The computer voice that says at bat so & so or New York beat Denver 4 to 2.

PS Just noticed I'm not getting the crack of the bat either. Sounds and voice are checked.
I restarted the game neither are working.

Odd, Sam and the other sounds are all working for me throughout all the patches.

Pre 1.29 when on the "contract status report" the page would refresh everytime it got the focus. So if you clicked a player card and ended up making a trade of a player who was on the last yr of his contract it would come back into that screen with that player removed.

It seems to have stopped with 1.29. Anyone elese report the same thing?

When I am in contract extension time, if I view the Team Statistics page and then click on a column (such as BA or HR), the game flips over to the Contract Summary page (where you see the years/salary)

Odd, I can't reproduce that one on my system with 1.30.

Ok, this is at the end of the season, after the playoffs.

ah, maybe that has something to do with it.

Indeed.  Here's how to replicate it, because this is the only way that it happens.  I just checked.

End of season (after WS).  Go to HOME page (not Front Office).  Click in the lower left for the 'Contract Status Report' and it will take you to that screen for team reports.  Now click out of that and go to Team Statistics.  Or go to some other pages like Transactions.  Once you try to select something on one of those pages, it will boot you back to 'Contract Status Report'.  Just reporting it does this - it might be to make sure the player doesn't get sidetracked and lose sight of this opportunity.

The reason I say that is because if you fire the game up (at this same point in the season with that 'Contract Status Report' link available on the HOME page) and go to the Team Reports, then select Contract Status Report, you can then properly go to other pages such as the Team Statistics page and view that normally.

So it only happens if you click that Contract Status Report link on that HOME page.  Otherwise, no issues.

Seconding Abev's comment about the failure of the Contract Summary Report page to refresh after an extension.  I have to shift to another page and then come back to the Summary Report page for it to be updated.

Don't think there is anything to do about this one in this version, but I thought it was interesting.

I don't see it.

Anyhow, that 12B display looks poor.  I would think 1Db or 1Tr would look better, but that's me.  I just think it looks too much like 12 B.

Duck - Chaney had so many stats to display that it pushed all of them off the window to the right.

Right - here I was concentrating on Brown's line.

Image needs to be enlarged and location altered.  I don't think I'd want to jam that text any further in.  I'll see if I can do it this weekend.

But what if he also had a triple?  And/or a SB?  Maybe Shaun has to prioritize how many total stats get displayed?

Slight adjustment here. While IN Season it doesnt refresh. But at the END of the season it does refresh. I was signing players at the trade deadline and no refresh. I was signing players at the end of the season and when it got back the focus it would refresh.

Found the smallest of things, quite by accident actually and it really doesn't add up to much but....

I had a fast runner on 1st and the pitcher up to bat. I forgot to pinch hit before I stole 2nd so the player steals 2nd and the pitcher has a 0-1 count. Then I pinch hit for the pitcher and the guy gets a single but the message said that the pitcher got the hit not the PH.

The good thing is that the PH's name showed up at 1st and his stats were adjusted, not the pitcher's.

Just the play by play message did not announce the PH hitting for the pitcher or that he got a hit. I have not tried this again to verify but it seems that pinch hitting for someone after an established count, the message does not reflect the hitting change.

I told you it wasn't much![>:]      [:D]

Yep, it's the smallest of bugs, but a bug none-the-less. Thanks JReb!

That Contract Summary Report page has weird conduct regardless.

I reported that one in the Puresim Baseball Support forum on 6/10 under the heading Odd things happening when batter is pinch hit for after steal attempt. Shaun replied on 6/17 that it was a tricky one and he hadn't been able to track it down yet.

Turned the game on yesterday and every thing is working fine now. Strange.......
Don

hmmm - was your volume off when it wasn't working? [:D]

Nope, everything that should be check marked was checked, I had the crowd sounds, no crack of the bat, no mircosoft Sam and no fireworks. I guess it was just one weird glich, from what I don't have a clue. But, it is working now and thats all that counts. [:D]
