Operation Sports Full Minors 2012 Roster - Spring Training Edition Available Now

07:57 PM - April 3, 2012 by Knight165

Okay guys...

Here is the Spring Training version of the Operation Sports Full Minors for 2012, for MLB 12 The Show.

This initial set looks really tight... and there is some FANTASTIC work done on these. Dare I say... the best set yet.

There are too many to thank for this... and I will come back and fill out this post with all those involved, as I know you guys want to get your hands on these and start your franchises.

Here is the link for the OSFM ST v.1

They will be up in the Vault momentarily...

File name: O.S.F.M. SPRING

Thanks for all your patience... and most of all enjoy!!!

I just want to thank some people... and I have to say... this community is truly exceptional. Operation Sports is simply the best run website I visit. Bar none... and the members that frequent here are one of the main reasons. Good people attract other good people.

In no particular order... I really need to thank all of the people involved in the making of this set... as this is a true community effort and without all of these guys, it would make the process much harder and much, much longer.

Thanks to:

I'd like to thank ksig24 for his insight and input into the potential base for the set...

... and last but CERTAINLY not least...
RidinDwnKingsley...

Without his TREMENDOUS work and the immense amount of time that he puts into these rosters... they would have taken 3 times as long to do.

I CANNOT say enough about this, as his dedication and sheer bulldog mentality to get it done, means so much to these.

Also to Steve... the owner of O.S. and the mods on here who make it easy to keep the threads in order and viable to use in conjunction with the set.

...and of course thanks to the entire O.S. community for all the input that you guys have been putting into these for YEARS!

THANK YOU!

Guys.....a lot of people have requested to give back in response to these rosters. They offer thanks and several have offered money.
I suggest charities if you really want to do something as a thanks to these.

My suggested charities....The N.Y.C. FireFighters Burn Center....Wounded Warriors....or .....http://www.extra-life.org/

Thank you!

Looks like Francisco Cervelli was moved to AAA Scranton while the Yanks traded George Kontos to the Giants for Chris Stewart.

Stewart is slated to be the backup catcher to Russel Martin.

A link to that thread is in post 44, if I remember correctly.

Or are we basically on our own this year. Just download the roster, start a chise and do what you want? Is the CPU logic fixed this year? Or, of course, is there going to be a franchise file coming soon? Sorry if these have been answered in the thread but it'll be really difficult to go through 36 pages to find the answers.

That's how the game does the contracts for players under team control (a player's first 2-3 years in the league) or going through arbitration (3-4 years depending on service time and performance). Technically, these players are all on 1 year contracts.

Thank you for all the hard work from all people associated with bringing this awesome roster to the game. The Show should give each and everyone of you a FAT check!

Can someone just give me a straight answer because I cannot find one: what are the benefits (if any) for waiting for the Opening Day rosters? Are the Opening Day rosters just the same as the Spring Training, except the pitching rotation, and lineups are correct? And the players who aren't in MLB in correct places (triple-A, double-A)?

# 368 ZAN @ 04/04/12 07:23 PM

Could someone post a screenshot of the Bryce Harper face. I was in awe last night at it's realism. It's so good it's scary.

I can't seem to find it. I looked at post 44 and a few pages before and after it, and don't see it. Would you be kind enough to direct me?

Also, does this mean that we can just apply the instructions from last year to this year's franchise mode with these rosters?

I know, I meant I posted both pictures for a side-by side comparison in the Vita impressions thread.

Can't be helped really, with the Vita CAP creation options as they are. You don't have the face-shaping options with the analog sticks for Vita like you do on PS3, that's mainly why they don't look as good.

# 375 ZAN @ 04/04/12 07:33 PM

I downloaded it last night while the GF was on her laptop. I pulled up Harper to see how real he looked and started chuckling...

My GF, who doesnt watch baseball, looked at his face and goes "WOW HE LOOKS REAL"....I pulled up a real photo on my iphone and asked her to compare...and she goes "wow...whoever made him needs to work for whatever company makes this game."

Great job to all involved.

You will likely have to use the workaround by dropping players from the 40 man roster before you end spring training. I'm sure someone will have all the necessary info for you. And I believe that Hustlin Howl will be doing this for everyone and uploading that roster, so all you will have to do is put the players back on the 40 man.

Well, all the oversights will be fixed. All the transactions taking place today and tomorrow will be in. The 40 man rosters, lineups, and rotations will be correct.

And also, the base for this roster was from the first update way back in March. I believe they will release the Opening Day set based off of the first update of the year or the latest update. Which may have some pitch corrections done by SCEA and may have added the correct Managers to the MLB teams with "fake" managers.

Personally, most should wait for the opening day set. Unless you don't need everything exact. The first set is named spring because it's more or less a Beta test.

A giant thank you to everyone who helped work on these! Your hard work is much appreciated! Let the 'chise's begin!

# 378 Joey @ 04/04/12 07:46 PM

Here you go, should work same as last year.

Thank you very much!

Can't wait for the Opening Day set to drop so I can start my chise.

Oh okay, thanks. Guess I'll be using the ST rosters for exhibition games for now and the OD ones for my season when they come out.
