  1. Well, I think you bring up a prime example. From what I've seen on RotoWorld (http://www.rotoworld.com/teams/injuries/mlb/all/) the only guy I would send to FA or Single A is Avisail Garcia, who seems to be out for the year. The others are due back within enough of a time frame to merit staying on the MLB team, if that's where they were slated (i.e., you can't lose your job to an injury). It's impossible for a roster maker to have "living rosters" in this game and a lot of guys would like the game itself to decide who gets injured. The only problem with sending a season-ending injury player to a minor league affiliate is that the game itself will move him up to the MLB squad eventually, unless you significantly reduce his attributes.
  2. As I said in the support thread, most of the MLB teams do not have full rotations that include the bullpen. Typically what I would do is send players who are injured for the entire year or for a large portion of the year either to free agency or to a minor league team. Otherwise, relief pitchers who were only scheduled to be out for a short while were included in their MLB team's bullpen and assigned accordingly.
  3. Oh I see.... I guess that's the inherant problem with this in that certain faces aren't included because (and I agree) that some faces were not up to snuff. Then I guess we should note these as we find them and either decide to insert the faces ourselves or change them back to a generic. Thanks.
  4. Not sure if Zack Cozart (Reds) is correct. Official ID is 615 and my roster shows it is using that number, but his face is showing up as a Black guy.
  5. I'll tell you guys another thing. AVAST is not liking the TiT program. Saying there is a Win32:Dropper-gen virus in the .exe file. I did see where one of Kraw's previous releases caused a similar warning, but that it is a false positive and other AV programs may not see it as such.
  6. Needs some work, but doing good.
  7. Thank you. I still think you need to work on labeling these files and zip files a better way. It can be confusing. You also should complete some type of full rotations for MLB teams, including relievers.
  8. If you're running W7, apparently you need to have your main folder on your desktop, not in program files.

    All the more reason why you'd have to make two players. But you really can't utilize him as he might play in the game with his special glove and the ability to make one shift during an AB. He's an anomoly. Pretty amazing ability though.

    The game is not programmed for switch pitching.... only switch hitting. You'd have to make 2 separate players. Plus, does he throw the same pitches ambidextriously? (I'd give my left arm to be ambidextriuos!!)
  11. The formulas I used are in the hands of Yankee4Life right now as I stepped away from roster making for now and the foreseeable future. I'm not going to speak to everything that you brought up but I will explain why Puig's ratings were so high as compared to Cabrera. Puig's numbers reflected his lightening in a bottle season. Since subsequent years would probably result in his numbers reducing, there wouldn't be much concern there. Cabrera, like any vets, is a reflection of the most current year balanced with a range or previous years (I think it was 3 consecutive previous years). And it's difficult to emulate someone's strike out numbers considering that any human player could be controlling any particular team. Yes, there are attributes for swinging percentages, but it's impossible to figure what that would mean in relation to what pitches they would go after, then factoring in the game slider as well. So you see it becomes quite convoluted. I can't imagine (and maybe don't want to think about it in hindsight) the number of hours this took in total. But, I think I'm the only roster maker who came along and eventually worked out formulas of sorts for contact, power, pitch control, fielding attributes, catcher throw out attributes, bunting ability and pitcher's batting abilities. Additionally, I threw in the idea of RPs and LRPs having their own sets of stamina. I also worked in end of '13 hot/cold zones, but for some reason, the most current roster makers never used those to build off.... go figure. Like Y4L said, you're welcome to grab the roster and move it forward if you'd like.
  12. Thank you very much for your dedication.
  13. Hey YY, Attached below is an update (.mbe file) to you showing the above things. If you want to use it, that is your decision. I did not do much in the way of other call-ups and send downs, other than for the Dodgers catcher position. I hope this helps. 2014 04-30-14 B.rar
  14. On second thought for Cincinnati, bring up Mesoraco as the 2nd catcher, maybe platoons with Pena. 13 pitchers is doable. Leave Santiago down.
  15. Don't overwrite rosters. Take the zip file into the database subfolder, delete the existing 19 .dat files and then unzip these in there.
  16. Looking better. Here's some adjustment suggestions: CIN: too many pitchers with 14. With all the injuries, it is difficult to tell you what adjustments as I'm not sure who you're keeping based on injuries. But you should have 13 fielders. It's hard to send guys down, but I'd go with who has had the most playing time. You do need a backup catcher (Tucker Barnhart) and Ramon Santiago. BOS: Badenhop should come up to middle relief; send Nava down TOR: Turn Rogers into a MRP (stamina about 24); move Todd Redmond from the FA to LRP; bring Happ up and make MRP (stamina about 27); send Tuiasosopo, Goins and Izturis down; Getz to 2B Also, you want to name your rosters according to date or number order them somehow.
  17. Homer....this is a great asset to the community. Question though: since there were some modders who did not follow the official ID list, does this collection have those given cyberface files changed to match the official list?

    Joystick?

    In my documents, mvp2005 or mvp08 folder...whatever you have in there. Open .cfg file with wordpad or textpad.

    Joystick?

    If you can't help define things in the the controller.cfg file (my documents/mvp2005), a workaround might be using the keyboard option in the game and the joytokey program/app where you can define the keyboard keys to any particular button on your Sidewinder.

    Mvp 14 Crashes

    Wait... I thought I was on the R.B.I. site. Never mind.

    Mvp 14 Crashes

    That's not helping me Homer.... I'm only on the 3rd green when this happens! I don't even think YOU own the game!

    Mvp 14 Crashes

    Mine was crashing too.... every time I went to shoot the puck into the net, the game would crash to the desktop. Please advise.
  23. I assume you meant "like I do." Care to list what those are in another thread, unless you already have. I don't want to hijack this thread. This game has always intrigued me and from what I've heard about some global attribute tweaking (anticipation, I think) and a few other things, it can play a good game of baseball.
