BallFour

Introducing MVP Baseball '98, a complete overhaul of just about everything! This mod has literally been over 15 years in the making, with frustrating restarts and computer crashes and losing files and everything, but at last it's done, in time for the 20th anniversary of MVP Baseball 2005. Features: In this mod, you'll be able to play in all of the 30 MLB parks, with era appropriate signage. You have legit ballparks for each minor league and spring training stadium. All classic stadiums have been replaced to stadiums that were still standing in 1998 (albeit perhaps a bit modified, like Jarry Park, which is now a tennis stadium). You'll see a bunch of new, never released cyberfaces that I created. In addition, you'll have the chance to play as any number of "Comebacks" for retired players, including Nolan Ryan, Kirby Puckett, Don Mattingly, Fernando Valenzuela, and many many more! All players have accurate birthdays to reflect their ages in 1998. If you'd like to use the ScheduleUpdater tool, I will be releasing a mod shortly that will have the legit birthdays for when you roll back the clock. You just won't be able to play the All-Star Game due to errors with that. Uniforms! I got my start on this site as a uniform mod creator, and I put my heart and soul into these uniforms. All teams have throwback uniforms and alternates. All minor league teams that had alternate uniforms have them. So sure, you might not ever play as the Prince William Cannons, but if you do, you'll be able to wear their softball top alternates if you wish! All players have proper uniform numbers, as best information as can be provided. Portraits have been updated so that every player who has made the Major Leagues now have audio and a picture. Some pictures are low quality because they were ripped from baseball cards, but I just had to do my best with that. Players that never made the MLB have the logo of their current big-league club as the default. All team, stadium, and player audio has been updated to so that every player has at least play by play names, and every stadium and every team has correct audio, to the best of my ability. Menu music featuring all of your old favorites, from Ken Griffey Jr. presents Major League Baseball on the SNES to MLB '99, feel the nostalgia as you browse through the menus. For those that wish to use the Schedule Updater tool, a separate download has been created with proper birthdays for that. Just a reminder, you must manage/sim the All-Star Game if you use Schedule Updater. NEW! (6/27/25): For those that want to play the most accurate version with all of the real life injuries, a new separate download has been added. Please follow the instructions to properly get things working, especially if you don't want to play as the Yankees. Limitations: Due to hard coding, the winner of the All-Star Game will have homefield advantage. If you wish to remain era accurate, you'll have to win as the American League in 1998, National League in 1999, and so forth. Using the schedule updater means you have to simulate the All-Star game or your dynasty will crash. Like with many TC mods, playing multiple games may result in a crash, so be sure to save often. Away bullpen cameras not lining up at 3Com Park (San Francisco) and neither home nor away bullpens are lining up correctly at LA Memorial Coliseum. The San Diego Padres World Series team's uni select screen may say that the uniforms need to be unlocked. This is not true and you can scroll to select the uniform and it will load into the game as normal. If you are playing in certain miscellaneous stadiums (Doubleday Field and Jarry Park among others) and you see a MISSING TEXTURES message pop up in red and green, TURN COOPERSTOWN EFFECT OFF. This will solve the problem. I would recommend turning off Cooperstown Effect for your MVP profile entirely, since it won't be necessary for anything in the mod. Acknowledgements: A big thanks goes out to all the modders that came before me - andy82, Pirate, Sean O, MarlinsMY, Hory, Kraw, DylanBradbury, TyWiggins, Rolie, DennisJames71, salva, Bodhiball, MarkB, Kennyess, Homer, Trues, and many more that I'm sure I'm forgetting right now. A special thank you as well to Jim825 for the installer and to Yankee4Life for encouragement along the way! Please enjoy, and be sure to leave a review!

After literal years of trying to get this to work, I've finally cracked the code on how to edit team and stadium audio. If you're looking to finally update the various leagues to their present day team names, if you're looking to finally have that new corporate sponsored stadium name, or if you want to roll things back for a Total Classic, this tutorial will teach you how to do just that. The tutorial comes with a MSWord document and the NHL 07-06 ASF Player, a tool needed to export files.

As a treat for those who have been waiting patiently for MVP Baseball 1998, I've created this intro video for the game. I'll be trying to convert it to .vp6 so that it can actually play in the game as the intro video. But we shall see. Hope you enjoy the flashbacks to 98!

Another correction of a mod here. This time it's Sean O's fantastic Exhibition Stadium. The stadium is clearly a masterpiece of modding, but one minor thing overlooked was the makeup of the field. In Sean O's original, there was artificial turf, but there was the normal dirt infield. With this updated mod, I've corrected the field surface by changing the color of the turf a little bit and then changing things from the dirt infield to the sliding pits that Exhibition Stadium featured. You'll also notice some late 90s logos on the outfield walls. This is because Exhibition Stadium will feature as one of the Classic Stadiums in the MVP 98 mod. This mod will replace the SkyDome/Rogers Centre in a default install of MVP Baseball 2005. Always remember to back up your files. Enjoy!

Another re-upload of Salva's incredible work, and another stadium that had a coding error that corrupted the cram32.fsh file. Once again, I was able to resurrect the missing textures to remove the errors, and so that you can enjoy the fully modded Seibu Dome. You'll notice that beyond the outfield are trees, which is because the Seibu Dome is actually built like that, with views of the greenery around the dome. This will replace Metropolitan Stadium in a default install of MVP Baseball 2005. Always remember to back up your files. Enjoy!

This is an edited re-release of salva's Tokyo Dome. There were multiple issues with the cram32.fsh file that salva had created, and I was able to fix them. You'll now be able to play in the Tokyo Dome without missing textures and without the huge "Giants" banner in the right field bleachers. This stadium will overwrite the Astrodome in a default install of MVP Baseball 2005. Always remember to back up your files. Enjoy!

This is a uniform mod for the Beloit Sky Carp, the rebranded High-A affiliate of the Miami Marlins. Included are the home and road jerseys, font files, and uni select screens. Please note that this will add two uniform slots. To install, simply use TiT. Always remember to back up your files.
