help with my updating process

I recently downloaded TUP mod for O8 to use its art files for my 07. But it seems like some kinds of art file like shoes don't appear correctly. My solution is to copy-paste appearance.dbf and fixed version of players.dbf into NLSC roster folder. Are those work enough? Do I have to move or fix any other file like face, hair, accessories?

It should be all you need to copy across as far as databases are concerned, but I couldn't guarantee that you won't run into further problems. I'd certainly try it and see how it goes, just do a bit of testing simming through a season or two in Dynasty Mode before you actually start a proper one.
