MPV Baseball 2004 Cheat Codes: ------------ Submitted by: conner54 Cheap created players: ---------------------- Create a player with all desired information. Leave his attributes exactly as is. Then, go to "Free Agents". Sign that player to a long cheap contract. Then, go to create/edit again and change the player's attributes to make him perfect. To get cheap players in dynasty mode, do not fill up his stats -- he will take really low offers in money if you do not do this. After you put him on your team, go back to your roster and fill them all up. It will not raise their salary. All MVP rewards: ---------------- Select the "Create A Player" option. Create a player named nick paterson. Big hitter: ----------- Select the "Create A Player" option. Create a player named "keegan paterson", "jacob paterson", or "isaiah paterson" (case-sensitive). The player will have a very large bat. He will hit a home run or a hard line drive every time you make contact, no matter what his stats. Bad hitter: ----------- Select the "Create A Player" option. Create a player named erik kiss (case-sensitive). The player will have a skinny bat that will break every time and send a little dribbler to the pitcher for a sure out. Also, you cannot bunt with him; it will just go foul. Huge CAP points: ---------------- Select the "Create A Player" option. Create a player named john prosen (case-sensitive) to get a large amount of CAP points in dynasty mode. No CAP arm or leg restrictions: ------------------------------- Select the "Create A Player" option. Create a player named kenny lee (case-sensitive) to change the size of a created player's arms or legs as much as desired. MVP points: ----------- After completing various goals, you will get a message stating that you have earned MVP Points. Enter the "MVP Rewards Checklist" screen in "My MVP" to check how many points you have earned, and how many are needed to unlock the various bonuses. You will earn twice as many MVP Points under the Pro difficulty setting, three times as many under the All-Star difficulty setting, and four times as many under the MVP difficulty setting. Also, MVP points are not awarded when games are simulated. The classic players that are unlocked will begin at age 30 and will age and retire like other players. Fenway Park scoreboard: ----------------------- When playing a game at at Fenway Park, the hand automated scoreboard on the Greenmonster in left field does not have the score of the game, who the Red Sox are playing, who is pitching, the batter's name, the balls, strikes, and outs, and the hit and error lights like it usually does. Getting trades: --------------- When in dynasty mode, if the trade you want keeps getting rejected use the following trick. When this happens, back out until you get to the main screen for the dynasty mode and go to "Options". Once in the "Options" screen, select the first choice and scroll down until you see the "Unfair Trades" option. Turn this option on, then go back and get the trade you wanted. Note: If you want more money in your bank, make sure the trade is somewhat even.

Simply go to Roster Management and choose Jim Dowd (he's easy to find: he's the best player on the Giants, and one of the best players in the game). Edit the player's name to "Barry Bonds", his number to 25 and his hand to lefty. Edit his features to appear less like a random white guy and more like the famous slugger. Unlimited MVP points: --------------------- Select dynasty mode and choose the Yankees. Turn off injuries, trades, rain outs, and budget. Set the difficulty on MVP. Simulate to the last game of each month. On that game, choose to simulate it (not quick sim; choose "Play" then "Sim"). Stop the simulation at the top of the ninth inning and choose to manage the remainder of the game. Do this for every month for the rest of the season. When the season ends, and you see "Advance To Playoffs", save the dynasty. Then, choose "Advance To Playoffs". Each time it will show your points earned.(about 13,000 to 17,000). Do not save after this. Exit dynasty mode, then keep re-entering and choosing "Advance To Playoffs". Each time you do this, you will get that same MVP point amount put into your profile. Getting good players: --------------------- * If you start a dynasty and choose "Fantasy Draft", put the order as you first. Next, set difficulty level to "Rookie". Then, enter the draft and select either Jon Dowd (a.k.a. Barry Bonds) or Albert Pujols. Once you get to your next pick, there should be either A-Rod, Prior, or Mulder at the top of he list. Note: If you want A-Rod or Prior, this trick works about 40% of the time. If you want Mulder, this trick usually works about 60% of the time. * To get a very good batting order start out with any team. Next, go to the rosters and into create a new player with ordinary stats at first base. Sign him and go into edit player screen. Edit him to the maximum points. Go into transactions and get whoever desired. Note: This trick only works on one player a time.
