Controllers for the most part for me seem connected in an imagic way for me.... and with MVP the layout is typically pretty sound. Here's an example of a game I had today.... and I don't consider myself a HR hitter in the least, but right pitch, swing, condition, timing and you've got it. And I don't "pre-load" as described above by dannyt. I generally move the stick right at the last second to the zone I'm keying in on. In the example, it was pretty atypical in terms of number of hits total. And I didn't get going until the 4th inning as you can see. The Pence salami in the 1st was on a mistake pitch by Lee (me) and it was deserved, especially with the wind blowing right to left and strong. The Utley slam I just caught in the lefty power zone (down/in). It was more of a reaction swing vs. I was looking there, but I caught every bit of it and upper decked it. The Rollins slam barely eeked over the left field fence. Overall, though, you see pretty realistic pitch totals and Lee didn't have a great day, with his offense bailing him out. Overall 27 hits, but only 5 extra base hits (and I usually can get my share of double, but it just didn't present itself). So the possibilities are there. By the way, this is the controller I'm using and I absolutely love it. PHI7.zip

1. Open MVPedit 2. Import 3. Point the selection to the data/database folder 4. Name it 5. Edit (remember, it saves on the fly, so you can't go backwards) 6. As long as you don't corrupt the database and break the rules of who should be in the slots and number of players on teams, you can export to anywhere.

The Xbox version played differently as well. But smacking 13 HR's in a game is just as unexciting as hitting none. I think you want to go for realism. Hitting HR"s is also based on what level and what slider set you use. As far as controllers, my preference is the Saitek models.

You've gotta change your title!! The word "beginner" has no place there any longer!!

I actually......... do not. I ended up packaging it with a modded Xbox and some other peripherals and put the money towards a PS3 Move system a couple of Christmases ago. All in all it was the thing to do, but I miss NFL 2K5 on the Xbox and MVP still played a pretty good game there too. Was true 720p as well. The Dreamcast overall never grabbed my like the Saturn did. But I still consider getting another modded Xbox. However, PS3 games that aren't that dated are really coming down in price.

I apologize if I missed seeing some of them. I do remember Hanigan now.

Also, if you have 2 or more installs, you may not be pointing it to the correct database subfolder. But I always use what johne said above.

I'm certainly not requesting anything here, only going through the major league's current 25 man rosters and wondering what others think in terms of players who may deserve their own cyberfaces. There certainly seems to be some in the minor leagues who we may never hear from again who currently do have their own cyberface. See if you think any of these may deserve their own (obviously I went through the team ATL - WAS): Durbin Teagarden Hanigan Coke Dirks Dyson Getz Bourjos Bobby Wilson Plouffe Thole David Robertson Kratz (ok, that's a homer pick!) John Baker Forsythe Jesus Guzman Venable Romo Craig Keppinger Robbie Ross Lombardozzi

Which roster set? Generally any one will have KC or Houston. Colorado has some merits.

Then go to the first page, download the file and look it up. What do you think anyone else does?

ID list is on the very first page and it's updated just about monthly.

So, if I'm understanding this right.... and if I read between the lines properly..... Homer is "boooing" Griffey being a "9". So that can only mean Homer thinks he's a "10"..... and that can..... only..... mean...... (fetal position)

Phase 5, v2, will include a reflection of DFA's guys and a few more player creations as needed. Give me a few days.

Have you seen his mug? He should keep the beard! ;)
