to remedy this? There are pitchers in the Majors who can still throw quite effectively at the century mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumala Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 changes made were to batter, batterai areas of the datafile. These affect the type of contact made. changed the infield and outfield positions. animations, throw speed and accuracy. The main concern was contact and power. I felt the other datafiles, it was to easy to hit homers and felt like the game was just a slugfest. I find with my datafile homers don't come cheap and you need to get perfect timing and swing location to hit a homer. When i feel I have found the best setup, I am always looking for ways to improve it. But overall I love the hit variety I am getting with this.

yakling Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 To install this, do I just extract the file to C:Program FilesEA SPORTSMVP Baseball 2005datadatafile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumala Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 just in the data folder. the datafile is the default datafile.big so don't put into there. If you want to see the ball physics changes its best to set your defense cam to broadcast. I wish games like 2k or mlb could use this camera angle.

JP_Frost Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Nice work as always Kumala. I really noticed the difference, especially in the offensive department -- though I would like the balls to jump off the bat more, but I can probably change that with my sliders. I also noticed that it seems that opposing batters swung at more pitches out of the strikezone. I really like that, and hopefully it will result in more K's. The only thing I think is a little bit off is the throwing speed for fielders -- it's too slow. I was playing Tampa Bay and Delmon Young picked up a ball in medium right field and basically threw a 3-hopper to 3rd ... and this kid has a cannon. I will see if I can edit my sliders a little bit to solve this issue. there's one thing I'd like to ask. Does the datafile hold information about which pitch is thrown where and when? If so, I'd like to see the cpu pitchers work off their fastballs more, while throwing their out pitch in 2 strike counts. Another thing that bothers me is the location they use with some of their pitches, particularly on sinkers, changeups and splitters. So basically they should pitch more down in the zone, especially with their offspeed stuff. Can these things be changed with the datafile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dynasty Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Hey kumala, How did you come about with your ball physics values? Reason being, I'm currently using MD's datafile, and I enjoy his ball physics. I was wondering if you used those as a base as he did extensive research into these. Thanks.

kumala Posted June 15, 2007 Author Share Posted June 15, 2007 no, nothing from md's, I worked with Rodkey to create my datafiles. Rodkey is well known for his datafiles in the 2003 and 2004 datafiles. We communicated and worked on several files last year. A lot of the physics were done by me with extensive testing. jp, there is a section of the datafile that adjust throwing power and speed. as for the pitch history I will check on it. good to hear from you.
