Will MVP 2005 work on Windows 8?

Recommended Posts

I am running on Windows 8.1 and have had no problems with the game itself. I didn't like the full screen stretch so I was able to tweak my video card to use the normal screen size for the game. It works nicely! I have had a few problems with some of the MVP 2005 tools such as the MVP 2005 roster editor. I got it sorted out by running the Windows compatibility check and now everything seems to be just fine. By the way, my last computer was about 10 years old and was running XP. The new machine allows me to run with better quality graphics options and the game works smoothly. Hell, I might be able to use 2X uniforms from now on!

Buying a computer with Windows 8 pre-installed on it.

Sometimes TiT works and sometimes it gives me this message, "One or more support files are missing. Please install TiT. TiT will now exit."

I did. It originally worked well, till Windows 8 automatically updated. Then I had to do the following to get it up and running...now it's super fast.

Try adjusting the frame rate limiter or just in general in graphics cards settings

i also cant get this game to work on windows 8

I don't know if updating to 10 will help at all but that is highly recommended for a few reasons. Good thing it's free. Not sure if it will make your situation worse or not.

Updating to 10 would not be the solution as there are numerous people having more trouble with 10 v 8 v 7.  Also, W10 still has plenty of bugs and if one works from home on their PC, many companies do not yet support 10.  Being free doesn't necessarily make it preferable at this stage.  I have tried it and I do like 10 for other reasons already stated around this site, but for older games, it seems less than compatible right now.

Bridgette,

I sent you my modded EXE for the game with the 4gb patch applied, on FB.  Give that a try because I was able to get MVP 15 and any of the Total Classics mods to work on a Windows 8.1 laptop with no problems/crashes.

 Any idea if this works for windows 10?

Hi, I am sure that this has been asked before but will MVP Baseball 2005 work on Windows 8? The title installed fine but will not open on my computer. Any suggestions? Thanks in advanced :)

Two parts to this I believe Jim.  First he needs to see the Windows 8 thread for help getting it to run on Windows 8.  Secondly, Gordo is pointing out that operating systems, whether it be 7 or 8 will not run the game with the windows updates listed.

baesw.... not sure what you're saying but it doesn't help anyone.

As far as the search feature.....that's all well and good, but like any search feature it's gonna be limited when you include a single number like 8, or 7, or 10, etc.   This is why we should merge existing threads under one umbrella for a given operating system and why starting a new thread about the same thing shouldn't be supported and that poster reinforced for fear of looking like a "meanie" or some such nonsense.
