MegaUpdatePatch (MUP09)

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (dangan @ Nov 12 2008, 04:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div>

does someone have all the face mods collected they could add to this mup - just to make the game pristine. For example - F.Maka and his new head, J.Hook, Berrick Barnes and so on etc. Itd be great to have them all collected from the face makers threads and put all into 1 becoz there are some awsome faces made in the rugby forum but there needs to be a collection of them all that we can just pop into this mup. cheers

Fa'atau says: This is already in operation. Some organisation is required and we need to find enough filenames to be able to add all the new faces. Once that's done, it's just a question of assigning the ID in the editor. A facepack of ALL modded faces for MUP will come with the roster update, to be released at a later stage. [/b]

Oh thats fregkn awsome!! can't wait.

Hi!
I would like to reinstall my game, to install the MUP09 properly...
But I ave created players that I don´t want to lose! How can I do it to keep them? What are the files that I have to backup?
Thanks in advanced

Fa'atau says: You dont have to re-install. You have a root directory, which the game runs from. If you copy this and add the mup09 files into it and click on the .exe in that folder, it will load the game differently to any other patches. Created players would be to do with your roster, which at the moment we have not released.

Not sure if I get this:

So I just copy the Rugby08 folder somewhere else, and then I apply the patch and it should work? Make it in the EA Sports Rugby 08 folder (not the one on my documents)

What is the root directory otherwise? The root directory can be duplicated, and if you add diferent files to it, it will load different patches. So you just make a new folder without the files and then add my files into it.
What is the roster you say you have not released? Ok, because things are getting outdated, there is a 2008-09 roster coming out and i will probably have the squads from the AI's now rather than 6 Nations. I am yet to make that roster, but its been started.

 

[feicarsinn]

just one thing the backs of the wales jerseys are a bit funny black and red with the 10 being red with no number otherwise excellent work

Fa'atau says: That's because i was waiting to see what the numbers where, ans now i know i have updated it.

 

[bando88]

Great job, thank you!!!But I found some bugs in the mini-maillots, some are wrong, in particular the Stade Francais. I don't understand a thing, when it comes out the roster for this mode? Thank you again

Fa'atau says: Mini maillots = Minikits? What bugs? The roster is being worked on now by myself, probably in the early new year, or just before xmas. I need at least 4 weeks to make it.

I just like to thank Fa'atau for causing me to wipe my laptop and lose valuable pieces of coursework due in for tomorrow due to a Trojan on the MUP 09 update!

This has been confimed by the IT techies that the file I downloaded contained a trojan!

EDIT/ Fa'atau says: I have come to the conclusion the .exe is causing the problem, which might not be a problem. It's just there to make a desktop shortcut to run the game from the folder you will make for MUP09.

 

[_ALLE88_]

when will a roster file release?

Fa'atau says: In the new year. I am trying to sort out this trojan that Cymro says i gave him in the MUP beta.

Hi fa'atau

Great work with your MUP09. I'd like to signal some little mistakes that I've found in the game:

- Picamoles for France has got black skintone but face has white skintone

- Wales doesn't have the gold jersey, but the old one, white with a blue space on back

I have updated the roster file of some International Teams as the latest test matches. If it will be helpful I will send you my roster File for MUP09..I'm also working on Viadana Rooster. tell me if it will be helpful

Last thing, Italian teams changed the match ball

this is the last one

Hope this help!

thanks again!

Fa'atau says: I am aware of some of these mistakes, and i am fixing them and updating them and also trying to fix this trojan. Please see the alert thread.

 

[bando88]

I've a problem in career mode, when in the first year I win the European Cup the game crack down and return to the desktop and it says that there's an error. It is a problem of Mod??
P.S. yeah, mini-maillots are mini-kits, sorry for the mistake. Probably I wasn't so clear as I want. There isn't a real bug, but some home mini-kits are the same of the away mini-kits, and the mini-kits of stade francais I don't know why it's the kits of the last year, not of this one. I hope I'm more clear now!!!Thank u again

Fa'atau says: Yes, the career mode has a problem, although i did not put a roster with MUP beta so you shouldnt have a problem. There is a special roster file called an 'rdf' that controls career mode. At the moment we can't get the roster to work as rdf. I have fixed and added nearly all the minikits now, and also updated little bit that is missing on CCC designs. The SF minikits are 2008-09, you should have a blue one with flowers and fleur du lys and pink multi-cloured one. I have not added the 3rd kit, (the denim with art) as you can't have more than two kits.

oi man stop being such a swine and just take it like a man. he spent so much time on this hot **** and then you sarcastically say thanks what is wrong with you?. There is no virus, the virus scanner might think it is a virus because it was an execuatable made from another computer from another country so that is why it came up with a trojan.

whats wrong with you wiping your whole computer... lol idiot there is a program called Norton Free 30 day trial where it checks all your computer for FREE for 30 days.

id be suprised if your coursework was actually good seeing your not too bright with computers... im not that smart at computers but **** happens.

Fa'atau says: I have checked and i can't find a trojan. I would imagine that the .exe that i put in the files would have triggered the trojan warning, unless the .exe is infected, but no-one else seems to have an issue at the moment, which is very good. Steynboi, don't worry i'm sure cymro didnt mean to cause any offence, so please lets keep this civil.

 

[Lukascd]

No virus problems. Cant wait for the update (with faces), is there a time scale on this or is it done when its done?

Fa'atau says: It's just a case of doing it and when it's done it's done, but i say by January 1st 2009 hopefully. Anything after that is a 'new concept' or a new kit being released or something. But it's going really well. Next up is the roster, which is a big workload with so many teams.. mainly the faces and stuff. I am finding things that i can improve but i am quickly running out of time to add these new ideas.. but all it is now really is missing kits.. 08-09 ones which i missed or have changed since and their minikits.

they both live in the uk mate and i picked up a virus too i wouldnt fly off the handle if i were you especially if it doesnt really concern you. there was also no need for that personal jibe thrown in there get a bit of cop on

I don't know if these have already been said, but the kicking marker that tells you where the ball is going to bounce is gone, and also the defensive tactic things are visible. Also when you get a penalty and you choose what option to take, its a little bit difficult to see which one is actually highlighted, only a minor thing but.

Fa'atau says: It's fixed now. Ciais, who originally was workig on MUP with me took it upon himself to edit out these graphics and did not share with me how he did it. I have fixed them now. I will look into the ball marker, i think it's back but i will check.

 

[rambler86]

Hi!

I tried to play a ERC European Cup, but when I choosed one of the teams ( tried Leicester, Saracens,Bath,London Wasp, harlequins) the game crashes to desktop.I'm sure you will try to fix this, or suggest something that I can do.

Also when I select the NZ maori the game crash.

I remember to you that if you would like I could send you my Roster File; it's updated to the last international and I worked on Viadana Rooster (the first 15 Men are really playing for that team).

I will check for other bugs or problem and I will feedback you soon.

thanks! :bravo:

PS: Any chances that in a future will be released a Magners League Patch? The game could support this modification? It should be very interesting play the Celtic Leauge!

Fa'atau says: If by ERC European Cup you mean World League, then it is bugged but not in my version. It is to do with the roster. Maori will crash too, because of the roster. Magners League patch is impossible, as there is no 10 nations mode in rugby 08, but in MUP all Magners league teams are included, including Connacht.

 

[jackblackandkyle]

I've done what you said to do in the readme of the mup09 file but when i open the mup.exe it doesn't get past the first screen..

Fa'atau says: It might be your PC. Are you sure it's the right .exe? Does the game load, and then crash? My game does not crash, so i think it's either the computer or maybe something else causing it. There is absolutely no crash issue, other than having BIGgui open the same time as tne game loads. For some reason on my system, the game hangs at the first rugby 08 screen.

 

[rambler86]

Hi fa'atau

I mean World League.When I try to start a season, choosing one of the teams playable (all From GP), the game crash.About Connacht, where I can find It? I didn't find it in MUP
Perhaps I have to reinstall the whole MUP09 update?

Thanks for answer about magners League, I Understood the problem!

Thanks for your work!

bye!

Fa'atau says: It's the rdf file causing the crash. You will find it in my documents and the rugby 08 roster folders. It's not anything in MUP. Connacht has been added since the beta. It's new to MUP 09, but not in the beta.

I think it makes the game better when there is no ball marker and no bars for scrums and mauls. The defense thing needs definite fixing however. Hurry up with the roster, its horrible playing against French teams with New Zealand players

(I also get a crash in world league at random points, but my PlayStation does the same thing with rugby 08 so i'm not too bothered) Keep up the good work

 

[soto14]

any new date for the release of this patch fixed?
