The new rosters also contain some minor ratings updates for a couple of players, fixed dunk packages in the NBA Live 2005 and NBA Live 06 updates, some art updates that were made available after v5.0 was released back in April and a couple of other minor fixes. Please note that they do not contain new Brooklyn Nets artwork, as we’re still in the 2011/2012 season. Those updates are available separately for anyone who’d like to have the new logos early.

With the unveiling of the new Brooklyn Nets logos, I’ve decided to get a jump on updates for next season. While these won’t be included in the next set of roster patches that I anticipate releasing early next week, seeing as how those will still be 2012 season updates, I’m releasing the new Nets logos separately for anyone who’d like to update their game early.

At long last, the wait is finally over! I have released new versions (v5.0) of the current roster updates for NBA Live 2005, NBA Live 06, NBA Live 07 and NBA Live 08, containing 2011/2012 season rosters accurate as of April 23rd 2012. Get them at the download links below:

Make sure that you download the correct update for the game you’re playing. Please see the support threads for supplemental downloads as well as the download links for the Roster Only version, if you’d prefer to use the rosters with an alternate art pack.

Please note that the rosters were finalised on April 23rd and as such, do not include the signings of Xavier Silas and Derrick Byars, while also featuring late season lineups where several key players were resting. I anticipate releasing another set of updates in the next week or so which will feature those transactions along with lineups updated as of the first round of the 2012 Playoffs and any fixes/updates that may be required. Thanks again to everyone for your patience in recent months, I hope you enjoy the rosters!

Small Release: Dallas Mavericks 2011/2012 Alternate Jersey Portrait

Dallas Mavericks 2011/2012 Alternate Jersey Portrait

As I mentioned in my previous post, I’m still working on the 2011/2012 season roster updates for NBA Live 2005 through NBA Live 08 and anticipate releasing them within the next couple of days, just in time for the 2012 Playoffs. However, while assembling the jersey updates for the rosters, I discovered that we are currently missing an updated Jersey Select screen portrait for the Dallas Mavericks’ new alternate uniform.

As such, I’ve whipped up a quick patch which will be included in the roster update and in the meantime, can be downloaded here. Jersey portraits certainly aren’t my forte but hopefully this will suffice until one of the more experienced jersey patchers in the community can provide a better one. The update was made for NBA Live 08 but should work fine with NBA Live 2005, NBA Live 06 and NBA Live 07 as well. Enjoy, and keep it locked here at the NLSC for the release of the new rosters very soon!

Quick Update on the NBA Live 2005-08 Rosters

Posted by Andrew at 1:10 am

Apr 232012

Just a quick update on the status of the NLSC roster updates for NBA Live 2005 through NBA Live 08. Unfortunately I encountered a minor setback over the weekend which has pushed back the release slightly, however I still anticipate having the rosters out within the next couple of days, just in time for the 2012 Playoffs.

At this point there are still a few art updates to put in place and check, along with some accessories and contract info to update. I’d estimate the NBA Live 08 roster to be about 98% complete; once it’s done, I’ll be completing the conversions for NBA Live 2005-07 and releasing all the roster updates right here on the NLSC. Thanks again to everyone for your patience and understanding, at long last we’re in the home stretch!

Roster Updates for NBA Live 2005 through NBA Live 08 Coming This Week

Posted by Andrew at 12:39 am

Apr 192012

I’m pleased to announce that at long last, I anticipate releasing new roster updates for NBA Live 2005 through NBA Live 08 by the end of the week. At this point, all of the necessary players have been created, player art is in place, the rosters for all 30 NBA teams and the East and West All-Stars are up to date and years pro have been updated to include the 2010/2011 season.

Over the next couple of days, I will be finishing up editing ratings for players who were in last year’s rosters, ensuring all team art is in place and up to date, updating things like salaries, team records and accessories, adding this year’s Rookie Challenge rosters and putting on other finishing touches. Once the NBA Live 08 update is complete, I’ll be converting it for use with NBA Live 07, NBA Live 06 and NBA Live 2005. As soon as that’s done, I’ll be uploading the new rosters and announcing the release here on the NLSC.

A huge thanks to everyone for their continued patience and support. I am getting the rosters out much later than I would’ve liked, due to a combination of the lockout dampening my enthusiasm, burnout on making the updates and other responsibilities continually getting in the way, however the release is finally in sight. At this point I’m not sure about the future of the updates beyond this season, especially if NBA Live 13 does come out on PC, but I will evaluate the situation around the time of the 2012 Draft as I’d like to do what I can to keep the old games alive for those who still play them. In the meantime, check back soon for the new rosters!
