- This is info regarding fixes made to Tony2
- for the version1.3 patch
-
- 1. PROBLEM: Double-switch option does not work properly.
-
- PROBLEM FIXED: This problem has been adressed and can now be done
- successfully. When inside a game, you can press F7 or use the menu
- "HELP" button. There are two ways to perform the double-switch.
- They are listed both in the help function and below.
-
- DBL SWITCH: in a non-designated hitter league, a manager
- will sometimes replace a pitcher and a fielder at the
- same time so he can swap their positions in the batting
- order. This is called a double switch, and is usually
- done when the pitcher being taken out would be coming to
- bat the next time the team gets up. There are two ways to
- use double switch in Tony 2.
-
- 1. When the pitcher is up to bat, use a pinch hitter. When
- the inning is over, go to the bullpen and replace the
- pinch hitter with a new pitcher. Select the DOUBLE
- SWITCH button. Place the hitter anywhere you want in
- the defense. Of course, the batting order will change,
- and the pitcher's spot will swap with the selected
- defensive position of the pinch hitter.
- 2. If your team is in the field, playing defense, you can
- activate the double switch by using a relief pitcher. In
- the bullpen screen, put in a relief pitcher as usual.
- Select the DOUBLE SWITCH button. Take a player off the
- bench and substitute him into a field position. The
- pitcher's place in the batting order will swap with that
- of the new fielder's position. If you want to keep the
- original fielder in the game, or even the original
- pitcher, you are free to make any substitutions at
- this time.
-
- 2. PROBLEM: Injuries seem to occur outside of the game and are inconsistant.
-
- PROBLEM FIXED: When players become injured, they will stay injured
- for the proper duration (not more, not less). Players will now not
- receive "ghost" injuries for the game day. As an added addition, you
- can opt to turn injuries off entirely in a season, and watch your
- accident prone .475 hitter belt his way through the year.
-
- 3. PROBLEM: Though the pitcher has possession of the ball and is in a
- ready position, game play options will not appear and computer must
- be rebooted.
-
- PROBLEM FIXED: The game functions normally in this respect. The pitcher
- will throw the ball to a base if the runner is still running, or he
- will settle to deliver the next pitch, awaiting your or the computer's
- next command.
-
- 4. PROBLEM: (CD ONLY) Tony2 will not run without re-configuring for sound
- each time before play.
-
- PROBLEM FIXED: Install the first time and play. Load up the game again
- and play....
-
- FANTASY DRAFT
- For floppy owners who do not already have the fantasy draft, it is
- included in this patch. Any questions about it can be answered in the
- individual screens by selecting either F7 or selecting the menu
- choice "HELP" under the Home Plate Icon.
- The fantasy draft can be started from the baseball icon.
-
-
- WARNING (to customers with high scoring games)
-
- Due to the data structure, whenever upgrades are made to
- Tony2, whether by patch, team disks, stats downloading,
- or expansions, high score games will occur when first
- playing exhibition games. To alleviate this, just select
- Start New Season under the Season menu, select a season,
- and follow the on-screen prompts. Once this is done,
- games will have normal scores both in exhibition and
- league play.
-
- CONFIG.SYS
- Due to changes in the program, it is advised that the following changes
- be made to the CONFIG.SYS file in your root directory or on your
- bootdisk before playing TONY2:
- FILES= 30
- BUFFERS=25
