My apologies for the large file sizes but I simply do not have the time to upload these one at a time. Anyway, this ZIP files includes all of the National League stadiums (except for new Marlins Ballpark) with ads replaced from last season's versions. The majority of ads were created and placed by keithj and I have created a handful of of ads as well as a few commemorative/anniversary signage for some of the stadiums. These probably will not be placed exactly how I have them as they will be in real life but I thought it added a nice touch for the overall look. These are intended as "hold me overs" until keithj will release his superior stadiums as the season moves along.

Simply copy the included stadium files into your main game folder. Backup your original stadium files if desired.
Enoy!!

1964 St. Louis Cardinals Uniforms

I have not released many classic uniforms in a while; but thanks to Don and the update to TC 1964, I got the bug again to get some made for this great Total Classics mod.

These will drop right into Total Classics 1964 and they use the built-in font files.

*added period-correct look & texture of the uniforms.


Install the .ZIP file with TiT.

Enjoy!!

Here is my ad replacement for the new Marlins Ballpark stadium. I am sure they are not accurate becuase I have not seen a lot of current footage of the new stadium yet. I used the ads from my Marlins Field (CAS) Stadium I made for MVP Baseball and created some of the ads such as the Majestic/jersey ad. As you may know, I typically cannot stand generic ads in the stadiums so I am using this for right now.

Just copy the included .iff file into your main MLB 2k12 directory. This will replace the existing Marlins stadium.

Enjoy!!

Thanks to Sal...I was made aware that the New York Yankees had a strange uniform combination in 1915 and 1916, using a RED "NY" logo on their caps for those 2 years. Here is a uniform update for their home uniforms with the red logo on the cap.

Install the ZIP file into your Total Classics 1915 install with TiT.

Enjoy!!

Here is Pseudo-Fantasy CAS Stadium for the possible San Jose Athletics, called “SAN JOSE PARK”. With the prospect of the Oakland Athletics franchise moving to San Jose; I figured I’d make a stadium for them to play in. I like this idea especially since the Oakland Coliseum is a horrible baseball stadium and even more so, since the Mt. Davis conversion that makes it look like a big, boring, bowl.

* Athletics Crowd
* New Home Run Sign
* New ads that reflect the Atheltics in San Jose.

You can also change the ‘behind-homeplate’ logo by going into Owner Mode and Ballpark Setup.
Here’s what the 3 different logos correspond to:
EA SPORTS LOGO = a gold “SJ” logo
The BUZZ LOGO = a large “A’s” logo
MVP BASEBALL LOGO = A “San Jose” script logo

This is a CREATE-A-STADIUM, so you should simply copy the venuday & venunite files (DO NOT RENAME) into your data/stadium folder.

Also you will need to use the included the "ATHLETICS" owner mode file. Place file into your My Documents/MVP Baseball 2005 folder. Load it when selecting the "Create-A-Stadium" and choose day or night to play in the stadium.

Enjoy!!

NEGRO LEAGUE BASEBALL


By dennisjames71

After nearly a year of work…I wanted to finally present my All-Negro League Baseball Mod for MVP Baseball. After making my first negro league uniform last December, the effort snowballed into a full-fledged mod, thanks to all of the knowledge I’ve picked up and applied since then. At first I went at it for the purpose of making it for myself because of my love for the Negro Leagues; but I figured I would share my effort here so others may enjoy it as well.

So here’s what this thing is:
*A complete mod that transforms MVP Baseball into an 18-team (plus 2 EAST/WEST All-Star Teams) Negro League Mod. I’ve pulled some of the best all-time players from each franchise and through multiple eras, into a single team. Teams such as the New York Lincoln Giants will mostly have players from their best years in the 1910’s and early 1920’s for example.

*I’ve utilized the excellent Complete Book of Baseball’s Negro Leagues (John Holoway) and some Ootp All-Time Negro League spreadsheets to obtain the tough to find career statistics of many of the players. Statistics and Ratings for the better known players are more ‘polished’ than some of the lesser known players. Thanks to DylanBradbury’s superb batting/pitching calculators, I feel I was able to develop good but rough ratings for some lesser-known players who had very little information. I have portraits for the popular players and decided to use a generic negro league portrait for other players instead of the ‘blanked-out’ photos.

*Practically every single aspect of this game has been modded to get the user into a term me and redeck coined when we did our TC 1927 Integration series; historical immersion.

All music (walk-up & jukebox) is changed to very early blues and jazz songs.
Thanks to bctrackboi11; you’ll find “old” and worn baseball bats and a dirty, hard-to-see baseball.
African-American crowd in each of the 18 stadiums with celebrities like Joe Louis, Robert Johnson, and Duke Ellington making an appearance.
All fireworks visuals are removed. All fireworks and sirens sounds have been removed when a home run is hit. You will just hear the crowd roar.
All of the created uniforms are from the most popular eras of each franchise. Some teams (like the KC Monarchs) have 2 sets of home/road uniforms.

*I’ve modded/made 18 stadiums for the Negro League teams. They are typically modifications of the stock 1927 stadiums along with others. These are interpretations of well-appointed stadiums for the teams to play in and are by no means accurate; but they provide an excellent environment to play the games in.

*Much thanks to bctrackboi11 for his excellent and iconic 1942 KC Monarchs home uniforms and New York Cubans uniforms in which he gave permission to use. Credit goes to Thome25 for his late 40’s/early 50s New York Cubans uniforms which adds a nice touch as well. I had completed the remainder of the uniforms along with the brand new, original uniforms I made for the East and West all-star teams.

*I used many of the cyberfaces for popular players that me and redeck had in out TC 1927 Integration Mods. They were done predominantly by Homer and jogar84 and others. I apologize if I missed any of the other cyberface makers who allowed us to use them in our previous mods.

*I want to give thanks to my old partner redeck for being a motivator for making Negro League material when we worked on our mods in the past Winter/Spring. His painstaking work on those rosters enabled me to use many of the players and ratings into my full Negro League mod. Thank you bud.

*A ton of thanks goes out to OTBJoel for stadium and team audio. Back in the spring and before his epic Legends of the Booth mod; he was kind enough to provide his Legends to announce proper city/stadium names as well as team names for my mod personally. You will hear Ernie Harwell announce the game is between the “Homestead Grays versus the Kansas City Monarchs” for example.

*Unfortunately because I do not know player audio, there will be little of that throughout the game but perhaps if I am able to learn those skills, I can always update this project. Also since this was done prior to the Legends of the Booth release; this will have Kiper/Krukow play-by-play and commentary.

*Much thanks goes out to DylanBradbury who had created a tentative schedule that has a few kinks that we will iron out and it is included in the game. It is a 126-game schedule for Dynasty Play but please bear with us while we correct certain issues with it.

*Finally thank you Jim825 for keeping the flame burning of your excellent efforts of Total Classics Baseball. You have been an inspiration from Day 1 for me.

My mod is by no means the ‘end-all-be-all’ and definitive Negro League Mod but its accuracy and realistic values I feel are good enough for many of the Classic Baseball fans here at MVP Mods to enjoy and perhaps be inspired to create their own work or improve upon the foundation I have laid down, hopefully.

Lastly, this effort was done because of my enduring passion and respect for this group of men who played a wonderful style of baseball in the Negro Leagues. It was my nod of admiration and a way of creating a historical experience with these superb players and the game they played.

Feel free to try this out guys and I hope you enjoy the experience. It was well worth the effort to me.
