Freezes up on April 14th.

And Allen Craig's face is black, while the rest of his body is brown like it's supposed to be.

[Gordo]

What mode is crashing for you? What Total Conversion are you using? Did you select "reset rosters" as indicated? I have successfully simmed through entire seasons with multiple teams with injuries and suspensions on.

Plus something is most likely wrong with your models.big file. Allen Craig is cyberface 810, so I would assume that you have something installed incorrectly or you're not using one of the Total Conversion mods.

[Gordo]

Sorry gents, but with all the confusion I forgot to put the illustrious Shane Reynolds (Mr. Im Needed for Mini-Games To Work), but this is an easy correction:

1. Go into you MVP 2005 Directory

2. Open data folder

3. Open database folder

4. Double click attrib.dat file

5. Open with Notepad

6. Scroll down (or search for “Reynolds”) and paste the following code in its correct alphabetical ordered spot:

0f844e070,0 Shane,1 Reynolds,2 37,3 0,4 0,5 0,6 10,7 27,8 115,9 29,10 244,11 1,12 0,13 0,14 0,15 0,16 1,17 743,18 1,19 5,20 11,21 0,22 0,23 43,24 12,25 11,26 10,27 10,28 2,29 0,30 0,31 1,32 1,33 0,34 0,35 0,36 0,37 0,38 2,39 0,40 2,41 1,42 0,43 0,44 0,45 7391,;

7. Save and close notepad

I'll make sure he's in the next batch.

Guys having mismatched face problems can try to find a cyberface in the DL section. Of course, if it seems out of place and the person should not have a unique cyberface, let me know that as well so I can correct it for the next version.

[RedbeardMtn]

Congrats on being ahead of me on the Rockies roster. I had not heard that they lost Chris Nelson to the Yankees, pretty sure that will prove to have been a mistake a few years down the road. Now thats what I call up to date!

I have Allen Craig with a black face as well, using MVP 12 TC. If that is the only issue, I'm completely happy though.

This will be a cyberface issue that you will have to correct, it is not related to the roster file.

[laroquece]

Roster works just fine for me, no crashes at all, I only added some cyberfaces (Chris Nelson, Pedro Ciriaco to name a few), Kyleb assigned the official ID, and added some players who miss the cut in this roster version (Austin Kearns, Sam Fuld), about the Craig´s face i think the guy has the wrong number assigned

[Gordo]

Fuld is definitely a better choice for Tampa's roster than Guyer. I think there was just so many delays in getting this roster out, therefore missed.

Kearns I believe came up because of so many injuries for the Marlins. He was only Single A at best last year and wasn't on any other roster at the beginning of this year..... well known, but a necessary omission.

[laroquece]

That´s Ok Dafly, you did a great job, I can handle it from there to make any adjustment I want, all i can say is THANKS for all the hard work...

[Gordo]

Appreciate that..... couldn't have done it without kyleb.

[surly]

havent had a chance to look at these yet, but would you consider moving O's prospects like Bundy and Gausman onto the AAA rosters so they're available to use?

[Gordo]

Not unless they would actually be in a AAA slot (which they presently are not). There's only 25 slots per team as I'm sure you know, so who would get bumped? However, the plan at this point for the 2013 TC mod is for MLB through Single A if it can all work out. Therefore, I'm not sure how many separate rosters will be published throughout the season once the TC mod is released, though there will most likely minimally be All-Star break and Trade Deadline versions.

If you know how to use MVPedit, you can grab an existing roster file in the DL section that could have those 2 players and import them to the BaseUp! Rosters if you want.

[CyYoung31]

What mode is crashing for you? What Total Conversion are you using? Did you select "reset rosters" as indicated? I have successfully simmed through entire seasons with multiple teams with injuries and suspensions on.

I am using the MVP 12 TCM. It freezes up on April 14th for me in Dynasty mode and Owner mode. And yes, I selected "Reset Rosters" and chose to use the default rosters when starting them up.

I can't tell you why Allen Craig's face is black. However, I have installed 3 different roster updates over the past few days because they all kept freezing up on me (except it was on April 12th for those). Maybe it has something to do with that. I copied and pasted all the .dat files into my database folder like the mod told me to. Perhaps I should use TIT instead?

[CyYoung31]

So, I just installed the 2012 cyberface pack, that has Allen Craig included, and his face is still black.

[Gordo]

Try to install it individually. Extract the "810" files from here, zip them (if not already zipped) and install with TiT:

Didn't work. Craig and Ross' face are already set at 810 and 806 for me. I installed with TIT and it didn't do anything.

It's okay though, I'm just going to change Craig to a generic face. My main problem is Dynasty/Owner mode freezing.

[CyYoung31]

Well, I've actually found more than Craig. There are 3 players on the Braves alone with wrong faces.

[CyYoung31]

I've checked, and the MVP 12 mod with nothing but the two patches installed works flawlessly. No freezing up in Dynasty/Owner Mode. I even loaded up the save file for these rosters, and then it started freezing again. So, it has to do with these rosters. I'm just not sure if it's on my end, your end, or both.

[Gordo]

Well, it stands to reason that it is on your end because like I've said, I've simmed through multiple seasons flawlessly and just produced a picture of Allen Craig's cyberface correctly installed. You can tell me who the Braves players are, but I would pretty much guarantee that they'll be showing up correctly. The other thing is no one else so far is indicating these symptoms. The other possibility is that if you are installing any of Jogar's cyberfaces, he doesn't use cyber ID nos. from the official list.

Also, don't overwrite the existing rosters (from TC 12 or any other you may have in there). Delete the 19 .dat files then unzip the roster in the correct subfolder. Once in game, go into roster management, hit "reset roster", then try your owner mode/franchise.

I've uploaded a tweaked version of the roster. See change log.

Also, please don't flood a thread with consecutive posts.... just edit your existing post and someone will respond to you. Thanks.

[CyYoung31]

Tried what you said, still didn't work. I'm aware that it's, in all probability, on my end. I'm just f'ing something up one or another. Just trying to figure out where.

EDIT: Could it have anything to do with Official Patch #5 for MVP 2005? I installed that before I installed MVP 12 (it said it recommended at least Patch #2 installed). I've read that the patch can cause problems because of a broken file or something. But, it doesn't make sense why standard MVP 12 would work with it but not these rosters.
