i want to wipe out the new datafile from mvp 06. what will this change, because i want a bigger meter (i play on mvp) and i dont use the other angles. the problem is i hear everyone tell me that is in the first cd of mvp 2005 yet i cant find it. can someone give me step by step instructions on how to replace the new mvp 06 datafile with the deafult one?

Why the hell would you ever want to play with the default one? There are so many datafiles out there that are better than EA's. I suggest you learn how to create your own "angles".

Anyways - here is a link to the default datafile.

Put it in your "data" directory and delete the "EA" from the front of the filename.

thanks for the help but i decided not to do this. i need someone to tell me how to change the existing datafile so that the meter is the same size it was in the original. i know many people have said how to do this but i cant find the text to edit in my folder. so any help is wanted

Since when is there a datafile in the cd1? I thought it was built into mvp2005.exe.

The datafile.txt file is embedded in the datafile.big file (which resides in the datadatafile folder). To create a new datafile, you first extract datafile.txt from datafile.big and then make your tweaks (after you decompress it).

Here's what you need to do:

1. Find this line in the datafile:

0x739c0a96 233<batterpitcher>

2. Now change the following values:

Set 34 accuracywidth to 0.120

Set 40 linespeed to 0.750

Set 50 badaccuracywidth to 0.15

Set 141 perfectaccuracygreen to 255

Set 143 Perfectaccuracyalpha to 255

Set 144 perfectaccuracysize to 0.25

Set 152 accuracygreen to 255

This will restore the pitch meter to the default EA size and speed.

I installed the 06 final after a clean install of MVP, but my old edited datafile seems to still be in use. Since the 06 final has an installer, I don't know how to find just the datafile.txt. Can anyone point me in the direction of Kraw's updated datafile? I'd like to see all the new camera angles everyone is raving about.

Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken, if there is no datafile.txt in your data folder, then you should be using the one that came with the '06 mod.

If there is one there, rename it then see if it's different. I had no datafile.txt in my data folder when I installed the '06 mod clean.

I made the tweaks to the game file as listed at the bottom of the last page and I got the pitching meter to change, but now the trail on the ball when it's hit is huge and the missed pitch meter is a whole lot flatter, has anyone else had this problem?

Edit: On second thought, would putting the camera portion of the datafile.txt and using that in the data folder make it use the cameras from the mod but the physics from the other one? Could someone take the camera portion out of the one that comes with the mod and put in in a txt file?

Just wanted to know what kind of camera angles that you all play with? Meaning what camera angle do you use for batting/pitching and if you have modified your camera angle?

I am just trying to get a new look while playing this game and just wanted to know what others used. Here are the views that I use while playing.

Batting:

Pitching (to left handed batters):
