[mrtcnk_]

17 isn't Giricek. He is Zarko Cabarkapa.

42 is Yaroslav Korolev.

[LHead2]

Woo! They've got Paul Shirley still!
I've seen 42 somewhere, he's some Eastern European player, if I remember correctly. I'll look it up.

EDIT: above poster has the right of it, definitely Korolev.

[tajusx]

hay eda!
so when you post all hidden players id?

[LHead2]

Here are some more players, I know some f them but not all of them, any help...?

I've seen #4 also... Zendon Hamilton, I think.
EDIT: Def Zendon Hamilton, checked my NBA 2k7 game.

List updated

[UltraNIX]

do they have only portraits, or are faces also present in .iff format? those ID's would be very interesting discovery, thinking that those ID's could correspond with play-by-play speech ID files, which MIGHT be ingame as well, but that is to be known, if somebody takes it up.

[Misko~Kocic]

All those hidden players are from 2k8,2k7 .... You can see the non match with colour skin.....like in picture where is navaro....Light skin from 2k8 and 2k7 are much brighter than those in 2k9 here is the exemple i find....


This is from 2K9


this is from 2k8,2k7


You can see the diference......On the first picture you can see the brightest skin colour in 2k9, and in second picture you can see the brightest skin in 2k8....And we now know that all hiden faces are from 2k8 and 2k7 series....So we i guess know the LIST of hidden players....all players who appear in 2k8,2k7 and they arent in 2k9 they are hidden.....So i will make a list of that players....and we just need to find id for them.....

I will be happy if i help anyone with this!!!!!!

[Misko~Kocic]

Here it is about i m talking about....look at head skin and arms skin....You can see a big differnce

[eda]

UltraNIX, they have IFFs, which means that they hae portraits and faces. These are normal players like any other nba player, the only thing is that they are hidden.

How to export leg texture from player.....i add krsitc in the game but he got black legs and when i open it with 2k9editor and iif extractor i doesnt have leg texture,only arms

[njkobe]

kocic, changing his leg color using flyingfinn's rostor editor will do, alternatively u can change it in edit player screen as well.

[chaodck]

The thing that matters is not whether they're hidden, I think we should be asking ourselves if it is possible to replace all non used players iff's with the current players that haven't got a Cyberface/Portrait. Furthermore, it could be awesome to replace the iff's with the rookies from the 2009 draft, and after, via the outside editors (Finn's or Hades), edit them (names, info, etc...), and assign them their respective iff.

[Misko~Kocic]

Tnx,i will try with flyinh finn's roster editor,becouse Krstic isnt created by creation center...i just rename some player

[chinoy316]

kocic, changing his leg color using flyingfinn's rostor editor will do, alternatively u can change it in edit player screen as well.

You can't change leg texture in edit player. Either hexedit or editor. I prefer hexedit.

[wtferrell]

You can in Finn's latest editor. You can change "skin" from 5- darkest 1- light white

[chinoy316]

I think he means the edit player IN-GAME function.

[Misko~Kocic]

Listen....I made Oscar Pechenko to Nenad Krstic by Hades roster editor and i had a problem with his leg texture becouse he has black legs and i didnt find any leg texture in his iff. file but i manage to solve that...i open again Hades Editor and i find Pechenko edited to Krstic and i give him a number 5 in column where goes number 4 or 5...for is for non create players and 5is for create players....an when i change that and go in game i can edit his Skin....And name to,and much more,like shape of head and as a base is headshape default of Nenad Krstic....



here is the screenshoot of that


So if we update that list of numbers from 4 to 5 to all players with hades roster ed. we will be able to Manage headshape without anyprograms....

[njkobe]

I think he means the edit player IN-GAME function.

I mean we can if the player is a created one, we can do so no matter iff is assigned or not, you r right though

[njkobe]

kocic, You are partially correct, but I don't think tweaking headshape ("like shape of head and as a base is headshape default of Nenad Krstic") in the edit player screen after applying the iff will have any actual effect, you can try it, only eyeball color change can still be applied if i remember correctly

Here is how I manage to find hidden player who have their own IFF file (portrait and c-face):
FIRST OF ALL BIG THAX goes to FlyingFinn for the editor.
Here is how you do it:
1. Open FlyingFinn Editor
2. Open you nba 2k game folder (with all the IFF files)
3. Find the first png001.IFF (the very first png.iff)
4. Now go to the editor again and press twice on any of the players (don't choose a CAP,choose normal nba player)
5. You see the player's ID (Photo,PBP,and ???). Change the player's ID where it says PHOTO to 1 (=png001.iff)
6. Now you press "Browse"button where you have PHOTO(in the editor) and you'll see a table like this pop up:

7. This mean that the png001.IFF file has no corresponding nba player in the roster file, that means that the player is hidden. In other words
player's IFF is in your folder but he is not present in you roster.
Now if you wnat to see who is there in that png001.iff, you simply change the ID of any player you want to 1 (with FlyingFinn editor), save and launch the game. For example, I take SAMUEL DELAMPERT, open his info and change his ID from 826 to 1. I press OK, then SAVE. Then simply go to tha game load the roster file you have just edited and check, in this case, SAMUEL DELAMPERT. You will see a new player, a hidden one.

NOTE, you check only these IDs, which are in your nba folder.
For example if in step 5 you'll change player's ID to 2 (=png002.iff), you will see that there is no such IFF file in you nba directory, which means, that there won't be a player with a headshape, there could be only his portrait (usually these are legends).
So check only THE IFFs which are in you game folder, that is why you have to keep your game folder opened. Unless you're curious, who are these players without iffs.

I HOPE THIS WILL HELP, and TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE THE LIST OF HIDDEN PLAYERS.

That is the way it should be, simply open the IFF file and import the HANDS (the color you want).
If anyone finds any new player please be so kind and post it here,thanx
