v2.8 released...

[Brent]

Good news! After playing the uninstall, reinstall game several times I finally figured out how to fix the problem I was having with the game crashing.

1) I uninstalled the game, including the deletion of both NBA Live 07 folders (my docs and prog files).
2) I reinstalled the game (didn't have to do it in safe mode).
3) I downloaded and installed this patch: http://download.nba-live.com/index.php?act=view&id=1196
4) I then installed the NBA Live 07 NLSC v2.8 Roster Patch

And that's it. Not sure why that particular combo worked for me, but I've played through a complete season with OKC and have not had a single issue other then the game crashing when I tried to play the 3pt shoot out.

Thanks again for making a great roster update.
I may never get a good night sleep again.

You're welcome, glad that the problem has been resolved. NBA Live 07 is definitely a frustrating release when it comes to that issue.

what files am i going to delete??

[Andrew]

Any files that contain "seathome" or "seataway" can be safely deleted from the sgsm folder.

@andrew

are you going to put flip saunders as a washington wizards coach in next release? he is about to be annoucned as their new coach in a day or two...

[Andrew]

No, probably not. I'll probably leave Tapscott as the coach in the 08/09 rosters and then beginning with the first offseason update I'll make the change. It'll probably be one of the last things I decide upon when the release comes out in the next few days so we'll see. At some stage that change will definitely be made for next season.

[MadbaLL]

it's up to you, but i think you should put flip saunders on wizards' bench in next release...

[Andrew]

I generally hold off until the offseason to make a change like that though. That way the final 08/09 roster has data accurate as of the 08/09 season. Since Saunders won't have technically coached the Wizards in 08/09, it's not really appropriate for him to be reflected as the coach in the 08/09 rosters (and I usually get complaints from people who want to play through the season but want the 08/09 coaches in place). It's an easy enough to change to make so I'll see how I feel when I'm finishing up v2.9.

please andrew ,release with all speech players of the season 08-09
ok?

thanks

sorry for
bad english

[Andrew]

Sorry, no can do. We can't edit the speech files for NBA Live 07 and obviously NBA Live 07 does not include speech for players not in the league during the 2006/2007 season. I'm afraid that's a problem you have to put up with for updated rosters for older games, at least ones where we can't edit the speech files at any rate.
