07 xplays and xscnario converted to 08 update released!!!

[atlwarrior]

I simply took the xplays.viv and xscnario.viv from seushiro gameplay update and put them in my nba live 08 ai folder and it played just fine with no crash and on top of that the gameplay was better!!! I believe these are 07's xplays.viv and xscnario.viv files but they are 100% compatible since 07 and 08 obviously use the same plays. but for some odd reason they run better than the original xplays.viv and xscnario.viv files. i got really good gameplay out of this in 08. This is definitely worth downloading and i will talk to the developers of tup about putting this in tup10.

Heres the link! http://www.mediafire.com/?vz5wynthwlm

Anyways sorry I have no readme so pay close attention.
unzip the rar file and there will be two files
cut both of them
Go to your program files or in my case program files (x86) and find the easports folder and click on it
click nba live 08 folder
go to ai folder and paste in there. Enjoy!!!

maybe some post some videos of the play? I'm interested

[atlwarrior]

sorry at this moment i wont be able to post any videos. But you can backup your whole ai folder in case you want to switch back to default files but all animations are exactly the same. The only things i see improved were passing and shot selection and i reccomend with kris aiact. as of right now im making a roster too.

What will exactly change? I haven't use it yet but I downloaded it

I'm testing it and so far the only weird thing that I found was that Duncan won't do hooks or fadeaways near the paint.

[atlwarrior]

Yeah it only looks like there are slight changes. For me the players move the ball around a little more and taking less quick shots.

I like the sound of ball movement

maybe someone can learn the file modifications and do the ones for ball movement on TUP09's files

[atlwarrior]

Yep. I still see a little bit of the same problems but I think if you want the game to run realistically then these xplays.viv probably the answer to getting rid of pg domination, the fastbreak issues,bad shot selections, etc. for good then this may be the answer. If anybody can figure out how to edit these files and fix the issues then the game should definitely run better. A lot of people think its just the aiact but thats only part of it. The good thing about nba live 2005 is that it can use either nba live 06's xplays.viv or nba live 07's xplays.viv w/o crashing. Nba live 06 really has the best xplays.viv file but its not compatible with nba live 08 unfortunately. But yeah ive already tried editing it through EAGE but i couldnt figure it out.

my PG's still dominates in the game
