A newbie to the mvp 2004 pc world

Recommended Posts

Hey wassup,

I had the ps2 version, and well you know the story with that, so I finally got a new pc and just bought mvp for the PC. But I am not sure where to biegin, what sliders to use or what files I should download that will make the mvp experience much better than the ps2 version.

I heard that this was the place to get upgrades/fixes, and new mods, and slider info.

So I guess my question for you guys is where should I begin?

Is there by any chance a newbie faq I should look at?

I'd really appreciate the help if you guys had the time to do so.

First Download the lastest patch from EA's site. Next download either EA's Roster Update (Latest is 8/31/04) or one of the users roster updates which have recent roster moves from like 2 weeks ago. Next download Kccitystar Total NL and AL Uniform Updates v2.0.

Next download Overlays which change the EA's Scoreboard to ones like FSN Florida, NL Division Series on Fox, AL Division Series on Fox, NLCS on Fox, ALCS on Fox, YES, NESN, etc... Then download Overlay Swapper which will change the overlay with a click on a button. Then download Camera Mods which change the Camera views when batting pitching and any contact with the ball (i have a pitchers cam set for when i'm pitching). Have a favorite player?If you do look for his "Click to Start Screen".

Also try MVPStudio Final which can change logos, names of stadiums, etc... And check out MVP2K4 EDITOR which can edit Player Stats and their contracts during Dynasty Mode. And can also change the teams Salary Cap in Dynasty Mode to whatever you want.

Don't know if i missed something but those are the most popular mods for the game.

Hey thanks guys, thanks for the feed back. I was doing some research and it seemed like most ppl stuck with ea patch #3 instead the new one #4, is there a reason for this?

Also is there a popular slider, that ppl use?

Thanks for all of this info. I am also new to the MVP PC world. After playing the xbox version for about 2 weeks the bugs just drove me insane, but now I am ready to take the plunge and play this game all fixed up :).

One question though, I had heard a lot of complaints in the past about only a few select joypads working in MVP 2004. I use my ps2 gamepad with a USB adapter. Does anyone know if this will work in MVP?

Also, I have downloaded the patches to just read the readme files to try and figure out what has been patched, but the readme files all seem to be the same in each patch so if you can answer me about my concerns that would be great.

1. Has Player Progression in Dynasty mode been fixed?

2. Has the Lefty Homer glitch been fixed?

3. Does the CPU now try to steal?

4. Has the bug with the AI getting stuck around the walls at Fenway been fixed?

5. Have strange statistical erros been addresses, like player getting charged for errors where there isn't one, and vice versa?

6. How about hitting statistical bugs like getting thrown out trying to stretch a single to a double and getting no credit for a hit?

Thanks All, and good to be here :).
