    Re: Turn Back the Clock: 1985

    Some seriously good facework here the amount of detail is stunning, can't wait for the finished product. Work is killing me right now so haven't got to play yet but weekend is fast approaching.
    You have really given me the inspiration to take on a project like this myself now that I'm getting pretty good at doing faces after som training. The only problem is that I cant decide which year, any suggestions? mid 70s to early 90s is where I'm heading and a year that hasn't been done yet

      '79 or '82 are a couple GREAT Seasons to consider which haven't been done as of yet in either MLBTS 15 or 16!

        Nice work, Knight! I will enjoy these immensely when the set is completed! ;0)

        One quick note: Rickey Henderson batted right, threw lefty...it was flipped on the roster. ;0)
        A quick fix to be sure, but I thought I'd put it on your radar. ;0)

          Thank you.
          I'm glad you noticed and mentioned.
          I REALLY worked hard on the details...through pics and videos wherever I can find them.
          I'm very proud of my faces as well. I always try and find some aspect to give them a specific(to the person) look. Especially year specific.
          I appreciate the kind words for sure.

          As important....I've had a LOT of fun so far playing with '85. I feel like the gameplay in line with my ratings are making for some really great play.

          Again thanks.....and double thank you!...
          Exactly what I was saying......I must have played a dozen games with the Yankees and missed that each time.

            79 is definitely a strong candidate happens to be the year I was born as well. The only negative from my point of view is that my Mets had a bit of a down year

                  Re: Turn Back the Clock: 1985

                  Finished up Cincy last night.
                  But the 5 slot save restriction got me.....

                  I had Philly completed....but now I can't find them.
                  I must have overwritten the save with them on it when I imported the teams for the Post Season version.

                  So guess who I started(again!) last night!!

                  Anyway.....a lot of aging stars on the Reds club.(Parker, Cedeno, Rose, Perez, Concepcion)....a lot of no names and some very interesting young players(Eric Davis, Paul O'Neill and John Franco to name a few).

                  Played a great test game vs. the 1985 Dodgers....Soto vs. Valenzuela.
                  Star of the game...Ken Landreaux.....2 homeruns and 5 RBI!
                  Valenzuela was deadly...12 K's and just 2 hits for the Reds.
                  Ron Oester with an RBI double for the only Red run.
                  7-1 for the Dodgers.

                      Thank you....but unfortunately comes with the territory.
                      Not the worst editing loss I've ever encountered(after too many storm losses....I got a UPS backup a few years back)

                        So....which version of the 1985 playoff set are we supposed to download? There's like 5 of them with the exact same name under Knight165 in the vault right now..

                          Some guy is ****ing with the sets as I upload them...voting them down multiple times.

                          Dealing with him and whoever as we speak.

                          I just needed to have Sony get some info.

                          They are all Post Season playable.

                          Sorry for the confusion.

                            Jerry Koosman.

                            Anyone got a good windup?

                            Arroyo sort of has the weird kick...but it's kind of straight legged.

                            Thanks.

                              Really Looking forward to the final Set. Would Marichial's Windup be kind of like that? Sounds like your making very good headway? How many Teams left do you have?

                                Kind of.
                                Marichal went high with his hands on the windup.
                                Koos barely wen over head.

                                Legend 7 looks okay.

                                If you guys find anything....thanks!

                                Oh and thank you. I hope you guys enjoy them.
