Timeout Crash

Before I get a bunch of people telling me to buy the game and play with it in the drive let me tell you I DO!!! For some reason my game started crashing when a timeout is called and after the first quarter, please help. I re-bought the game a couple of days ago from gamestop because of this problem and thought maybe I had a pirated copy, (bought on Ebay). Anyways after installing TUP11 and a few other patches...same problem. I took a pic of the game and the case as proof, you can see it below. Is there anything else that might cause this? I have Tup11 and the update 1 and the REV30 jerseys and the transitions from nba56.com and a TNT scoreboard installed.

Do not mix too many patches.Mixing patches will cause crashes.
Have a fresh install of the game and just install tup11 and update 1 and then play a game and see if it crashes.
if it does not crash then it may have been one of the other patches.

I love that you posted a picture as proof.And i love the sandals as well.

Haha, it's my day off bro!! Shorts and sandals here in the AZ!!! Thanks for the advice, I will do that.

That is how it is here in tx.
Just post again if anything goes wrong.

Humidity = no me gusta. At least it's a dry heat here, I'll let you know if there are any more problems. Thanks bro.

HaHaHa!! Yeah humidity here sucks ass.I can tolerate dry heat.And yeah,just let me know.

bro maybe it is cuz scoreboard try using badger s one

delete the overlay~lineups.big

delete the overlay~lineups.big

or

check if you have large.fsh in your sgsm and then try to delete the transitions from 56nba.

it should be the lineups.big.. I encountered this also

i deleted the overlay~lineups.big... but still crashes

When in doubt, try a fresh install.

delete that scoreboard what you use,and install badgers one

lol....guess its not because of the scoreboard.....


anyway....

First, CHECK if there is large.fsh as what Sir Jelooo has said...if it has, then delete it including the all the armbase.fsh....Then, try to install properly the roster.

1. Put the TUP ROSTER in SAVES folder and copy everything in it except save.bat
2. Paste the COPIED files in currentdb, originaldb, workingdb in the My Documents\NBA LIVE 08\database
3. Lastly, Paste it also in the OrigDB folder...Here - C:\Program Files\EA SPORTS\NBA LIVE 08\database\OrigDB

Finally, As what Sir Dc311 said....Do not mix Patches..^^..Hope this will help..^^

Basically you have too many high resolution patches, and the game engine is crashing when it is trying to load or unload them when you call a timeout. It could just be one patch, too. Start by removing any overlay patches, then any high resolution patches like logos, and even shoes.

Try to narrow it down by remembering what patches you installed after a time when it wasn't crashing.

permanently....but it's up to you...you can back up those files if you want....maybe you can use it for some other purposes. But in my case, I don't have any of those file in my NBA LIVE 08 folders..^^

at some point, there is another time out crash happening at the middle of 2nd quarter or 3rd quarter... is there any file again to delete?
