  1. Hmmm not sure about the 23. I'll have to do some digging.
    This is a good first effort. I would suggest using Photoshop or other photo editing software so you can remove the background around the logo.
  2. I have been able to edit every single team name and stadium name audio without issue and here is the tutorial I created. Hopefully this helps, since I have used these exact steps to edit several teams/stadiums. If you still have issues after using this tutorial, I can't help further.
  3. Could you please post how you solved this? If someone has this issue in the future, it would be good to know how it was fixed, rather than just how you fixed it. Some people (namely myself) use the search tool to see what the solutions are. Thank you in advance.

  5. Looks like everything is right in MVPedit but you don't have the texture downloaded for the sleeves. You'll have to rip that from a game file that does have the sleeves (which is just arm skin colors). I'm not positive, but they may be found in the initstaz.big file where you can find the data for balls, bats, gloves, etc.
  6. Make sure you've selected the correct directory for the MVP version you'd like to edit. In the options menu of MVPedit, on the lefthand side, choose the one you'd like to see the portraits and faces for. If you have multiple folders for different mods, it'll go with the default MVP Baseball 2005 folder.
  7. Last ditch option is the extractor tool, which can be found in the MVP Baseball 2005 - Tools & Editors section of our downloads. You may have to change the language to English since I think it's somthing different in the default settings, but that's how I've managed to get tricky team sound files from MVP05. Open the .big file in that, and if that doesn't work, I've got nothin'.
  8. Make sure the .big file isn't set to "read only". If the file is read-only, it won't let you load or extract anything.
  9. Only other program I can think of is bigGUI. It's not great, but it should do the work.
  10. Yeah, my plan is to have screenshots and maybe have a daily or series recap "newspaper" with screenshots and written articles. I might try to do videos for the big games, but it'll depend on the memory resources that get taken up. The computer I run MVP on is on the older side and I'm not sure if it'll be able to handle Movie Maker. As for a team, the easy answer is the Yankees since I really got into baseball watching the 98 Yanks. I do have a soft spot for the Expos though.
  11. Hey all, So once MVP 98 is (finally) released, I wanted to get a dynasty going. This has happened in fits and starts for a while (and if any mods are reading this, all my other previous dynasty posts can be deleted/archived if not already). I'm thinking about doing this regardless of responses here, but I wanted to see how many people were interested in a possible simulated radio broadcast featuring commentary by yours truly? It's truly a hobby for me, but I did go to school for broadcast journalism and want to breathe life back into these old games and the dynasties, which seems to be a forgotten (or too inconsistent) feature of this site. The medium would likely be audio only because the video takes up way too much bandwidth on my MVP-dedicated computer. So please feel free to chime in if you'd like, if you have any ideas for features, if you'd be interested in pregame/recap shows, if you have an ideas for fake sponsors, etc.
  12. I'm planning to tackle that eventually. I'm just working on MVP 98 first. Coming into the home stretch - just working on portraits and front end art now. But once that happens, I'll probably slide back into some uni modding.
  13. Just replied to your DM, but I use Photoshop to edit my uniforms and stadiums.
  14. That'd be interesting for sure.
  15. Truist Park. American Family Field. Guys named Arismendy Alcantara. The Tri-City Dust Devils. These have one thing in common - they are a pain in the butt to get into MVP Baseball 2005. Even if you're a great audio modder, things like this can really drive you nuts. That's why I've created this collaboration request. I'm willing and ready to lend my voice to become the new play-by-play announcer of MVP Baseball 2005. I just need someone who's willing to take the pbpdat.big file and help convert those audio files to ones that I create with all of these new names. This will be a heavy undertaking - a lot like Legends of the Booth - but it would only be replacing Kuiper announce. If anyone is interested in teaming up to make things a bit more current, please let me know.
  16. Rather than using templates, what I typically do is look for other mods that have been created for a similar era and then recreating them to my own specifications. The only tutorial with templates I know of is Kennyess's Jersey Template, but I wasn't happy with how my uniforms were coming out. If you've got photoshop or other image editing software, I'd highly encourage you to find an 80s uniform mod and then modify it as you need. As for stadiums, I can't help you out there. I know ZMod has a stadium editing tutorial, but I was never good with the oEdit program enough to make anything come of it. The best I can do is just edit things around in the cram32.fsh file and modify minor things while keeping the basic "skeleton" of the base stadium.

    After literal years of trying to get this to work, I've finally cracked the code on how to edit team and stadium audio. If you're looking to finally update the various leagues to their present day team names, if you're looking to finally have that new corporate sponsored stadium name, or if you want to roll things back for a Total Classic, this tutorial will teach you how to do just that. The tutorial comes with a MSWord document and the NHL 07-06 ASF Player, a tool needed to export files.
  18. I suppose, but it wouldn't be Game 163 for the two wild card teams unless it was something from back in the day where they'd do a Game 163 to determine a division winner. So I guess it might be possible (never played around with it much) by creating a 163 game schedule, but I can't guarantee that it'd feature the playoff matchup.
  19. I'm pretty sure that the length of the playoffs is hardcoded into the .exe. I think you can modify the length of the playoff series, but I don't think there's a way to add to it without getting all up in the guts of the mvp2005.exe file.
  20. So according to multiple current players, the Yankees analytics team has been overwhelming with new players, bombarding them with all sorts of information that they don't necessarily know how to decipher. When you don't have a manager that can communicate what all these numbers mean, it's going to lead to dips in performance. And the Yankees have gone all in on analytics to the point it's paralyzing. It's like freaking pumpkin spice. So when you get away from that, you're gonna do better.

    Site Issues

    No luck there either. I disabled my ad blocker and my popup blocker and I'm still having issues with getting the two factor window to pop up. Kinda frustrating. Ended up disabling 2FA.

    Site Issues

    Hey all. Having an issue using Microsoft Edge where I can't get the 2 factor authentication window to pop up. I've disabled my popup blockers and ad blockers, and nothing is coming through. It's the most recent version of Edge on Windows 11. Was able to access things via Chrome though.

    As a treat for those who have been waiting patiently for MVP Baseball 1998, I've created this intro video for the game. I'll be trying to convert it to .vp6 so that it can actually play in the game as the intro video. But we shall see. Hope you enjoy the flashbacks to 98!
