    Jedi Bats

    Has anyone else seen this? If the lighting is just right, some players bats will look like they glow when you are pitching to them. I have tried to get a screen shot of this, but it only seems to happen in the pitching view. It is kind of funny seeing the batter swinging around a light stick. I don't thing this is a bug, just an artifact of the software deaing with reflections.

    I made a post of that finding and your right. I mean it's so stupid for a baseball game but looks way cool at night and you get the halo effect around the bat.

        Is it the blue bats? I couldn't figure out which color creates the effect. Glowing bats would be a good "cheat" like the giant heads.

          The batter's bat glows red when he's hitting during a hot streak. Blue, when he's cold.

              Re: Jedi Bats

              There are, I believe 9 bats to choose from. The jedi bat is bat "0". I'm currently going through all the teams and replacing them along with the absolutely horrid attributes they have assigned/not assigned to many of the players.

              You can manually edit this bat out of the game if you see someone is using it.

                Jim, do you have a guesstimated date of when you might be finished with your project? Just curious as i'm about to start my season. Thanx.

                  Well, I'm it's going to be at least another week, I think. Commissioner I understand has put out a good roster update if you are anxious to start. It's my understand he renamed ALL the fake players. I'm not going to do that this year as it is WAY too time consuming. I'm trying to get the 40 man rosters down and throw the other fake guys into the FA list. Actually I started doing this so I will have something for "winter ball" after I finish my season with The Show. I can sit and spit and cuss at KUSH about all the crappy things they overlooked in this game.

                  I swear, I don't know how people get good stats if they sim with some of the things I'm seeing in the attributes, mostly with the pitchers and hitting. It looks like nobody on the dev team even took a look at their attributes as many of them have better looking attributes that actual hitters in the game, even clutch hitting ratings that are really high. Just amazing letting this go by two years in a row.It's a lot of work.

                  I'm getting rid of those stupid squat stances that they use so much and those jedi bats. Ugh, nothing like seeing Clay Hensley coming up and he's down in that squat stance wiggling his bat all over the place, ugh. I don't know if the pitchers field everything hit around them, but it was the same last year, RANGE and ANTICIPATION too high, lowering those because that's how the vacuum fielding by the pitchers was fixed last year.

                  Anyway, check out Commish's job if you're ready for something right now. Seems it's getting good feedback. I should have just downloaded his and then did my thing, but I don't have a transfer kit and there are no stores out here in the desert that carry them (94 degrees today). I'll probably go up to SAn Diego and pick one up when I finish this project.

                    hilarious.

                    Aside from that, i'm loving this game. Being it's my 1st year playing it...I'm having more fun than i had with MVP the last 3 years.

                      No it is hot and cold streaks. If you would read any article on the game you would know these things.

                        I'm not sure about that. I've never seen that in any article. I could be wrong, but I don't recall reading the bats would change color depending on a player being hot/cold. Seems just too arcadey to me.

                        Not to mention that the light colored bats turn a very bright glowing white at the right time of day. That's not hot or cold.
