Need help creating a classic team

[/skip this] Hi, I've played every Live since 2k, but never patched them. I discovered this forum one month ago while searching for info about this year's NBALIVE2006. I've read and learnt a lot of stuff I didn't know was possible and succesfully modded my own game, so thanks a lot guys for all the information and patches in this site. I've never posted before but now I've got a problem that will seem easy to solve for most of you, but I couldn't find an answer through forum search...

Last week I decided to start a dinasty with Bird's Celtics, Celtic/Lakers was what got me into NBA basketball as a child (and Jordan/Wilkins assured I didn't forget the game in my teenages), so I was nostalgic about the great games I watched years ago and wanted to recreate them.

As most of those players are in the legends roster, I created them again (lowering their ratings as they would be rookies/youngsters now) and simply edited players.dbf to copy/paste the legend playerpkg and speechid. Now I get the correct speech and portrait, but the cyberfaces/3d player models are not changed. I know how to patch a cyberface, but I thought I could copy/paste the legend roster's ones.
I guess I could edit the players.dbf and change the legendary players age, team and ratings, but I would prefer them to be still available as legends with their original ratings. Can anyone help me?

You have to modify the appearance.dbf file as well

The PLAYERID (players.dbf) relates to the APPEARID (appearance.dbf)


Eg. Aaron McKie has a PLAYERID of 0, therefore his APPEARID is also 0
