  1. I think the problem here is the use of generalities that label an entire group of people rather than a subset of the group. That may not have been the intent (although I will not make any assumptions on this), but I can see how some would see it it that way. Rather than saying "Muslims", it would have been better to say "Muslim Extremists", because in my mind, that is who you were really talking about. As for badmouthing New Englanders, you and I have had plenty of conversations on that, as I fall squarely in that group. I've learned to just filter out those comments.
  2. "Anyone? " is not exactly a question that is going to get you a lot of answers. You may not have liked slydude's post, however, he did nothing wrong and he made a valid point. He was pointing out that unless you ask something meaningful, you are not going to get any help. Think about it.
  3. You can find a WBC 2013 mod here: http://www.mvpmods.com/files/file/7694-wbc-caribe-2013/ It was created by the guys at http://www.mvpcaribe.com
  4. I can speak for the TC mods, however, I'm biased since I created or worked with others to create most of them. I'm very proud of them and if you look at the comments, others seem to like them as well. When creating the TC single season mods, I (or we) tried to make them truly immersive (is that a word?) so that you feel like you are back in that particular year. In other words, you get authentic stadiums, uniforms, jukebox music, walkup music, game intro music, rosters, player portraits, player faces, etc. from the particular year being re-created. Stadium select screens, menu screens and loading screens also reflect the particular year. The announcers say player names and stadium names. For some of the mods (TC41, TC46, TC51, TC56, TC58), the default MVP announcers have been replaced by a broadcasting team of Vin Scully, Mel Allen and Ernie Harwell. This audio was a project called "Legends from the Booth" and it took a modder named OTBJoel 3 years to complete. Try any of the TC mods and you won't be disappointed. In addition, it's very easy to have multiple installations of the game on your PC so you can have multiple TC mods installed. Just take a clean (or patched) version of MVP2005, make a new folder and copy all of the MVP2005 game folder (including subfolders) to the new folder. After that, you just install the TC mod of your choice into the new folder. I keep a patched version of the original game in a folder on my PC that I never touch. It is solely there so that I can copy it to a new folder and start fresh whenever I want to install a new single season mod.
  5. What exactly are you asking for? What is the BWC mod?
  6. Just don't upload it to this site. It's against the rules.....
  7. Based upon your answer to question #1, I'm afraid we cannot help you. One of the basic rules of this website, which were in the terms you agreed to when signing up for an MVPMods account, is that we do not promote nor provide support for illegal copies of the game (i.e. downloaded versions of the game, no-CD cracks, etc.).

    help

    The roster and uniform mods should include instructions on how to install them.
  9. That's only if you want to pay for support. It will work fine without paying for support. The only thing you deal with is that after every 6th file you save, you get a pop up window asking if you'd like to purchase the fully supported version. You click "No" and then you won't see the message for 6 more saves. I've been using Sublime Text without paying for support for almost two years with no problems.
  10. Sublime Text is great. It's the editor I use for software development at work and also at home.
  11. You can also use eazip to uncompress and compress the file: eazip -u datafile.txt to uncompress eazip -c datafile.txt to compress
  12. I'm not saying that we don't discuss issues with MVP or MLB2K running with Windows 10. I'm saying that we don't discuss issues related to having illegal copies of the game or anything that looks like we are encouraging users to get illegal copies of the game.
  13. If that's the case, then we won't discuss it any longer, as we don't provide support for illegal copies of the game.
  14. Sorry, but we don't provide support for cracked files. It is against the site rules. This topic is being closed.
  15. OK, sorry about that. I misunderstood what you were referring to.
  16. The only problem with that is if you have a thread that a lot of people are commenting on. For example, if you had a 15 comment limit, how many MVP15 support threads would we have had? You'd then have to indicate somewhere in the title which thread it is so that if someone new comes on and sees an MVP15 support thread, they know that the one they are looking at is the 7th thread and there were 6 previous threads covering the same topic.
  17. That's enough of that, so just let it drop. Your comment is no more helpful than Y4L's and in fact is worse. He was making a joke. Your message is clearly a personal attack by bringing up things that occurred in the past. If you don't like someone's comment, just ignore it.
  18. Most mods have a Readme file with them. Have you looked at these instructions after extracting all of the files from the mod?

    hello

    Welcome back! It's great to see you here.
  20. The file you downloaded is a Zip archive file. It contains a number of other files. You need to extract the contents of it with a utility like WinZip or WinRAR. I just looked in the Zip file and it contains a number of other folders and files, including a set of instructions on how to install the files in the mod.
  21. You're right, I misspoke. You DO get the current year stats. Making trades like you suggest will work. You will just have to create from scratch any rookies that appeared in 1971 or keep two copies of MVPEdit running, one with 1970 players (the one you are making trades on) and one with 1971 players. When you create a rookie in your 1970 roster, you would manually copy all of his attributes from his entry from his 1971 roster.
  22. It can be done, but you would need to change a number of different things: In-game text, uniforms, logos, the default stadium, stadium name audio and team name audio. Some things are easy to change. Others take more work to do.
  23. There's an easier way to import stats rather than doing it manually and it is how I start all my TC rosters. When you want to start creating rosters, grab the teams from the Lahman Database in MVPEdit. For each team do the following: Open a roster file in MVPEdit (it can be any roster)On the top menubar, select File->Import->Team from Lahman DatabaseA scrolling list of teams will appear from 1871 - to the present (or at least to the present when the version of the Lahman Database in MVPEdit was created)Select your team (for example, 1971 Baltimore Orioles)Select the option to "Import Stats to Current Year" (and not "Import Stats for All Years"). This will insure that only stats through the 1970 season are imported.Select the option to "Replace Existing Team" (and not "Add Team")Select the team you want to overwrite (in this case you want to replace the Baltimore Orioles in MVPEdit with the 1971 Baltimore Orioles)Click OKYou have now imported the 1971 Orioles into MVPEdit. You will note that there will be more than 25 players on the roster. That's because if a player gets one at-bat or pitches one inning, Lahman includes him on the roster for that year. You then have to trim your rosters down to 25 players using whatever method you want. I use www.retrosheet.org to get the 25 players (15 position players and 10 pitchers) who played or pitched the most games for the team that year. No player appears on more than one roster and if he played on multiple teams that year, he shows up on the one where he played the most. As far as TC mods, I am working on another project, however, I'm following my standard practice of not giving out any details until it is released. This way, I can work on it at my own pace and not feel any pressure to rush something out.
  24. Many of the Total Classics mods (Total Classics 1969, 1974, 1975, 1977, 1984 and 1994) include the Expos. There is also at least one Expos team (1980, I think) in the original Total Classics mod.
