Hey all,
My name is Scott and I've been coming to the NLSC since the late 90's. I absolutely loved Live 2000, and all of the add-ons and updates that were provided for it. Heck, I probably still have many long since unavailable Live 2000 files if you guys needed them for archival purposes.
Now this is a strange question and after reading the forum rules, I hope this doesn't qualify as an illegal request of files. That's not really what I'm gunning for. I've been playing a lot of Strat-O-Matic basketball (http://www.strat-o-matic.com/ which you can purchase past NBA teams dating back to the 60's and 70's all the way up to the present and have them duke it out with any other team for supremacy.
Anyways, the in-game "engine" allows you to use custom images for players, courts, etc. And since I'm an especially big fan of 90's NBA, I got the idea to use portraits from my copies of NBA Live for the PC (I have 96-2001 and 2003). Works pretty well too thanks to the great tools provided here. My question is if it's possible to track down any "custom" portrait files from some of the other games (even for older 70's or 80's patches).
Or if there is a good repository (other than Google Image) for portrait-style pictures of players in general? I've got numerous old Sporting News NBA Registers which have black and white versions that I could scan, but would rather go for color if possible. Plus it's kind of sad that I had to use a screen-capture from the original NBA Jam just to get a Scott Skiles picture. lol
Not sure which forum this should go on since it's technically a request for another game, but also relating to Live. This is the sort of thing I'm doing with Strat-O-Matic though: running random tourneys on my own and posting them online. Such as here http://agw.freeservers.com/SOM1/99IND-93SEA-RD1.htm
So I'm honestly not expecting that anyone will be able to help with this, but at the very least after all these years, I figured the good folks here at the NLSC might be able to steer me in the right direction. Thanks much!
