Ok i have never patched any game at all....i wanna install the new raptors jersyes that cable guy made, could somebody please tell me how to do this? Thanks in advance

Well, I think I can help

. The readme will tell you where to put the files (at least I think there's a readme

), then you add the lines to the teamgear.dbf using a DBF editor, you can get one off the main site.

by **Cable** on Fri Jan 20, 2006 7:33 am

Okay, do you know where to put the files?

by **Jing** on Fri Jan 20, 2006 7:38 am

yeah its confusing but dude its basically just making a new row and copying whatever numbers in the notepad into the dbf.

Okay, I'll help you out. This was in the download, but I'll post it as well to help.

The 'xxxxxxxx.viv' files go in the sgsm/uniforms folder. The 'jersey~xx~xx_xxxx.big' files go in the sgsm folder.

Do you get that?

And the lines after this:

Add these lines to the teamgear.dbf for the respective jerseys

are what you add to the teamgear.dbf using a DBF Editor. You can get one here: http://www.nba-live.com/download/pafile ... =file&id=1

i cant even open it :S and the answer ur question no i dont get it.....btw thanks for the help

I'll do this slow.

The files with names like toroc08h.viv (there should be three files) go in the Program Files/NBA Live 06/sgsm/uniforms folder. The files like jerseys~to~to_c08h.big (again, should be three of them) go in the Program Files/NBA Live 06/sgsm folder.

You can open the teamgear.dbf with DB Commander, or if need-be Microsoft Excel, just right click on it and click 'Open With' then select the program.

but i cant even open the download to hget there

by **Cable** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 12:42 pm

Ahhh. Now I get why you're having a problem. Download WinRAR (just search google, it's free) to open .rar or .zip files.

ok i understand where to move the 6 files you mentioned but nothing else...

Once you have a DBF Editor, open the teamgear.dbf and take a look at it; you just have to add another line to the bottom and fill it with the lines I put in the download in the .txt file.

by **Raps13** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 1:11 pm

ok i have an editor and i understnad what your saying by how do i do it?what and where is the teamgear.dbf?

by **Cable** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 1:13 pm

In My Docs/NBA Live 06/saves/*your save*.

*Your save* is whatever roster or dynasty you want to add the jerseys to, the teamgear.dbf is inside the save folder, along with many other .dbf files.

by **Raps13** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 1:21 pm

ok figured that part out...how do i add a new line to the dbf editor?

by **Cable** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 1:49 pm

If you're using DB Commander, just highlight the bottom existing line and press the down arrow on the keyboard.

by **Raps13** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 2:02 pm

alright perfect all information inputted....now do i just close the program or do i have to save it somehow?

btw thanks for all the help man

by **Raps13** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 2:09 pm

ok scratch that one......i found the save changes on exit thing....

when i went into my dynasty the jersey's werent there?

by **Cable** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 2:13 pm

And you edited the teamgear.dbf from the dynasty save folder?

by **Raps13** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 2:22 pm

i opened the teamgear.dbf and added the 3 lines

by **killer_cr0ss0ver** on Sat Jan 21, 2006 2:36 pm

cmon man, just do it cable guy and give him the file..

on the other side, this will be great for him to learn... (Y)

..............................

did you just add 3 lines or what?

by **Cable** on Sun Jan 22, 2006 1:23 am

It should have worked ... open up the teamgear.dbf again and make sure the lines are there, sometimes they don't save for whatever reason.

by **Raps13** on Sun Jan 22, 2006 4:11 am

this is weird....i input the information into those 3 lines but everytime i close the program it doesnt save...ive got checked off to save changes on exit but it doesnt....is there another way to save?

by **Cable** on Sun Jan 22, 2006 7:16 am

There isn't that I know of in DB Commander, it should save when you close it but sometimes it just doesn't save. Try editing a teamgear.dbf from a different save and see if it works.
