Yea, everything was working fine for me too, but about 12 games into my Franchise, I finally got the no Replays glitch, and when I went to view things in the vault, all replays only had one player hitting and no one on the field. The ball would get hit and then jiggle around to wherever it was hit.

The only thing different I did last night was I kept pressing X at the end of the game to skip through stuff since I was tired. I normally just listen to the whole thing and let it run on its own.

I decided not to save that franchise game because of it, plus it was my excuse for not saving a game where I got pounded 8-1, lol.

I'm going to play today, and hopefully the replays will be back to normal.

The original game had no game for the Dodgers-Padres on April 7 when in reality they did have a game. It, however, had a game scheduled on October 1 between the two teams that is not on the real schedule.

So the "no replays glitch" only occurs AFTER the game is over? Or are we talking about DURING game? I"m confused here.

I think both. There are supposed to be replays done for each inning, as well as post game. People have been mentioning problems with both set of replays. A forthcoming patch is supposed to fix the problem.

# 1085 scooteristkai @ 05/02/09 01:27 PM

Only after the game from my understanding. However, I just finished a ST game and had no problems with the highlights. Deleted everything The Show related on my HDD, downloaded the patch and started a new franchise.

Somebody,
I never downloaded anyone's updated rosters or any of that jazz, and Im 2/3rds of the way through a franchise while just playing the game as it was. If i download this patch will I have crashing problems and have to start my franchise over?

Don't even chance it. Just keep enjoying the game.

# 1089 DrUrsus @ 05/02/09 02:41 PM

I got my replays back this time by just not pressing X at all at the end of the game and letting the announcers talk the whole time and the game go through its whole spiel. Then everything was in the vault too as it should be.

I concur. If you're happy and having fun, why mess with it?

# 1091 JSin51 @ 05/02/09 02:48 PM

Because I also want to play RTTS, which I've been holding off on until the patch that fixed the Sept. 14th glitch got released. I was just wondering if I should sim to the end of my franchise and play the playoff games (assuming the ChiSox maintain their lead in the central) before I DL the patch.

Has it been confirmed that only people who downloaded roster updates had the RTTS glitch? Do I not even need the patch for RTTS issues if i didn't download a roster?

At the very least, wait until you get into your second season of franchise.

If I delete all my game files install the patch, load in new rosters will I have problems ? I have a franchise but only a few games in so will start again if this will prevent problems.

Has this now been confirmed as what you need to do ?

From everything I've read, you're better off starting fresh, it's unfortunate but the best way to go.

# 1095 callmetaternuts @ 05/02/09 04:09 PM

Just started my new franchise. I lost (damnit), but i had replays, flashbacks, end of game replays and all that. And I didnt hit a HR, but scored 3 runs. Was nice. Hopefully it stays this way.

I have found (so far) if I don't press X at all during the end of the game stuff, it works, otherwise it does not. You may also want to avoid pressing x when a highlight appears in-game, but I am not sure about that one.
I have only NOT gotten replays 1 time out of 12 or so games. This all may have been coincidence as well, but the one time I did not get my replays, this is what I did "wrong".

Any thoughts on that guys? Have you tried not pressing X in the aformentioned situations? Does it make a difference?

# 1097 scooteristkai @ 05/02/09 04:43 PM

Deleted all The Show related files on my HDD, downloaded the patch installed latest SCEA Rosters. My first ST game I had no problems with End of Game Highlights at all. This is with pressing X during cutscenes.

Well I have finally come to the realization I am probably going to have to start my season and RTTS over.

Very disappointed, to say the least. Still I get more enjoyment out of this baseball game than I do any other sports game I have ever played.

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.

# 1099 Revolution42 @ 05/02/09 04:55 PM

Ok....I need some clarifications before I begin a Franchise and want to be sure I don't make a mistake......I Download the patch from SportsConnect.... is this done automatic when I log into SC? Or is more required? After downloading / installing patch, can I then load Knights roster and begin a Franchise with no stats glitches etc? I have only used SC one time and have never used a patch so this is all new to me...any suggestions and info will be and is greatly appreciated. My goal is to play in Franchise with no stats glitch or roster hangups. Thanks for any help...

# 1100 ferriscj24 @ 05/02/09 04:57 PM

I deleted everything on my HDD as well. Re-installed The Show, downloaded that patch, then when I attempted to log in to SportsConnect, I immediately crashed to the XMB. Re-started the game, and haven't crashed since...yet.

I played a full exhibition game, with replays and flashbacks, but there were no end of game highlights. Weird.
