Problem with the salary cap editing

[Phoqry]

actually it will make the game better because teams will re-sign talent as oppose to seeing top players sit out a year because no one can afford them, this needs to be fixed imo need something to make these players accept smallers deals hard to think they would sit out

[dopeboy]

True, but it can make game too easy if you can sign almost any player in the league at any time. The result is that nba is starting to look like mlb (yankees)..

[Phoqry]

well thats why i use 100m cause one u sign a great player or two good players ur cap space is now gone and u are where u was just with a better team, the players will improve costing more to resign them.

[dopeboy]

I finally changed it to 100M without crashes. Main reason why I did this, is that the game automatically removes free agents with minimum salaries at the start of the season. I hate spending couple of weeks to tune my roster in dynasty. At least this will help to avoid that.

Hey can anyone here help me find my nba live 08 salary cap HEX value in my franchise file? My cap is $56.63 and the calculator says my HEX string is DD31. I've reversed the 2 digits and subtracted 0.0005 but UltraEdit can't find the string. I noticed there were alternatives on here... can anyone tell me what mine are please? would be very appreciated.

Try 36DD.

For anybody else, it seems that it can beone of 3 options no matter what salary cap you have.

You have 5663 as your salary cap and the tutorial sais to add a zero to the end so it becomes 56630 and subtract 5 to which it becomes 56625. But, it could also be 56630, or 56635.

So, either add a zero and convert it to hex...
add a 5 and convert it to hex...
or subtract a 5 and convert it to hex.

One of those 3 possibilities is going to work when searching for your salary cap.

Sound advice.

pdub i also have that same salary cap 56.63 and i tried to find all those hex's. i could not find a single 1. i need help. do i need to wait till the next year and possibly look for that salary cap or is there something else i can do?

[Patr1ck]

56630 = 36DD
56635 = 3BDD
56625 = 31DD

You didn't find any of those 3?

[tkuforiji]

no i did not find a single 1. i can send u the franchise file myself and u can look. i do not know what else to do. maybe im looking in the wrong place. im looking where it says some thing like "01 05 D3 D6 F6 41 etc"

*Edit* nevermind i found it. Thanks for the help

[Patr1ck]

You aren't using the hex editors search function??

[robcorpus]

can anyone help me edit my salary cap..
i tried my best changing it but i cant? im using ultraedit..
my salary cap is 55.63

[Andrew]

Try searching for 4ED9 or 49D9.

[robcorpus]

it works i just used another hex editor

thank you sir andrew

[insomniaticmarky]

how do u change it? i mean what's next after finding the hex? and wat are u going to do to what you found?

[Andrew]

I've deleted the other two threads as there's no need to ask the same question in three different places.

You need to overwrite the existing hex value with a new one. A few basic ones for larger amounts (like $80 mil, for example) are included in the tutorial for easy reference. So basically, you're finding the existing salary cap value and changing it, but both figures need to be converted to hex first. If you've found the existing salary cap value, you're halfway there.

could any1 plz send me or PM me the file that contains the edited 100M salary cap (sorry i don't know what file is that). Plz ,plz,plz...tnx in advance

[Patr1ck]

You can't just take somebody else's file because it contains essential information about their franchise. It would cause your franchise to crash and be unplayable.
