Additional Release Notes

• I uploaded the rosters before seeing that Rasheed Wallace has replaced Kevin Garnett on the East All-Stars. I'll probably release an update in the next couple of days to reflect that change.
  
• As always, the rosters are a work in progress. Suggestions and corrections for ratings and player data are always welcome. Please note there are over 400 players in the roster so while I try to be thorough, chances are I sometimes overlook a player here and there. If that happens, by all means let me know.
  
• The overall ratings will recalculate as I did not get the game to do that automatically after applying Maek's Fatigue/Substitution Fix. In most cases, players will only drop a point or two overall.
  
• Feedback is still very much welcome for the international teams, Decade All-Stars etc. My main focus is always the current rosters but in the spirit of making the rosters as complete as possible, feedback and corrections in other areas would definitely be appreciated.

A big thanks to Maek for the fatigue fix, as well as everyone who posted feedback on the initial release. I should be able to resume more regular updates from now on, keep checking the release date thread for the latest info on future updates.

You're welcome. I'd suggest grabbing one of the simengine fixes for the best results.

I have a question to the roster patches about nba live 08. Why is that everytime i try to update or modify the roster the alternate jerseys of utah and washington cannot be used anymore after i modified it? But honestly i really love every patch for nba live 08 you have released and im looking forward for more patches.

Thanks.

Thanks very much Andrew! Just want to point out that Rodney Stuckey's speech ID is wrong - the announcer says a Greek player's name.

[manolo]

Thanks master Andrew!

[Maek]

I'll try this new version. The Official NLSC roster is what we use in our Company NBA Live tournament. Fortunately, I'm the commissioner and we're on our 2nd season to be held after the all-star break.
We use this roster because of it's consistency and non-crashing features unlike the other rosters out there. In Lan/Direct IP games, the simpler the better.
And because we have Season-then-Playoffs setup, we need the most current version of roster available for maximum realism. And you can find it with the official roster.

BTW, I have a roster project right now. I would like to pattern it to the FANTASY NBA leagues. So every rating of each player will reflect from their real-life fantasy value/stats. Hope that I could release it before March. But I can't say it'll be perfect but I'll do my best to make it extremely realistic. I'm targeting to update it every month until the offseason (Feb-July).


Thanks a lot and keep it up IDOL !

You're welcome, everyone.

I have a question to the roster patches about nba live 08.

But honestly i really love every patch for nba live 08 you have released and im looking forward for more patches.

Thanks.

The latest NLSC roster includes an updated teamgear.dbf file, so those jerseys should be available.

hi andrew, im new here hehe i need a little help hehe

1) i would like to try your roster and alby's roster but im afraid of its compatibility, can i try them both? or is there a difference between the two?

2) and does your roster needs the shoes patch by xiaojou or its already included? or is that shoes patch compatible with your roster?

thanks!! a lot!!!

1. You can only load one roster at a time.

2. The NLSC rosters don't include any shoes.

Thanks very much Andrew! Just want to point out that Rodney Stuckey's speech ID is wrong - the announcer says a Greek player's name.

I'll doublecheck that, I might have entered the wrong ID number. Thanks for the heads up.

do these contains black socks for away teams and new all stat jersey??

I don't do jerseys so the rosters do not include the 2008 All-Star jerseys at this time.

great patch andrew. tnx for the hard work you've put into this. but where is nba live 07 roster patch? i thought they would go together.

I had hoped to do that but I ran out of time. The 07 update is not far off, probably another day or two.

Thanks man, thak you very much, rosters in nba live 08 are soooooo horrible,
although i think there are some overrated players.

You're welcome. If you have any suggestions for player ratings and players you think I should review, please let me know.

[grusom]

one quick note - Rasheed Wallace has replaced KG on the eastern all star team.

I noticed quite a lot of players whose ratings seemed a bit off as I browsed through the roster screen, but I'll make a more detailed post about that later.

Thanks for the update!

[Andrew]

As I said, I'd uploaded the rosters before I saw the news so I'll have to correct that in the next version. I might release a quick update (just the dbfs) with Sheed on the East All-Stars this week, if not a full regular update.

[kingtrobe2411]

hey....great patch again
i did however see an error...

Jeremy Richardson (F.A.) has a wrong speech file

[grusom]

Sorry, I guess I was so eager to try out the rosters that I didn't even bother to read the release info.

[Andrew]

Jeremy Richardson (F.A.) has a wrong speech file

Thanks, I'll double check him as well.

No worries grusom, the timing was a bit unfortunate when I checked the news yesterday but at least it's a minor thing for me to fix.

Are the sigshots from WebberF1 in your roster?
