  1. Yeah I do but the creators of that mod asked people to report any problems that they found in that thread. That's why two patches were made for this mod. Isn't that something??
  2. Updated to 2-24 ...The Florida python hunt wound down the other week and 68 of them were caught and killed by hunters in the month long challenge sponsored by the state. Fish and Wildlife officials said the main aim here was to heightening public awareness of these snakes and the problems that they have caused. I don't know about you but if I lived down there this would have been completely unnecessary because as soon as I found out that there was a snake problem like this I would have left the state so fast my shadow would be running to keep up with me. ...As I write this the thermometer outside says 25 degrees and my first reaction is to feel sorry for myself that I have to live in an area that gets this kind of weather. But lately I haven't because I've been thinking more and more about how it is in Florida. They say there may be as many as 100,000 of those snakes living down there and that doesn't even take into account how many alligators they have there, which they estimate to be around 1.3 million. So, no thanks, I'll stay right here. If I'm cold I'll go out and buy a warmer coat and a better pair of gloves. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't know. ...My sympathies go out to the family of Mindy McCready and her children. I understand she had to be a very troubled woman to do what she did but my sympathy and understanding does not extend to the point as to why she felt she had to kill her dog. ...Detroit is a city that is literally on its last legs and those legs are extremely shaky right now. Their unemployment rate is 18 percent which is more than twice the rate for the country as a whole and their murder rate is around 10 times the national average. This is why residents are leaving this city in record numbers and not looking back. The best selling item in Detroit right now is a one way bus ticket to anywhere. From a city that once boasted 1.8 million people as residents there are only 700,000 left now and 650,000 of them are convicted felons. ...Think about that the next time the cameras pan the stands during a Tiger game. ...There's a pizza shop owner down in Virginia Beach, Virginia that has started a promotion that's become very popular for him. Seems he's a big supporter for firearm rights and he is giving a 15 percent discount to anyone who brings a gun or concealed handgun permit into his place of business. Since the discount began 80 percent of his customers have come in with guns. Too bad for this guy that Michigan is so far away from Virginia because he could have made a killing if he had people from Detroit come there to place an order. ...Well this is interesting. Next year the Post Office is planning on releasing their own line of all-weather, all-season clothing apparel that includes headwear, footwear, coats and shirts and a jacket with iPod controls built into the sleeve. I'm kind of curious about this to see what this will look like. Hopefully this new line of clothing will not look too much like the real postal uniforms because none of us would want to be wearing this stuff and then be chased by a bunch of angry dogs. ...A Glens Falls, New York woman was arrested on five counts of endangering the welfare of a child because she hired two strippers to perform at her son's 16th birthday party. The mother invited several of her son's friends, both boys and girls but did not tell the parents of any of these kids that strippers were invited. Well, she won't be mother of the year after this but you got to admit she knows how to throw a party. ...Would anyone want to wager a bet that the people who complained about this were the girls? ...Poor Miley Cyrus. Someone's picking on her again. A photo of her smoking marijuana has surfaced and she is doing her best to convince everyone that it wasn't her and although she may be telling the truth here this train wreck would do anything for attention. If she didn't have her picture taken doing this she'd do something else. Personally I'm not buying it because any girl that gets a haircut like that has to be stoned. ...Folks down in Chile have a custom called the "War of the Tomato" where once a year they get together and throw tomatoes at each other for fun. This year over 7,000 people showed up and they pelted each other with over 44 tons of tomatoes. How perfect would this be if next year Alex Rodriguez finds himself right in the middle of all those flying tomatoes? ...It's official now. Sony's announced the new PS4 which will be released this upcoming holiday season. There's no word on the price yet and that right there should raise a red flag. When a company does not announce the cost of a new product that only means the price of it is going to be more expensive than anyone could have imagined. The new system will have improved graphical performance as well as being heavily dependent on social networking. Nothing's been confirmed by Sony as to if you can play your PS3 game collection on this and I have a feeling that if the PS4 is not backwards compatible a lot of PS3 owners won't be taking the plunge to buy this once it comes out this Christmas. ...A twenty-eight year old New York woman has become the first woman in history to register for an NFL regional scouting combine when she competes against college kickers in New Jersey and if she makes an impression there she can advance to Dallas in April on a super-regional combine. This is just great. Just because people saw Tim Tebow play football everyone now thinks they can do it. I don't know if she fully understands the job of a kicker because those guys can get leveled out there just like anyone else. I want to see what she does when some linebacker comes rushing in at her as he's trying to block a kick and lands right on her. Or during a kickoff when she's the last person that the kick returner has to get past on his way to the end zone? If there is one sport that women do not belong on the same field with men is it's football and it has nothing to do with discrimination. It has everything to do with safety because she'd get hurt pretty bad out there and that's something that nobody wants. ...How much you want to bet that after the NFL sends her home she gets a call to play in the Lingerie League? ...A little girl in a wheelchair traveling with her family to Disneyworld proved to be no match for the people at the TSA in St. Louis when the screening process rolled around. The TSA has a long reputation for pushing around and intimidating the elderly and frightening children and it's even worse for these people if they happen to be handicapped. Then it's like something snaps in these people and they don't stop until these poor travelers are completely humiliated, terrified or driven to tears. While they do have a right to check a wheelchair they also patted down the child until she began to cry and they refused to let her mother record what they were doing. The final insult came when the agents refused to return the little girl's stuffed animal, even though it had already been scanned. Keep in mind that these people make about $15 an hour and not one of them has ever caught a single terrorist but this one official did the next best thing by keeping a little girl's stuffed animal away from her. ...A Michigan hospital is being sued by one of its black nurses because they would not let her treat a newborn baby that was in the neonatal unit last fall. The hospital was only following the instructions of the family because the father of the baby requested that no black nurses were authorized to look after the infant. While it is easy to understand her frustration in the matter the hospital was really doing her a favor by keeping her away from this family and their beliefs. The hospital was in a no-win situation here because had they told the guy to stuff it -as they must have felt like saying- and assigned anyone to watch over the baby, they would have been sued by the father. They should tell him the next time he has a kid to try another hospital. ...I'm someone that can speak expertly about nurses because I have had more stays in hospitals than I care to look back and count. But believe me, it did not matter if the nurse I had was white or black or Spanish or Asian. Every single one of them took great care of me. Those women were wonderful and they made my stays as comfortable as they could every time I was there. ...For any of you who had Phil Hughes picked as the first guy to get hurt in the Yankee camp you are a winner.He has a bulging disc in his upper back which the Yankees say will sideline him for two weeks but knowing Hughes he'll milk this injury all the way to Labor Day. ...A.J. Burnett is going to be the starting pitcher for the Pirates on Opening Day against the Cubs in Pittsburgh. And yet people still act surprised when they find out the Pirates haven't had a winning record in twenty years. ...Red Sox fans with deep pockets can bid on the bloody sock worn by Curt Schilling during the 2004 World Series. Online bidding opened a few weeks back and right now it is up to $60,000. For that amount of money they should throw in the rest of the uniform too. ...Got my taxes done yesterday. Once again Uncle Sam let me know in their own special way that they haven't forgotten me. :sad:
  3. You don't search much do you? There's already a thread right here to report any mistakes that are found in the mod.
  4. I use the internet for this kind of information now because those baseball books and magazines get more expensive every year.
  5. There you go! Another one. And one more thing about the uniforms. I would not expect the same uniform choices for 2013 that you had in the 2012 mod. This is just a hunch on my part.
  6. Yeah? What about updated portraits like Josh Hamilton with the Angels for instance? And new cyberfaces? The stadiums get updated too. There's a lot more that goes into this then you realize.
  7. Thank you Dennis!
  8. The lefty hitting bug was an issue from Mvp 2004.
  9. Well, these online translator sites are not 100% perfect but I got what this guy is trying to say. He's mad that he can't get this program and instead of going back and forth with this guy I will just drop it right here because I can care less if he gets this or not. Language barrier or not these new people to this site have one thing down pat and that's demanding stuff and when you tell them they can't get it for one reason or another they get mad at you. And God forbid they do a search! Anyways, here's the not-so-good translation from translate.reference.com: Forget it, talk to you is like talking to a wall, you will want to find the 5 legs of the jack to all, then look no further than with the topic, only enough with that except a reply my question and because of the because you can't download the file, your bad mood is for more, if you want to read i hope that you've used google
  10. Well ok, but no matter how you look at it there is still nothing you can do about it. So what if you had this mod and then lost it when you reformatted your PC? Like it has been explained before in here to you directly I might add, tywiggins' mods are not hosted on this site. Therefore you can not get any of his mods. This should answer every question that you can come up with from here on out.
  11. Thank you Dennis! You know it kind of occurred to me that the "Submit Review" option is not needed for anything that Dennis James uploads to this site. When you see his name on a mod you know it's going to be great so just go and give him five stars and move on. :)
  12. Thank you Dennis!
  13. Thank you Dennis!
  14. Thank you Dennis!
  15. Thank you Dennis!
  16. Thank you kindly Dennis!
  17. Thank you Dennis. By the way, is there a subtle difference between the home and road versions ?
  18. Thank you Dennis!
  19. Become a contributor.
  20. Yeah, you got a lot of downloading to do. Back up your files before you install a mod and always read the directions.
  21. I don't understand why you want to do this but the easiest way is to copy the stadiums and uniforms from the Mvp 12 mod to a newly installed copy of Mvp 05. Therefore you will over write all the default uniforms and stadiums and still have the same roster that originally came with the CD.
  22. Updated to 2-17 ...Ok, we got Valentine's Day out of the way (don't get me started on that) and now this week we'll see the first real signs of spring as the players report to their respective camps and before we know it we'll be reading about the next Yankee pitcher who's going to have Tommy John surgery. ...About a year and a half ago a crocodile weighing one ton was caught in the Philippines and since then was being held in captivity and it eventually became a tourist attraction for the town. Last week it died and the entire town is in mourning because of it even though this crocodile was blamed for the deaths of several villagers over the years including the death of a child in 2009. You know something has to be wrong with these people if they're mourning something that ate some of their friends or family. The reptile was declared dead after being found floating on its back with a bloated stomach.Hopefully someone did a head count of all the people that lived there just to be sure no one was missing. ...You know what this kind of reminds me of? Remember in the movie King Kong when Kong was taken off the island and the villagers didn't know what to do after he was gone? Same thing here. ...It takes a lot of nerve, and then some Dept: Back in the early morning hours of New Year's Day a Washington, D.C. family noticed that their father was having trouble breathing and naturally being concerned, called for an ambulance. Help did not come until more than thirty minutes after the call and when it finally arrived at the scene the man had already died. The reason why it took so long for it to respond is on that night the D.C. ambulances were staffed at a low level because more than fifty district firefighters called in sick on what appeared to be a coordinated sick-out that night. Whatever the reasons were there's no overlooking that they were late and it cost someone's life. To add to the insult, weeks later this same family received a bill in the mail for $780 for an ambulance that arrived too late to do any bit of good. There is something seriously wrong with this picture. Even Dominos has a better policy. ...Last week Sarah Silverman's sister was arrested in Jerusalem with some other women because while they were praying they were wearing religious clothes that Orthodox Judaism reserves strictly for men. If Silverman's sister has half the foul mouth that her more famous sibling has she'll have no trouble leaving the country after this because Isreal will only be too happy to escort her to the airport just to get rid of her. ...The NFL is looking into widening the field sideline-to-sideline from 160 feet to 195 feet. These are the same dimensions that the Canadian Football League has because the belief is that a wider field would be safer because the league now has bigger and faster players then it did years ago. At least that's the reason behind it. My question immediately is how is this going to be safer? No matter where the sideline is someone is still going to get drilled there whether it is moved or not. ...Apple's hard at work on a hush-hush project that is a wristwatch-like device made out of curved glass that would operate on Apple's iOS platform. If this ever comes to pass you have to admit that no matter how you feel about this company you got to admit they are not stupid. Try to imagine how much they'll charge for this. $1,000? Maybe more? And don't forget the insurance you'll probably buy too because try to imagine yourself walking around with a piece of curved glass on your wrist and not worry about walking into something or falling down on it. ...For those of you who wanted to buy the new Atlanta Braves hat with the screaming Indian logo on it you can save your money because the Braves decided to scrap those plans due to people complaining about it being "racial" and you know when someone starts mentioning that word companies start backtracking faster than a tap dancer. ...When you hear about people moaning about Sports Illustrated magazine using minorities as "props" in photos for this year's Swimsuit issue it makes you wonder where their head is at because no one actually looks at a group of kids standing behind a model for example or someone on a bike or anything but the girl herself. The complaint is that the magazine is promoting racial stereotypes by using minorities as extras in the locales of the photo shoots. Never mind that the same people would point out in a heartbeat had S.I. brought along some Hollywood models to be in the background. Then they'd complain that the locals were not used and the reason for that would be racial. These photos are all about seeing some gorgeous girl wearing a hot looking bikini. End of story. Why everything these days has to be twisted and turned into a racial issue is really getting out of hand. ...Josh Hamilton reported to the Angels training camp almost twenty pounds lighter than he was a year ago. Hamilton credits his weight loss to God because he said that every night for over a month God woke him up out of a sound sleep and as he watched TV he watch a doctor talk about nutrition and how it makes you body feel and the right things to put in your body. Hamilton then took this as a sign to be more attentive to what he ate and in turn credited the Good Lord for waking him at night so he could do this. The real truth however is a lot less newsworthy. Hamilton's family had just purchased a new puppy and the dog kept on waking him up in the middle of the night to go outside and Hamilton couldn't get back to sleep after the dog was done. ...My first reaction when I read that a Red Sox trainer injected players with a pain killer for six seasons was great, let them go through some *&#^ for awhile! But then when I read further that Curt Schilling was among the whistle blowers I knew this was going to go nowhere. That guy would turn his own mother in on trumped up charges just as long as the cameras were on him. ...When Lady Gaga announced that she had to cancel some of her upcoming tour dates because she was hiding a show injury most of her critics rightly assumed she was talking about her singing voice, or lack of one. What really happened was that she is suffering from synovitis, which is a severe inflammation of the joints. She either got this from wearing two-foot heels all the time or falling on her nose. ...If they ever decided to do a remake of Mr.Ed she would be perfect for playing the lead. ...Every time the NRA comes out with another ad it makes me hate them even more. ...You ever notice when you have a pizza or something delivered to your house they always end up screwing something up with the order but if you go and pick it up from the same place you get everything that you asked for? ...On Saturday nights I watch a show called My Big Redneck Vacation because in my spare time I secretly enjoy laughing at rednecks. Sue me. These people go through so much Bud Light in one day that Budweiser should start making special deliveries right to their homes. Beer is their life. They also happen to be very hard to understand which is the reason that subtitles are displayed on the bottom of the screen. Not so much the women but the men talk like they have tobacco stuck in their mouth and when they try to speak all you get is grunting and mumbling with an actual word mixed in here and there to really throw you off. Besides knocking off all that beer the other thing that these people do just as well is eat. They were in Washington D.C. last week and some of them went to a burger joint so they could try their hand at a burger challenge that was there. To give you an idea what the size of this burger was I found a website where a fan at a Washington Wizards basketball game had three quarters to eat this thing. That is a burger and not a spare tire. The rednecks by the way ended up having the same result as this basketball fan did when faced with the burger as they both went down without putting up much of a fight. ...I have never been able to understand the attraction to these food challenges because eating that much at one time can not be good for your stomach let alone the rest of your body. Just last week a regular patron of Las Vegas' Heart Attack Grill died of -wait for it- a heart attack after a meal outside the restaurant while waiting for a bus. Their specialty is something called the "Quadruple Bypass Burger" that has 9,982 calories in it, which is enough to feed a family of four or enough for Prince Fielder to have on coast-to-coast flight. ...One of the gimmicks for this Heart Attack Grill is that if you are 350 pounds or over you get to eat free there. If these people ever put up one of these places near any Walmart in the country they'd be out of business in a week. ...Here I am feeling guilty when I have a Big Mac from McDonalds because I know it has nine ounces of fat in it. ...In what under cover drug agents say was one of the oddest places to find one, a mini meth lab was found in a porta-potty in the middle of an Oklahoma golf course. Maybe it was just their way of speeding up play by giving the golfers a jump start. ...Kate Gosselin has found another way to get back into the spotlight when she will be appearing on Celebrity Wife Swap with Kendra Wilkinson. This woman will do just about anything not to take care of her kids. ...LeAnn Rimes is suing her dentist because she is saying that his poor dental work is the reason her career has stalled. She states that his negligent treatment she received for a faulty crown placement caused her a lot of discomfort and therefore affected her ability to perform. Right. Because it's the dentist's fault that she hasn't had a hit in thirteen years.
  23. Too bad Alex Rodriguez wasn't there.
  24. Homer that thread is right here.
