A problem with year to year saves

Re: A problem with year to year saves

To update these random players that have their likliness removed, perhaps we can create a thread to sync up OSFM 14 rosters. Since the game doesn't allow us to change much more than his name, number and audio, it shouldn't be too daunting.

Might need a thread for each OSFM version?

I think that's a good idea and it should be the same players no matter the roster version be used so it shouldn't be too difficult

Re: A problem with year to year saves

Can u bring a roster file from MLB 14 or a saved created player i.e. Buxton over to 15?

If I'm to understand correctly, no you cannot, unless the roster in question was used in a Franchise, Season or RTTS

Re: A problem with year to year saves

Ok, I'm not going to lie; I'm a little disappointed with losing the likenesses of players using Y2Y saves.

Example: Alfredo Aceves is my closer in my 2015 Yankees Franchise file (carried over from 2014). He is currently a member of the SF Giants organization (though as a minor leaguer).

Now, perhaps I'm wrong but wouldn't a player like Aceves be apart of the MLBPA or has his status changed?

It wouldn't be that bad but HIS LAST NAME is not in the audio files.

Sort of kills the illusion. He's my closer.

I get not having Jeter. But Aceves? And no last name audio file?

Yeah this is real disappointing. I'm not carrying over my RTTS until we know if this is the design or just an issue that can be fixed. If it is the design and those players aren't coming back, then I guess I may as well deal with it and hope my RTTS team trades Medlen away.

I could be wrong, but I think this is an unfortunate side-effect of how the game recognizes "legal" MLB players. I don't think they have anything programming in place to specifically detect MLBPA status...it seems like it goes strictly off of who SCEA has as active in there current 15 roster, which is why guys who are in the minors and/or have long-term injuries are getting caught up with guys who are no longer active at all.

I'm curious as to how many of these cases change (if any) if you import after certain roster updates or if it goes strictly off of the base roster.

As far as I know we're not given a choice of which roster to base the import off of. If we do, it definitely isn't obvious.

I did download the latest roster available, by the way. Or I guess I should say the game did so automatically.

Can someone check if Aceves is currently with SF in the official roster for me? I'm not home right now.

On the teams official website he's not even listed as on the 40 man don't know about the game itself though.

Re: A problem with year to year saves

I'm usually a lurker on here more than a poster. Just wanted to chime in and say I'm having the exact same issue described above.

Exactly my problem too... I back and watched the Twitch video on this. Ramon said... you can transfer your saved franchises and RTTS with a two-step process:


1. On your PS4 MLB 15 go to Download from the Cloud.
2. Download your PS3 MLB 14 save file to PS4
3. Go to Load from MLB 14 on your PS4


Franchise or RTTS will show up in MLB15 PS.


However, all that is mute if there are NO SAVES available on the Cloud.

No, we're not given a choice. I'm simply talking about how it seems things might be read in the background. I'm only wondering whether or not roster updates including certain players will eventually reflect in save transfers or if everything operates on the base game.

As for Aceves, no, he is not in the game currently.

Re: A problem with year to year saves

Thanks man. I just tried all of that and still comes up saying that there is no data to load. I'm not sure what's up with it. If one of The Show guys could elaborate more as to if we can access those yet or not then that would be great. As of right now, mine isn't transferring over to '15.

Same here. I'm wondering when the Cloud will show the saves.

This seems to be (possibly) what's going on for some of the players. But if my memory serves me correctly we use a list to replace guys, if people aren't in that list they should stay the same.

Won't really know until we are back in the office and can fully test. It's a brand new ground breaking feature there will be hiccups and cases we didn't experience during test.

Re: A problem with year to year saves

I think he meant you have to download it back down on your PS3 copy of '14. It probably doesn't convert automatically (to save bandwidth... I'm guessing you just uploaded this cloud file today). Re-downloading it back onto PS3 probably forces the server to update the file, thus rendering it compatible with your PS4.

No you have to gave loaded the ps4 version of the game onto your console. Without doing that the system can't see the save file because it's in a different structure. No way around that since your save file was created using tbd PS3 version of the game.

Ok. So basically I would need to buy/rent the PS4 MLB '14 game, convert my RTTS from PS3 '14 version to the PS4 version, then go in and download it to '15 on the PS4 for it to work properly.

This absolutely makes sense.

Russell, while we have you here, maybe I can get official word from the big man himself on a question I had asked earlier. If I carry over my franchise through Year to Year saves, am I able to turn off GM contracts, or am I required to use them?
