NBA Live 07 in widescreen

[BadLuckLuke]

Since I observe that there are a lot of new members here starting to play NBA Live 07, I thought I ’d post a useful tutorial on how to enjoy a better game:

a) Set your in-game resolution to 800x600, play a game for like a minute and then exit the game, NBA Live 07 will save your resolution.

b) Search for a string (ctrl + F) "20 03 00 00 58 02" by using a hex editor on your original nbalive07.exe file.

c) Now replace / overwrite that string with one of those:
"A0 05 00 00 84 03" (for 1440x900 native resolution)
"80 07 00 00 38 04" (for 1920x1080 native resolution)
"80 07 00 00 B0 04" (for 1920x1200 native resolution)
Don't forget to make a back-up first!!!

Please note that the resolution only changes during an exhibition game and not for the menu start-up.
Furthermore, when you pause a game and go to the detail settings, it will still say "800x600", never mind that...

Feel free to post any in-game pics in this thread after you are done and don’ t forget to check out my thread too:

Does this work with nba live 08?

[Andrew]

Possibly, but I'm pretty sure NBA Live 08 actually has support for a couple of widescreen resolutions.

Andrew, no.. nba live 08 and 07 both have same resolution but BadLuckLuke tutorial fix that in all games

[Andrew]

I might've been thinking of the PS2 version of NBA Live 09 then, I remember one of the last gen Lives having widescreen support.

While this does work, it looks horrible. The game doesn't support widescreen, players end up looking like they're 3 feet tall and fat.
