unable to d/l patch for MVP 2004

[PaulieWalnuts2001]

For those experiencing trouble using the (rediculously inept) web update feature that EASPORTS employs, all of the MVP 2004 patches can be manually downloaded from their ftp site -

ftp://ftp.ea.com/pub/easports/misc/mvp2004/

ps - Here's a tip - NEVER delete your original uncracked unmodified .EXE file. ALWAYS store a copy of the original EXE in your game installation folder BEFORE you apply any crack. Then, when a patch comes out, you can delete the cracked EXE and rename the copy of the original EXE back to its original name, and then apply any patch you wish. For cracks that replace files other than the EXE file (DAT or DLL files for example), make copies of those originals before applying any crack. Always keep copies of the original file. Doing so will give you the opportunity to apply update patches pain-free.

pss- I'm still desperately seeking a crack of the new patch for MVP 2004...
