I wanted to make a street court patch like the one in the nba live street 2004

please help

You need EA Graph and FSHx (to change logos, dornas, and stuff like that) and EBO Editor (to change court colors and logos position)...

I'm gonna explain you how to change logos, dornas and all other files that are not EBO files:

1st: Go to ........NBA LIVE 2005\sgsm\stadia, and open the team's .viv file you want to edit (ex. utah.viv) with EA Graph and extract all FSH files except for the tnet.fsh (It's the net, so it doesn't need to be edited).

2nd: Open each fsh file with FSHx and import the files (I suggest DDS's, 'cos BMP's don't work for me) u created with Adobe Photoshop (logos, dornas, and all other files u want to replace), save and quit FSHx.

3rd: When u finished to import all the files with FSHx, open again the team's .viv file (ex. utah.viv) with EA Graph and then click on Import Wizard>Add Files To An External TAR Archive, select each .fsh file u saved with FSHx and import it.

That's it. Hope that you all understood and that this can help. Sorry for my bad english...
