  1. The instructions do not say that. This is what they say: - After you have downloaded the "MVP13.7z" file, double-click to open it. - Extract the contents of the MVP13.7z file into a folder. <-- This does not say "in the same folder as a fresh installation" - Double-click the "explodeme.exe' file - Select the folder that contains a CLEAN copy of MVP Baseball 2005 and click "Extract". Note that a CLEAN copy is a fresh install or a patched, non-modded install of the game. <-- This is where you extract the files to. It is NOT where you copy the explodeme.exe. - Allow the program to extract all of the new content. If the installer asks for your permission to overwrite files, select "Yes to All" - When installation is complete, start the game and play the new MVP 13 mod! Try again, doing what the instructions say to do. Also, you never indicated whether you are using the actual game discs or trying to install on top of a downloaded version of the game.
  2. Here's a link to BigGUI: http://forums.nba-live.com/downloads.php?view=detail&df_id=14 Personally, I use a DOS (aka command prompt) utility called eazip, because I've had issues with BigGui and EAGraph causing file corruption. For what you want to do, you could issue the following eazip command to add those files to models.big: eazip +a models.big c823.* This compresses the files and adds them to models.big Here's some more information on the subject from a post I made 3 years ago: http://www.mvpmods.com/index.php?showtopic=52167&p=622947
  3. Plenty of people have run the game under Windows 7. We need more information (PC specifications, Are you using discs or a downloaded version of the game, etc.). Just saying "the game won't start" doesn't tell us much. It's like someone telling you "My car won't start."
  4. If you re-read the post and look at all of the things that are considered off-topic, you will see that Y4L wasn't being serious.
  5. Based upon Yankee4Life's comment and the fact that Bucbull16 removed this piece of information from his post, this thread is now being closed.
  6. I've tried to stay on the sidelines with this whole conversation after making my previous post, but I feel I need to step back in and say something. Why should anyone have to explain to you whether erix was suspended or banned. It's not your business. As I clearly stated in my last post, NO ONE is above the rules. Anyone who breaks the rules will be held accountable. He broke the rules and he was suspended. If you'd like to read the rules, which you clearly haven't done, here they are: http://www.mvpmods.com/index.php?app=forums&module=extras&section=boardrules Here's one you might find interesting: Oops. I guess you missed that one. Here's another one: Uhhhhh..... I guess you forgot that one too when you decided to step on your soapbox and hijack this thread. As for erix, here's why he is not here right now: The rules are clearly spelled out. People just don't take the time to read them when they join. If you don't like what we do here, no one is forcing you to come here. This site is supposed to be a place where those with a common interest can come to discuss a game they enjoy and share information and mods. Let's try to keep it that way.
  7. Did you put the explodeme file in the MVP2005 folder and then run it from there? If so, that might cause a problem. Put the explodeme file somewhere else (some guys have put it on their desktop) and then run it.
  8. Here you go. Rusty_Staub_c881.rar At some point, I will release another version of TC1984. I want to hear about the LOC issues that kyleb mentioned before releasing a new version.
  9. I was right -- Rusty Staub on the Mets also uses face #881. If you replace face #881 with the Dave Parker face, Parker will be OK, but now Staub will be African-American. Face #884 is not used in the rosters, so I think that renaming the face that Dennis provided to #884, importing it into the models.big file and then changing Dave Parker's face # to 884 in MVPEdit will allow both Staub and Parker to have their correct faces.
  10. Thanks Dennis. I was planning to look through the rosters to make sure that no other player had #881, which looks like it is Rusty Staub's face. kyle - What LOC errors did you find?
  11. That's why I'm on year 5 of my TC1978 Yankees dynasty. I don't mean that I'm in the 5th season of the dynasty. I mean that I STILL haven't finished the dynasty I started 5 years ago! I'll go months at a time between playing and then I may find the time to play a game or two. My goal was (and still is) to play all 162 games, plus the playoffs, and right now, I'm about 130 games into the season.
  12. Wait a minute. -- You mean we actually get to play games with these mods?? I thought that as modders we were supposed to spend months (or years in the case of TC1984) developing the mods, release them, celebrate for an hour or two patting ourselves on the back for another job well done and then start working on the next mod. Nobody told me that we could play games like everybody else!
  13. Rollins -- Please don't bump your threads to get them to move to the top of the list. It's against site rules.

    Total Classics 1984 By Jim825 & dennisjames71 The best teams of the 1984 baseball season had previously posed little threat of contention. The San Diego Padres, who closed the year as National League West winners, had just one winning season in their 15-year existence. Neither the Cubs nor Mets, who duked it out in the National League East, had challenged for the pennant in over a decade. And the Tigers, who became 1984 World Series Champions, hadn't been to the playoffs since 1972. The Tigers were the premier team of 1984, going 104-58. Their pitching was solid, with Jack Morris, Dan Petry, and Milt Wilcox all winning at least 17 games. Reliever Willie Hernandez won both the Cy Young and MVP Awards, posting 32 saves in his first 32 opportunities. The Detroit offense, powered by Kirk Gibson, Lance Parrish, Alan Trammell, and Chet Lemon, led the league in homers and runs scored. Their up-the-middle defense, with Parrish, Trammell, Lemon, and Lou Whitaker, was the best in baseball. With this attack, the Tigers opened the season 35-5, easily capturing the division. In the West, Kansas City edged out the Angels and Twins, despite winning only 84 games. The Royals' only standout player was Dan Quisenberry, who notched 44 saves. The 1984 World Series was a formality, as Detroit rolled through the Padres' starting pitching and won the 1984 World Series four games to one. To show how dominant Detroit was in 1984, check out this stat: Including the postseason, the Tigers were 100-0 when leading after eight innings. ------------------------------------------- The Total Classics 1984 mod brings you the sights and sounds of the 1984 baseball season. Besides rosters, portraits, uniforms and audios, the mod provides themed menu screens and loading screens, stadium select screens with actual stadium photos, 1984 jukebox music, 1984 batter walkup music, an accurate 1984 schedule, a 1980's era overlay and correct 1980's era stadiums for every team. ------------------------------------------- *** INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS *** - After you download the total_classics_1984.7z file, double-click to open it. - Extract the contents of the file into a folder. - Double-click the explodeme.exe file - Find the location of a CLEAN (or patched) copy of MVP Baseball 2005 and click "Extract". - Allow the program to extract all of the new content. - Play the new Total Classics 1984 mod. ------------------------------------------- *** VERSION HISTORY *** v3.0 - Added correct face for Dave Parker - Added correct face for Milt Wilcox - Fixed incorrect Montreal Expos team name text on some screens v2.0 Added dennisjames71's 1984 stadiums that were mistakenly left out of the v1.0 release. v1.0 Initial release
  15. Neither Trues nor the Admins have to explain anything to you, but I will -- just this once. NO ONE is above the rules -- not regular members, not contributors, not modders and not Admins. If someone breaks the rules, no matter who they are and no matter what they've contributed to the site, they will be disciplined, including being banned, if necessary. You state "that is completely wrong considering all he has done for this site and the game." He's contributed 9 mods. There are guys who have contributed ten times that many mods, and if they break the rules, they will be disciplined just the same. Your comment about this site profiting off of modders' work? As KC correctly stated, no one profits from mods being hosted here. The only reward that modders get is the satisfaction of seeing a mod posted and maybe a small ego boost when someone compliments them on their work. As for Trues, he doesn't get one dime from these mods, nor does he expect to. He does get donations from contributors, but that's all voluntary and any money he does get goes into paying the costs to keep the site running. This site doesn't have many rules (don't make duplicate accounts, don't steal the work of others and pass it off as your own, don't talk about illegal downloads of the game, etc.), so they shouldn't be hard to follow. If someone is not willing to follow them, then they deserve any punishment they receive.
  16. Dennis and I have been swapping PM's this week for a project we are working on, so he is alive and well.
  17. I found it in the HH2004 files over at SimCentral.net. Here's a link to those files: http://simcentral.net/forums/downloads.php?do=cat&id=24 Here's DangerZ's editor: HHedit2004.zip
  18. Actually, if you recall, 2003 didn't have mouse support. According to the documentation that came with the game, it had "mounse" support.
  19. I stand corrected then. I never realized there was a version of TiT for MLB2K.
  20. And if asking nicely is not sufficient, stronger actions will be necessary.
  21. Are you getting an error message when you try to upload? If so, what exactly are you seeing? You should be able to upload, but your file might not be immediately visible to everyone. An admin would have to approve it. I don't see any messages indicating that there is a new download that I )or any of the other admins) need to approve.
  22. Even if you could install TiT, it wouldn't help you. That utility is for MVP2005 and not the MLB2K games.
  23. Nomar singlehandedly (no pun intended) caused the average completion time for a game to increase due to his habit of stepping out of the batter's box after every pitch and adjusting the velcro on each batting glove 5 or 6 times!
  24. Please be patient. They will upload their mods when they feel they are ready. Continuing to ask for mods to be uploaded will not get them there any sooner!
