can we do this?it can make the game more realistic...

[botsak]

i know that there is a real atmosphere patch right?

so is it possible that we can add mvp chants and other sounds in game by importing sound files etc. in nba 2k10 or 2k9?

[Andrew]

I doubt it, at least not the way we'd want it implemented; we're very limited when it comes to editing the sound files in NBA Live 08. You could probably include chants of "M-V-P!" in one of the arena ditties so that it appears the crowd is chanting along to the action but it wouldn't really be chanted at an appropriate time (for example when a player is at the free throw line and is worthy of the chant).

^^In that case, I can't imagine the crowd chanting MVP for Brian Scalabrine

[botsak]

Maybe other sound files? like they are shouting eeee-oohhh... or we want tacos.

[botsak]

sorry for the double post but is importing sound files from 2k10 or 2k9 to nba live 08 could be done?

If you know something is against the rules, don't apologise and then do it anyway. Just don't do it. There was no need to double post, especially to ask the same question you already did in the original post, a question which has already been answered.

NBA Live 06 have M-V-P sound
and when i play Lakers in Staples Center ,i can hear KOBE-KOBE-KOBE
can you import it to NBA 08
sorry for my bad E

[Andrew]

No. Like I said, we're limited in what we can work with as far as sound goes and Audy 06 is not compatible with NBA Live 08's files.

[KidJustin]

Andrew, about the sound files....
do u happen to know how hawk_3y3 did his RAP patch? like what tools?

i'd ask him myself, but i haven't seen him around so i might not get a reply back.

[Andrew]

No idea, sorry. As far as I know we can still edit the arena ditties, but not arena speech (the PA announcer) or the commentary files.

[KidJustin]

yea do u kno how/what tools to edit the arena ditties? i think that's all hawk_3y3 edited

[RR]

About this game sounds talk, maybe Andrew can help me in an old doubt that I have:

why some new guys (thinking Live 08 date release) like Derrick Rose and Tyreke Evans has their name spoken by Marv Albert and old ones not?

I know that for the new comers probably is used homonyms surnames so is it possible to use the "Hill" of Grant to George, for example?

Thanks

I believe it's still Ditty Importer.

NBA Live 07 and NBA Live 08 both have a bank of common surnames that are automatically assigned when you create a player (or can be manually assigned through DBF editing).

[RR]

Thanks man, so any idea why George Hill's name is not narrated by Albert?

[Andrew]

Not sure, I wasn't aware that it isn't working. The surname Hill is definitely in the database and George Hill's SPEECHID is set to 5191 in the rosters, so it should be called; everything's as it should be.

By the way, you can check out a list of names that will be called by opening the cpan.dbf file in the originaldb database folder. As far as I know they all work, but I haven't tried them all out so perhaps some of them don't. Come to think of it, that might explain what's going on with George Hill and the 5191 ID.

[RR]

Thanks again Andrew.

Unfortunately I am a dumb-head on editing things, patch files.

So KidJustin, is it possible to fix it on future TUP-10 updates?

[Andrew]

I've taken a look at the TUP roster and his SPEECHID is already set to 5191; if that's not working then there's probably not much else that can be done, since we can't edit PA announcer speech or commentary in NBA Live 08.

.who were the the one's commentating on NBALive08's allstar weekend.
.like slamdunk and 3point shootout.
.i don't recognize those voices....

[G-Game]

what particular file should be edit to chant M-V-P? and another problem i think the link for ditty importer is broken, i got this error message > 550 no such directory.

Ernie Johnson and Greg Anthony.

I've fixed the link (and downloaded a copy in case it goes down again):

thanks for fixing the link, but i still have the same problem, i can't figure out what file do i need to open and change to make a new chant for the crowd like in your example of MVP chant? and yes i was able to use the tool to change the music track but i really want a new chant if it's really possible. can you teach how? thanks!

[Dc311]

You cant.It is possible but the people that created the tools/software are not here in the forum anymore and they never released them.

[stellare.xperia]

well i hope we'll find the software/tools to edit these things.
just to help everyone to make the game more realistic.

[Andrew]

At this point it's highly unlikely, unfortunately. If anyone in the community is up for developing such tools though, by all means give it a shot.

[Sideshow Bob]

Can we add chants to specific teams?
