You use classic with 1/1?

Yes, sir. That is correct.

Thought I'd liven up the thread with some interesting developments....

1. As far as the sliders go, I think we've gotten them as close to perfect as we can, from statistical and playability standpoints. The only two sliders that I will be changing in the first post will be the Human Foul Frequency (5) and Outfielder Arm Strength (4). These will be more preference changes than anything. Feel free to leave them if you are satisfied with the values that they are currently set at.

2. I've become intrigued with the hybrid roster set that Willard will be coming out with. I've been currently testing the sliders with Redsfan's hybrid set that he released earlier this week, which to my understanding, was based on the spreadsheet that Willard was using for his project that has since been locked. This has provided me with a "sneak preview" of how the rosters will look when Willard eventually releases his set. As you guys already know, I'm all about accurate stats, especially in franchise mode, so any way that I can achieve more realistic playability, whether through rosters or sliders, I am all for it.

For that reason, I will begin developing a slider set that works in conjunction with the Willard's hybrid set, and I will set up another franchise with that roster once it is released. For now, I will be back to testing. For those that are interested, nothing will change as far as my approach to making this set. It will still have the same basis of accurate strike percentages. I've played about 7 games over the weekend, all with Redsfan's hybrid set, and for the most part, the sliders still play EXTREMELY well. The main thing is, the strike percentages are still intact, so there aren't any changes needed there. Offensively is where there will need to be some adjustments made. I've noticed a huge offensive surge on the human side, and a lack of offense on the CPU side. Both sides are seeing a ton of extra base hits, which will need to be adjusted. As far as the other facets of the game, I don't foresee many changes being needed. I will begin logging stats for my test games with the hybrid set, but I will not clog the thread with them, to avoid confusion.

Looking forward to getting back in the lab!!! Anybody that's interested in helping, please let me know.

Stay tuned....

Ils/mizzou24's roster will be better imo

Care to elaborate?

The reason why I'm using Redsfan's roster is because he's using the same rating system as Willard, which is the roster I will be using once I actually start my franchise. Slider sets require a lot of testing, and while I don't mind playing test games, I want to make sure that they actually are contributing to a final set....

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

So, i have seen that you have set the final sliders for this year.
These sliders you will be use with the Redsfan's hybrid roster ?

(i apologize, a question: what is the different between osfm roster and the hybrid roster ? and,overall, what it means "hybrid roster", sorry, but i don't really know what it means "hybrid")

I understand that you are looking for the sliders almost perfect, they can make the experience of the franchise, as truthful as possible in the statistics. What comes to my mind though is: but you Americans when begin a franchise, considered that are 162 matches of Regular Season ? ehehehehe, you think that if I can play one match at day, it's all the better .

Now that you have finalized the sliders, I see myself almost forced to start over my franchise, since I am driven by curiosity to play with yours

Just don't want to start any beef over rosters but seen some of the ratings that they used and it just doesn't make sense and seen some of the ratings on il/mizzou24's roster and they are like spot on accurate, but that's my opinion if that's what you want to go with that's fine too good luck with your season and thx for the sliders

Good to know, but I'm confused on where the comparison is coming between the two rosters, since Willard hasn't even released them yet?

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

Comparison is with the ratings they used on the combined osfm and going back to what they used last year

Good evening (in Italy it's 10:16 pm) mates.
I'm playing from 3 days with sliders final.
Well.......what can i say......WOW !
I played 3 exhibition match.......until now i can say that sliders works very well. Sorry, i have not stats or datas. But believe me, i can say, until proven otherwise, that these sliders works.......and remember that i have a different gameplay options compared to Ibteme

soon new news

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

Redsfan's roster is based off last years Hybrid, I believe. Willard and WTNY updated and tweaked the spreadsheet after taking it down, so I'd hold off and see what Willard comes out with. It will be different than Redsfan's roster project.

Hey itbeme23, definitely gonna give these sliders a try because i've been playing all star default and every game is 1-0, 2-1, with very few hits for either side. quick question, are u still getting good HR numbers with HUM power at 4? just curious....

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

New patch released today... Hopefully didn't break anything with ur sliders... Hoping to get some games in soon.

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

Ibteme, dear mentor ,
I'm going to officially announce that I am going to start the Franchise mod with the Los Angeles Dodgers, using your sliders, with the roster of Redfan. I will report all datas on the spreadsheet of Tony. Later i will report every 10/15 match my stats.

LET'S GO DODGERS !!!! :wink::wink::wink:

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

I actually played all of last year with Classic and I do agree it is way more realistic and I enjoy it very much. I plan on playing with these sliders and Classic pitching regularly in my Franchise.

I just miss the meter because it makes me feel like I'm influencing the game. I realize that sometimes that might cause me to demolish the opposition but I was thinking along the lines of what you suggested with zeroing out the control/consistency and maybe trying to bump up one difficulty on my pitching.. I just want to see if meter pitching can somehow be realistic just like classic.

They can improve classic pitching by having the user hold the X button until the pitcher's release point instead of just press and watch.

Re: Itbeme23 Sliders - Vet Hitting/A.S. Classic Pitching Emphasis on Accurate Strike

I have played a large number of games with these sliders and it fixes some issues for sure but it causes a bunch more. The AI isn't scoring runs that should be scored, what I mean by this is that the HUM fielders arm strength is a complete joke. Guys struggle to make it to the infield let alone the cut off man from the warning track. The number of runs scored might make sense but the way in which they get these runs is so frustrating because they are run that would never be scored in an actual game.
