MaddiesDaddy Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I JUST thought of that..."Hmm, if I were to have 255 real players on my FA list, the game wouldnt be able to fit any fakes in!"...So I fired up a dynasty to count the amount of FA's on the list...and found... 350. That's right, they overpopulated the damn list with nearly 200 players and brought the total combined with my real FAs to almost 100 players OVER the MVPEdit limit! I'm so frustrated!!!!!!!! :evil: I just checked and you are correct. But is there really anything that can be done about this? I mean any modded rosters will be short of the 350 limit...am I right? As such, no matter what, the fake players will be created in the FA pool when you start a dynasty. I assume the number of FA's when a dynasty is started cannot be modded? I am far from a computer whiz, but wouldn't that would require some serious messing around with the source code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krawhitham Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 but how are you going to find 350 FAs well you could add Barry Larkin back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.M.Z. Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 You could also import a bunch of fake EA players from the default or patch 1 roster just as a test. therefore those players could be eventually edited into low talented chump free agents.

jbmagicfan Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I love how no one bothers to read through the thread, they just post... For the UMPTEENTH time...Barry Bonds face was accidently set to 002 in the beta release...If you have terminator korea's cyberface, you have to go into mvpedit and change his face to 029...If you dont have any cyberface, change it to 914. Voila. No crash. and if you have SqueegeeDeadly's bonds cyberface. it uses #607 for bonds so change bonds face on mvpedit from #29 to #607 and say yes to 04face.

Goldensuitcase Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Mets news: - Purchased contracts of Chris Woodward and Mike Matthews - Optioned Aaron Heilman and Victor Diaz to AAA Norfolk - Reassigned Gerald Williams and Joe Hietpas to minor league camp - Released Kerry Robinson It has also been rumored that Ron Calloway will be released as well so I am thinking that Marlon Anderson has made the club which shocks me because he has sucked but oh well. He is versatile which is what they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbythepier Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Don't know why I remember this from LA Times but it said 12th pitcher on Dodgers is the only spot on roster up for grabs : Ryan Rupe vs. Buddy Carlyle But whoever wins is still slotted in AAA-Las Vegas because Alvarez will come off DL in 2 weeks and bump him down. What's my point? Can't find Buddy Carlyle, a NRI, anywhere in Dodger system or FA list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcousticNut Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 First off... great job undertaking such a huge job.... A couple of things that I noticed on the Pirates roster. I haven't jumped in depth yet, but these I saw on the surface playing a couple minor league games: 1) Nate McLouth Appearance: In the MVP Game w/ Roster: IRL: Here's his vitals from his stat page: 71 inches 185 pounds Probably should stocky up his bone profile and adjust the skin tone. 2) Jose Bautista is listed as a RF / Util. He's more a 3B / RF. He played RF in the majors as a way for teams to try to keep him on their roster as a rule 5 pick. He's being groomed and will play 3rd base. 3) Rich Thompson will start the year in Indianapolis and Freddie Sanchez will be playing in Pittsburgh Thanks again for the great work!!!!

bbythepier Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 More observations from NL West: Padres are taking the oldest first on their rotation: 1. Williams 2. Lawrence 3. Peavy 4. Eaton 5. Redding D. May is long relief. I would change Nady to LF/OF. Why? He's getting the nod on Opening Day against lefty Joe Kennedy, as Klesko rides the pine. I would put Nady in the lineups against lefties, seeing as Klesko couldn't hit them if they were throwing beach balls. Funniest Klesko story. A few buddies and I are in Vegas, might have been at the CrazyHorse but can't remember, and we walk up to the bar to order drinks. We notice that up at the bar Bob Sura (plays on Houston Rockets but back then played on the G.S. Warriors) is trying to coax a friend with his head down on the bar it's time to go. But the guy doesn't want to leave. So Sura grabs him by the back of his jacket and attempts to drag him out. The guy falls sideways off the stool, taking out the 2 or 3 stools next to him and right in front of us. Who is it? You guessed it, Klesko. Too many shots of Petron for Ryan. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HypnoxXx Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 A Bunch of Numbers Concerning Fakes in the FA List... The Magic Number is 297--That's how many FA's show up in the list once MVP adds the fake...The good news is, the more players you add to the FA list doesn't matter, it stays at 297, and thus the amount of fakes produced is lower. MVPEdit has a max Free Agent space of 255. On its own, this is 42 short of the list inside of the game. In reality it is 53 players short, because there are 11 "legends/heroes" stuck in the FA list, and I believe deleting them could crash the game. So, unless MVPEdit allows me to export/save a roster with more than 255 in the FA list (I believe it will just give me an error if I do), the most real players I can make for the FA list is 244, meaning there will still be 53 fake players created automatically by the game. Again, RGlass won't respond to me, so if anyone has any clue if this is fixable and/or can get a response from RGlass, please let me know, and I can start working on importing/creating players to fill up the list.

krawhitham Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 you can trick the system you can add all your FAs 255 then add the other 42 players manually but do not make reference to the in the roster.dat file the game itself will take any players not in the roster.dat file but listed in the other supporting files and put them in the FA pool to make things easier make the 42 players all pitchers or all hitters if you want to gather the 42 players and have 255 in the FA pool I will add the 42 players and see if the game crashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HypnoxXx Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Now I just have to think up 142 players who are still playing...not on a team...and not in Japan...oy...I wish a modder could find out how to just reduce the FA list # within the game heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbythepier Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 More Padres notes: Assigned to AAA-Portland Tim Stauffer-SP Specs & pic: http://sports2.chron.com/chron/baseball/player.cgi?4161 Scouting: "...best pitch is changeup...also throws 89-92 mph fastball, a cutter and a developing curveball...can throw them for strikes at any point in the count...close to his ceiling...curve can flatten out at times..."

bbythepier Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 They're guys who's going to bump someone off an already full squad. Can't have more than 25 on MLB and AAA. Or maybe a guy like Carlyle gets demoted, doesn't accept and takes his chances in the market. Never know. :wink: Stauffer and Carlyle aren't made yet.

HypnoxXx Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I need a vacation! Unless someone comes up with a way to cut down the FA list within the game, my best bet is probably going to be to edit down all the fakes to 0 ratings inside the game and release the rosters in .sav format.
