    The only real issue is we dont have playoff box scores… the problem works itself out when season 2 starts…. but by then the boxes are lost.

    Also… one other thing has cropped up…. we play WITHOUT 3 pointers and the players were all created with 0 / 0 for 3PA / 3PM… now guys are getting some rather crazy numbers for 3PA. As you can see here….

    guys have numbers in the negative…. i understand this doesnt matter too much cuz they wont shoot anyways… I just worry this might affect other things, such as what shots they take and things such as what they demand in free agency.

    Just wanted to bring this to your attention. Yes, I realize my league is a bit unconventional… lol

  2. Frank – Sorry to hear about nancy I hope she is doing much better.

    So on a clean install of the latest version, what would I do if I’m asked for a license #? If I uninstall my existing version (5.0), wouldn’t that blow out my current license?

  3. I have the one that’s copyrighted 2007 and I can’t load historical draft for 1988-89 or beyond. Why? I have been and it just stopped. What do I do?

  4. I am still using version 5.5. How do I get the updated version. I’ve emailed shotsports several times, and never got an answer. Thanks in advance, I love the game and look forward to future releases.

  5. I bought this game about 4 years ago. And when I was putting all my files into my new hard drive and seen it so I went a dusted it off and went to start it up and it says. INSTALLATION ERROR: Please Ensure the default League file: Default_04-05.lge is located in the same folder as jumpshot.exe. But the Default_04-05.lge is there. I know I did not play this game for about a year or so but I put alot of work on this game for the Historical.xls I updated players till 2006 and did the 2007 draft class and then I stop for well long time. What do I need to do get this game up and running again thanks

  6. Hi,

    I purchased the game a while back and have version 5.55. How do I get it updated to version 5.61? I can only find a link for the full demo version.

    Thanks,
    Mark

  7. Where can I find my license code that I used during the install? I am ashamed to admit, I forgot to write it down. Are we going to need that when we get the new game?

  8. Just bought the game, it errors and shuts down once you start simulating the game in both 07-08 and 08-09. It has done this about 20 times. Awesome.

  9. I just bought JSB and when I start to simulate the games an error message pops up “JSB executable stopped working” My OS is Vista. Any suggestions?

  10. Ok, I just realized today that Vista users should run JSB as administrator. I dont know why but when I run normal any deleted files even after emptied from recycler can still be read. Any ideas? Anyway can we start over? Uninstall the current version, delete the folder and then run as admin and tell me what happens. I’m not sure if this solves the recent issues but I’d like to find out.

  11. Hi,
    I recently purchased the new JSB and I recieved the link on my email. My laptop that had the game on it crashed and I’m getting a new one. I wanted to know if it was possible to get it on my new computer?

  12. Hi,

    Probably a simple question, but I can’t seem to locate the HTML files once I run the HTML Output tool. There are no files in the Output folder and the help feature doesn’t seem to provide an answer (or at least one that I understand). Where should I look for them?

    Thanks,

    Tim

  13. I bought the game friday night and downloaded the 08-09 rosters. After making a trade and signing a couple free agents the game crashed on me and now it won’t play because it tells me there’s was an early termination error. I forgot to add the receipt screen to my favorites so I can’t re-download the game without repaying and I don’t have the email to directly talk to support. Please help.

  14. Game doesn’t progress to the 2nd season if doing a fictional draft when setting up the league. It has the progress bar ‘grayed’ out

  15. I have version 5.6 and was playing fine and all of a sudden I get error messages, no standings, can’t check out draft prospects,etc JSB error. How do I fix? Is it a computer or a game problem. I run windows 2003.

  16. No, just working out some “off the field” troubles but still doing some work on the game whenever possible. I will post updates asap.

  17. this game keeps crashing on me. i run vista. i keep getting an exception code: c0000005
    any reasons why? i’m running as administrator. i also right-clicked desktop icon, went to properties and checked to run windows xp serve pack 2 compatibility mode.

  18. I’m working on JSB now. Some more personal and health issues. When I have a chance I work on the new JSB but I need to clean up the current version first. Rosters and the issues here are current priority.

  19. Was wondering if anyone (including Shot Sports) has a legacy version JSB 4.37. It was just the freeware trial version. Used to run it with my son. Now I have a grandson I would like to introduce it to but my install has become corrupted and get a Visual C++ error so it won’t load anymore. Was hoping if I reinstall it will work again. I don’t really want to take the time to learn the newer versions. Just want the simple interface for my six year old newbie. Anyone help me out?

  20. Have been been playing around with JSB 4.37 for about six years. Was running just fine until suddenly I get the following message. It no longer runs.
    “Visuall (not my spelling) C++ MFC Game Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
    If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. For more information about this error, click here. (underlined)”
    From there, the “click here” takes you to the code which I have no clue how to decipher. Can anyone suggest a fix or have that version of the program saved to re-install?

  21. Hi Frank,

    I am a long time registered user of JSB but it is prompting me for a rego code for Version 5.60. I also would like to know how I can get 5.61 and whether we are still getting the new game “Courtside something or other” for those that loyally purchased the full version.

  22. Will there be any update for this season? Any roster updates from last year? Anything? I do realize that you have personal issues that take priority over the game and the development of your new game. However, as one who has bought the game many times (just rebuy on new computers rather as easiest way) and who loves the game, would really appreciate if there was any way you could just give updates of some sort on some regular basis on your website. And, yes, I do see the April 6, June 25, and August 1 posts under support but honestly they don’t really tell us very much. Love the game. It’s underpriced. Understand it’s not your priority. But any news, even bad news, is better than no news or virtually none. Thank you.

  23. In my voyage to find a suitable replacement for JSB I bought a recent text sim release and find that it still lacks in certain things that JSB provides.

    The newer game I bought seems to bulky for my taste and more emphasis on how “pretty” it is as opposed to how well it plays.

    JSB has it’s flaws to be sure but I am still looking forward to ANY progress on it to make it better or this ever elusive sequal.

    JSB Crew are you out there?

  24. Sounds like Frank or his family must be going through health problems again for which I’m very sorry. However, someone is approving the comments we’re writing and posting and it would be very appreciated if they or Frank or anyone with knowledge could just update us. Certainly any health issues are more important but just a few words would be greatly appreciated.

  25. @Bruce
    Exactly my thoughts and what I commented a few months ago. But my comments for some reason were not approved. We know someone reads these and approves the comments judging by the fact people’s comments show up. Problem is there is no update. I had an issue with my game and i posted a comment requesting some assistance and no one bothered to even reply. I mean, you take my money for the game but I cant get some assistance?

  26. Bruce :

    Ummm the comments are not having to be approved. It is more automated than anything.

    So nope I would say Frank is MIA for now.

  27. I am still around and I still dont want to give up on JSB. So not pulling the plug just another difficult time but I hope to be active soon.

  28. I have the game since end 2010, played intensively but blocked after the 2nd season because of the playoffs problem already mentionned….can you gave us help plz thxxx??

  29. Does anyone have updated rosters for 10/11 or know how to add players or update them easily? No use emailing support about it as no emails get replied to!

  30. No easy way to add players outside using the ingame editor or tweaking the .plr file. Can be tricky so backup pf course.
    Otherwise importing a csv for a whole league. Trying to get our rosters out by the end of the month as the target.

  31. Getting close on the rosters? Will these be beginning of year rosters or mid-season or what? Were/are there some start of year rosters for 2010-11 that I overlooked?

  32. We haven’t done rosters in a while. I was working on a tool to allow easy roster updates using online stats to be used with the new game and the current JSB.
    I just posted a roster set on front page. It uses the stats as is, so no tweaks to stats or ratings. The Warriors are great if you don’t edit the D ratings – ouch but it seems to be ok.
    Chris Paul was MVP. Lebron and Wade were top 10 and Miami went 47-35, second round out. Bosh was out for the season late in the year. Magic won the title.
    I will add another end of season one with some tweaks.
