I decided not to include a new AIACT because I am not currently happy with what I have. It's just inconsistent. Some teams play a great game, while other teams don't.
Quick list of features and notes
99% of the courts from SUM v1 were fixed so that the game won't crash when you are using many high res patches together like 2x Armbands and Tattoos and 512 jerseys. The 1% that I didn't fix, didn't crash. Go figure. [/b]The courts are installed in the stadia directory[/b], so if you have any courts in your sgsm directory, they won't be overwritten but they might conflict(graphics problem) or still cause crashes because they are large in size or don't match the viv file that is included in this mod.
If you want to keep those newer courts, here's a way to stop the crashing - http://www.nbaliveforums.com/ftopic50604.php
[b]Andrew's Roster v 1.12 is included as
SUM V2 in your saves directory. It is modified to support
Real Shoes Patch version X which is also included.
Player Accessories have been modified by
bigh0rt based on what those player's used during the 2006/07 NBA season.
Team Gear has been modified by
bigh0rt so that many teams will have
black socks when using away jerseys.
Not all of the shoes that players wear will match the jersey since the Real Shoes batch file was based on an older version of the NLSC roster before many player transactions were made. Maybe I will update it, but I probably won't if I have to do it all myself. Seriously, it's like 2 months to Live 08.
Tattoos have been fixed so they display on the arm correctly as long as you have the 2X Armbands and Tattoo patch installed, which was included in SUM v1 and as a seperate download in the 07 add-ons download database of the main site.
Some players will have a different color head then the rest of their body. I couldn't go through every player since I had alot to do. It's a very simple fix, so if you spot some, I would appreciate it if you let me know who it is in this thread so I can supply everyone with a small appearance.dbf file edited to correct the issue.
An
optional lighting update is included. It does not have the same problem in SUM v1 where parts of the court were a very shiny white.
An optional
Broadcast Press Camera is included. It is based off of NBA 2k7 and NBA Live 08 preview videos. There is also a nba replay file which changes the default zoom values when you go into instat replay. I just made it start a bit farther from the target so you can zoom in instead of having the camera at it's max zoom each time you enter replay mode or change the perspective.
An optional version of the
Original NBA Leather Ball has been included. It is fixed to stop the shimmering/grainy effect of the ball from SUM v1.
Hopefully the issues with the installer were ironed out and everything installs smoothly. I can't guarantee that, especially if you have loads of other patches installed.
The only requirement prior to installing SUM v2 is that you have the
2X Armbands and Tattoos patch installed. Oh, and NBA Live 07.
