Hey great stuff here, buddy. I have been having a heck of a time getting a consistent offensive attack from the cpu. I am using a blend of my values that a I put in the vault along with some of yours. Just 2 weeks into my Sensational 70s season and I just might have come upon the magic combination. This title is a far different animal than MLB20 for sure.

For anyone in "Armor's Army" that is getting ready to launch their 1998 single season replay.....

I am going through and cleaning up ATG's 1998 roster.

I am not touching the ratings or equipment (other than SP stamina "all plus 70" and RP stamina "all minus 40").

What I am doing is:

all team's 40-man rosters are full (with real players)

evening out the positional depth charts

the 2nd positions make sense (based on their ratings)

all players on the 40-man have at least a $720K per year contract (so their contract unhappiness doesn't "effect" their play during the season).

I am going to do the same process for ATG's 84 roster when I am finished with 98.

It's taken me about 2.5 hours to do 10 teams, so I'd expect to be done with both rosters in roughly 2 to 5 days. If anyone wants me to upload them to the vault let me know.

Once ATG release their 1990 roster, I'll do it for that one too. I think they are releasing that one in the next 10 days or so.

At that point, it will be time to dive in and start playing an 84, 90 and 98 single season replay along with a modern day franchise (every game/every pitch for all 4 of them).

I'm all in on MLBTS23.

Yes please! I was just thinking that replaying 98 would be a lot of fun! What the odds I can replicate McGwire’s 70?!

Just finished cleaning up 98....it's up in the vault (labeled: roster1998final)

There were 8 teams that ATG didn't create enough real players to fill out a full 40 man.

Those teams still had 35+ real players, so it's close enough to still play season play w/ injuries on IMO.

Cleaning up the 1984 roster next (using these same guidelines).

Thanks for "cleaning up" our projects.

@Dowie….We are all so lucky that you have graced us with your magic touch after we put in all of the actual work. FYI the 40 man rosters aren’t full so that service time doesn’t start to accumulate on the young guys thereby triggering arbitration early. And $720k is league minimum this year, so if you look all of the actual contracts from 84,90,98 etc are adjusted for inflation.

The roster was designed to work as a cohesive unit. Tinkering with ratings will throw it out of balance. Each roster we have created has been simulated, tweaked and simulated multiple times. Do us all a favor @Dowie, tweak the rosters however you like but please don’t release them as if you had anything to do with creating them.

2.5 hours on 10 teams? My god! How can you even function. I logged over 1000 hours creating rosters this year junior. Play ‘em but don’t claim any of that work as your own.

I meant no diss on your rosters.....they are AMAZING!!!!!

I've been on OS a long time, and have never had "run ins" with anybody.

I stay in my lane and stay clear of OS drama and B.S. - I don't troll.

Nothing but respect dude - If I ticked you off I am sorry.

I KNOW how much work goes into these projects.

A lot of us love to play your rosters as single seasons (one and done) instead of long-term franchises., so I don't care about the players arb clock ticking. For some of us, slight "tinkering" is necessary to get any roster to "behave" how we need it to for ONLY a 162 game season.

I know there is a method to how you put these things together, I was never trying to dispute or dismiss your projects as being "wrong".

I just "tweaked" staminas to help with the cpu's bullpen management (the cpu isn't nearly as wonky with the long reliever if all RP's stam's are below 40). Thats just my personal preference, if it came across as "gospel" or knocking any of your projects, I apologize again.

My reasoning for the $720K is that I believe (but could be wrong), that players morale will be "unhappy"if they aren't being paid at least $720K (if on 40-man).

I know there are a lot of roster stealers who claim work as their own, and get some sorta weird "high" from # of DL's, likes etc. from the vault. I promise, that's not me....never has been. I'd never steal work and pass it off as if I am some roster creator guru. If that that was the vibe I was giving off, then I guess I should have written the post better.

I apologize again man....I truly meant zero harm in "cleaning" (maybe that was the wrong word) up your amazing roster(s) project.

I've heaped tons of praise on the ATG team, and though maybe this can be chalked up as miscommunication, I won't stop supporting you guys.

Happy to take the roster out of the vault if needed.

We good?

Same energy as me going through many hours of simming and getting the stats & sliders tuned just right for franchise and then seeing Dowie getting credit for them on the Page 1 post


Question: Wouldn't shifting the CPU SP stamina slider to the right be better than manually changing the ratings of each player?

Yeah man we are good. No need to take stuff out of the vault. I just get a little pissy when we put in hundreds of hours into each roster and then people come along and clean them up and repost them. I understand you aren’t trying to take credit.

As an aside, there is no evidence to show that contract unhappiness has any impact on ratings. It seems to only impact long term morale when negotiating future contracts, which is inconsequential if you are looking to just play one season.

As for the relievers, we haven’t seen anything to out of whack in our sims. That said the majority of our projects are much further back than ‘98 and relievers were used very differently then. I think you could probably accomplish what you are trying to do with sliders though, instead of going through the process of altering the roster file.

Re: Armor & Sword/RaiderRen’s HOF Clean Screen MLB 23 Simulation Sliders (PS5)

Not only does our crew make amazing projects, we are also pretty grouchy.
Just a little chip on our shoulder. We spent a couple years making NeL projects. It was wild to see SDS implement NeL into their MLB 23 storylines so half a$$ed.

We collectively view these projects as sort of a craft or art. We take pride in developing from the ground up with minimal use of anything outside the crew.

The vaults are still the wild west, probably not going to change either.

It's all good. Everyone is good.

Moe and I are currently on our jet, flying over to Catch's with some fresh pastries to help soothe.

Re: Armor & Sword/RaiderRen’s HOF Clean Screen MLB 23 Simulation Sliders (PS5)

I'm not a big fan of RBU for ratings. I once made the mistake of talking sideways about RBU after Catch and Myers had worked hard making some of their math nerd adjustments to it to fit our 1984 project.

Shortly afterward I received a box of mushed pastries on my doorstep. I will never utter a word about it again.

What exactly is toxic about wondering why wrong users are getting credited?


It is quite sad that I have to add that I'm wondering about this in all honesty.
