Freezing issues after the new patch (Exhibition, Franchise and RTTS)

bobhead, if you erase the "additional content" from game data in the xmb, does that also erase the day 1 patch?

The homer I was referring to. I had to rewind back after the homer to show Gonzalez rounding 1B and coming back and stopping like he had just hit a single instead of a HR.

I've found you can actually simulate those missing games, but then it causes a lockup if you try to view the boxscore.

To me, it's a schedule issue, I am the database or something isn't getting fully updated when loading a patched franchise that's already been started. Or something to that affect.

Stupid MLB scheduling games in Japan and giving Miami a special home game.

Was weird that Mia did not get messed up in mine, only Oak and Sea.

Good detective work everyone. I'll just restart as I had already saved before the issue was known. Deleting the patch can't help me.

Yeah luckily I had only played one game in my franchise, so for me starting over was no big deal.

I did test a brand new franchise from scratch and simmed the whole season, I didn't see any scheduling lockup issues and this time all teams had 162 games counted for them in the standings.

BK...i agree with you. I'm playing as the Yankees and started m franchise last week with osfm st rosters and played a game last night before the patch and am on April 18th on my Yankees schedule. When I go to the Mariners schedule, it looks like they didn't play their games for the 17 th just yet..I know this is not true since I control 1 team and when I'm done I sim to the next day before I save.

I'm going to wait to see what we hear but worst case I will just restart my franchise. Even if I sim and it looks like it works now, I would hate to get deeper in my franchise only to have it lock up then.

That's my fear. It looks I could probably work around it by simming those games and just not messing with those teams, but I don't want to deal with other ramifications once I get deep in to my season. I am just going to cut my losses and start fresh.

Re: Freezing issues after the new patch (Exhibition, Franchise and RTTS)

So if iv'e heard this right. I can start my franchise post patch and not have any issues? Also couldn't I just delete the patch and play my franchise and avoid any freezing? Thanks.

I don't believe it does, because I didn't have that "Additional Data" file until this morning, but I have no idea what the day 1 patch did so I can't really confirm that.

Either way though, I'm not restarting my franchise, and sliders already fix the biggest issue on the list, so I'm fine just playing without the patch.

Just in case you guys missed it, you can delete the patch without deleting game data, custom music, or anything else. I'd hate to see everyone restart their franchises unnecessarily.

I haven't even looked into specifics like schedule issues such as games not counting. I shudder to think I may have to start fresh. I have a "shell" franchise file saved with Hustlin's 25 man rosters where I went through and added 15 payers to all 30 teams to fill the 40 man rosters. That took me 3.5-4 hours to finish. I do not want to have to do that again. I'd almost rather just delete the patch off my hard drive and never worry about it. Isn't the only issue pre-patch the start time for Cubs games? If so, then I honestly couldn't care less since I'm not using the Cubs.

No the issue is start times for ALL teams.

Yellow light of death .... first time I have ever seen this, and I've had the original PS3 since a few months after it came out.

I don't believe this.

I'm playing with an edited version of OSFM roster. I was in April in my franchise.

Installed the patch tonight, and picked up a game in the 7th innning, from my save file.

After the game, when I went to save my Sliders (had made changes during the game), the machine abruptly shut down.

When I re-started, I got the Yellow Light of Death.

I have played with this PS3 for over three years, sometimes for hours and hours in a day. It is well-ventilated.

I can only assume that there is some connection between this patch problem and my Yellow Light.

You stated you had this original PS3 since a little after it came out and then also state you have played with this PS3 for threes years. Its been almost 6 years since the PS3 has been out.I say there is NO connection here, and it was just its time to die.

I'm sorry but really? The original PS3, you've had it since release, and you think a video game patch caused the YLOD? Do you have any idea how many original PS3's have had YLOD over the years? There's a reason Sony completely redesigned the PS3 and everything.

I'm not saying it's impossible the patch caused it, since I'm not a developer, but I do know enough of the PS3's history to say that it's a pretty silly assumption to make.

Re: Freezing issues after the new patch (Exhibition, Franchise and RTTS)

The additional data file came with the release day patch (1.05)...this has now been updated to 1.06....if you delete this file you will remove ALL patches and also your online code details (you will need to enter these all again)

I tried this a few weeks ago when the scheduling issue was brought to light to see if 1.05 had caused it...it hadn't, the problem was with the code on the disc.

So, in summary, deleting this file will mean you will lose all patches.

Hope that helps

How so? I'm pretty sure I've had game start at night and day. I looked at the schedule for my next three game series and I'm scheduled for 7:00, 1:00, and 1:00 start times.
