Patch is Out!!!

HOw do you manually install patch?

I downloaded the exe from EA server and the 2 RTP files. I save them into my Live 2005 folder and ran it. That's how I got that error. The link is at www.nbalive.org

Ok I manually tried to install the patch and this is the error I'm getting:

Code:

 Old file not found. However,a file of the same name was found. No updates done since file contents do not match.

WTF does that mean, I have a legal copy too?

Since shoes.viv is mentioned it probably means it can only affect the original shoes.viv. You probably have DANet or Seraph's shoe patch installed so it won't install. It also might not install anything if it can't install everything.

So what I'm saying is copy those files mentioned off your CD and then try installing the patch.

Does anybody have the problem of when u try to save gamestats it freezes your game? Where does it save game stats at also?

For anyone still having problems downloading it...

Thanks...I was able to download the file but after trying to run the exe file I got an "old file not found error and the contents of the file dont match".

Why is that? Anybody experience the same error?

did u install like any patches like danet's 2x shoe patch or update ur loading screen? if u did then it will give u that message...

Nope I didnt install those patches. Hmm...I just remembered that I installed the Molten ball patch. If thats the one causing the error, how do I fix that without reinstalling the game again?

\sgsm\common\xshoes.viv

I seems that only this 3 files are updated with the patch and I think that you have made changes to one of this files so the patch will not install.

I had the same problem and I replaced the 3 files on my hard disk with the original ones form the CD and after this the patch installation worked properly.

wheres it save gamestats?

Thanks crossover, I finally got the patch installed.

I have the same problem as you earlier, but I can't get the old files back from the cd.....can soemone please help me!!!

i have both espn 2k5 and nba live 05.. i think espn's gameplay and all that shit is better, but for live 05 , its just the slam dunk contest that makes it seem better

Why cant you copy those 2 files from the cd? Its zipped inside disk 2, unzip them and copy them on to your NBA 2005 folder then its done.

3. Fixed issue in dynasty mode with player stats not carrying
over into the next season properly.

I manually installed the patch successfully, but this is the only one that isn't fixed. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a way to fix it?

NBA LIVE 2005 Patch #1

This patch has the following fixes/improvements

1. Fixed not being able to see a player's statistics on the substitution screen
during a game.

2. Fixed the ability to Save Game stats from the in game pause menu
for online and exhibition games.

3. Fixed issue in dynasty mode with player stats not carrying
over into the next season properly.

4. Fixed issue where the last saved roster was not being saved so that it would
load into the game at startup.

5. Improved art for all shoes in the game.

1,2,5 are work
but 3 and 4,the most important things don't work....

i did everyrthing, but I think is because i replaced the original game with the cracked version...imma do taht right now, thanks for your help

For some reason when I click on get this patch I get a website error.

The patch worked fine for me. Im glad we finally get game stats when we sub.

Does the patch solve all the problems for you, dsigns?

yea i just got the patch, everything works fine for me too...

ps. duct tape-ur from houston??? cool, i live in sugar land, right next to houston

Yea, some of the stuff is kinda hidden. Like now there's a button on the bottom to view the game stats. Maybe the patch has an issue if you have previously installed a custom patch. I dont have any other patches installed on my game.

sweet, cheers for the heads up, going to install the patch automatically...I have no idea how to do it manually
