krawhitham Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I'm having issues, I've installed manually, with the installer, standing upside down, I've tried everything but the overlay is always screwed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 I think the problem is that you were standing upside down. To get it to install properly, you have to stand on one foot and lean a little to the left...... Seriously, however, I'll look into it, because I'm not sure what would cause the problem. The overlay is essentially the same one used for TC56 and TC51. The only thing I changed is the baseball graphic in the overlay so that it simply says "Total Classics". Have you installed TC51 or TC56 previously and if so, did you have any problems with the overlay in those mods? Also, I know that this is a silly question since you are far from being a rookie when it comes to mods, but did you install it over a clean install of MVP?

Jim825 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 I just tried reinstalling TC Walk Through History manually over a copy of a "clean" MVP install with Patch #2 installed. Everything seems to work fine for me. Here are some screenshots, using the same teams that you had in your screenshot: I just noticed that your screen resolution is 1280 x 1024 while mine is 1024 x 768 (at least that's the size of your screenshot). I don't know if that could have anything to do with the problem you are seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I hate to sound stupid even though I know I am about to... What is the difference between this and Total Classics Phase 9? Also are there any mods that give all the players the old timey gloves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexTony Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I hate to sound stupid even though I know I am about to... What is the difference between this and Total Classics Phase 9? Also are there any mods that give all the players the old timey gloves? Tota Classics 9 (TC9) is a mod that has 120 teams from 1906 thru 2006. It can only be played in an exhibition mode. Any team can play against any other team. There is the TY Wiggind playoff creator in case someone wishes to have a best of seven series as well. TC Walk Through History is a mod that has 16 teams. All from 1906 thru 1951. It can be played as any team vs. any team in an exhibition game like TC9. But, it can also be played in Dynasty mode where you can have a season with any team or even jump around if you use another utility (I believe Ty or Kraw created the utility). It is just like playing the game with a team that you manage thru the whole year. See where you finish in the standings, check out the player stats, etc. Hope this helps a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 Also are there any mods that give all the players the old timey gloves? Total Classics 1951, 1956 and Walk Through History assign the old time gloves to all players. Most of the pre-1960's teams in Total Classics 9 also use the old time gloves.

Things are crystal now. I just got done setting up my double installation last night MVP08 and TC9 and just wanted to make sure it was worth re-installing. If there are only 16 teams what are the other teams? or is it just a 16 team dynasty and the remaining teams just got taken out? Total Classics 1951, 1956 and Walk Through History assign the old time gloves to all players. Most of the pre-1960's teams in Total Classics 9 also use the old time gloves. great thank you.

If there are only 16 teams what are the other teams? or is it just a 16 team dynasty and the remaining teams just got taken out? The 16 teams in TC51 and TC Walk Through History are the original 16 teams that were in existence before the Braves moved from Boston to Milwaukee. The 16 teams in TC56 are those that were in existence in 1956. The 14 "other" teams are just the teams from 2005 (when MVP05 came out). You will be able to see and use them in exhibition mode, however, if you play a dynasty, these teams will not appear because they were removed from the season schedule. Something similar was done for TC78, when only the 26 teams in existence in 1978 appear in dynasty mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Great, so when I play the dynasty i'll have just the classic teams to play? Thats awesome. Where is a paypal that I can make a donation towards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Yes, that's correct. If you want to make a donation, please donate to MVPMods. Send Trues a PM asking him how to do this. I'm not sure how to do it now that the site format has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 when I go to use the install program it says "file is being used by another process" and it isnt being used by another. How do you manually install this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Did you read the Installation Instructions document included with the mod?

Jim825 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Hey Jim, do you remember Bill Cosby's "Picture Pages" back in the day? I had never heard of them before. I just googled them and found that they appeared nationally in 1978 on Captain Kangaroo. By that time, I was a senior in high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the first thing I tried to reference when I had the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Here are the instructions. If you got a file corrupt error, however, I'd question whether the whole download itself is suspect. If you still have problems, you may want to try downloading the mod again.TC_Walk_Through_History_Installation_Instructions.doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Couldnt read the the doc or see the photos because wordpad just showed all these weird symbols. I got it done now though so thanks jim for all your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
