Some Technical Help regadring Live 2004 Please

So I am playing the Dynasty mode in Live 2004 and I have a few things not working properly

-The Stamina bar never runs low. I have the stamina bar ON in the settings but it never runs out.
-Due to the bar never running out I think the CPU teams never make substitutions which means I am stuck with their best players for the whole game.


-The jersey's names on the back of all the players a lot of the times say AAAAAAAAAA instead of their name.

tweak the fatigue slider, or make sure fatigue is on in the first place (you can turn the bar on without turning fatigue on)

are you using 2003 jerseys in 2004?

no it is original Live 2004 Rosters. no mods

Looks like it's low qualitied graphic cards.
Anyway, if he uses 2k3 jerseys in 2k4, it will not say AAAAAAAA just it'll show weird symbols.

Another Question.

I am yet to see an AND1 Dunk during gameplay. Does the game not have any?

The AAAAAA issue was one of the problems addressed by the official patch. From memory, it was an issue with some video cards.

It's been ages since I played NBA Live 2004 for an extended period of time but I'm fairly certain you can get and-1 attempts on dunks.

yea I've definitely had them too

Oh dang I cant apply that patch because I use a no cd patch for it and I already returned the disc to its owner. If I was to download and apply a new jersey patch such as the 2005-06 jersey patch for Live 04 will that fix that issue as well? Will it be a problem that some of the old players might had been gone in the 2005-06 season?
