samrock67 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I have done this before, but it has been a while since i modded my 05 into 07, and i have gotten a new computer since. I am currently installing MVP 05 and would like to get things up to date and into shape in time for the season(which technically has already started). I want to know what the difference between following the instructions here: http://mvpmods.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=27808.html and using the total installer thingy is. I am having trouble understanding what the total installer thingy does, and really I just want to know the simplest and easiest way to get my mvp 05 updated to 07 with 08 rosters in the near future. any help is greatly appreciated. thank you.

xiberger Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 You're currently downloading MVP 05?! That's a no-no here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samrock67 Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 EDIT: installing MVP 05, not downloading... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krawhitham Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 People do make that mistake I was PM'ing someone for a couple days trying to figure out why he thought he was downloading a mod when using TiT. It turned out he meant installing not downloading. But it had me scratching my head for nearly 2 days about what the hell was going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaptorQuiz Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 You should download the "07 reboot edition" from EAmods.com. That one will install itself, and it will make all the updates (that used to be separate) you should need. Bottom line: If you get the "07 Reboot Edition," you no longer need my instructions.

Ugh. That one kills me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsox Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 To add on to what he said, I usually create a blank folder and copy the latest version of TiT (in this case RC14). Download the reboot version as RaptorQuiz suggested and install it to the same folder that contains the TiT. You do not need the stock game to be installed on your computer. You merely need to have the CDs. Also, you would need to modify your firewall to allow access to the MVP application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samrock67 Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 so what exactly does the Total Installer Thingy do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsox Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 It installs! There is description of every file that it can install in its download page. It is by far the easiest and fastest way to install almost anything related to MVP Baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samrock67 Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 also, it doesnt seem like the reboot version comes with the 08 rosters and/or schedule...any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsox Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 You can download both of them to add on to the reboot version. The 08 schedule can be downloaded from www.eamods.com and just pick which ever roster you prefer - KG's, Totte's, or SS's and install that file. In case you don't know this, each roster has to correspond to a set models.big. I usually just run the plus maker to make sure that my rosters and models.big are in sync. But if you are wanting to use the standard version of the roster, then you would need to copy the default models.big file from the CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samrock67 Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 so, to recap: im downloading 07-REboot.TiT, which i will install using TiT RC14. i will download KG's rosters and the 08 schedule, and by "installing that file" I assume you mean copying and replacing whatever files come with those installations into the default folder. does TiT do this for me or is it done manually? lastly, what is this issue with models.big, and if i download KG's roster, how do i ensure that it will correspond to the models.big set i have. thanks again!
