Misopogon Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 File Name: 04-10-2010 Roster AND Portrait update.zip File Submitter: Misopogon File Submitted: 02 May 2010 File Updated: 02 May 2010 File Category: MLB 2K10 - Rosters Version: 1 These files will set the MLB rosters to official current rosters of 4/30/2010, and also change all of the portraits that MVP Modders have uploaded to date. For example, rookie Austin Jackson's portrait will appear in all of its awesome glory when you play with the Tigers, and Curtis Granderson...[sob]...will be wearing...[shudder] a Yankee hat (Oh the wrongness!) (image from Samara Pearlstein's blog, "Roar of the Tigers." If you like my mods, please give her some link love). By the way, it's 50 megs, so...yeah. I will try to continue to update the portrait file with the rosters as the year progresses, but the pain-in-the-butt-itude of doing so may prevent me. Step 1: BACK UP YouR FILES Step 2: Portrait.iff and portrait.cdf go in your MLB 2K10 folder, most likely C:\Program Files\2K Sports\MLB 2K10 Step 3: Roster.ROS goes in your saves folder under Application Data. For Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[YOUR USER NAME]\Application Data\2K Sports\Major League Baseball 2K10\Saves FYI, the unused spaces I used to put in rookies and returnerswere as follows: 5 = Jeff Clement 9 = Allen Craig 12 = Ian Desmond 22 = Brian Duensing 30 = Jim Edmonds 33 = Jamie Garcia 39 = Craig Gentry 48 = Luke Gregerson 50 = Mark Grudzielanek 65 = Austin Jackson 81 = Kensihin Kawakami 90 = Brad Kilby 104 = Mike Lamb 115 = Rodrigo Lopez 119 = Colby Lewis 123 = Joe Mather 134 = John Raynor 139 = Ben Sheets 147 = Scott Sizemore 162 = Greg Smith 164 = Craig Stammen 172 = Steven Strasburg 176 = Mitch Talbot 179 = Jake Westbrook 181 = Jordan Zimmerman 192 = Brennan Boesch Click here to download this file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diether Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Hi Im playing a franchise well into late july and I dont want to start over, so Im still using opening day roster. Would it be ok to only use the portraits in this file with that roster? I dont care if the unused players dont show an updated pic. I still dont understand the in&outs of roster-portraits relationship in this game, that would explain the stupidness in my question. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misopogon Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 Hi Im playing a franchise well into late july and I dont want to start over, so Im still using opening day roster. Would it be ok to only use the portraits in this file with that roster? I dont care if the unused players dont show an updated pic. I still dont understand the in&outs of roster-portraits relationship in this game, that would explain the stupidness in my question. Thanks I am pretty sure that it will work. The changes on the Roster only affect those I listed. To my understanding, the way roster-portraits work is based on three files. 1. A Portraits file in your MLB 2K10 folder, which is a depository of all portraits. It is a large file: over ~100 megs unzipped. 2. An iff file. This file is a directory (and is a lot smaller than the portraits file). It can be modded. 3. A roster file. This can be a normal roster file or those saved in My Player or Franchise files. Within the roster file, each player has been assigned a numeric value that corresponds to a portrait. When the player is accessed, it will pull whichever portrait has been specified. The point: so long as you have the proper portraits and iff files in your 2k10 folder, when your franchise wants to load a certain player's image, if I have replaced that image, your game should pull up the replacement.

boomhauertjs Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Does this file have real minor leaguer names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misopogon Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 Does this file have real minor leaguer names? No. Unless they were changed by 2k. They are the 2K update for MLB, plus the at-time-of-upload portraits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diether Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Tnx for the info Misopogon. I'm using the portraits file right now with my ongoing franchise. Tried to update Luke Gregerson (originally unassigned) but no luck. It pulls a Tigers player I used the Roster Editor with what I thought was THE way to do it but no luck. No bigy..just glad to have Garland, O. Salazar and others with an updated pic. Thank you very much for your work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradinthedesert Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Anyone else having this problem? Yes, I'm having the exact same problem. I've tried several times to start a new franchise and each time it ends in failure. The crash to Windows seems to occur when loading the Headlines screen, which is (of course) the first screen that comes up when you load a franchise. I've gotten through three spring training games without the crash before, but once it happens, the franchise forever crashes to Windows when you try to load it. I'll have to restore the original files if I want to do anything besides play exhibitions. The mod rox otherwise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonSPa Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 usually what happens with ros files is there maybe a couple teams that have more than the 25 man rosters.I will try some time later and download this and check with tys editor and see if this maybe the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonSPa Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 ok i just checked and there are several teams that are under the 25 man roster which will cause a crash especially in franchise mode.Even with tys editor it crashes when ever i click on a team's team tab, that is short players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ming Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I went back to 2ks latest official roster and the ootb portrait files and havent had a crash since. Too bad, this was a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonSPa Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 it is still a good idea ,just when ur dealing with the .ros file ,it is real tricky and a very very time consuming work.Anyone working on roster files has to make sure all teams have the 25 men on the roster and also on every team tab make sure every position is filled and not any empty slots,both of these will cause the game to crash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misopogon Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 Thanks for looking into this, and I apologize to anyone who had trouble because of this (though I blame 2K more than myself). Since the problem isn't with the headshots, feel free to use that file, and also play exhibitions with that Mod. I will see if I can put together a clean mod (updated to newest rosters) this weekend.

Misopogon Posted May 22, 2010 Author Share Posted May 22, 2010 Other Modders can you doublecheck for me: Today's roster updates have 25 players on each team, right? That was my short-count but I want to be sure. Gonna update this mod tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misopogon Posted May 22, 2010 Author Share Posted May 22, 2010 oh no problem misopogon very very easy to miss Eh. I updated the files but it still crashes to desktop. I think I made a workaround that could make TyWiggins some money so I'm gonna go with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
