Is it possible to play with a clean install of MVP 2005 with only the updated rosters installed?? I've tried installing the MVP07 total conversion mod but it crashes everytime I try and play a game. If I could just get updated rosters to work on a clean install of MVP 2005 that would be fine with me.

Of course it`s possible but you have to download the standard version of rosters not the one that is compatible with new models.big. It will crash your game if you use those rosters.

I've been playing MVP 2005 and well I'm having a "game crashing" problem. I downloaded a roster update from this site, the Ultimate Roster 8.3 but the game crashes to the desktop. Anyway that I can fix this? I'm really new at this site and not sure what and how certain programs work and stuff. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Which edition did you download - the standard version or the plus version? The plus version requires that you download the corresponding models.big. If you are using the standard version, you would need to use the models.big that came with the original game.

How can I know which one I downloaded? How can I tell if I'm using the regular Model.big or the newer ones? What do I do to fix this thing dude...It's really frustrating not being able to play a whole game :(

If you are playing just MVP 05 (have not installed 07 MOD) then you are using the default models.big file. You need to d/l the standard version of the roster set that you choose to play with. Just as redsox stated.

*Each roster set comes with a README.txt file with installation instructions.

So I can download 8.4 and just use it on the game but when I download it I need to download the Regular version? Am I right so far? So does it tell you if it is the standard version or what? Ohh and is it possible to use it on a franchise I already started or do I have to restart it all?

Thats right. The downloads will indicate whether they are the standard version or the plus version.

There is a way to update a dynasty that you have already started but you would have to search for it. I think its the attribute updater but not sure. One thing I am sure about is that its one of TyWiggins' programs.

Ok well I just downloaded the Ultimate Roster 8.4 that's on the front page of the home page on mvpmods.com. Now, I extracted it all to my desktop and there are some instructions in there. I checked them out as well (Readme UR 8.4). Now the thing I don't understand is this. Do I have to download the models.big from like eamods or mvpmods, or can I just install it according to the instructions there. I'm not sure what edition this is that I downloaded. It doesn't say if it is Standard or Plus.

It includes both. Do you not see the two different folders for the STANDARD rosters and the PLUS rosters? If you are just playing 05, you are using the defaut models.big file therefore you will use the STANDARD rosters.

I copied the dat stuff from the Standard edition to my mvp2005/data/database folder. Do I have to start a new franchise now? Is it possible to just play the older save file if I put it back to the saves folder.

Thanks a lot for the help to everyone here! I guess I'm going to start a new season. Ohh another thing I wanted to ask is, well the players in the game look clear, like you cant really tell the color of the jerseys and it all seems a little choppy. Like you can see the players but they look so bright and in white ghost like color. I'm thinking that I have the correct requirements for the game because, well I've played Madden 06 and 07 and never had this problem. This is an 05 game so I don't get why it's doing that.
