What is the Ultimate Roster Project?

[Bondsfan]

I've seen a few times on this site a mention of "The Ultimate Roster Project". Can someone explain exactly what this is and when it will be finished, and if it is finished, where it can be found.

I almost feel like this is some semi-fictional thing that keeps getting its name dropped here and there in various threads but doesn't really exist. Can someone verify there is such a thing, because I sure hope there is.

It is the roster file formerly known as HypnoXxx/Llmacc at MVPlanet.It is the basis for alot of other peoples' rosters that can be found at Codejunkies.Their goal is to have a 100% complete roster done sometime soon.The roster is created using MVPedit and has alot of player pictures etc. that can't be done with the in-game editor.They also have changed alot of player ratings,batting stances,pitch types,etc.Some of those changes are "eyebrow raising" to be sure.

LoL at "eyebrow changing".

The guy doing the pitching tweaks has scouting reports on EVERY guy, written proof of the work he is doing. He is actually done all of the pitching tweaks, and they are just finishing up on the minor leagues. It is due out sometime this week or weekend.

*waits ofr Badgun, funkydelic, etc. to come into thread and tell us all why editting players is wrong even with valid scouting reports and no one playing favorites on a project that is encompassing about 5-6 people now*

Re: What is the Ultimate Roster Project?

I recently downloaded URP (Ultimate Roster Project for those of you scoring at home ) version 1.0 and it is amazing!!!

While it did come out last month, it's amazing to think of all they did! They imported players and pics of current players from mvp 2003 and 2004! Most of the minors have the black face...no made up face!!

It's going to great when it comes out. There is also a topic of it up at www.mvpmods.com

Re: What is the Ultimate Roster Project?

Thanks for all the great info. So where do I go to download this URP? MVPlanet, MVPMODS, Codejunkies?

Didn't changing all the players ratings screw with their salaries? I mean, even changing a players name in the minors will change their salary from a minor league salary to one that is in the millions. I'm just wondering how they did that.

Changes are made in MVPEdit. Which doesn't change their salaries. You can get it off either MVPmods (PC) or MVPlanet (xbox/ps2)

I'm also wondering where I can download the already released URP, and of course where I'll be able to download the final one once it comes out. Thanks for any help.

Re: What is the Ultimate Roster Project?

Hey guys--

I'm assuming that I get the URP at MVPlanet so I'm set there. I noticed that some of their rosters require a modded-Xbox. Does anyone know if the URP will? Version 1.0 doesn't look like it does but I want to make sure since I'm waiting on this one before I get started with a dynasty. Any help would be great...

Re: What is the Ultimate Roster Project?

Nope. No modded xbox needed for the rosters there. I downloaded the latest URP roster (which is about a month old or so, but is much better than the EA roster updates in the past) and I had no problem getting the roster to work.

Someone mentioned the use of MVP Edit that allows the roster editors to edit the rosters without the salary being effected. Is this a program that is available to any of us to download. Do we just take a roster file from our xbox via action replay right to our computer and then load it up into this editor? I know there was a similar editor for several of the 2K games.

This is the 1st time I have said anything on the pitching tweaks

The problem with the pitching tweaks is, sure it works fine when you sim a season or two, but what if you play the games?

With the big unit before any tweaks if you simmed a season the SO totals were low, but if you played the game the SO were right on track

most people play the game I believe, these rosters will be great for those who sim their seasons

I'm pretty sure the pitching tweaks are for playing the games, as well. I have the beta version for testing, and I know all of the pitchers have their updated pitches that I see in real life.

How is it just for guys who sim? I have had no issues so far. I especially like using guys like Todd Williams and Steve Reed who naturally have movement on their 4-seam fastball, and they have movement now ni the game.
