Thank you VDhits, I appreciate it. It was fun for me to make this thread to show everyone, especially the newer users here, some of the season mods that we have here for them to try out. The modders that made these for everyone are simply the best.

Why are you asking this in this thread? This has nothing to do with the 09 uniforms. Nothing at all. You have already ruined this thread by you coming in here and complaining to one of the modders about releasing stuff that you tell him to and now you got to bring this question in here? This thread is about showing off the different total conversion mods we have here, not for questions like yours. Get out of here with this nonsense. In fact, since it is a TiT question, go over to Eamods and annoy them with this.

Wait until the Mvp 09 season mod is out. That will take care of everything.

Updated to 4-26 ...I know it isn't morning, but I was out of town for the weekend and had no chance to update this thread this morning let alone be on the Internet. When I go out of town to the in-laws it's like going back in time. I won't go into much more detail than that about how much I hate it down there. ...If there were awards for such things as "Most Uncomfortable Beds", the beds at my in-laws house would win every single time. ...My little baby daschund had an upset stomach last night and got sick five times. I think it's because the little basta** five year old down there gave her something to eat when I wasn't looking. She's fine now because I got her home now with me, safe and happy where I can spoil her the right way. ...Maybe it was a good thing I wasn't able to get on a computer after the way the Friday and Saturday games ended up for the Yankees. I might have said something out of frustration that someone would have taken offense to and just like that, there would be another problem. ...The Yankees are right on time again with all the injuries that they have been getting, haven't they? ...Is it an unwritten rule that all Yankee-Red Sox games be over four hours? ...15 runs scored against them. 22 runs. Now 16 runs. When are these guys going to get mad and say enough is enough? ...Just today, ten minutes or so ago, I found out what happened to Brian Bruney. News coverage down in that horsebleep town isn't that good either. ...There was one good thing that came out of my weekend down there besides leaving to go home. I went to a Barnes and Noble bookstore and I found a book called Crazy 08: How a cast of cranks, rogues, boneheads and magnates created the greatest year in baseball history. It was on sale for $5.98 (original sale price $24.95) and so far it is a great read. A woman (no kidding) named Cait Murphy wrote this and she has done a remarkable job. ...It bears repeating because it's so true. It is my wish that that pig Hazel Mae is fired from MLB.com. She knows nothing about the game except what she is told to ask from the cue cards.

:D

You just don't listen do you? You just don't listen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They have to mod what you say to mod? Since when? If you want to make a request then you do that. Put it in the right area of the forum and ask for it only once. Request anything you want. If it is possible to make it, someone will. If not, then that's it. I am really at my wit's end with you. It's like you can't understand anything.

Whatever year this is, I'll still download it. These guys have me hooked on Total Classics.

No it isn't. We don't need the information in advance. It's people like you that make them announce nothing. Not only you, but you are part of it. How many times have you asked when the 09 mod is coming out? How many times do you bump threads on this site and over at Eamods with the same questions? How many times do you ask for the new Yankee Stadium to be made? That's why nothing is announced. That means they can work on this at their own pace and not be pestered with questions. Also, look at how many mods we already have. Go grab a season mod today and pass the time with that and before you know it, a new mod will be released.

Well, I guessed it. :(

There is a very good reason why. If they tell you that they are working on a new season mod, some people will constantly ask them for updates and a release date. This way, with nothing announced, they can work on the mod and not have to be bothered with those questions. It works out great for them. :)

And if anyone wants the Bloom mod, the download page is right here.

Updated to 4-19 ...I still have not calmed down from yesterday's embarrassment at Yankee Stadium. ...Cleveland so far has scored 37 runs in three games. They love Yankee Stadium, and are especially fond of Chein-Ming Wang, who so far can't get anyone out. Unless you happen to be in the bullpen before the game. Then he'll strike you out. ...Good to see Josh Beckett getting what he deserved. ...Not a good week for baseball. Harry Kalas and Mark Fidrych passing away on the same day. Both beloved and respected for what they brought to this great game. Just seems like yesterday that Fidrych had his memorable '76 season. ...Jackie Robinson day in baseball was too far over the top. Not to say he shouldn't have been honored, but come the beginning of July when Larry Doby marks his 50th anniversary, not a damn thing's going to be said by Bud and his staff. ...I hate these ballplayers that point to the sky after they've done something. Vladimir Guerrero is famous for this. He'll point to the sky when he gets a walk. ...I've always wondered something about Hideki Matsui. When he does interviews he has a interpreter with him to answer the questions. But many times I have seen him in the outfield talking to one of his teammates and he doesn't have the interpreter there. How does he understand them but not the reporters? ...I can't stand it when you are at the point of complete exhaustion that you are not even able to sleep. ...I got a funny way of eating onion rings that my wife thinks is nuts. I eat the outside only and won't eat the onion. ...I may not like Ben Stiller, but I still can't wait for the sequel to Night at the Museum next month.

Fantastic job. I love the option of taking a look at your finished schedule on a spreadsheet. All dynasty owners should grab this. It's another one of Dylan's must-have utilities for you!

Nice to see you around here abc006. Welcome back.

Updated to 4-12 ...Happy Easter everyone. Or, if you don't celebrate Easter, have a happy Sunday. ...We've been one week into the baseball season now and already it looks like it's going to be an interesting year. I am just happy that it's back. ...The good? Watching rookies like Atlanta's Jordan Schafer play and the Yankees Brett Gardner. Schafer has been impressive ever since he homered in his first at-bat last Sunday. ...The bad? The shocking news of Angel pitcher Nick Adenhart and the two other passengers in that car after the game against Oakland last week. From what I read, the Angels lost a great prospect but more importantly, a mother and father lost a son. ...The Yankees? Already I see a difference from last year. I like the centerfielder (Gardner) and new first baseman (Teixeira) and the additions to the pitching staff. Also, I'm glad Posada's back. Even Cano is looking good. ...One week into the season and Alfonso Soriano continues to hide behind one statistic and that's how many homeruns he hits for the Cubs. Sure, he's got three so far but if you watch this guy play the field, he's going to let in many more runs than he drives in. When I think of overrated rich ballplayers, I think of him. ...I don't know about you, but these new GEICO commercials with the two glass eyes on top of a wad of money really suck. GEICO never had great commercials to begin with, but these are a new low. ...I really miss a company called Access Software. Those were the people that originally made the Links golf game and the Tex Murphy adventure games (google Tex Murphy and you'll see that Access made five games featuring this character. They were good selling games over ten years ago.) Access was acquired by selfish Microsoft and that was the end of a very good company. ...It's been a few weeks now but I am still steamed about the DRM nonsense that Apple has on their downloads. If I didn't have to have iTunes on my system to use my iPod, I'd get rid of it. I use iTunes for nothing else. ...Season six of Hawaii Five-O is to be released on April 21. I'm sure that's interesting news to no one else but me in here. :lol:

Well, of course. You're in trouble if you start seeing things the way I do.

Updated to 4-5 ...It's opening day! Two games on the schedule today with the Dodgers at the Giants and tonight Atlanta visits the Champion Phillies starting at 8 pm on ESPN. Bad news- John Miller and Joe Morgan will be there and Joe will be sure to tell stories about his time with the Phils in the early 80's. ...That Morgan comment I just made really made me miss that website "Fire Joe Morgan." That was one of the funniest sites I've ever visited. I just loved when they made fun of Morgan because he always used the word consistent to describe just about everything. ...Tomorrow the rest of the openers start including the one that matters in Baltimore where the Yankees open up their season. Let's hope they get off to a good start. ...Having a sneak glimpse at the new Yankee ballpark left me very impressed. This is one beautiful Stadium and it's going to be a great place to watch a ball game. ...Even those people who live in that particular region in a certain part of the country who root for a certain team will certainly admit (certainly not out loud) that this is a beautiful ballpark. I'm certain of that. ...I got a big kick out of the Red Sox President/stuffed shirt/blowhard Larry Lucchino whining that they were worried that the Yankees were going to make a lot more money now that they have a new ballpark and the additional revenue that would bring in. He conveniently forgets to mention that the Red Sox, had they gone ahead and built a new ballpark like they were going to in the 1990's, would have already had a newer park way before the Yankees got theirs. But they never did this because they caved in to public crying and panic and decided to remain in Fenway Park. It's their fault. ...The result of such a decision? Renovations on the existing place. That's why the Monster Seats were put in above the Wall in left field for example and why additional work was done or is being planned. So if any whining about a new place for the Yankees is heard from by this team or their fans you can point out to them that they had their chance for their own park. You can re-paint a garbage can and make it look really nice but in the end it's still going to be a garbage can. ...Can't ignore Citi Field either. That one looks wonderful too and I hope Mets fans enjoy it. ...I don't make predictions. I'm too busy watching the Yankees to care what other teams do. I just want them to win. It's been a long time. ...For those complaining about a salary cap, like the guy two posts above me, what the hell for? I'm quite sure if this were your team you would not be crying about it. Now go away and go play 2k9.

Not really. That guy was a head case when he was playing. You got a good deal. Look at what Golf Galaxy is selling them for.

Updated to 3-29 ...Just watched my first movie on blu-ray last night. I could not believe the detail. There were some scenes where I was too busy looking around to watch what was going on. Im-press-ive! ...Can it be that Opening Day is a week away? Or I should say Opening Night, since there's no such thing as tradition anymore. ...Baseball in my opinion should start each year in Cincinnati with a day game. ...Maybe if Bud gets a little kickback, next year this can happen. ...I had a lot of fun playing those series of games in the Total Conversion thread a few days back. ...Derek Jeter hurt his pinkie in a game and it's big news. If Alex Rodriguez would have done the same thing they'd have said it was his fault and he was clumsy. ...I wonder who gets the center field job for the Yanks? After Melky's snooze job last year, should he get another chance? Glad I'm not deciding this. ...Like Thome said, you can always count on Fuzz popping up this time of year. Truth is, I wish he was here every day like he used to be. ...By the way, great job on your PS3 wallpapers Thome. I plan on saving the Yankee one you are going to make and I haven't even seen it yet. ...Did you ever notice that when you are in a hurry to get somewhere the person ahead of you that you can't get by seems to know this and drives even slower? ...Went to Barnes and Noble yesterday with the intent of using a gift card I got from Christmas. Wrong day to do it. It was packed and there was also a group of kids that were singing songs for some reason. They sang, I left. Maybe I'll just use the gift card online.

2008 continued Brandon Moss homers to right field off of Webb. Skipping past the first baseman for an error. Felipe Lopez is hit by a pitch. The Diamond backs rally. Ryan Doumit hits an opposite field single. Seventh inning stretch in the desert. Working a walk. This fly ball to Eric Byrnes ended the game for Arizona. That's it. I hope you all enjoyed this as much as I did. It was fun looking at all these season mods again. Don't sell Mvp baseball short. It's still a great game.

Finally we come to the very last mod that will be featured in this thread, the 2008 Season and that can be downloaded right here. To install this mod correctly, you will need the latest version of the Total Installer Thingy or TiT for short to install this mod right. Some people have had problems with the smaller pitching meter that was put into this mod and Kraw has provided a fix for it in case you would like to have a bigger pitching meter for the 08 mod. I covered this mod in this thread last and I did this with a purpose. This mod shows how far this group of modders have come since we found out that EA lost their rights to produce another MVP baseball game. Because before there was Mvp Baseball 2008, we had the first season mod produced by the modders in MVP 06: MLB for the PC. That was their answer for the loss of the EA license and it was one of the hottest downloads during that time period. Before Mvp 06 came out, all we were doing back then was updating our original Mvp 05 game with the latest mods. Someone would make a new stadium, we'd put that one in the game and get rid of the bland and dull EA one. Hory would release team portraits like the machine he was and we'd import the new player photos in the game with EAgraph. Before long, each team was updated. When 06 was released, it gave this game a huge facelift and once we played the 06 mod, it left the EA version in the dust. After that, the 2007 season was released and that season can still be downloaded right here. MVP 07:MLB for the PC saw more improvements and updates from the 06 version. New uniforms, stadium and roster updates and more cyberfaces. It was another mod everyone had to have at the same time. It was like having a brand new game and the success of that mod made everyone wonder what was in store for the 2008 version. The 2008 version did not disappoint. It was released much later than originally said, but as Krawhitham told me last year "every time he was going to finish it up, there was something else to add in there." Fine by me. One thing you learn is not to rush modders because they take pride in their work, and the work on these three season mods by the combined efforts of many people in here and on Eamods was sensational. There's going to be an update for this 2008 season mod that will be released when it is ready. There will be updated uniforms and things like that. More information about this update can be found in this thread. The Diamondbacks turn a tough double play against Pittsburgh. Ian Snell of Pittsburgh. He got roughed up by Arizona but hung in there. Brandon Webb catches this in self defense. Close game so far. Justin Upton takes his hacks. This blooper to left field drove in a run. Getting greedy and it cost him. Adam Laroche collected two hits off Webb in this game.

WBC Caribe 2009 continued This bouncer up the middle eluded both middle infielders. Peng of Chinese Taipei legs out a triple. This bloop hit seemed to ignite the Taipei ballclub. This run scored via a groundout extends Taipei's lead. Taipei's bullpen shut down South Africa in the late innings. Throwing out a speedy South African hitter. This pitcher just barely tags the runner out as he tried to drag bunt his way on base. Chinese Taipei walks off with the victory.

Next up, the WBC Caribe 2009 mod which can be downloaded right here. This mod features the sixteen teams that were in the recently completed World Baseball Classic that was won by Japan. So if you want to try your luck playing against the very good Japanese team or lead them to the World Baseball Classic title yourself, this mod is for you. The modders who made Mvp Caribe 08 are the ones who created this mod. The current version for download is version 1.2. You do not need the previous versions of this mod to have this mod work correctly. While this is a Caribe team project, the Latin flavor is not present in this mod as it is in Caribe 08. You do have the opportunity to install the game and have the menus in Spanish, but this option is for the core users over at the Caribe website. The jukebox music chosen by the modders fits in perfectly here and the stadiums made for this mod are outstanding. Try playing a game in the Tokyo Dome and you will see exactly what I mean. Once again, as with the Caribe mod before, the love of the game of baseball is very clear by this talented group of Latino modders. Welcome to the World Baseball Classic mod by team Caribe. Chinese Taipei bunches a few hits together in the early innings for a quick lead. Just beating the throw gives the Taipei team a 1-0 lead. The professionally done look of the WBC mod. South Africa gets on the board with a homerun to right. This single gave South Africa the lead. The third baseman for South Africa had a strong arm. Here, he recovers quickly after temporarily bobbling the ball to throw out the Taipei runner.
