create player dbf

can i create a player like chris duhon or nay other thats not in the game on the players.dbf using ms access?

I think you can.... or is it exel?

excel works best i think

Excel works better than Access, but DB Commander and the NBA Live 2005 Editor are safer than both of them. It's better to create players from within the game first then edit them externally.

thanks andrew. I tried adding a player last nyt using excel and the game hanged. good thing man created the word BACKUP. can u direct me to a link where i can get tutorials on how to edit using excel?

- what file to open.
- what to edit.

I dont want to ruin my game that is why i am asking so many questions. thanks...

also where can I find the missing players text?

Go to the home page for NLSC. Click on Nba Live 2005 under NBA Lives. Look for the DBF editing guides. Players.dbf and appearance.dbf are the files to edit. Like Andrew said, create the player within the game first. You are better off using the NBA Live 2005 Editor. Excel causes problems for some users.

thanks bassman.... i'm gonna have to figure out what i can do about your suggestion.
