DANet - HI-RES MEGA *JERSEY* UPDATE RELEASED!

Tue Nov 23, 2004 2:44 pm

This patch upgrades EA's default jerseys and numbers to a hi-res (2x) format using EA's own hi-res textures from NBA Live 2005. I'm pretty sure that the decision to ship NBA Live 2005 for PC with lo-res jerseys was EA's toughest decision and their biggest sacrifice when they were forced to squeeze a DVD sized game (i.e. Xbox and PS2) onto 2 CD's. Hopefully next year EA will ship the game in both a 4 CD format and a 1 DVD format like they did with Sims2 ;).

This patch is meant to be a general upgrade of all the default lo-res jerseys for NBA Live 2005 and provide a foundation for patchers to create other team specific hi-res jersey patches.

Copy and paste the following into your address bar for a for a preview:
http://patches.nbalive.org/pics/DANet-Jersey_2005_preview.jpg


Notes:

A. This patch installs hi-res 512x512 (2x) jersey textures and hi-res (2x) number textures into NBA Live 2005. All default jerseys included with NBA Live 2005 are upgraded including the hidden third jerseys for the Celtics, Hawks, Hornets, Mavericks, Sonics, and Warriors.

B. This patch installation creates a backup of your existing jerseys...so reverting back to the default lo-res jerseys is extremely easy (but I'm not sure why you would want to ;)).

C. The jersey numbers can not be opened or modified using the patching tools currently available :(.

D. This patch has been split into 7 separate installations to make downloading the patch easier. The separate installations can be installed in any combination and in any order.

Installation procedure for the hi-res jersey update:

1. Download and run the DANet-Jersey_update_2005_PartX_v10.exe file.
2. Run NBA Live 2005 and enjoy...

You can get this patch in the NBA Live 2005 "Jersey Updates" section at:
www.nbalive.org

Bonus information:

Here are some codes to unlock most/all of the jerseys in NBA Live 2005. To input the codes you enter the "Lounge" under the "My NBA Live" section...

PRYI234N0B - Unlocks all jerseys

Hawks 2004-05 alternate - HDI834NN9N
Hornets 2004-05 alternate - JRE7H4D90F
Mavericks 2004-05 alternate - AAPSEUD09U
Sonics 2004-05 alternate - BHD87YY27Q
Warriors 2004-05 alternate - NAVNY29548

The Celtics 2004-05 alternate is not available by default on the PC version and requires some DBF editing to activate.

I have tested and confirmed that all the listed codes do work. Be careful when entering the codes and note the difference between the I's and 1's and O's and 0's etc. when entering the codes. Lastly, make sure you save your settings file after unlocking the items for them to remain unlocked.
