mrg1 Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I know there is already a Negro Leagues mod in progress, but I think it would be awesome if you put the 1932 Pittsburgh Crawfords in with some of the major league classic teams. Josh Gibson, Oscar Charleston, and Satchel Paige on the same club Best team ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYY_rich Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Can you make sure that for the players that are already in the game... make sure the PA announcements are in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexTony Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 putting the audios in is a bit of work. have not even gotten to the pa announced because still a bit to go with the regular last names to create the 'TC' project is a bit of work. still working on classic teams also. adding a few more pics, etc. will need help with adding some more classic teams but, it is coming along nicely. thanks to 'ALL' the modders and time invested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Can you make sure that for the players that are already in the game... make sure the PA announcements are in there For the players already in the game, we're trying to use the same portrait IDs used by their current 2005 counterparts. For example, Derek Jeter has a portrait ID (and therefore an audio ID since the same value is used for both) of 421 on the 2005 Yankees. I assigned the same ID (421) to him on the '96, '98 and '00 Yankees. This was easy since he's always been on the Yankees, meaning that the same portrait can be used for each roster. It's a little trickier for players who appear on rosters for different teams. For example, Randy Johnson has a portrait ID of 432 on the 2005 Yankees. He is assigned this ID (432) on the '97 Mariners and a portrait of him with a Mariners cap is assigned to this ID. For the 2000 Diamondbacks, Johnson has a portrait ID of 7377 and a portrait of him with a Diamondbacks cap is assigned to this ID. AlexTony added an entry to the audio table at location 7377 so that the name "Johnson" is heard for the 2000 Diamondbacks Randy Johnson. This is the only way this can be done because a player's portrait ID is also his audio ID (i.e. there is only a single field displayed in MVPEdit, not one for each).

Jim825 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Teams I'm working on... '93 Phillies '83 Orioles '91 Twins Any more requests? jewgrass - Once you get the .met files done for these teams, could you send them my way? I can assign unique portrait IDs for them and add their portraits to the portrait.big file (I'm doing that for the 15 teams that AlexTony has created). I'll then re-export the .met files and send them to you or to Fuzz. AlexTony already has portraits for the '83 Orioles and '91 Twins. We'll have to see if he has portraits for the '93 Phillies.

jewgrass Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 hey Jim, I have no problem with that, but I'd like to OK it with AlexTony. Going through the 91 Twins, 7 of the guys were on the 87 Twins, so I used the same audio/photo ID for those. Makes sense to use the same picture, unless you have other plans... BTW, I'm going to start on the 1964 Cardinals, not because they were the World Series champs, but because of BOB UECKER!! This game would not be complete if Bob wasn't present! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I'm going to start on the 1964 Cardinals, not because they were the World Series champs, but because of BOB UECKER!! This game would not be complete if Bob wasn't present! That's fine. AlexTony and I "talk" almost daily about this stuff and he keeps me updated with his audio ID mods. 98% of the portraits I'm adding are from his "1906 thru 2001 classic pics" package. I know that there is a "1987-91 Minnesota" folder in the package and that's where I would have grabbed the portraits from. To conserve precious portrait.big space, I reuse portrait IDs wherever I can. I had already figured that some of the players on your '91 Twins would use the same portraits as those on the '87 Twins team that was in TC2. I'm doing the same thing for AlexTony's '75 Red Sox, which will share a lot of the IDs with the '78 Red Sox. Many of the players on the '96 and '98 Yankees that I created and the 2000 Yankees that Fuzz created use the same portrait ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danc Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 So it looks like the mlb level will not be all-time greats for each franchise in phase 3. Is that right? Just curious. PS - What is the vertical structure for phase 3? i.e. mlb -> aaa -> aa -> a all the same franchise or a random mix?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, with MVPEDIT anyone can realign the majors and minors as they wish. C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danc Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Thanks capa. This is important to know because I just found out that I can't have more than four dynastys going at the same time in this stupid 2k5 version!!!!!!!!!!! Please advise on how to use mvpedit to align the "16" possible teams in the way that I choose. I can not believe that this damn game puts a limit on dyanasty play!! :twisted: Sorry, but classics 2.0 with portraits has just made me a convert to 2k5. I'm slow but I'm steady. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
