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:
NBA Live 08: Download | Support Thread
NBA Live 07: Download | Support Thread
NBA Live 06: Download | Support Thread
NBA Live 2005: Download | Support Thread
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!
Glad to get these out for everyone. 🙂 Hopefully they’re as bug free as possible but if you’ve got any bug reports, as well as questions, issues and constructive feedback, please feel free to leave a comment below. Just be sure to mention which roster you’re using so I know where to look and what answer to give you!
Thank you so much!!!!
Want me to record gameplay of 08?
If you feel like recording and sharing a video, by all means go for it. 🙂
Oh wow! Thanks for the release Andrew! Been waiting for this in a while. I’m going to install this since TUP 12 doesn’t come out yet. Really a great release, oh yeah! =) Just in time for the playoffs. =)
yeah! yeah!
Thank you Andrew!
Thanks for the support, everyone. 🙂
Hi Andrew! I’m Taw and I’ve been following your work eversince:) I am great fan and I do appreciate all the work you put for us playing the old NBA live games.
I am still playing NBA LIve 07. I always download roster updates ever since you started uploading it. So I downloaded the latest update for the rosters yesterday and I have a problem. After downloading and installing the rosters, I loaded it and try to play a game. I tried to use Denver Nuggets but Nene (with the washington wizard picture) kenyon martin (with the LA clipper pic), Felton (with the portland pic) plus the rookies are missing. and the ESPN transition does not appear.
I tried using the other teams and it is all thesame. The rosters are from last year. I hope you can help me out with this. I would appreciate it:) Thank you very much!
So long as you load the NLSC1112 or 1112Uninjured roster from the Load/Save menu, you should have the up to date rosters. The ESPN Transition is not included in the roster update, but can be downloaded separately and used with the roster without any problems.
That is what I did. What folder can I delete the contents and then install the roster update. Its always going back to last years update:(
The saves folder is found under NBA Live 07 in your Documents. That’s really strange though, I’ve tested the installation routine and everything should be working fine, with the rosters in those save folders being the correct one.
Additionally, when starting a new Dynasty game, make sure you select “No” for the 2006 Draft option.
Nice one sir andrew…
been waiting for this..
salute…
salamat sir Andrew…
Hi Andrew! I am still having problems with updating the roster of nba live 07. I downloaded it again, reinstalled my nba live 07 but it is still thesame. the problem is that when i try to load the new roster the bdate written in the side is 9/20/11 thesame with the uninjured. the date should appear april 26,2012 right? kindly help me:)
Are you installing the roster first, or NBA Live 07? NBA Live 07 needs to be installed first. If you have installed the game first, then run a search for NLSC1112, to see where the installation routine has placed that folder.
Hey Andrew, I’m having the same issue as taw with my Live ’05. The rosters are not updated and are still at least 1 year old. The art does seem to be updated however (Tyson Chandler in Knicks jersey but on Mavericks, Chris Paul in LAC jersey but still on NO, etc.) and no rookies such as Kyrie Irving on Cleveland. I completely removed the saves folder, ran the install, and it populated the directory with new folders, but all the contents of the roster folders have last modified dates of 2011 and there are no updated rosters as of April or June 2012. Any solution? Thanks.
As above, search for a folder called NLSC1112 to see where it’s been misplaced.
Why those rosters aren’t working in Dynasty Mode? Wanna play it, but when I run DM I got OKC for example, but players are from Seattle 2006/2007. Help please!
When starting a new Dynasty game, make sure the new rosters are loaded and select “No” for the 2007 Draft option. Otherwise, the new Dynasty game will be started with the default rosters.
Oh, thank you. I willl try it.
