Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks
Thanks for the tips. I stuck to meter pitching but raised the contact and power sliders one each. I played two games vs the A's in my season and i won 3-2 and than lost 4-3 so maybe thats all I needed to do. Thanks again for the great sliders.Comment

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks
I played a game with my Royals against the Twins, changing only the view from "Wide" to "Catcher", raising User Contact from 5 to 10, and setting fielding and throwing to manual (I'm tired of seeing line drives zoom past my outfielders without an attempt to catch the ball). Had an excellent game, although I lost 2-1
Twins 2 12 0
Royals 1 4 1
Only struck out seven times in the game, six of them thanks to Kyle Lohse. I was able to foul off more pitches and put more balls in play. The good thing was that with contact at 10, I wasn't whacking the ball around; rather, I saw more soft popups, soft grounders, and choppers. My only run of the game came off of a Mike Sweeney opposite field blast.
I think I'm going to stick to these settings for good. Thanks for the help and your good work with these sliders. They've made the game much more enjoyable for me!

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks
No problem guys...I am glad they are working out for you both.
Ryan--I have a strong feeling that the game is so well made that contact would still yield great hit variety.Formerly Favre4vrComment

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks
Just an update. I love the sliders. 42 games into my O's franchise using the meter to pitch, and I must be really horrible compared to you guys. I have a team ERA of 6.31 and averaging 5+ walks a game. I just can't pitch to save my life in this game. I'm in last place with a record of 12-30.Highheat's O's Franchise

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks
well i think i'm finally going to bring myself to try classic again after using it on king of the diamond to see if i could get a feel for it, it seemed that there wasn't a speed difference between taping, holding for a little bit and holding all the way though.... oh well i'm going to try the classic pitching sliders because even though not the greatest era with the meter and such i paint the corner with too much ease, not really realistic will report tomorrow or monday on the classic attemptComment

Re: Favre4vr's HOF slider tweaks
Originally posted by favre4vrAlright boys...I came up with a few tweaks b/c I have recently become enchanted with classic pitching. I was getting great results with the meter, but classic is something new for me now. I still stand by my other set so I will post them below these new tweaks as "Meter" version. Thanks to Cowboype2000 and Highheatkingsb for their input.
CLASSIC PITCHING HOF SLIDER TWEAKS *As of April 15, 2006
Level--HOF
CLassic Pitching
Batter view--Wide
Pitcher view--outfield
Fielding view--Low (My preference)
All pitching aids off
Everything set to manual (baserunning, fielding)
Pitch Speed- Default to +4 whatever you are comfortable with.
Contact-- -5 for me, -2 for the CPU (Default is 10)
Power--Default for both (Cowboy really convinced me of this plus with the classic pitching, you'll give up a fair share)
Arm Stregnth--Default for both. This is personal preference. A lot of guys like -4 or -6. It's fine, but sometimes I feel too many slow roller hits.
Arm Accuracy-- -4 for both (Greatly helps with errors)
Error frequency-- +3 for me and +5 for the CPU (The CPU needs some "help" with errors)
CPU baserunning aggression-- +5
Pitch count--Max
Strike Zone--Wide
That does it for now. I am getting good results with these. Hopefully they help someone.
METER HOF SLIDER TWEAKS (FINAL)
Settings
Level--HOF
Batting View--WIDE (This was a recent change. I helps cut down on some hits for me)
Pitching View--Outfield
Fielding level--Low (A preference. I like being closer to the action)
Pitching aids--All off (Strike zone, h/c zone, cursor)
Baserunning--All manual.
Sliders (all clicks from default)
Pit count- Max
Contact-- -5 for me, default for the CPU
Power-- +2 for both
Pitch speed-- Default to +4. Whatever you comfort level is.
Baserunning aggressive-- +5
Throw Speed--Default (although -2 for both works ok)
Thow Accuracy-- -4 for both
Errors-- +3 for me and +5 for the CPU (The CPU needs some "help" with errors)
Strike Zone--WideGO CUBS
GO WILDCATS
GO 'HAWKS
GO BEARS

Re: Favre4vr\'s HOF slider tweaks
I\'m having a problem, maybe someone can help me. I have the PSP version of the game and it is fantastic, plays a great game of baseball. I was using Favre\'s sliders and the game is great, but hitting is just way too EASY once you get the hang of it. Granted I am playing with the Yankees, but half my lineup is hitting above .500. I shouldn\'t have anyone over .400. Anyone, I tried lowering contact to 0 (-10 from default) and I also lowered power to 0 (-10 from default) and it got a bit better, still haven\'t played enough with this new setting. Anyone else having this problem? I am playing on HoF difficulty with pitch speed at +4 from default. Any help would be appreciated to make the game a bit more challenging. Just so you know, the power seems ok, no one is hitting too many homeruns, it\'s just that I am averaging literally 16+ hits per game.Comment

Re: Favre4vr\'s HOF slider tweaks
I am backwards LOL, with speed lower then 14 i get 15(some times 19) hits and not alot of runs( 4 to 5 ). I am not sure if you remember my settings from last years game but i had to actually put the speed FASTER( i think it was at 19! ) in order to get realism going and a good feel at the plate.Comment

Re: Favre4vr\'s HOF slider tweaks
Thanx Favre. I fast forwarded to regular season from spring training with the contact and power sliders at 0 and it was a whole different ballgame, I couldn't hit a lick. I guess there is a HUGE difference between Spring Training games and Regular Season games. i went back to your sliders and so far, so good. I'll keep you updated.Comment
