philthepat Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I've spent quite a bit of time updating the rosters and portraits so that they're ready to go for 2025. I have updated from top to bottom, so no more old players who retired years ago in A ball. I've added dozens of prospects and updated many other players, including contracts. Once I am complete, these rosters will be compatible with starting and running a full franchise mode save. I have also added or updated almost 1000 portraits, including most of the top 100 prospects for this year. More and more new official portraits are coming out each day with teams doing their spring photo days this week, so I hope to have a few more updated by the time I am complete. I still need to tweak some things, but I should be finished within the next week or so. I'm not entirely sure how many even play MVB 2005 anymore (or can..), but I hope a few folks will enjoy this. I know I will, if nothing else! 😄 I've attached a couple of preview pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philthepat Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 Quick update - The bulk of it is complete and it's totally playable and without crashes as it currently stands. The final sets of photo day pictures have been released now so I am filling in any gaps I had before I had access to those, which means most teams have updated portraits down to at least AA, for the most part. The two things taking my time up right this second are making sure any newly created players have the correct features (hair, skin colour etc), and on the portraits side it's updating the Cleveland Guardians because they changed their unis and their caps are a different colour now. Just to answer one other question I saw... no I've not updated any faces at all as I don't have the skills to be able to do so to the right standard. Will update again once I am close. Hoping to release something by the end of this coming week, but will let you know if that changes. Meanwhile, go watch some spring training games or something 👍 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyjam Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 This is very cool. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philthepat Posted Tuesday at 05:27 PM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 05:27 PM Should be releasing this in the next day or two. Just need to play test it a bit to make sure there are no crashes or other issues. I'm acutely aware that changing rosters as much as I have and creating dozens of new players increases the chances of something going doink... so just want to make sure as best as I can 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
