unlock items NBA STore

I have used the code to unlock everything, when i visit the store, it says thay are unlocked. but when I play the game or practice, some jerseys are still locked. can someone please explain to me how the nba store and the items goes?

- i do not know how the store points are earned.
- do i have to buy all of the items even if they are unlocked?
- i have used the code the hornets yellow jersey but i cant find it in the game. also for other alternate jerseys that has a code.

You need to save your settings when you unlock items from the NBA Store. Also, if you unlock items from the NBA Store in the main menu, it won't affect a Dynasty in progress. However, you can get around that by unlocking everything from the main menu, saving the roster, and copying teamgear.dbf from the roster save folder to your Dynasty save folder.

The alternate jersey codes don't place them in the NBA Store. If you've entered the code correctly, it will simply be added to the Select Jersey screen when you play.

thanks andrew. but the problem is i go visit the nba store, check the bulls retro jersey, says unlocked.. I play an exhibition or practice with kirk, try to select the jersey but when i do, it says "LOCKED" and i cant select it. any suggestions?

Ah...the settings have been saved as "Unlocked" but the rosters have reset and don't reflect that. In that case, I suggest editing the teamgear.dbf file, to change the ISUNLOCKED attribute to 1 for the jerseys you wish to be unlocked. If you've unlocked all the jerseys or want all the jerseys unlocked, simply change all of the jerseys ISUNLOCKED attributes to 1. Or you could always download my roster update which does that for you.

thanks again man. im downloading the patches right now including the rosters. can you give me the basics on what tools i need to download and what should i download first to get me started?

DB Commander and the NBA Live 2005 Editor are perfecting for modifying the roster data files. You can find out more information about the fields and values of the DBFs over in the NBA Live 2005 section of the main site.
