NBA Live 2003 Bug-Fix Patch 2.0 ========================== Version History: NBA Live 2003 Release Date: 1st April 2004 Patch 1.0 Release Date: 31st April 2004 Patch 2.0 Release Date: 1st January 2005 Please Note: Patch 1.0 unfortunately has some problems. So if you downloaded that Patch, we highly recommend that you download Patch 2.0. Important Note: YOU CANNOT USE YOUR PREVIOUS ROSTERS AND SAVED GAME FILES WITH PATCH 2.0 Here are the items that the new patch version corrects: Point guards can now do spin moves. Tapping the jump button twice no longer causes the player to do a flip. Player won't run to the bench whenever he is fouled. Shooting the ball no longer causes the game to crash. Infinite dialogue loop between Marv Albert and Bill Walton has been fixed. Nick Van Exel no longer punches his Mavericks assistant coach, Del Harris during the players' introduction. Players with missing cyberfaces no longer appear as Gheorghe Muresan. Oliver Miller no longer has an overall rating of 483 compared to Shaquille O'Neal's 92. Continuous "Blue Screen of Death" loop has been removed. Clicking on the new "All Star Dunk Contest" no longer administers electric shock through keyboard. Click picture to enlarge Remaining Issues: Oliver Miller still has a weight of 483 pounds compared to Shaquille O'Neal's 92 pounds. Therefore, because of O'Neal's light weight, he is placed in the point guard position. A Hulk Hogan picture tearing off his shirt can still be seen on the Lakers court during gameplay. The red arrow mouse cursor while running Software or D3D may become stuck in the upper left corner of the screen. However, a functional spinning Spalding ball cursor can be seen and used. Using the spinning Spalding ball cursor may cause the game to crash. However, user can alternately switch to the red arrow mouse cursor if spinning Spalding ball cursor crashes. The "Pause" feature in 12 minute quarters will crash the user out of the game. The playoffs' saved game file size can reach over 100MB. Please make sure you have adequate amount of hard drive space. Not doing so will cause the game to crash. The "Quit Game" option will cause the game to crash and delete your hard drive. Attempting to uninstall the game will delete hard drive. Attempting to uninstall the game by dragging entire game directory to recycle bin will cause the game to copy itself 50 times. Also, it will delete hard drive. There is a known memory leak in the sector seven of none tertiary adjunct matrix buffer that eats up 5MB of RAM per minute of game time. Until a fix becomes available, upgrade your system to 968MB of RAM for best results. The Quit Game option will cause explosion of monitor (or CPU, depending on the time of the day), possibly injuring or killing the user. It is recommended that you carefully unplug your PC and back away, OR, play NBA Live 2003 indefinately. Latest Update: There will be no more bug-fix patch for this version of NBA Live, for there is no point in improving on what we think is an already outstanding game. Once again, thank you for your support and we hope you will continue playing NBA Live 2003! It's In The Game, and you know it! Sincerely, NBA Live 2003 team.
