Trying to figure out why the post game highlights aren't showing.....

I deleted the game utility folder like Dr Ursus said to do.

So the game and patch had to be reloaded. It did not work.

Here's what I noticed.....

At some point during the game, around the 7th inning, the replay vault stops recording. Its says NONE for replays in the 7th, 8th and 9th inning.

At that point, you will not see any post game highlights. If you go into the replay vault in the 4th inning for example, you can review the highlites. Once it stops recording highlited in the 7th inning, the only highlite you will see at the end of the game is the last play with no fielders and sometimes no batter on the field.

Here's the other thing, If I play 3 innings or so and then fast forward to the 9th and play the 9th inning, I do get Post game High Lites.

So its almost as if the replay vault is "running out of space".

Is there any way to make sure Russell or someone sees this because it will probably just get muddled up inbetween a host of bickering, but I think it may help them isolate this problem.

Thanks.

No one could say with any confidence within two days of the patch and the information given is so inconsistent. Overall it appears people who were continuing pre patch franchises are having the most problems. Russell mentioned releasing an announcement today- wait for that.

thanks for the response fist and you could PM him the info. But I do believe that he'll read it because he stated that he read the entire thread yesterday, so I have no reason to believe that when he hops back on that he won't do the same this time around.

I was wondering if there have been any reports of post patch issues in SEASON mode. I have read through most of this thread

and from what I can gather the problems (crashes) seem to be happening in Franchise & RTTS modes. Has anybody heard of any of these post patch problems while in SEASON mode?

# 605 EWRMETS @ 04/29/09 09:58 AM

Since this is also impressions, I started a Yankees (ugh) franchise last night and was able to draw 4 walks and got hit by two pitches. CC wasn't perfect but pitched a strong 7 innings, giving up 2 runs to leave with a 3-2 lead. I left way too many guys on base. Jose Veras and Damaso Marte proceed to blow the lead in the 8th and I lose. Must be the "comeback" code. I love this game.

I started a new franchise yesterday with Ridins rosters, and I got post-game highlights. I only played one game, but at least everything worked fine for that game.

Maybe the swine flu virus is more powerful than we thought....take the patch to the hospital.....STAT!!!!

For what it's worth, I've played both my pre-patch franchise and started a new franchise with Knight and Friends rosters and haven't had any problems with either. I get post game highlights, no crashing or any of the other issues some have seen. Knock on wood!!!

I should have been more clear. And yes, my comparison was extreme but that's all that's happening around here right now. People are frustrated and blowing things out of proportion and that includes me. It's time to step away for a bit.

No worries man. Take care.

Yeah the reason I joined here, is because there is less bickering and bs talk. I rarely see anyone flame another and most people on OS have been quick and helpful with gameplay. I greatly appreciate everyone on here that has helped so far. Even with the patch and other chise issues, I love this game and am gonna truck on to start a new season post patch. I have been on ign and earosters and they are similiar. Too many people worried about flaming one another and really no help to the game industry. This site has changed my mind completly and I hope I can one day help another or add good perspective to someone at OS.
I have been busy with work, eidting, and my 1.5 yr old son to really update my arena etc. I look forward to doing so, so any lookers I apologize for the lack of information I provided of myself. I will update!
Tks again all

Everyone here wants an answer to most of the questions posed, but in no way do you deserve an answer here at OS. Never. If you have an issue with the way a company is handling something, take it up with the company. I'd hate to lose the developer's presence because somehow a place where they used to hang out and talk about a game a large majority of us enjoy playing became a venue for consumer backlash when they felt they had been wronged.

Your 100 % correct Pared, and if you folks have to complain, I was always taught that you get more with honey then vingear. Hop

# 612 skeem @ 04/29/09 11:42 AM

All those post patch "issues" seem to be an isolated problem. I downloaded the patch and not having any of these issues. I've played about 5 games since the patch.

Go to a player card and check stats...Glavine, A-Rod, Swsher, TEX, Smoltz, Griffey, Vlad are big ones....Career stats will be off depending on what roster you use. for some A-ROD has 0 hrs others he has 220..

It was a patch, not a major version release.

I think it's circle. You can hit circle on the Manage Roster Screen on any player and their card comes up.
