I know the mod you are talking about but I never installed it. I'm tempted to modify the description page for the mod just to get rid of the garbage characters that are displayed, but I'm concerned that if I do that, the mod will appear on the front page again and folks will think that it is a new mod, prompting questions about what has changed in it. I guess I'll just let sleeping dogs lie..... :)

I definitely read them, if for no other reason than to see what the mods I create look like when someone is actually playing them! I'm usually too busy thinking about or working on the NEXT mod to have time to play the one I just released. It's the sacrifice I make to keep the members here happy..... ^_^
-
Your powers of reasoning are astute as always. That's exactly the reason why I included the '98 Devil Rays in the mod.

Once you convert your mp3 files to asf format, rename them to menu1.asf, menu2.asf, menu3.asf, etc. (up to menu9.asf). Once you have renamed them, copy them to your EA SPORTS\MVP Baseball 2005\data\audio\cd\music folder. If you want the names of the new songs to show up in the game, you must edit the EA SPORTS\MVP Baseball 2005\data\FEENG.LOC file with the LOCLook utility.

Trues - The new front page of the website looks great. I noticed one glitch and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced it. When I first enter the website, everything loads except for the forum posts listed under the "Recent Topics" header. There are no posts listed. If I click the refresh button on my browser, the page reloads and the posts then show up. I've seen this with both Internet Explorer and Firefox. I can live with this trivial issue but figured I'd see if anyone else has seen this.

Just noticed that if you click on the Total Classics section in the upper right hand corner of the main page, an error message is displayed.

eBay is also a great resource, since there are so many cards for sale there.
-
eBay, Google image search, Altavista image search - I've used all of them when looking for portraits and images for loading screens, menu screens, license and CTS screens, etc.

Thank you very much and welcome to MVPMods! Every little bit helps and it is greatly appreciated.

The 1946 World Series was the first one played with rosters not depleted by the War since 1941. It featured the St. Louis Cardinals, taking part in their fourth World Series in five years, against the Boston Red Sox, who were making their first World Series appearance since Babe Ruth was a young left-handed pitcher in 1918. The Series would turn out to be a classic, seven-game, see-saw affair, with one play in particular, Enos Slaughter's "Mad Dash." In the eighth inning of Game 7, with the score 3–3, the Cardinals' Enos Slaughter opened the inning with a single but two batters failed to advance him. With two outs, Harry Walker walloped a hit over Johnny Pesky's head into left-center field. As Leon Culberson chased it down, Slaughter started his dash. Pesky caught Culberson's throw, turned and perhaps surprised to see Slaughter headed for the plate, hesitated just a split second before throwing home. Roy Partee had to take a few steps up the third base line to catch Pesky's toss, but Slaughter was safe without a play at the plate and Walker was credited with an RBI double. The Cardinals won the game and the Series in seven games, giving them their sixth championship. The Red Sox, meanwhile, saw their title drought extended and they had to wait until 1967 for another World Series appearance, ------------------------------------------- The Total Classics 1946 mod brings you the sights and sounds of the 1946 baseball season. Besides rosters, portraits, uniforms and audios, the mod provides themed menu and loading screens, stadium select screens with actual stadium photos, 1940's jukebox music, 1940's batter walkup music, an accurate 1946 schedule and correct 1940's era stadiums for every team. Please see the ReadMe file for more details and read the Installation Instructions on how to install the mod. ------------------------------------------- *** BONUS *** For those who want to recreate breaking the color barrier in baseball, a number of African-American greats who broke into the major leagues during the period 1947-51 have been included in TC1946. These players can be found in the AAA team rosters of the teams they broke in with. The players, the team they broke in with (and the AAA team where they can be found in TC1946) are as follows: Sam Jethroe - Boston Braves (Richmond Braves) Roy Campanella - Brooklyn Dodgers (Las Vegas 51's) Don Newcombe - Brooklyn Dodgers (Las Vegas 51's) Jackie Robinson - Brooklyn Dodgers (Las Vegas 51's) Minnie Minoso - Chicago White Sox (Charlotte Knights) Larry Doby - Cleveland Indians (Buffalo Bisons) Luke Easter - Cleveland Indians (Buffalo Bisons) Satchel Paige - Cleveland Indians (Buffalo Bisons) Monte Irvin - New York Giants (Fresno Grizzlies) Willie Mays - New York Giants (Fresno Grizzlies) Hank Thompson - St. Louis Browns (Ottawa Lynx) ------------------------------------------- *** VERSION HISTORY *** <u>v3.0</u> Added DennisJames' new 1946 uniforms and updated logos <u>v2.0</u> Added OTBJoel's Legends from the Booth audio mod <u>v1.0</u> Initial release -
Total Classics 10 and the classic single season mods (TC1951, TC1956, TC1969, TC1978, etc.) use the same audio numbering system and the same audio files, so this mod should work for all of them! :yahoo:
-
Sean - At some point, you need to update the list, since Braves Field is available in TC1951.
-
They are just limited to 2 downloads per day rather than unlimited downloads which is what the subscription gets you.
-
It would be written if he visited the site, but since we all know that doesn't happen (right? ), why bother?
-
I'm sure you have good points here. Unfortunately, I can't make sense of your English. Thanks for trying, however.
-
It will never happen -- Too many bridges have been burned. As for the demise of MVPMods, to quote Mark Twain, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.....

I asked Trues earlier whether reducing the number of downloadable files would help. After all, how many people need a 2005, 2006, 2007 AND 2008 version of Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park, etc. Do we really need 2005, 2006, 2007 AND 2008 versions of Blue Jay uniforms? Etc., etc., etc. You could really free up a lot of storage space by doing some housecleaning. Unfortunately, storage space isn't the real issue. It's more about CPU usage, bandwidth, etc.
-
You're comparing apples and oranges here. Over at EAMods, a couple of modders were charging a per download fee for individual mods (which they have every right to do). At this site, you are paying a flat price for unlimited downloads of all mods (present and future).
-
I'm not sure that this would be work. For example, is it fair that someone who downloads one Total Classics mod (average size about 400 Mb), pays more than someone who downloads 15 stadiums (size 10 Mb) or 50 individual uniforms (size 3 Mb each)? The guy who downloads one large mod would pay more that the guy who downloads 50 smaller mods. If this then discourages people from downloading the larger mods (like the TC single season mods), it might discourage those modders (like me) from creating those mods. And what happens if your download of a large mod dies 3/4 of the way through (loss of connection, etc.). Do you then have to pay to download it again? How many people will be contacting Trues for refunds when they run into problems? This would be a bookkeeping nighmare for him. To me, the simple "one fee for unlimited downloads" is the easiest solution here. You pay once and you are set for life. No muss, no fuss.......
-
That would work, but what if the file hosting service went out of business? Didn't you run into that problem earlier this year with some of your mods on EAMods? I can't remember the exact name of the file hosting service (FileFront?), but I do recall it happening. Having to then scramble and move 3900 files in a hurry wouldn't be an easy task. $10 is a bargain for what is being offered...
-
I just noticed that the Total Classics logo in the upper right corner of the website just returns you to the main MVPMods page. Should it point to the Total Classics page that used to be available?
-
If you are seeing those crashes when you are trying to start a game, it sounds like a cyberface issue, namely that your roster reference a cyberface that is not in your models.big file.
-
I can confirm that this IS still being worked on, but as Y4L said, it is a very large project so it will still be a while before this is ready to be released.

Another thing to remember is that Spencer was not a regular starter in 1998 (i.e. he came off the bench or started a game here or there). He wouldn't be in the regular batting order, so if you were to sim a season, it's not like he would win the triple crown or run away with the MVP award that season. The issue you are looking at is one that we do have to deal with when creating mods for much older seasons (before the DH came into effect) or when working with NL teams. Because pitchers can get a small number of at bats (especially relievers), if they come to bat 20 times and get 10 hits, they are hitting .500 so MVPEdit gives them contact ratings of 100. This is where stecropper's global and individual tweaks come into play because they allow us to address this issue.
