    Here is my 1983 Portraits Pack-Part 1. I know that there's no 1983 TC yet, but I just wanted to share the portraits that I've done specifically and authentically for my own 1983 MVP Season. It's far from done but I've done a few uniforms and portraits through the past few years so I thought that I'd at least share these. They might work ok in either a 1982 or 1984 or any misc. ones in between, but I just thought that I'd just throw them out for anybody that might want some. As far as installation goes, just follow my previous instructions in the 1974 Parts 1 & 2, and you'll do ok. Again if there's any questions or problems just let me know. Take care and enjoy! Eskie01

    Here finally is my 1974 Portraits-Part 2. Just as with Part 1, I install the individual portraits in and through my MVP Editor that you can download from here, by first, opening up the editor and go to the team and player that you want to add the portrait. Click on the portrait area where the red arrow is. If there's another portrait already click the delete button after first clicking on the portrait area. Wait until it says on the area in red, "No Portrait Found" and click on it again. Click on "New Picture" and go to where you have your portraits and click on a particular one and then click open and then click "OK" and "she's" in. The portraits illustrated aren't ALL the portraits included just a sample. If anybody has a question, just check with me and I'll help you. Enjoy the portraits and Have a joyous Christmas and a wonderful New Year. Eskie01
  3. I've been sending emails to a number of different members about my MVP Baseball 2005 not starting up for about 1 minute or so with any season that I tried. Well thanks to losing our electric here at home several days ago, I noticed that the battery backup that this pc is hooked to just beeped about once and then the pc items hooked up to it just went down which isn't normal when using an average backup...it stays up for 10 min. or so to give you a chance to shut down. Well, I ordered a battery for it and when I installed it...I had a notion to try one of my seasons and it started right up. Then later on it didn't. I noticed after some investigating that there were a couple weird updates that got installed that looked a little fishy. I uninstalled both of them and so far so good...whenever I try to start up MVP, it doesn't waste any time it boots right up like it used to and should do. I just wanted to mention this especially if anybody has the same problem and uses a battery backup. Take care Guys!!! Eskie01
  4. How 'bout the stupid tv screens on these? Also replace the A's tv screen with the flags & scrubary on the b & w photo beyond CF. Also with the Orioles, allow the in-game scoreboard to look like my file without blocking out a portion of the line score. Also if you'd be willin', teach me those tricks so I wouldn't need to pester ya so much...LOL. What ya think? Eskie01
  5. Thanks BallFour...LOL! Eskie01 PS: Now...LOL...how are you with removing stadium parts off and adding something else in its place??!!

    Here's my updated Baltimore Orioles uniform sets. They are basically the same as the previous ones up here plus I wanted Jim to take off the individual ones so I can put the 2 polyester 1971 uniforms together plus the all-orange uniform. I did recolor the uniform template to a more authentic look for the postseason road set plus I re-aligned the buttons to look as the originals did on the players. I also redid the catchers' gear to match the photo of Brooks Robinson, Elrod Hendricks & Mark Belanger congratulating the relief pitcher Dick Hall for his save in Game 2 of the 1971 World Series as you see pictured in the screen shots. I watched my highlight dvd of the 71 Series and Etchebarren in Game 4 of the series wore the exact thing as Hendricks did in that game 2 photo. To install copy the uniform(s) zips into the home MVP2005 folder and use Total Installer Thingy to install them into the game. Remember to back up your original ones just in case. If you have any questions let me know and enjoy the new sets! Eskie01

    Here is my 1989 Orioles Uniform set. Back some time ago, MVP91 sent me a compliment on my 1970s Orioles uniform sets and asked me to do him up a 1989 version...well here it is with some of the different research that I used. Of course as I did the other uniform sets, I used original buttons and uniform emblems (jersey, cap, & helmet). I also included my new catchers' equipment detail that I was trying to do and shared about in the MVP Forums. I also gave the batting gloves a little more vibrancy. I LOVE Spungo's gloves and his batting gloves, wristbands, etc., Pack. That's why I went to using my 1983 season to do the print-screens instead of the 1971 that I started using because in 71 there were quite a few players that didn't use batting gloves. I wanted to have them on too. To install just place the individual uniform zip (home, road, and/or alternate) into your home MVP folder and use Total Installer Thingy to install it into your game. It is well advised that you first backup your original game before so if you don't like them or something happens you can still have your original to replace the updated one. I hope MVP91 sees this post and I hope that others will like it too! Enjoy! Eskie01
  8. BallFour was almost (LOL) a genius. Neither of us were right...I was on the correct side but didn't take it far enough...the WHOLE right side is colored as attached will show. I attached each try's guard file and corresponding in-game photo. You can see what actually gets colored and what is ACTUALLY shown in the game. Besides of course the Orioles' shin guards, there were other teams through the years that had 2-tone shin guards as well. Maybe you missed the nail ole boy (BallFour), but at least you hit the wood nearby...in other words you got me thinking a bit!!! Thanks a million for your help!!! Eskie01

    Here are my 1972 Baltimore Orioles Uniform Sets. They are quite similar to the 1971 polyester Home and the road uniform that the team wore during the 1971 ALCS & 1971 World Series as well as the all-orange uniform manufactured by the Powers Manufacturing Company. However, the 1972 road uniform is a little different shade of gray as well as the orange & black stripes on the sleeves are reversed compared to the 1971 Postseason's. As far as the game version goes, compared to the 1971s that I uploaded, I... 1. Resized the bird emblem on the cap to compare more to the original proportion. I attached the original cap with the other photos. 2. As with the new 1971 A's uniforms that I just uploaded, I created more realistic catchers' gear that was close to what Elrod Hendricks & Andy Etchebarren wore during the 1971 World Series that I saw on our 71 WS Highlight Video. I attached a photo from each Game 1 & Game 6 of the 71 Series of Hendricks. I will be updating my 1971 Orioles sets in the near future. You can install these the same as any other uniform set. Just copy the zip files into whatever main MVP 2005 folder that you want and use the Total Installer Thingy tool to install each zip into the game. As always, if you have any questions just send me a message and I'll try to help you. Enjoy the sets! Eskie01
  10. I have another question as well, but it's about the game operation itself. When I tried to go and get a print screen by pressing replay, etc., when I turned the "camera" around to the front of the Orioles catcher, it completely kicked me out of the game. It never did that before. Could it be a peace of hardware going bad? I have all the RAM that I can put onto the mother board (32mb). I'm running W7 64 bit. I've done testing like when you boot up you can press function keys and go into menus...I pressed F12 and did the test in there and it all came back with green checkmarks. The pc itself seems to be running extra slow than it's supposed to. Could it be a Windows update like Framework 4.5, etc. I have a list of updates to NOT install to allow MVP to run and I don't have any on that listing on the pc. It also takes about a minute for the game to show the intro pic as attached below...the 00000056 one. I've defragged my butt off and tried to reinstall the operating system to NO avail. I gotta get this fixed...it's driving me buggy!!! Also, just out of nowhere the game automatically minimizes to the taskbar. Thanks, Eskie01
  11. I was wondering how can I change the color of part of the shin guard (knee area) and have it show in the game. Here is what I did and what I'd like it to look like. When I then checked in the game, the knee part was still all black. Thanks, Eskie01

    Here is my 1983 Orioles Uniform Set. The screen shot of the home uniform is actually my 1978 home set which everything is the same except for the bird emblem on the cap...it'll be like the 1983 road one. Both uniforms were original done by Rawlings with both jersey fonts being standard block. I also used the original buttons from the Singleton jersey on my repros...with the button holes all vertical except for the top one. I tried my best to get the "jersey material" the same gray color as the originals shown so they would look the same as the original in-game photos in MVP05 itself. To install, just copy the 2 zip files to your main MVP folder and use the Total Installer Thingy tool to install them into the game...remember to back up your current ones before stalling in case you don't like these. Next on my agenda, are...redoing my 1972 road uniform set and tackling a request for the 1989 Orioles uniform set. HOPEFULLY after that, I can get away from the Orioles and do another 1970-71 team uniform. After I do a few different teams, I want to add a 1984 left sleeve to my 1983 Orioles uniform set. If you have any questions please ask and thanks! Eskie01

    Here is my 1976 Orioles Uniform Set. As I mentioned under the 1975 version, I reversed the cap emblems from the 75 set. To install just unzip the zip file on your desktop and copy which ever individual or all of the home, road and/or alternate into your MVP home folder and use Total Installer Thingy to install them individually into the game. Please let me know if you have any problems so I can help ya with it. Enjoy! Eskie01
  14. I just like to do things myself and share with folks. I did get a positive comment and he wants me to something else for him. Eskie01
  15. Hi,

    Ballfour told me to come to you.  I'm still trying to create new team name audios.  I got the dat opened up to the 6 different asf files.  How can I make them the exact size as the previous ones and what apps do I need?

     

    Thanks,

    Here are some 1974 player portraits. Some could be better so if I can either improve upon the current one or find a better photo of the same player, I'll add it to Part 2 of the 1974 Portraits when I get those organized. The way that I install them is to go into the MVP editor and make sure that the season file in the editor is pointing to the data folder in the 1974 game folder or wherever any individual wants to use them in the options of the Tools heading in the editor itself. Go to the appropriate player's line and click on the square box under that player and click on add picture and find where you put Dick Green for example and select his portrait. Then click open at the bottom of the screen and then you'll see the editor again with the new photo in the left square and then click ok. The new portrait should appear now in its player's square. If there's a portrait already there, use the delete function to the right of where you see add a new picture. If you have any questions, send me a note and I'll help you with this. Enjoy the portraits...I'll be adding part 2 of these in the near future. Eskie01 PS: These samples that you see are just a tip of the iceberg...there's many more in the actual zip file.

    Here's my 1977-78 Baltimore Orioles uniform pack. It's the exact same as the 1975-79 (1973-74 didn't have the orange uniform and they didn't have the white front panel cap) uniforms themselves except for the bird emblem on the cap. To install, just unzip the uniform pack on your desktop and then copy any of the home, road, or orange alternate uniform zip files to the main MVP Baseball folder that you want and then use Total Install Thingy to install each zip file individually (home, road, or alternate) into your MVP Baseball Season. If you have any questions just send me a note and I'll try to answer your questions. Enjoy! Eskie01
  19. Hey Dennis,

     

    I wrote the following message to "BallFour" since I didn't see you on the site for awhile, "Hi,  Would you be able to replace the artificial turf in Dennis James' 1970's Three Rivers Stadium to dirt???  I just watched Game 4 of the 71 WS the other day on You Tube and 3 Rivers had a dirt infield and artificial turf in the outfield, unless the turf was artificial in the infield but between bases was dirt instead of like Riverfront where the bases just had dirt but the rest was turf."

     

    Would you be able to make those changes to your Three Rivers Stadium?  Here are some pics of what I sent him.  Would you have time to do a KC Municipal or a Senators' RFK, or adjust your current Veterans, etc., to be authentic for 1970-71?

     

    Thanks Man!

  20. I wrote a question for you the other day about a "Run-time Error 48, Error in loading DLL).  Well, I renamed my old 1971 Season game folder and started right from scratch with a "new" 1971 season MVP 2005 game.  I'm doing the same as I mentioned when I was doing the 1976 one, and so far so good, I'm NOT having any problems with importing team members from Lahman's DB 5.3.

     

    I don't know if the problem stemmed from this or not, but I've noticed that my Norton Security program goes into different folders like for example mods or utilities I get here and pulls out files and puts them thankfully into the quaranteen section.  Do you know how I can try to prevent this from happening?  I've restored the files but I don't want it to happen at all.

     

    Thanks,

    Here are my 1971-72 St. Louis Cardinals uniforms. Once again I got the cap, helmet, & jersey emblems and logos from auction sites. In original photographs, it was very hard to tell them apart...they were so close in color. It was kinda tough to get a road template that wasn't too dark but didn't look identical in the game. To install, copy a zip file into the MVP Baseball 2005 home folder and use Total Installer Thingy to install into the game. They are in the "a & b Cardinals uniform slots". Enjoy and if you have any questions, let me know! Eskie01

    Here are my 1973-74 Orioles Uniforms. The majority of the uniform is the same as the 1975-81's except it has the 1971 cap & helmet. The home was made by Rawlings and the road by Wilson. BTW, I AM doing other uniform sets other than Orioles & A's, I thought I had the 71-72 Cardinals done but while getting some other in-game pics together I noticed that the helmet color was a little too light so I'll have to fix it. I'm almost done with the 1970-71 Reds too. I plan on redoing the Senators and Red Sox after those fixes. To install, just copy a zip file into the home folder of MVP Baseball 2005, and then use Total Installer Thingy to install it into the game. They are placed in the "a & b slots". If you have any questions let me know! Eskie01

    Here is my 1979-81 Baltimore Orioles Uniform Set. For 1982-88 they had a different maker for the road uniform which included a different number font and a little different gray hue to the actual uniform cloth. From 1977-78 had a different cartoon bird. The home uniform was of course done by Rawlings with the regular block numbers and both the road and alternate jersey was done by Wilson with the Wilson Varsity number font. I just put in the 75's in-game pics because everything was the same except the cartoon bird. To install, just copy a zip file into the MVP Baseball 2005 home folder and use Total Installer Thingy to install into the game. They go into the "a, b, & c" Orioles uniform slots. If you have any questions, just let me know! Eskie01

    Here's the 1970 Oakland A's uniforms. They're basically the same as the 1971 except for the cap & helmet...that's why I only have one uniform in an in-game photo...I wanted to key on the hats. I tried to go into auctions and the like to find the hat emblems...again, as I mentioned in the 71 A's description, as soon as I find an original helmet emblem that will work correctly I'll upload an update. To install, just copy a zip file to the MVP Baseball 2005 home folder and use Total Installer Thingy to install it into the game. I place these and the 71 A's into the "i, j, & m slots". If anybody has a question, let me know! Eskie01
