Yeah, it is pretty tedious, it's awesome to take some of the stress off with a nice exhibition game using the teams once in a while, even though I'm doing pretty bad in exhibition games lately.

Just played one and lost 4-2, I just couldn't really hit their starting pitcher, the 105 top speed and good hard breaking pitches combined with the huge strike zone made it near impossible. I got a couple solo home runs, but that was all.

I've now started preparing to do the thing with pictures to show off the rosters and uniforms of some teams. I had to record some video to be able to get the stuff and I left the recording going the whole game, I think I'll upload it just to show off how horrible my recording software is now. And it's not even old or anything... It dropped almost 1000 frames in about 20 minutes of recording, and I bet the audio got desynchronized too, I didn't check, but I remember it used to.

Yep, it does help to play with the teams and just forget about it for a bit. Although I do have to up the difficulty because I've been killing the CPU on Normal while getting used to playing the game again. I'll likely bump it up to All-Star for the next game and see how it goes.

Hopefully all works out for you on this project. Now back to work on mine. :wink:

The video is done, and I've decided I'm too lazy to try and get pictures from this one right now.



As glitched out and terrible as it is, you can still see the rosters of the teams and the uniforms in it, and nobody asked for anything else.

At least it looks good since you're not actually recording the TV

I wonder if I could choose to fix one of the two problems with this method of recording, which I would prefer. The problems being the audio getting way desynchronized (it was about a minute ahead by the end) and frames being skipped.

On the one hand, if frames were never dropped, the audio could be fixed through editing, but if the audio stayed where it was supposed to be, I would never have to edit the videos at all. It doesn't really matter, since I'm pretty sure there's no way I can fix either, but I'm just thinking out loud here, so to speak.

If I continued to record videos lazily like that and just included them as a side option along with actual game summaries in the season log, would anybody pay any attention to them (through either watching or listening, the way these are it's tough to do both at once)?

Apparently not, ah well, can't blame anyone for that.


11th team finished a day before it was planned. It was a team with a full 25 man roster, so I thought I'd just get some of it done today because it would be a pain to edit in all at once, but I got on a roll and edited the whole team in in one sitting. This is the Success Mode player team, they wear the same uniforms as the Slayers.

If I don't finish the plans for another team before Friday, then the MLB '12 team will be edited in next, and then I'll be out of plans and have to come up with more which will slow down production for as long as nobody on here is making any teams.

Was that Pokemon team ever made? If not, I could do that. It would only be 1st-3rd generation, though. And it would probably be a combination of people/Pokemon.

This. So much this.

Anyways, I'm thinking about doing a Megaman team, primarily based on the Megaman Battle Network series (if any of you have played it, and those who haven't, it's awesome!). Anyways, what are the average stats of the players for the updates? I don't wanna make my guys too good or too bad.

I really haven't even been keeping track, I've tried to keep them somewhat balanced among MLB standards, but I don't know how well I stuck to that, virtually every team I made has some kind of amazing player somewhere. So, I don't know. D is supposed to be the average letter grade.

I have the stats on all the players for teams I've made so far, they aren't really organized at all, but if you want to look at some of them, I could PM you a few teams.

You can also check out the video I posted, there's a point in it where I scroll through the rosters and I think you can see most stats of them there, just not the special abilities.

Alright, can you give me a link to the video? And at what point in it do you scroll through the rosters?

Scroll up, and you'll find the video, Anthony.
