Your welcome guys. Should be out tomorrow. I'm done with all the tweaks (and there are many). Just need to check the latest cyber numbers, especially if kyle gets them out.

That's true Y4L, but like a lot of sports games manuals, I don't think they do a good job of the nuances. It's only when you look in the .cfg file itself and make the manual tweaks do you get the most out of the gamepad.

Coming down the home stretch with this. Lots of pitchers' control upgrades for those that seemed to warrant it. Also, pitchers needing to be up on the MLB level given more accuracy in stamina, pitch types and speed. Occasional longer standing starters tweaked as I find them (e.g., Kershaw). Seemed to have an effect on team ratings overall. For example, Nationals are now ranked 3rd in pitching. Last phase is now about going through rosters to correct and exceedingly low or high batting ratings that don't warrant them being at those levels. Also, need to double check any player additions so that you can include them where you see fit. Also, as indicated above, injured players .mep's will be available for your re-insertion if that's what you also want. Should be another day or so. This will end up being the last roster installment of the season (barring any needs for a certain tweak).

Very true. Mutual good connections and systems with a good set of sim type rules and there's nothing better.

Actually, give PlayOn a look. I think they still have a full month's trial and is compatible with the PS3. Great streaming media app. You need a decent PC to work as your server. Streaming wirelessly is pretty good as well. It's completely legit as it has it's own built-in plug-ins, like Hulu. It's also open ended and people make plug-ins for it as well: http://www.playon.tv/

That's 5 if the OP is still around.

I thought it had to be 360 controllers designed for the PC, not the console.

Did you install those files in that order? Did you install the OFFICIAL patch (2 or 3.... I'd do 3), then the mod? If not, I would try that first and let people know what happened.

Pitched a gem with Lee vs. a heavy R handed Angels lineup. No extra base hits either way, as the only thing I scored on was a SF with Rollins on 3rd and Trout making a diving play in CF. (Strangely the lineup had him in LF and Trumbo in CF to start the game, but I caught it about mid-way and switched it). The thing I didn't like is that Trumbo got on with 2 outs in the 9th and the team didn't sub Bourjous for him to PR. I tend to help the cpu team out in such situations when it's pretty obvious what's needed. Plus Rollins reached on a single, not an error by Callaspo. It was pretty clear. Pitch counts in this got just over 100 / team. I'm going to up the CPU contact a bit and lower the control for Human pitch slightly too. PHI27.zip

And which rosters? If you're using BaseUp!, it would be best to turn off injuries and suspensions.

Understandable..... I just don't think of Zambrano as a runner.

The datafile is in the DL section. Just search files by my name. The sliders are still being finalized. As far as classic pitching, if you're interested I can get you the details.

I'm not looking for good hitters. That I can figure and have pretty much incorporated. I'm looking for pitchers who are decent runners.

Just like above. I typed "NEW" as all caps, but thread titles will not allow? So for example "MVP" shows as "Mvp".

Hey guys.... looking for some feedback in regards to decent base running pitchers with some speed. I'm looking to do away with this global "43" speed for pitchers in my next roster file and wanting to maybe do something like a "45" for a generic and "65" for decent runners. For example, for the team I know, the Phillies have Cliff Lee and Cole Hamels run better than a 45.... but not seeing that in any other pitchers. So let me know what you think and try to stay away from "homerism" :)

I recently started tinkering with MVP level sliders and I think I'm close to what I'm after. I'm interested in the continued variety of hits / outs and in-game stats, being rewarded for good pitching and selective hitting and being punished for making stupid decisions and serving up meatballs. I'm presently using classic pitching with the modified batting view I've referenced before (WS '98 type view) and it is not easy to hit. But.... I have been able to crank two out...one with John Mayberry in Miami to dead CF (so you know it was a shot) and more recently in a PHI/NYY ~ Halladay / Sabathia matchup that had a very unlikely ending. I've attached that game box. Earlier, I had Worley pitching against Cecil and gave up four solo shots. Cecil went the distance as well. I couldn't believe that he didn't get pulled as he was in the 120+ pitch range when it was all over. Back to this most recent game between PHI / NYY. It was quite a duel. Only 10 hits between the two teams when it was said and done, but there were some fist pumping moments. The Yanks struck first in the 4th, previously, early Utley and Mayberry singles in separate innings were undone by CC picking each guy off 1st when they each took unwise leads. In the 4th, A-Rod singles and stole 2nd. Cano grounded to Ryan Howard who attempted getting A-Rod trying to take 3rd and threw wide of the bag, allowing him to score and Cano to move up to 2nd. However, Halladay minimized the damage by striking out Swisher and Martin, while pitching around Ichiro. With one away in the bottom of the 5th, Ruiz waited on a back door slider and deposited it down the left field line inside the foul pole. Sabathia and Halladay exchanged innings, though the Yankees proved to be more patient with Halladay pushed to 124 pitches by the end of the 8th. In the 9th, Jeremy Horst was called in primarily to face the lefty Ichiro as the second batter, but had to get by Nick Swisher. He got Swisher to ground out and Ichiro to fly out. He was allowed to stay in and pitched around Russell Martin with Sabathia due up. CC was left in to bat as he was just under 100 pitches by that point and it appeared he would go out for the 9th. On a 2-2 count, the unthinkable happened. Horst tried to ring up Sabathia on a backdoor slider and put it in the only place where CC could do some damage. The Yanks pitcher smacked a two run shot over the right field wall, exposing the poor Phillies bullpen once again. Curiously, the Yankees decided to bring in their closer Rafael Soriano, but by making short work only needing 9 pitches, it was easy to see why. So these are the types of games I'm looking for, but I also want to see weaker pitchers getting hammered both ways at times as well. A few more games and I'll post my MVP sliders and gameplay conditions. PHI21.zip

Thanks VS....good to see a quality artist.
