I LOVE THIS!

I can't believe how pumped I am for my set reworked by you guys.
I like the teamwork and ideas being implemented as well.

Kudos!

Looks like Saberhagen is getting another chance in full PS4 glory!

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

Yeah I have it. Do you need it? I'm thinking the first MiLB players that should be put in should be all the guys that had or eventually would play in the bigs, because that's the ones that people really want to be more detailed. Then, the career-long minor leaguers can be put in and maybe we don't have to spend as much time to morph the faces... I'm thinking that for them, right skin color, head shape, hair and facial hair would be fine.

Yep, I'm thinking along those same lines for the minors

Yes, if you could upload the zip file it would be much appreciated.....I lost a lot of files back then when my PS3 died.....thanks

I've uploaded the up to date roster, look for "OS 94 NL East"

I'll upload Baumy's 1996 somewhere and link to it here.

The original data is worth the port. Awesome work all around, man!

Also, my 1994 Expos get to have another chance to graduate from Best Team In Baseball to World Series champions!

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

Sweet, thanks!.....Going to get to work on that file later.....hope to have it done by this evening......

edit: I'm a diehard Yankees fan but I remember that year being intrigued by how well the Expos were doing......what a team they had, I was bummed out we didn't see that year finish out

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

One of my favorite rosters as well! In fact, I have to finish my playoffs before the PS4 comes out. Right now I'm in a 3-1 hole to the Blue Jays (I'm the Indians) in the ALCS. The other side is the Reds and Giants. Great, great roster... Looking forward to seeing this on the 4!

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

Got started on some of the Braves faces/acessories last night and completed the pitchers.....things went a little slow at first but picked up after the first few guys as I started to develop a rhythm......have to scale back my expectations a bit in regards to when I thought I could finish it.......but I will get through it


I work during the day so won't be able to get back at it until this evening

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

That's okay man!

Copying down is going good. Got the Cubs and the Reds ready to go and working on the Astros now...

Wondering whether to put the 94 Astros in the 2014 Astros roster (Which would put them in the AL) or to put them in the Brewers' roster (And then put the 94 Brewers in the 2014 Astros roster)

Would be a bit of a mess, but at least the teams would be in the right divisions.

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

Yeah I hear you, that actually sounds like a solid idea.....if I had to pick between the two, I'd probably prefer that the players were in their proper divisions as opposed to the teams

This way when you're playing an AL series against the Astros you'd be going against the Brewers players from back then

Until or if we ever get the ability to realign divisions, not much you can really do

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

Prolly wouldn't take all too much work to shift all players from HOU to MIL and vice versa so no matter what ends up getting done, those who don't like can fix easy. Personally having Biggio and Caminiti in Brewer blues just doesn't appeal to me. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but in this case like I was sayin it's a quick fix either way so no biggie. Looks like you guys are kickin butt on this...can't wait man!

Yes they are, same franchise and their away uniform is similar to a uniform the Expos used to have... too bad we don't have Expos gear as throwbacks though.

I'll be generic-ing out the Rays and D-Backs with awful, very old players on 1 year contracts with the idea that they'll only stay in the game one year as placeholders. This way, Rays and Backs will go for free agents during the season, claim guys off waivers and start building themselves up, and get good draft picks, then in the offseason they'll sign more free agents... I want the two teams to build themselves organically. At least, that's the idea, I'll have to test sim that once we're through.

There's really no good way to do it since we can't remove them. I hear the idea of putting in Japanese or Mexican teams in but I'm thinking this would bring a lot of players in the sim that have nothing to do with it. Doing it my way, the original players of the 2 teams are total non-factors.

THAT, or another idea would be to do some sort of fantasy expansion draft with the initial Free Agents and give both teams 25-men rosters + generic'd farm teams.

Ok thanks...I look forward to having a season with my favorite team, Indians from 1994.

Yeah I'd prefer them to be on correct teams. I can deal with wrong division lol. Either way its done, like you said it would be easy to swap players on the two teams.

Re: Porting Knight's 1994 set to MLB 14

Almost done with copying down the NL Central, down to doing the pitchers of the Cards.

I'm thinking I'll be through with the National League this week.

Funny: One of Sony's fakes made it to the original 1994 set: I'd never heard of Francesco Calzado on St-Louis and I figured out why :-p
