Playbook

How can I custom my offensive playbook?
Every new game I have to change the plays because the game will restore the default options.

ya i'd like to know this

is there anyway u can dbf edit the team to use a certain strategy all game??? like say if u wanna use 2-3 zone all game on defense or box5 on offense can u edit the dbf file somehow???

This might help you if you look in the middle of the list: http://www.nba-live.com/nba2005/dbf_teams.php
Not sure how it works though, Andrew would be the man for that...

Basically it's changing the values in all the plays fields in teams.dbf; they all correspond to values in plays.dbf. Doing that changes the default "dynamic" plays for the CPU team, I'm not sure about the effect on a user controlled team though.

so what would i do to make my team run box5 all game?? how would i edit it would i edit team.dbf or plays.dbf??

You would edit the primary play in teams.dbf, changing it to the appropriate value as listed in plays.dbf.
