  1. How do you know what file joegreen was trying to get? Let me know what one it is. If it is a Mvp file chances are I got it on disc.
  2. He just stated an observation which by the way was 100% correct and I even wonder why you did it too.
  3. I wonder if the original poster meant to post this in the Mvp 2004 area?
  4. I have no doubt it will. I'm patient. There are so many season mods here to pass the time with that it makes it easy to wait for this much-anticipated mod. There's going to be so much detail in this that we won't be able to put it down. Good luck.
  5. There is a MVP 12 support thread. There is a good chance your problem has already been touched upon in there.
  6. This has proven to be the most difficult mod to be made here on this website. Why? Because this mod was first worked on back in 2009 by a group of modders who are no longer here. The guys that are working on it now are different though. Bctrackboi and rroy have mostly been working behind the scenes with this mod and just have been giving occasional updates. I have more faith in them then the original group who took this on.
  7. I am sure you are not the only one who uses this utility. Maybe this time someone will notice your question so they can answer it. Good luck.
  8. I don't know about any of you but for me step #6 would be throwing in the towel after reading the first five set of instructions.
    Thank you Dennis. This just shows how dedicated you are to having 100% accuracy in these mods. Can't ask for anything more! Fifteen stars.
  9. Download this utility set that I put together. There is a file there called the Ditty Importer that lets you customize your jukebox in the game.
  10. I agree. 99.9% of my games are at the major league level. I don't think it is important to have a cyberface for some kid who just got drafted last year.
  11. Just a few days ago Jim825 and Dennis James71 uploaded the latest contribution to the Total Classics series with the release of Total Classics 1976. Like all the other collaborations that these two have worked on in the past this mod has it all. Terrific gameplay, accurate and good-looking uniforms and stadiums, a meticulous and detailed roster for the '76 season plus sounds and imagery from that season. The installation of this mod is quick and simple and easy to follow. All you need is a clean, unmodded copy of Mvp '05 and you are all set. The install procedure will have you ready to go in just a few minutes. Back in November of 2014 Jim and Dennis finalized the finishing touches of the 1977 mod and uploaded it to the site. When I did my write-up for that mod I made a note to mention that the images that were included in that mod had to be a difficult task to accomplish because of the picture quality. See for yourself by googling a ballplayer that played during this time. You won't get the nice looking hi resolution photos you see today. Although you can not tell from looking at the images in this mod, they had the same problem here that they had in the 1977 mod. Whatever photos they grabbed I guarantee you that they had to do some major touching up on them to make them look presentable. Listening to the soundtrack of this mod brought back memories of my sister who spent that entire summer of 1976 in our backyard with a radio by our pool. Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, Paul McCartney and Wings and the Electric Light Orchestra are just a few of the artists you'll hear when you start up the '76 mod. And the music played between pitches during a break in the action is well chosen and always seems to fit the tempo of the game. If you pay attention close you will hear a few seconds of the Imperial March from Star Wars and the five-note sequence from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Even though these two movies did not come out until one year later. This is what is called artistic license. Gameplay is enhanced with the addition of the Legends of the Booth mod that features the voices of Vin Scully, Ernie Harwell and Mel Allen. The exhibition game that I chose for this write-up was Minnesota at the Yankees but before I played this game I checked out the other uniforms and stadiums from the American and National Leagues and I have to say that Dennis James once again did a magnificent job. His work is state-of-the-art and we are lucky to have him. In the game I played the Yankees took a 5 - 0 lead off of Dave Goltz but the Twins came back with a four-run eighth off of a tiring Kenny Holtzman. Sparky Lyle came on in the ninth inning to retire the Twins to preserve a 5 - 4 win but not without a scare. Dan Ford hit a one-out double and advanced to third on a sacrifice fly but Lyle got pinch-hitter Steve Brye to ground out to end the game. 1976. A great year for Total Classics. Another wonderful job by Dennis and Jim. Thank you so much. Screenshots from the 1976 mod. Welcome to the 1976 Total Classics mod! A close one here in the Bronx. Minnesota's Rod Carew. He was a magician with the bat. Ken Holtzman stares down Lyman Bostock here in the 5th inning. Holtzman struck out five and went eight innings for the victory.
  12. Can we please say thank you to the modders who created this? It won't hurt and it will only take you a couple of seconds.
    Five stars or make it ten stars or even more. I am downloading this mod right now and I already love it. That's how much faith I have in the talents of Jim and Dennis James and I want to thank both of them very much for this exciting mod which I will be playing a lot during the coming months. The only problem with these classic mods are that there are so many good ones and then finding the time to play each one of them. It's a nice problem to have and so far I have been able to meet the challenge. I welcome this mod with open arms. Thank you Jim and Dennis once again. It was a special year for me.
  13. Yeah, he threw me off too. The problem he just mentioned had nothing to do with the game freezing since that was his first complaint with the mod.
  14. That's fine. You must have just missed that thread because you posted your question in the same area that this support thread is located. The problem you are having is something I haven't heard before with this mod. Hopefully someone will see this who has had the same problem before and they can tell you what to do to fix it. Provide more information here first. What teams were you using? What stadium were you playing in?
  15. There is already a thread to report problems with the Mvp 15 mod so there was no reason to create another one. You are not being specific at all. What kind of performance issues are you having? Where is the game crashing. There is an update for the mod and it's in the download section.
  16. These new people don't read the rules. And like you said, it's a pirated version that you actually have to pay for to get. Yeah, you can download it for free but the download time is purposely slow. You'll be able to finish War and Peace before your download is finished.
  17. Thank you Jim. And I just want to say that there was nothing sarcastic about my answer to one of our newest members. The guy said he was unsure of what mods he needed to upgrade his copy of Mvp '05. Since we both have been here for a very long time you know as well as I do that this is a question that is very hard to answer because of our wide variety of mods here. He didn't say if he was a fan of the modern game because if he did I would have told him to try out Mvp 15 and then get the latest rosters for that. Or if he was more of a fan of baseball's past. I would have told him to look at Total Classics Phase 10 and the other season mods. Either way I would have just ended up giving him too much information about what mods to get. "Get this one vieextreme and then this one and this one and this one, etc" It would have been too much. I have given the same answer to people over the years that I gave to him. Go to the download section and see for yourself. There's so much there. Even people who have been here awhile should spend some quality time there because some of the mods that are buried there in the back pages are hidden gems.
  18. I'd love to see the finished product for this mod. You guys have been doing a great job.
  19. We have a download section here. It's called Downloads. Go there and go to the Mvp 2005 area. There are literally hundreds of mods to choose from. Download and read the directions that come with the mod.
