golftriber1 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I've searched through all of the forums here and haven't found an answer to my problem. I'm using llcmac and hypnoxxx's 3.5 rosters and would like to get them into the MVP Edit program to make roster moves, send guys up&down, edit certain players, etc. I have no clue at this point in how to do that. I'm used to using High Heat Edit where you DL a certain roster, load it into your "Save" folder and then open it in HH Edit. With MVP Edit, I'm clueless. I'd appreciate if someone could give me a step by step description in how to do this. I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stecropper Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 If those rosters were downloaded as .SAV files then you cannot get them into MVPEdit. If they were downloaded as .DAT files then you can use the MVPEdit "IMPORT" "DAT" function to get them into MVPEdit so you can edit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkB Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Import the files from the database directory, then save the file. When you want to use them in-game, export them to the database directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golftriber1 Posted March 14, 2005 Author Share Posted March 14, 2005 I'm still not understanding guys. Here's what I'm doing: I open up MVP Edit, click on Import, go to the Data directory in the MVP 2005 game directory, click on Database and it appears to be empty. I get the smaller box named "Save MBE file" and within that the Save in: MVPEdit. Then down at the bottom of this box is a blank white box Filename: Save as type: MVP Baseball Editor Files (*.mbe) I'm not sure what to do at this point.

golftriber1 Posted March 14, 2005 Author Share Posted March 14, 2005 Finally!! Success! I simply put "llcmac and hypnoxxx 3.5" in the filename box and bingo, it made that roster set into an .mbe file. Now I have one more question and then I think I'm all set for now: Whenever I now do editing on this roster or make changes of any type, do I have to export it back into the MVP data/database folder each time?

big shmooz Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Actually you can name the file anything you like. & save it. (it does not matter what you name the .mbe file) As far as your question, yes you do. The reason is, if you don't, it will indeed save your changes to the .mbe file, but since you have not exported that info into your game, the game will not know what you did. (the .mbe file you made is not part of your game files so the game does not read that information) However in the interest of saving yourself some time, I advise you to only do it right before you plan on playing a game, this will help in the sense of you will not need the game to know the info you changed till you actually play it. (Then you can do multiple edits without having to import each time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
