atlwarrior upcoming roster update (Coming this Fall)

Thu Jun 20, 2013 12:45 pm

I made a few changes. I no longer use the sportzin editing style. The way I edit now is more true to EA's but more like 2k. Here are the changes I will be making
-primacy ratings
-hotspots
-scoreareas
-use rashidis edits
-and some players sigshots using Amir Khan's aiact (Before I used Kris' but I've found this one to be more true to realistic gameplay)
-updated sliders and playbooks
-ILT tuning files
Unfortunately I will be starting from scratch once more because Parallels Desktop 8 deleted all of my files which is my fault because I should've known to back up everything on my mac but it's all good I'll just start over. I only had eleven teams done so its whatever.
I'll just do them over again.

Please respect what I'm doing takes a lot of time. So I may not release it the exact time I intend to but be patient it will come. :)

Primacy ratings can only be edited externally. atlwarrior does mention that in his notes, as well. ;)

what does that mean?

It means you cannot access that rating from within the game. You need to edit it externally, using DB Commander or the NBA Live 08 Editor. As noted above (emphasis mine):

http://clip2net.com/s/5gefAL where is it here? and what does that rating adjust mean on the bottom right?

Doesn't look like it's in the Editor after all. Well, you can change it through DB Commander. The field is called Primacy, same as the in-game rating.

The rating adjust function in the Editor allows you to globally adjust all of a player's ratings by the specified amount. The included documentation should tell you more about functions like that.

Yeah but since 2k and NBA Live's Rating systems aren't completely the same it is not always the best thing to do because they use different rating scales. Nba 2k has a scale of 25-99 and Nba Live uses a scale of 1-99. In nba 2k Jrue Holiday is like a 65 dnk rating. This would be too high for him in NBA Live. Since Nba live's 1 is equivalent to 2k's 25 then Jrue Holiday would be a 40 dunk rating in NBA live 08. That is just how I would do it. I don't do that for all of the players. But I do this to the post players three point shooting, perimeter players dunking ability if they don't dunk a lot (like my Jrue Holiday example), the block ratings for perimeter players unless their a Kawhi Leonard or LBJ, and the Orebounding for perimeter players because they should not be as high as the Pf's and C's.

And the link for Kris' Final aiact is here: Gameplay Fix by Kris

You also might want to grab the Tuning files from this patch too will help substitutions and fix the teamplay: Albys' Realistic NBA Live 08 Roster Patch

i fix that problem of dunking in dunk packages.Staminas should be minus 10 in live,and everything other is pretty good.I ve edite primacies now and hot spots by using shooting tendecies and hot spots from 2k13.Also i ve setted sliders,and my animation update from downloads section..Works pretty fine,Melo is taking every second shot for knicks :D d wade is taking more shots than lebron..I ve set defensive and offensive rebounding to 50 like in nba 2k13,and you can see some putbacks from stoudemire and haslem..rondo and lebron are stealing the ball pretty well too..

To each its own. I don't use sliders and literally all of the exact same ratings from 2k. They are very different games so what may work for 2k13 may not work for 08. Especially since Live 08 PC has it's many issues.

Don't have the game as of now but if you can post a video of 5 on 5 gameplay that would be nice (Y) .

Here's a clip of the type of plays you would see from my edits in the past. This was just an early testing. I'm thinking about coming back to finishing a roster but I would have to buy a new laptop, buy the game again, and start all over. :|

I'm going to turn this into my upcoming roster release thread. Finally got the game this past Monday and I've already started editing players. I won't be releasing it this summer but probably some time this fall close to the season opener which will buy me more than enough to focus on it. I will be doing edits to every player. With the roster I hope I am given permission to provide you all with Kris' Aiact, Tuning Files & sliders w/ Tiger's Sig Shot Animations+Leon's Broadcast Cam . Not going to go into much detail on what I'm going to do but you all will really like it.

I have results from the last game I played. Heat (Me) vs My Bulls on All-Star Difficulty with 8 min qtrs & other settings I don't want to reveal at the time. Results speak for themselves :) .
