INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
After you click the "DOWNLOAD" button located below you will be brought to a webpage with 5 separate download parts. If this is the first time seeing the "5 Part" downloads on this page then you're going to want to download and install Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 first (in that exact order). If you have already previously downloaded Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 once already for the Ultimate Base Roster or one of the other Season Mods you won't have to download them again. If you're not sure if you have downloaded them previously then play it safe and download/install Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 before moving to Part 4 and Part 5. Remember, after you download and install 1, 2, and 3 ONE time you never have to download them again.
You will, however, need to download Part 4 and Part 5 every time there is a new update NO MATTER what.
After downloading Part 4 make sure to read the "README.PDF" file located in the zip file.
You will need to place all of the contents from Part 3 into your Main NBA2K Folder.

After downloading Part 5 make sure to read the "README.PDF" file located in the zip file.
You will need to place all of the contents from Part 5 into your SAVES Folder.
