Portraits

[kc2135]

Would 2k11 portraits work in 2k12 and if see what or where can I find iversons portrait file name

[JaoSming]

you can export the 2k11 iverson portrait and import it over a 2k12 coach or unused legend, then assign that ID to your created iverson's portrait

Is there a forum on which files are which for 2k11?

I'm new to the PC version of NBA 2K12. Is there a tutorial available that outlines how to change existing portraits or how to add new portrait images to players that don't have one? I've looked around but haven't been able to find such a guide for a newbie as myself. Also, would editing/adding portrait images be a function available in the REDitor when it is released? Thanks in advance!

the REDitor doesnt handle iff files yet

learn those tools first, decompress the portraits iff then figure out the mod tool part of it. try that first then learn how to use the chinese trainer to add portrait numbers to players who dont have them.

I want to add portraits for rookies but i dont know how to use that chinese trainer to assign portraits for rookies... could you write step by step how to do that Jao?

Ok thanks. I'll look that thread over.

When the REDitor is ready, will editing portraits easier? For example, would the tool allow you to simply select an image file on your pc to use for a portrait and then it'd do the rest automatically?

I wrote a tutorial once about adding portraits to any id, no need to replace current ones, but i guess it got lost and ignored.

Sorry I forgot it was there, hope it helps with 2k12.

Is there a way to put my real life portrait in the game for 2k12?

[JaoSming]

find an unused portrait in the file, replace with your picture

figure out the ID associated with that portrait

use the chinese trainer to give a created player that portrait

[kc2135]

When I use the mod tool to pull up the portrait file it brings up the 2k12 folder but I can't see anybody's face to import a texture over, can you help with this?

[JaoSming]

did you decompress the file first with the decompressor? And are you opening the decompressed version of that file in C:/NBA 2K12 Decompressor rather than the actual directory?
