KerryW Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 If so, please e-mail it to me at polishman_mc@yahoo.com ..thanks I had to reinstall my game, but before I can install mods I obviously need to install the patch....Plus, EA's MVP 2005 section on their site is down, so I cannot download it from there...

big shmooz Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 What exactly does this file do anyway? BTW... I have not installed this file & I can install mods all I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Show Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Exactly, why do you need to install the patch first and then the mods? I did the opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriegz Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Because when you install the patch it won't work if you have mods installed in most cases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Show Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 It did work in my case. It doesn't make sense. When EA releases another patch and mods are installed, then what would happen? Reinstall, install the patch and install the mods again? Guess I'm lucky that I installed the mods, then installed the patch and everything works great.

Kriegz Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Yeah it must have been a certain file that the update looks for when it installed and you must not have updated that one yet :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Show Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitoon Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I think if you've installed any rosters the patch will not install (or if you are using a noCD patch)... What you need to do is back up all your .dat files and then put the original ones back in the folder, install the patch, then replace your modded .dat's and you should be good. If you are still having problems when you install the patch, when it stops and says "original file not found", just move the pop up box and read what file it got stuck on. Go and replace that file from the CD's and try again. Repeat as needed. It only checks for files that it's updating, so a modded models.big is not likely to cause a problem.

big shmooz Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Spitoon, correct, it's the same as last years patch updates. You needed the original roster files & the exe file. Btw... can anybody tell me what the patch updates? If it's only rosters, why would I need it, but if it does something else too, then I guess it should be installed. Anybody???

The Show Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 So that means, that when a new patch comes out I would have to restore the original roster files(BTW, where are they located)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought someone did a 'compare' on the .exe's and it showed some changes...Having said that, I understood it to be just a roster update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
