Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

I noticed last night that I couldn't make any more CAPs when I loaded Knight's roster. I imagine they were all needed to make the Full Minor Leagues. There were also a number of A potential players in free agency that were gone when I loaded Knight's roster. Seems like making trades will be the way to go when I do start my new franchise.

Don't forget.....when you start your franchise proper.....you get all new editable fake players on the FA list.
You will have PLENTY of guys(a lot of B's and some A's too usually) to create/change whoever you want(you guys that want an A Dexter Fowler....whoever can do this!) once you actually start one.

So, essentially v4 and v5 are a few days away, v6 should be out today.

So glad I like stock rating right now

Yes...I have v6 almost ready(stock everything from SCEA/full minors/struts updates)

I need basically one day after I get the other two.(each.)

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

It just hit me. Will any of these version rostesr not have player injuries included? Just wondered if we'll have a clean roster when we start our dynasty with. No, I don't want too use SCEA's.

There is a thread that shows everything you need to do injury wise to put the major leaguers where they need to be.

Yeah maybe a little before midweek. The stamina edits will probably be done by the weekend.

I'm planning on using the V5 rosters and the Perfect sliders. Those sliders have changes to stamina, including reliever stamina down to zero. Is this going to be a problem considering it sounds like you guys are putting in stamina edits as well?

Re: Operation Sports Full Minors '09 - Discussion Thread

That's supposed to be like that. Some of that will change in the next version. The breaking fastballs will stilll be their first pitch though.

Glad to hear that Razr. Looking forward t the next version.

Quick question for the good doctor. I plan on starting a new franchise using Knight's V5 rosters. I have not downloaded the patch and have no intention of playing online. Is it worth the risk at this point or should I just keep 1.01 and go from there. I don't want to have to wipe all my saves (sliders, profile, etc) and then have issues with the replays et al. What do you think?

Yeah, V6 is for me this year too. I can't wait to get my hands on that bad boy. Then I will probably edit a few pitchers pitches myself like Zambrano.

What sucks is that since I like the lineups correct, I will have to use my lineup workaround after spring training of a franchise and that's a lot of work too, but I practically have the OD rotations, lineups L and R remembered now, lol. I am definitely editing Helton too to make sure he NEVER leads off, lol.

Knights V5 lineups do a pretty good job of keeping the lineups in correct order, and this is important especially if you like CPU roster control OFF. It's (Knight's lineup fix roster like V5) really the only way to go this year if you like that off.
The new patch did not "fix" the lineup logic at all (nor the CPU roster control ON lineups). If you use CPU roster control on you have to do my lineup workaround to get correct sim game and played games lineups. Its more work.

It also introduced a glitch in which highlights do not always play at the end of the game or flashbacks in the middle of the game. Mine was working fine until last night when they quit working. When I went into the replay vault, it only showed the batter and everyone else was missing. The ball was hit and then jiggled around the infield, lol. SCEA said they are releasing a mini-patch to fix that.

Existing Franchises have frozen due to the new patch (this doesn't pertain to you) because of an extra game in the schedule (that is what has been reported at least).

In your case, you may be better off just keeping 1.01 since you don't need to go online and due to the patch introducing other problems. You may at least want to hold off on it to see what resolution comes. But, of course if you start a franchise without the new patch, and then decide to load it later, it may not work correctly (unless SCEA addresses this too later). If you want to play RTTS, you will probably have to download the patch from what I have read (I don't know a whole lot about RTTS since I have never played it).

Thanks for the quick and detailed reply. I don't go online or play RTTS. I will play season or franchise mode (most likely franchise for the full minors) with the Blue Jays and will play with Roster Control On. So it looks like I will have to perform your work-around (i.e. reset all the lineups after spring training and then use the two controller method for the computer teams that I play.

I think I will stick with patch 1.01 and see how things play out with the mini-patch coming out for 1.06. If it looks like it addresses some of the issues and won't affect my existing franchise, then I might download it. From the sound of things, I may know the status of the mini-patch before V5 rosters are ready and I start my new franchise. if that is the case, then I can make my decision at that time. I'm in a holding pattern until then...

Thanks again.

I am not sure if the workaround fully works without the patch because I did not discover it until after I installed the newest patch. I know the 2nd controller method works, but I am not sure about the setting the lineups after spring training for sim games aspect of it. You may want to just edit one teams lineup after spring training and test to see if it did work for sim games without patch 1.06 If I remember correctly, it (my cpu roster control ON lineup workaround) DID NOT work prior to patch 1.06. The second controller did work I remember however. Doesn't help with sim games though.
