Additional Tips from Ariel (nba2kway)

About Fonts size and color

At 68F10 we find position and id of home team name
Image

You see F1 36 C3 9B ?

Well that´s the id of the home team name :D

Now search for that id in the file from the beginning you will find more than a pair of references until

Image

You see the same code in red F1 36 C3 9B
In yellow : Font family - try with another you find linked to other code like the one of the score, etc
In green : the color

You see in the image above the 11 11 11 I mean the font color.
Well the next 00 no, the next one is the justification

00 : left
01 : right
02 : center

So it will be 11 11 11 00 01 aligned to the right.

I guess size should be there I didn´t find it yet.

I´ll add more later :)

Thanks for the tutorial Double LC, but wow, it seems way harder than expected, and that's probably why we have no edited scoreboards this year (besides the logo).

nice thanks :D
Anyway I was not able to import it with Blender.
With 3ds Max works great.

Thanks mate. Probably it was related to my old version of blender. I´ve updated to the one you show there and it works.

It´s a real shame we can´t use 60,70,80 scoreboards on present games. We could have created some great stuff. The newscorebug.iff is really complex and has no textures that remain all time visible.

I´ve found text format and color too :)
I´ll add this info to the tutorial later. :D

Another tip

guys, why when import the scoreboard texture ( bmp,png,dds) I have an error? ( normal texture scoreboard, no 3d texture)
the texture is in png and when import there is a message " yes or not"...click yes and there is an error message, I click continue and save

Re: Scoreboard Tutorial...

Sun May 13, 2012 4:13 pm

Hey Guys! Question about increasing font and number size in scoreboard, Do i need to hex edit the font and number size or I just edit the 3D location of it? And does anyone find the font and number size in hex? Thanks for the help! (Y)

Re: Scoreboard Tutorial...

Anyway here is what i've discovered, the position is where the Font Family is located

Shot Clock
position: 4F880 ID: D4313253

Quarter
Position: 4F790 ID: B09D5485

Time
Position: 4FB28 ID: 2464DDDB

I believe it's correct because I was able to edit ESPN scoreboard.
