NBA Live PC --- First post Updated 1/5

[sevin0seven]

I'm glad your still in the boat Andrew.

[sevin0seven]

I seem to be having issue of playing the all-star weekend game modes. Whenever it loads up to the game, the game crashes...I'm trying to find ways to fix this problem. I also noticed the all-star jerseys are not available when you pick which jersey you want to use. I review all the patches I put together and so far I can't figure which one is giving me the glitch. Did anybody encounter this same problem?

I seem to figure out how to fix the small bugs from this game, like the crowd turning black and stuff...

[Andrew]

Have you tried playing one of the All-Star Weekend modes without the roster update? If that works, that would point to an issue with the databases rather than the art. If it still crashes then it's likely an art issue.

[sevin0seven]

Thanks for the tip Andrew! I was able to find out what cause that bug. It was one of the roster file database. The art patches was fine. I was able to maintain the current roster while taking that bug out... now I can concentrate on the other small things for this project... I'm glad that some new 08 patches work with this 06. Just have to play with it I guess.....well, back to playing...

[sevin0seven]

Well, I'm almost done patching this project (I think). I'm still not happy with the game music though but I'll keep trying to make more mixes and matches for this area. Does anybody have Audy6 in here? All the related download sites are down. I want to update the arena music, but I can't find this tool anywhere here? Other than that I should be able to release the patch...um...maybe next week?

[roces10]

JaoSming, can u send me a shoe patch??? pls.... tnx.!

[sevin0seven]

It's official! I'm going to be releasing my add-on patches for the NBA LIVE PC project. To start it off, I'm going to be releasing my very own music patch....umm.....RIGHT NOW!

The size of this file is 187.76 MB. I know, HUGE!

Well, I did alot of going back and forth with this first release... and I believe I came up with the best solution that fits this project properly. The project is called NBA LIVE PC. It's supposed to be the ULTIMATE LIVE game. So I decided to put past, present, and future NBA LIVE music on this patch. Music from NBA Live 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and only one song from 2006 is left out (Fort Minor - Remember the name) because like I said before, I will only put Basketball music, or anything that relates to it. You will also hear some music, that is not part of the NBA Live Series such as "Superstar by Lupe Fiasco", "Shot Clock by Phanatik", Basketaball Jones by Barry White and Chris Rock".... and so on. BUT, that's just the menu music. I also updated the media music and the Intro music before they announce the starting five. The intro music is the TNT theme song. This music fits right in with the TNT MOD release a while back. Well, I'll stop blubbering.....and you should start dowloading! BASKETBALL for LIFE!

[Andrew]

Sounds great, keep up the good work.

[sevin0seven]

Thanks Andrew! Did you find the time to update the 06 Roster patches for this project yet?

[Andrew]

I'll have some more info on that shortly.

[wade_03]

I'll have some more info on that shortly.

Wow I think we're all in for a surprising rebirth of 06. Hopefully.

[Andrew]

I hope so too. It will require some patience but as I said, I'll post some more details soon.

[puttincomputers]

very cool!

[sevin0seven]

sounds great Andrew! I'll be releasing some alternative xintro pacthes this week (maybe not all people have the TNT MOD installed for 06) and maybe more alternative xsongs. This should be my final updates on the "music side" of this project..unless something don't sound right.

I think we should have a TNT theme for this project, instead of the ESPN one. We can have Ernie, Kenny and Charles (the best basketball team analyst, though I don't agree with Charles all the time) on the loading screen, etc... I'm actually trying to find a good pic of them ...but no luck. What do you guys think? ?

[papa jack]

[Andrew]

I think TNT would be more appropriate too, given the commentary teams in the game.

[sevin0seven]

Then we should stick to the TNT Theme, forget ESPN. If EA goes EAST, we should go WEST. If EA it's not going to make NBA Live 09 for PC, were going to rotate that 09 and make it 06 for PC! If they can't make our PC games better, well make it better for us....for the NSLC community! Who's with me?

....ok, got a little carried away there. Anyway, here's the "xintro pack" I promised I was going to release this week:

Details for the pack:

-Lovely day intro
-and of course I also included the TNT intro that was on my first release!

Enjoy!

try making some rookies, bro. like oj mayo, beasley etc.

[papa jack]

ok ill try that, but those rookies are ready for download in the 08 section, and it should work in live 06..

[MadbaLL]

okay, project by itself is great and very interesting but i think you've made a huge mistake in choosing nba live 06 over nba live 07.

[Andrew]

Considering that NBA Live 07 was picked as the least favourite game in the series (though it's probably been surpassed by NBA Live 08 now), I'd have to respectfully disagree there. We certainly considered NBA Live 07, what with SUM already created and an up to date roster patch but with NBA Live 07's issues and limitations, as well as feedback in the survey JaoSming conducted, NBA Live 06 presented itself as the better choice.

[BigGameJames]

Wow this looks great, I'm not any good at making patches but I'm gonna have to go get live 06 now for sure.

[Patr1ck]

There are many pros and cons to choosing any version to update.

07 pros - freestyle superstars/in-game switching, player rotation, commentary/crowd/atmosphere, dribble penetration defensive animations, roster updates already out...

07 cons - sim engine(fixable/improvable), no walking, collision detection, mixing high resolution patches cause crashes, random quit game crash bug, only possible to interchange animations with Live 08, computer rarely attempts alleyoops, point guard takes too many shots, triple threat freestyle burst drives function incorrectly...

06 pros - solid gameplay, 3x jersey potential, good fast breaks, triple threat freestyle burst drives function correctly, possibility for using animations from 2004/2005 and the ps2 march madness series, audy 06 for updating commentary, possibility to use headshapes from newer versions, sim engine is good...

06 cons - too many intercepted passes, unable to switch FSS during games, FSS easy to exploit, primacy bug after injuries...

I was going to say Live 2005 should have been the one to use because I installed it and had a little fun with a couple of Seushiro's animation aiact files. I found that it CAN be done with 06, although 06 is a bit picky. We just need someone who can do things like that.

[JaoSming]

i.e. you, but if it is going to be that big of a pain in the arse may as well try converting down the NG animations

and isnt 1024 4x jerseys?
