No problem. When we developed Total Classics, we really didn't really do a lot of dynasty / owner mode / sim testing. Most of what we centered on exhibition games.

I was talking specifically about the Total Classics mod. What is a "cfs"?

Did you try to play an exhibition game? Did that crash as well?

When you installed Total Classics, did you install it for dynasty play? I believe I put an option in the installer for that. If you install for non-dynasty play, all 120 teams display player stats during the game, however, all 120 team are considered major league teams. The schedule only includes the 30 teams in the major league slots, so if you try to play a dynasty with a team in a minor league slot, the game will crash. If you install for dynasty play, the teams in the minor league slots won't show player stats but playing a dynasty will not cause the game to crash. I think this Is explained in the installation instructions I included with the mod.

Exactly what mod are you talking about.? There is no "Total Conversion 2005" mod.

$30! That's a great deal. If I didn't already have two copies of the game, I'd jump all over that.

MVPEdit doesn't know anything about the settings in the game (i.e. whether you use the DH in both leagues). It only deals with the roster files themselves. NL teams will only show 8 players in the batting order and AL teams will show 9 players.

I've got to disagree with you on this one. Anybody who can actually MAKE money from all the snow we've been getting here is a genius in my book! I only wish that I had come up with this idea.....

I'd go with the 1978 season mod. I've always liked the way that season ended.....

The schedule file only contains 3 years worth of schedules. I don't know if when you continue to a 4th year the schedule wraps back around to year one or if it repeats year three over and over.

I might be interested to check it out, even if it can't be modded. The only real games I play on MVP2005 are Total Classics games. I don't play with the modern teams. The big thing for me would be the PC requirements for this game. MVP still runs smooth as silk on my 2004 Windows XP PC with the 512 MB video card that I bought about 6 years ago. I do also have a Windows-7 laptop with built-in graphics that runs MVP2005 as well, but I prefer the bigger screen on the desktop PC.

What OS are you running? Windows XP? Windows-7? Windows-8?

Yes I do. Thanks for asking.

I assume you were paying a compliment to those of us who live in Massachusetts, commending us for our heartiness and our tolerance for cold weather. That's what you were doing, right?

Thanks for the nice write-up on TC1977. As you've seen (pun intended!), Dennis' expertise and craftsmanship goes beyond uniforms. He did all of the menu and loading screens, the logos, etc. He truly is a master.

File Name: Total Classics 1977 File Submitter: Jim825 File Submitted: 30 Nov 2014 File Category: Total Classics Version: 1.0 Total Classics 1977 By Jim825 & dennisjames71 Mix an arrogant slugger, a tempestuous manager and an impatient owner, and you've got the Yankees 1977 baseball season. Prior to 1977, free agent Reggie Jackson left the Baltimore Orioles and joined the Yankee roster. During the season, Reggie fought with Yankees manager Billy Martin, who clashed with owner George Steinbrenner, who didn't get along with anyone. Yankeeland quickly became known as the "Bronx Zoo." At the start of 1977, it looked like the Yankees would breeze to the playoffs. They won 97 in 1976, and now they added Jackson, Don Gullett, Mike Torrez, and Bucky Dent -- not to mention rookie phenom Ron Guidry. But the Yanks' season wasn't easy. New York won the American League East with 100 victories, but had to weather serious challenges from Baltimore and Boston, which both finished 2-1/2 games behind. In the American League West, Kansas City won 102 games and took the division by 8 games over Texas. In the National League, the big news was the trade of Tom Seaver to Cincinnati. The 32-year-old righthander posted a 14-3 record with the Reds, 21-6 overall. The Reds finished 10 games behind the Dodgers. Steve Garvey (.297 average, 33 homers, 115 RBI), Reggie Smith (.307 average, 32 homer), Ron Cey (30 homers, 110 RBI), and Dusty Baker (.291 average, 30 homers) did the damage. The Dodgers became the only team in history to boast four players with at least 30 homers. In the National League Championship Series, Los Angeles downed Philly in four games, with Baker blasting two key homers. The American League Championship Series went down to the last inning of game five. New York burned Kansas City pitchers for three runs in the top of the ninth to win the deciding game 5-3. The 1977 World Series between Los Angeles and New York became Jackson's private stage. In the sixth and final game, Mr. October launched three homers on three successive pitches to join another Yankee, Babe Ruth, as the only other player to hit three round-trippers in one Series game. Jackson batted .450 and belted a record five homers for the Series. ------------------------------------------- the Total Classics 1977 mod brings you the sights and sounds of the 1977 baseball season.

It doesn't matter. This site has rules and they must be followed.

I've never installed anything past Patch 2.

I suggest that you send back a PM with the following message: "You're welcome. I hope the non-help I gave you was worth every penny you paid for it. I look forward to not helping you again in the future, and I'll be happy to pass along your name to all my modder friends here. I am sure that they would be more than happy to provide you with the same amount of non-help as I have. Have a non-pleasant day."

It's probably got something to do with his username.

Thanks for taking the time to do this!

Done.

We (the Admins) are working on a plan now to get broken links fixed. Stay tuned for more details......

One file appears to be a roster and the other appears to be portraits. Do you want one or both of these removed?
