Would be cool to have ratings for arcade players displayed like the original roster ratings are displayed on home page under the respective teams

RBI Baseball / Famista (AKA ProYakyuu) ROM wi...
Last post by ProfessorW - 10/19/25, 11:42:31 AM
Hi, this is a rom of MLB teams of 1986.
Differences with RBI Baseball:
* The 4 division champs. With slight variations when compared to RBI Baseball.
* Included the 4 division runner ups: Texas, Yankees, Cincinnati and Philadelphia.
* The final two teams are my Baseball Legends teams, and the Namco Stars.

Also in the zip, there is a csv file showing which player is based on.

Hope you like it.

RBI Baseball / Re: R.B.I. Baseball 1908

Exactly my same approach with the linear regression. BUT I cap the power and speed calculations to not exceed some values.
And Judge is to blame. I think that since he is an outstanding out-of-the-score, why push all of the others? he must be noted still as an out-of-the-chart. Simply using him at my maxed cap value, since no one else will be near.

But I'm interested in your second method, the distribution model, how it works.

What did you use for pitching calculations? I have an approach, but I'm not entirely convinced, I think it's cheating in a way, but it gives me enough flexibility and variety from one year to another.

Quote from: ProfessorW on 10/17/25, 12:48:02 PMWonderful collection, I'll test the 1984 season with 10 teams and see how much differences are with the generated with a program I made. (So far the tests with what I call "true data" for 1986 are playable and believable enough IMO)
Probably instead of using 1987 data, I'll use 1984 and compare with the rom of your site Baron.

Using linear regression, about ten years ago I generated a formula for determining power and contact ratings using all of the ratings from the original NES. I have since had to re-calibrate the formula focusing more on distribution value because, in short, Aaron Judge broke R.B.I. Baseball.

<Nerdy incoming!> Basically, the calculations and ratings worked fine and were created when the most powerful HR hitters lead the league with 45-ish HRs, resulting in power ratings of 950-ish. However, repeated 50-60 HR seasons by Judge have pushed the power-ratings continuously to 999 and beyond, so I'm using more of a distribution model instead of a straight formula. This started with the 1908 and the soon-to-be-released 2001 release, and will be used with all future releases. The old model should work with the 1984 release, though.

I'll probably share in this forum A Famista86 rom with the MLB 1986 data by the weekend. Unfortunately I have found a few errors with the translated Famista88, and in some things, I have to go back to "design phase".

Thanks for the info. 850 is low-end power hitter (Matt Nokes is 852), so if that's top of this ROM then it'll be not QUITE dead-ball levels of dingers but still a lot less than a typical game.
