Game crash

Recommended Posts

I am sort of a beginner at this so please bare with me if this is a stpid question.

I have installed Ultimate Rosters v8.5. They are great and I don't have any problem unless I am trying to play a game with the Rangers involved. It just crashes to the desktop when it should be loading up the game. They're the only team I have a problem with, so I really don't have any ideas.

I've made sure all the lineups and such are filled and I have no problem editing any of their players in rosters.

Thank you very much for any help as this is very frustrating.

Its most likely a stadium issue. Copy the original stadium files (for the home team) from the CD and paste them in your stadium folder and see if it fixes the problem. If I am not mistaken there was a patch created to fix a set number of stadium issues. Search for that thread and see if the stadium you are currently trying to play in is listed.

Have you installed any mods besides UR 8.5 for the game? Or did you modify any file?

You can try to narrow down the problem by playing a game at other stadiums (with the same team) or playing two other teams at the aforementioned stadium. Also, the problem may be from one of the guys on the team.

There may be other people with similar problems that had their issues resolved. You can always search the Forum to check if someone came up with a solution as well.

Good luck.

I'm running the '07 total conversion mod and im crashing at both whenever i try to play against the angels or the rangers (in dynasty mode if that matters).

does anyone have a link to that crash fix? also, is patch #2 supposed to fix this issue?

Try downloading the updated stadiums. In the following thread, look for the post by Pirate that contains the links to the stadiums.

*If that doesn't work, then you have other issues (roster/cyberface).

My game crashes whenever I play Tampa Bay or Texas. My game is the original install (MVP Baseball 2005). The only mod added is all updated stadiums. I also copied the original stadiums into the game and it still crashes.

I can play a game using any two teams, except Tampa Bay or Texas at any stadium including Ranger Ballpark at Arlington and Tropicana Field. So it doesn't appear to be the stadiums.

The game crashes whenever I use Tampa Bay or Texas. My problem seems to be a roster issue. I use Totte's UR rosters. UR 8.4 works fine, no crashes. Game crashers using UR 8.5 and UR 8.6, when using Tampa Bay or Texas.

I've used all minor league teams with Tampa Bay and Texas, playing games at Ranger Ballpark at Arlington and Tropicana Field and other stadiums. All minor teams load and play find. It's just the Tampa Bay and Texas major league rosters that crash.

I've tried a clean install from the original cd and still have the same problem.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to anyone who can solve this problem.

Albie, all I can say is I just tested the game using version 8.5 rosters with Tampa Bay verses the Rangers (flip flopping the 2 teams & stadiums) & the game booted up just fine.

At what point does your game crash? Does it seem to make a difference which pitcher you use? etc... Can you give more details?

For me, this usually occurs when there is a cyberface problem. To prove (or disprove) this, open up the roster with MVPEdit. Go to the options menu and click "Show player faces".

Go to the Rangers rosters, click on the Appearance tab and then scroll through all of the players, one by one. If the player has a non-default face number (i.e. not in the 901 - 915 range), verify that the face appears. If you see the text "no picture found" in the window, then you've found the player causing the crash.

If all of the players show up OK, then verify that the manager's face number is OK and that his face is in the models.big file.

I d/l and installed "Big Shmooz-Kcciytstar unis Models.big".

This seems to have corrected the problems. I haven't tried all teams yet or stadiums, but Tampa Bay and Texas no longer crash. Ranger Ballpark at Arlington and Tropicana Field are ok.

Since my problem seemed to be roster related (player portrait or cyber face as some had suggested), it corrected itself with d/l and all the things that Big Shmooz included in his models.big.

Thanks for everyone help and especially to Big Shmooz.

Albie, first of all, you're welcome. I would like to add though that if downloading my models.big fixed your crash problem then the issue could not have been player portraits since the models.big does not contain those files. The file that contains player portraits is the "portrait.big" file. I just thought you may want to know this.

Big Shmooz,

Thanks for the reply. I have no idea what my problem was, other than the results of crashing when using Tampa Bay or Texas, and the screwie red/yellow/green first baseman's mitt.

Whatever was in your d/l fixed my problem. I haven't play with all teams or stadiums yet, but so far no crashing and the first baseman's mitt is the right color.

Thanks again.
