[Bird_33] Retro Stadiums & Updates Inside *MAGIC JOHNSON PREVIEWS*

[Culture Games]

I'll be releasing a bunch of Larry Bird CFs today..all improved on since the previews too.

Johnwest, they do use my arenas but you'll have to check redmc and rename the file to match.

Haha the Sun's shoe issue is a minor thing I gotta fix in redmc on my 90 mod (which I can probably release)

Im just teasing you. But I do wish mods would just do the quick universal fix to make sure no teams have black (OR TEAM) sneakers prior to the 1990's (except the celtics) All teams should be set to white primary shoe color for home and away from 1980-1992. Also all teams should of course be set to white socks. Even after that, very few teams wore black sneakers (Celtics, Heat, Knicks), except for some during the playoffs. Nothing ruins a retro mod like rainbow colored team shoes in retro rosters.

I'd love to see any full mod you worked on. I remember following that thread years ago.

Back in the day where the Celtics where the only team in Basketball to wear black shoes as part of a great tradition. Then came the 1989 playoffs, and freaking Brad Sellers had the idea that the Bulls should give the black sneakers a try to change their luck against the Cavaliers. MJ, had had his second consecutive all-star game wearing black sneakers and loved the idea. The 1990 Bulls also wore team biker shorts during the playoffs (white in the first round, red in the semis and black in the conference finals).

Then others team followed the "good luck for the playoffs" black sneakers tradition (Sixers in 90 and 91, Warriors in 91 (and kept using them the following 4 regular seasons), Knicks in 92 through 00, Heat in 92, the suns in 94, etc.) Other teams along the way adopted black shoes for their regular season like the Warriors, Clippers, Heat (Start of 92-93), Bullets 1996-97, etc. and other adopted black sneakers for their away unis (1992-93 Suns, 1993-94 Magic most notably).

Wow! Outstanding Larry Bird faces! I just love it when modders make players for various seasons.

Amazing quality man, you are a hands on modder like the old school guys who created the 1992 and 2003 mods for 2k9, 2k10 and 2k11

Not a fan of retro, but some really nice work here mr Bird.

Just a quick update on why this thread is quiet. I did a Windows 10 update and when I got up the next day..couldn't start my computer (thanks microsoft) I've tried all the things I'm supposed to do without luck so basically now I've gotta get my files off my hard drive, do a fresh install and put them back on again.

[johnwest1985]

feel for you man... windows always messes things up with their update. On my old laptop i decided 4 years ago to turn of windows update and i never updated since then. Never a single problem

good luck anyways

Having a nightmare with it! good news is I haven't lost anything. but Ive downloaded mod tool (and java) when I click to open it the part where you select which game version comes up but when I click ok...nothing happens, at all...and 3dm tool I re-downloaded, downloaded net fram or whatever it prompted me to do....and when I click to open that, again nothing happens, not even a warning or anything. Anyone got any ideas?

I think I had this problem before and fixed it when I downloaded the 32-bit version of java. Hope that works for you bro.

[Bird_33]

Ive fixed the 3dm problem with direct x downgrade..im gonna try a 32 bit java as you say Rich and see if that helps me...i swear I hate computers haha

Working on Magic career CF's, quick preview of early 90's Magic, I killed it with the texture even if I say so myself still needs his nose texture mainly finishing. Oh and of course - he will have eyes.
