== Installing Roster Patches ==
Roster files are saved files, which means they are located in the '''saves''' folder. You'll find this folder in your Documents, under the folder for the game you're playing.
In Windows XP, by this will be:
* C:\Documents and Settings\YourWindowsUserName\My Documents\NBA Live 2003\saves
* C:\Documents and Settings\YourWindowsUserName\My Documents\NBA Live 2004\saves
In Windows Vista, 7, and 8, this will be:
* C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\My Documents\NBA Live 2003\saves
* C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\My Documents\NBA Live 2004\saves
Saved games and rosters are stored within their own subfolders within the saves folder, with each subfolder's name corresponding to its save slot (eg 000, 001, etc). Roster patches should therefore be distributed as a folder containing saved files, and must placed in the saves folder.
For example, if a custom roster for NBA Live 2003 is being distributed in an archived folder called '''002''', then the 002 folder must be placed directly in the saves folder, like so:
* C:\Documents and Settings\YourWindowsUserName\My Documents\NBA Live 08\saves\002 (Windows XP)
* C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\My Documents\NBA Live 08\saves\002 (Windows Vista, 7, 8)
'''NOTE:''' This would override any roster or game that you already have saved in slot 002. Take care before overwriting any save folders and be sure to save your game/roster in a new slot first if you want to keep it.
Inside the 002 folder will be a bunch of [[DBF]] files, along with a .dat file which contains information about the save.
Now that the roster save has been placed correctly, you will need to load it from the '''Load/Save''' menu within the game.
== Additional Information ==
* All paths specified in this guide assume that you have installed NBA Live to the default folder, and that Windows is installed on your C drive. If this is different for your PC, alter the path accordingly (eg C:\Games\NBA Live 2003\render).
* If you're having trouble with a particular patch, be sure to contact the person who made it.
* Always look for an included readme file for detailed instructions on installing a patch. Patchers are definitely encouraged to include readme files for detailed updates.
* Adding face patches '''will not''' automatically add players to a roster. You will need to create them yourself, and then assign the face to the player you've created.
