Hence the mini-patch.

Once you clean everything off using the steps I gave you, you will be back to "out of the box" (ie...brand new game). Once you start the game, it will say "Update 1.06 available" (or something thereabouts. Accept the update, then let it do its thing. Then the game will start. You will then have the 6-7 minute wait while it installs 3GB of MLB 09 The Show information to your HDD again. Then you are patched and ready.

Secondly....When you patch the game, you can ONLY use Knight's roster(s) Version 4-6. Versions 1-3 are for PRE-PATCH ONLY!!!!

And finally, you are set and ready to begin a franchise. The "mini-patch" is only going to fix the replay issue, and Russell from SCEA gave us the go ahead that the "mini-patch" will NOT affect franchises that have already been started AFTER the 1.06 patch was installed.

You should be ALL SET!

I still have Knight's first 3 versions on my PS3, but I have downloaded the patch. You are saying only use versions 4-6 from now on?

From Knight:

v1-v2 and v3(I have to re-upload for Millennium) will work with no patch

v4-v5 and v6 will only work with a patched version of the game. Any roster that is A. new off of the vault or SCEA updates won't work in an unpatched game even if someone else puts it on a download source for you other than SCEA or the Vault now or B. Has been on a PS3 that has been patched.(the patched game adds some files to the roster saves and once added those rosters will become invalid on unpatched games)
Good news though....I will take v2 and v3 and add Struts update and have those available for those guys that don't patch.

Not to mention on Tuesday I have to lay several people off, so this is really small potatoes on my list of major league bummers. When the replay glitch patch comes out, I'll start a new season. Just have to figure out which team. Or maybe I'l use a fantasy draft. In the meantime I'll just play NFL Head Coach.

That sucks bro. Good luck with that. That is some heavy stuff.

I don't understand. Unless Knight redid the entire file on a newer base file, isn't all his versions based on the same base file?
So if V1 thru 6 are off the same base how can some be pre patch only and some be post patch. The only thing he could have changed is the information on the file not the structure of the file. If someone could go into more detail how some are pre and some are post i would appreciate it.

I'm pretty sure that he's saying v1-v3 will work with OR without the patch while v4-v6 will only work with the patch.

Then that would make sense based on the game adding files post patch (from what i heard).

Here is the deal fellas.

Once you patch your game...any roster you put in the game...gets updated by the patched version of the game.
THAT particular roster will then no longer be a valid save for a non patched version of the game.

v1-v2 and v3 of my rosters were made and uploaded to sendspace from a non-patched machine.....therefore they will
A. Work in a non-patched version of the game
B. Work in a patched version of the game(because once you load it....the game updates it...this is for the vault)

But if you download from those links....you will always be able to use them in a non-patched game(plus I have them saved for the future ...just in case)

v4-v5 and v6 were updated on my machine that has the patch(at the time I didn't know (strike two Kolbe )...that it would change the structure)...

HOWEVER....I will make non-patched versions of those files if the need arises.

SCEA is conspiring to make me blind!
