FAQ


01. Installing

- Ultimate Base Roster needs to be installed for this mod to work!

- copy all files from the "Main Folder" to your NBA 2K12 main folder, when asked to overwrite, click yes!

- copy the "ABA Expansion" rosterfile to your save folder (User/Appdata/roaming/2kSports/NBA 2K12/saves)

- to enable the ABA basketball, in 2K12, go to the main menu/features/codes. Scroll down to "ABA Ball" and set it to on!

- Enjoy!


02. Importing ABA Expansion teams into the Ultimate Base Roster

- copy the tmm file of the team you want to import from the "TMM files" folder to your save folder. In 2K12 go to

options/load and select the tmm file. ONLY 1 TEAM CAN BE IMPORTED INTO UBR AT A TIME!!!!!!!!


03. Known problems/bugs

- When importing a team into UBR, the teams logo wont show up right in the "select a team" menu! Its not a mistake/bug, this is due to the fact that the ABA GID's are not present in the UBR rosterfile! ANY OTHER TIME the teams logo is shown ingame, it works fine! Just not in the menus!!!!

- When using imported ABA teams in UBR's season or asso mode, the jerseys wont show up correct, neither do the logos! Same reason as above!


- While creating and testing I found some players with the "hornheads" problem. I'm quite sure I did not get all of them, so If you find any, please report! They'll be fixed in the next update!


-When playing a homegame with one of the "Playground Legends" teams, a huge board will block your few at midcourt!

THIS CAN NOT BE EDITED!!! However, you can fix it yourself easily by pausing the game, go to options/camera/reverse and set it to ON!

04. Future updates

I hope that a couple more cyberfaces and other art files will surface in the future! If you want to contribute faces, please check the "CYBERFACES NEEDED" list in the release thread!

Any bugs/problems you find, please post the in the ABA Expansion thread ONLY!!! I'll fix them as good/fast as possible!

That Len Bias is sick! Love the new jerseys for the playground legends too! What is their court? Is it an outdoor one? If it is not, is it possible to assign an outdoor court for them? I have full guru version of reditor if that helps.

yep, that Lean Bias is from The Awesome*.

ChrisBrodbeck also did an awesome Earl "The Goat" Manigault CF as well.

I also have tweak the ratings of the Playground Legends even more better. thanks to ChrisBrodbeck for making an awesome Street jersey.

Thanks man! Yeah, I'm trying that out right now, the game crashes at this point when I assign a Rucker Park to the Playground Legends...I'll keep trying though! Not sure why it crashes, maybe teamtype, maybe some ID needs to be changed or the court itself....I'll try to figure it out!

UPDATE: I think I fixed it!

[ChrisBrodbeck]

Next team announced:


1972 Atlanta Hawks:

During the summer of 1972, Julius Erving signed with the Atlanta Hawks. He never played for them in the NBA and returned to the ABA after the summer.

Article

However, he, along with Pistol Pete, compited in 2 exibition games during september of 1972! Now this team is part of the ABA expansion pack!

[IronMike]

Chris, who are the players on playground legends? Is john strickland on it? I can make u one if u need.

[ChrisBrodbeck]

Awesome Mike, and that brings up a good idea:

I'll post the rosters when I upload the previews!

John Strickland is not on that squad, but I wanted to add him and Rafer "Skip 2 my Lou" Alston anyway...so I would GLADLY take a CF for Strickland from you!!!!

[IronMike]

[ChrisBrodbeck]

Sure bro! Ill make rafer alston as well.

Thanks, but I'm pretty sure UBR already has Rafer Alston no?

JUST CHECKED: He is on the 08/09 Rockets!

[IronMike]

I cant believe Meadowlark lemon is still alive so ill have em later today

[sevin0seven]

Chris, who are the players on playground legends? Is john strickland on it? I can make u one if u need.

i see, you didn't play with my Playground Legends roster.

the reason i didn't include Rafer Alston in the roster, because i wanted it to be players who never made it to the NBA.

[IronMike]

Lol @ seven i didnt play it because the ubr can only load one team

[Bassman58]

It's looking good. Glad your adding CFs.

[Thou Beeth Awesome]

i can do john williamson pretty famiilar with him i lived in New Haven and he's like a legend there

[ChrisBrodbeck]

It's looking good. Glad your adding CFs.

Thanks! Glad you like it!

i can do john williamson pretty famiilar with him i lived in New Haven and he's like a legend there

That would be great! I'll take him off the list!
