Maybe the chin will be more pointy if the entire face is narrowed? That's what seems needed.

First off, despite finding most slider to be highly effective and sensitive, I don't think that's the case with cpu contact/power. I think the cpu bats respond mostly (if not entirely) to the contact/power attributes assigned as well as percentages for various abilities (such as HR's). Therefore, put the contact/power sliders for cpu on -50 and see if you get a difference. You'll feel like you're cheating the cpu, but you're not. Secondly, yes, go for the green zone. Also don't "over throw". Try going for a 90% or so pitch. The colors in the strike zone are hot and cold zones for the batter and have nothing to do with the pitch meter. A batter making contact with a pitch in the cold zone can still get a hit and even a HR depending on what you did with your pitch and that batter's particular contact ability. Another factor is the datafile you use, if any (datafile.txt). This file can be manipulated to increase or decrease power for hot and cold (and medium) zones. Lastly, yes, throw balls. Just like actual baseball, try to get the cpu to fish....they'll do it, but not all the time. Be smart. If it's a 3-1 count to a great hitter, don't give him anything too juicy. If the situation warrants it, chance the walk. A lot of this also depends on your particular set up with sliders, difficulty level that you're on, etc.

If you've narrowed it to the specific stadium, then not much you can do but either repair it yourself or hope whoever modded it repair it. Typically stadium updates aren't much more than advertisement signs changing. That's not to say that some updates are pretty major, though sometimes it goofs up the cameras and the ball can go into hidden areas because a wall was moved, etc. I just checked on mine and the day stadium crashed. I'm not sure if the night stadium crashes, but if not, then change all your games to night.

Hehe...ya, that was a bit odd KC. You started this thread to show off wallpapers and then you only told us about the Linux one.

What you can do is download MVPedit. Then download a recent roster and look at ratings that way. (You would need to unzip the rosters into a folder, like a temporary one on your desktop, and then import them to MVPedit). Manually posting all of those ratings would take a great deal of time. This way you have ratings not just for the Cubs, but for all MLB teams.

That looks sweet.... it's a pain to manually space them out, but that works. My only 2c is because you have the busy color bg, why not make all the icons b&w? I also did this vintage Avengers one a bit back. It's basically the first cover splash pose for the big 4. But I took liberties with the coloring . Left room top and bottom for icons.

Excellent stuff! Yes, a patch doesn't have to include major items. A patch can be to adjust some things. This is great!

Like game manufacturers, they seem to think taking things out that are worthwhile is better.

Right click on the desktop and pick "view". Uncheck both "align icons to grid" and "auto arrange icons". Also, check "large icons". (Icons were made from png's and IcoFX).

I believe this is it: http://www.mvpmods.com/files/file/164-df-compression-utility/

Got sick of all of the desktop icons, so grouped them and made large 256 x 256 icons for these desktop folder categories. Much cleaner. (2 different themes)

Understandable. It just sounded like you were making it definite that it was a Win10/illegal copy problem and that was the only reason.

Yes, but is that definite? I know guys were having trouble with TW 08 golf and definitely not using illegal copies. Let's not forget about M$ and early release bugs.

I think the schedule updater already addresses #2. There are a couple of schedules out there that have 29 and 50 game schedules for #3.

Ya, per page....not entirety.

Seems like the individual threads are too long. Maybe limit it to 15 or so comments per page. Sounds nitpicky I know. But when guys continually quote 3 pictures in a row, just to say "nice", it lengthens the thread way too long.
