Additional Release Notes

1. I've re-added the option to select the installation folder in this version. The installation should detect the main game folder automatically but in case it doesn't, you can select it yourself.
   
2. In the event that the installation folder is displayed as something like C:\PROGRA~1\EASPOR~1\NBALIV~1, it should mean the installation has detected the correct folder. If in doubt, feel free to select the main folder manually. Make you select the main folder though, not the sgsm folder as the installation is set to install the files to (Main NBA Live 07 folder)\sgsm.
   
3. If you do run into any problems with the installation, please let me know. All the usual feedback is still most welcome but as usual, please keep it constructive!

I can't download this! Please give me link where i can download this update. I can't register on nba-live!

I've already posted a working download link. You don't need to register to download files.

why is carmelo's hair not change?? [/code]

My bad. I now see where is download link

Where is the link?* i can't found

The link is in the very first post of this thread. Can't miss it.

why is carmelo's hair not change?? [/code]

Because the only way to change that is to edit the cyberface, and I can't make cyberface patches. Until such time as someone makes a Carmelo Anthony update that I can include in the update, there's nothing I can do about it.

Nice work with the patch. I use it since nba 2004.
But I would like to know why some veterans still in this patch like Penny(71) Bob Sura(69) Webber(81)and Francis(82)(not retired yet but with low stats for long time). And Why they are with ratings so high? Some of them with rating higher than young stars like Brandon Roy (77) Stuckey (67) Young (68) Calderon (69).

Overall ratings are very overrated these days, it's the individual ratings you should pay attention to. When you start boosting or lowering ratings to make the overalls look "better", that's when you end up with really off ratings. As for the veterans, I was sure I'd already moved Chris Webber and Bob Sura to TEAM 32, which means they shouldn't show up in the active rosters. Penny is still in there because he played last year and may yet attempt another comeback. That said, I will need to go through the rosters and review some ratings, I've just been flat out lately working on a lot of projects (three different roster updates, the forum upgrade, the Downloads database upgrade and some other things I'll be unveiling soon) so I haven't had time for that.

nice work .... hey can you please give me the link for the roster update of this patch.. it looks great... and1 team,converse and somoe others....
pleeeaaassssssseeeee........

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OYx658onlE this is the link.. sorry forgot to post it...

Sorry, I don't know which update that is. There's been no release here under the name of "perfect patch".

How do I add new rosters to my existing dynasty or season?
I'm half way through my season and don't want to start again?
Thanks for help

You can't, sorry.

good day.how can i correct the bug in your 2.3 version wherein mo williams has a marcus williams face in th game? thanks.

There is no such bug in v2.3. If that's happening for you, it's the result of another patch you have installed which means you'll probably have to delete any files with MAWILLI in their name in your sgsm folder. The issue is definitely not with the patch itself though, which does not include an update for Mo Williams and is definitely working fine for me.

Fantastic patch but there are bags.........

Andrew some problems.

1)No portraits for rookies and Sophomores for example(Derek Rose and Sean Williams from NJN)
2)Amazing)))))))) faces of rookies and Sophomore ......

There are screenshots of amazing faces.........

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

hey andrew can ya take into consideration looking into devin harris for the next update. Somethings he has improved on past few games is his free throw shooting, his quickness to get inside the paint and causing and finishing fouls, and passing skills.

All required faces are included. If they are not showing up, please consult Faces Troubleshooting.txt for information on how to fix the problem. I'm not sure why it's still happening for some people as the installation should detect the correct folder automatically from the registry. If it doesn't, you'll need to follow the steps in Faces Troubleshooting.txt. Note that some players are missing portraits because I don't have them, but no one should be missing a face if everything is properly installed.

Sure, I'll take another look at his ratings.

Hi. I tried play Phoenix at Miami three times already (season mode). Game crashes unexpectedly and i get kicked out to windows. Twice it happened after I called the time-out and third time just before tipoff. Any suggestion? I played many other games as miami as well as phoenix. I run real simulation cpu-cpu in my season mode and up to now was ok. Any suggestion please? Btw - Why isiah thomas is a phoenix coach in marv albert words?

I need to fix the audio ID for Terry Porter, I obviously left the old one when I replaced Isiah Thomas. Easily enough fixed though.

I'm not sure why you're experiencing those crashes though, I've tested the roster and there shouldn't be any issues with any of the files included with the patch. I can't guarantee compatibility with all other patches though, particularly aiact.viv updates.

And that patch is recommended to be used with default aiact.viv?
Anyway, I uninstalled my live08 now and gonna remove it all. Install the game and then I will install your patch. I will keep the forum updated. Thank you

That's correct, it was made using the default aiact.viv file so it's the only one I can guarantee it will be compatible with.

Yes Andrew. That's correct. I installed all game again + your patch + espn hd pack and all works great. I also use default aiact. Before i had diffrnt one.
Thank you.

Got general players ability questions. I mentioned early i let all games run live simulation without interference. cpu vs cpu. There's some players like for example kevin martin hitting over 40-50 pts/game. What would you recommend to lower their scoring numbers without changin whole team off ability.
Is it only primacy or also off awarness + inside scoring (dribbles to rim) should be change>? How you calculate that? I'd love to change to more realistic figure. I am only few days into the season but I'm happy to present you with all my stats for real simulation season. I tried before many times in past and always failed. Maybe it could help somehow? BTW. I had P.Gasol hitting 52pts. Kobe avr is great arnd 30. Lebron never goes below 45.
Thanks mate

Dinasty mode problem
In the dinasty mode, the creation of the OKC Thunder produces a lot of problems.
Draft rights of OKC are Magic's ones, Magic rights Sixers' ones ... and finally Spurs rights OKC ones...
This is the same for the standings, teams haven't the one of other team.
I don't which file should be modified, can you help me?

Moreover you haven't actualised the last contract for Danny Granger, Stephen Jackson, and the latest ones.
I've changed it on my roster file, but your rosters could be better if you do it too...

Thank you for your good job, i like what you've done!
