hey wilson27 thanks for this tutorial, I finally figured out how to add hairs and beards lol. I just made a Tyson Chandler he's on my thread. Awesome job bro!

that's great news, do you mind sharing how to convert the hair and beards with the community? I really wanna know as well!


2k11 hairs and beards cannot be converted to 2k12. What he meant by what he said is actually how he can use one's CF with beard to be a "BASE" cf. Just like lebron's cf with beard, if you want to have lebron's beard in your cf, you can import the headshape of your choice in exchange for lebron's headshape. :cheeky:

edit: Converting hair and beard is not possible, maybe it is, but you have to find a cf with hair from 2k11 with the exact same "vertices" as with the 2k12 cf. If you really want to convert 2k11 hair and beard, yes you can by checking all CFs hair vertices one by one. (which is almost suicide) (N)

This is a very basic tutorial and will not be covering the ins and outs of modeling and techniques. If any CF patchers would be gracious enough to share their techniques it would be much appreciated.

____________________________________________________________________

FIrst off you need to download the following.

(if needed) Java - http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

NBA2KX Mod Tool (2K12 Supported)

Blender 2.49b - http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.49b/ (you want "blender-2.49b-windows.exe")

Python 2.6.2 - http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.2/

As you may have noticed, those are the old versions of Python and Blender. I was unable to get the import/export scripts working in the latest version of Blender and that Python version is what worked for me in 2K10. If anyone gets the newer versions working, please let me know.

____________________________________________________________________


Install Python, and once that is finished install Blender. When Blender Is Installing it will ask you where you want to have stuff stored, either in appdata, the program directory, or some other place. For simplicity and accessibility, I chose the program directory (i.e program files). This choice will affect where you put the mod tool scripts.

After Blender is installed, extract the Mod Tool to a directory of your choosing. In that rar file there are two .py files called ble_n2km_export and ble_n2km_import. Copy those two .py files and place them in the Scripts folder for Blender. That location depends on where you installed the data during the Blender installation.

The Blender's Scripts Folder, (.blender/scripts) will be in either,
C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts
or it will be in,
for XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\Brendon\Application Data\\Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts
For Vista/Win7:
C:\Users\Brendon\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts

Once the py files are in the proper folder we can actually start playing with 3D Models.

So to help out others, especially myself (to lessen the requests, hehe :lol: ), here is a tutorial in converting 2k11 CFs to 2k12!

CF Conversion Tutorial by wilson27

1st we need to open nba2k mod tool

now, open the 2k11 pngxxxx.iff file (cf file)

now, extract the n2km file to desktop and name it as 2k11.n2km

now, do the same with the 2k12 pngxxxx.iff
and exportres it and name as 2k12.n2km

now close the mod tool and open BLENDER

now, we should import the 2k11 n2km.

then, we move it a little bit to the left,

remember, DO NOT go into edit mode yet.

now, import the 2k12 n2km file

as you can see at the left portion. those are the names or the parts of the n2km files.

so now, as you can read, the 2k11 file is named NBA2KM only, and the 2k12 file is named NBA2KM.001

now, lets start the conversion.

first click on the NBA2KM parts:
0-0
0-1
0-6
0-7
0-8

then press ctrl+L.. as we shall link those selected parts to NBA2KM.001

then, we shall delete the 2k11 scene,
click on the X at the middle top portion of the screen beside the "SCE:NBA2KM"

so now we have our two heads!!

So the head at the left has five (5) parts,
and it is from the 2k11 n2km as we linked it earlier

0-0 is the eye at the left

0-1 is the eye at the right

0-6 is the headshape

0-7 are the eye lids?

0-8 are the eye brows?

So what we are going to do now is to replace the 2k12 parts by renaming the above-mentioned parts (the 2k11 parts).

now lets rename 0-0 and make it 0-6.001

as you can see, or as you saw, it did not renamed automatically to 0-6.001, so we have to rename
0-6.002 and make it 0-6.001! its now 0-6.001!
so now we can delete the 2k12 "old" part which we are going to replace.

we're going to do the same with 0-1, 0-7, and 0-8

so 0-1 should be renamed as 0-7.001

0-7 should be renamed as 0-8.001

0-8 should be renamed as 0-9.001

dont forget to delete the names/parts ending in ".002" because those are the 2k12 parts that we should replace

now rename 0-6 to 0-1.001

then delete 0-1! (the 2k12 headshape, the one at the right side)

now choose all the 2k11 parts, that will be
0-1.001
0-6.001
0-7.001
0-8.001
and 0-9.001
then move it to the center!

REMEMBER! GO INTO EDIT MODE ONLY AFTER BRINGING ALL 5 PARTS BACK TO THE CENTER

now go into edit mode and fix all what is needed to be fixed! (position of the mouth, teeth, and tongue, and also the headband)

after some fixes, export it to n2km and were almost done!

i named it 2k12 new.n2km then click export

so now, open the 2k12 iff with mod tool and import the new 2k12 n2km!

don't forget the textures from 2k11 iff, export it and import it to the 2k12 iff.. :D

and that's it! were done!

Hey WILSON27, I'm having a problem with Blender importing n2km files. I'm using Blender 2.61, I have Java and I placed the n2kmodtool.ms in \blender-2.61-release-windows64\2.61\scripts\startup. I also placed the ble_n2km_export and ble_n2km_import files in \blender-2.61-release-windows64\2.61\scripts\addons. When I open Blender and try to import files I don't see the n2km option. If you need more info please let me know. I apprectiate your help. Thanks!!!
