Thanks my friend, yeah I noticed all the socks that are less black in game, by replacing a certain layer in game it effects all socks and such making them all lighter/darker, same goes for accessories from what I've noticed

Kaitoukid wrote:Cam this is my last request. " Ankle Brace is updated to socks style (U can use colored socks now) " Can you make it? like Lagoa features on his global on 2k13
Yeah I saw it, and like I said I don't know what to do, I can't fix something that's not bugged for me as I don't know what specifically to alter is my point dude. I'm not pointing anything on you. As far as making colored socks I don't know about that as ankle braces are occupied by well, ankle braces, and ankle wraps will be occupied by D.Rose's Ankle wear + Socks. I'm going for realism with this global rather than just cool accessories and such. I'll probably make a separate global for those that want all that fancy branded gear and stuff not worn in the NBA, but at this time I'm focusing on what's being worn in the NBA today.

Can you do this to that hexpad, this guy doesnt wear that kind of sleeve, can we see his leg if he wears these socks, can you implement finger sleeves!!!!!! lol omg are you guys kidding me! This dude is working hours upon hours and all you people do is complain about the stupidiest stuff!! And on top of it, he's not asking for a dime! You people need to be more grateful for what people are putting out there for OUR pleasure. Why dont you guys write to 2k and complain about finger sleeves lol Cam, do what you do and don't let peoples tedious requests slow you down. Make a product that you love and F the rest.
DJNIKEL wrote:Not sure what me being new to pc gaming has to do with anything. Been gaming all my life but decided to build myself a pc recently and that make my point not valid? All I'm saying is that I'm reading a lot of whining complaints and stupid requests. I'm sorry that I find finger sleeves and I promise rubber bands tedious and unimportant additions. Unbelievable.
I've gotten used to it at this point man. I don't mind the requests honestly I just get disturbed when they become demands or when 1 person wants things a certain way just for themselves. It makes a lot more work for me and makes me feel like all my work is for nothing as it's not even what people makes people happy. I don't mind not getting paid, but do appreciate those that have donated to me in the past as it does motivate me to keep on pushing. Honestly what's been holding up this release has been the plethora of requests as it's lead to me having to do a lot more work than I usually do. I've decided to withhold certain requests though so I can get this release out already and just include them in v12 or like v11.6
hot_wyre21 wrote:"new to pc gaming"... that says it all. Many of these complaints are either posters feedback on the global, or valid questions regarding features that people enjoyed in older versions. Many of the post/questions/requests have (imo) improved the global and have made the game much more enjoyable to play.... so dont jump down everyones throat for being "whiney" and "nitpickey"
that being said... cant wait for the 11.5 updates, keep up the good work!
I agree some posts have improved the global whereas others have confused me to what exactly people want. Some people love anything anyone releases and call it amazing or best global ever even if they add just like 1 thing. I see people gushing over a new global just because it has D.Rose knee pads when all that takes is importing an old texture with the click of a button lol. So I mean some people are easily fascinated but as long as the people that enjoy my work are happy that's all that matters. Thanks for the support man and sorry for taking so long to release this version.

I agree making suggestions is always helpful as I'd like to keep things as close to realism as possible. But some requests within the past 5-10 posts aren't necessarily in that category and that's when I must decline (for example colored socks, no one in the NBA wears them)

[Cam]. I'm sure it'll worth the wait for us.
Thanks for the patience man, I've been working hard to get this out to you guys but ended up getting sick again so I've spent a lot more time sleeping than I'd like to admit. But I'm determined to get this out to you guys.
denas wrote:I would suggest making all accessories branded. Nike, Adidas etc. It would be cool to see Nike tick in head bands, or Adidas on elbow pads or wrist bands. And the default sleeve should have an Adidas or Nike sign.. And that goes for leg accessories also. I know many would think what difference does it make, but when you think about it, in real life all accessories are made by brands, even for eg. Paul Milsap's plain black sleeve is made by Adidas (with Adidas logo). So by adding these small things just adds that piece of realism and makes the game feel more official... Just as 2k replaced default shoes with Nike, its not mind blowing but surely looks 100 times better...
I saw you post this on SJ's thread and I agree and disagree with certain points. Making branded accessories has a sense of realism but lacks accuracy. If I were to brand arm sleeves Adidas then every player who wears an arm sleeve would be wearing Adidas which is far from accurate as only roughly 5% of the NBA wear Adidas arm sleeves. Nike arm sleeves aren't used at all and if I'm not mistaken the common arm sleeves/leg accessories worn in the NBA are actually logo-less. The only ones that have logos are Adidas and I believe that's due to an agreement between the NBA and Adidas. 2k didn't replace default shoes with Nike either sadly, there are still a good amount of players that wear those ugly default shoes
Evan Turner for example. Great suggestion, I don't mean to completely shoot down your idea, but for the moment I'll have to hold off on this one as there would be a lot of conflicts of accuracy for those that do enjoy that sense of realism and for roster makers when they're editing accessories. It'd be nice if 2k gave you the choice to choose what brand of said accessory you'd like to wear, in that case I'd make a whole buncha branded accessories
seanbarkley wrote:LOVE what youy are doing Cam, Keep it up!! I just suggest 2 different lenghts: hex leg sleeves shorter than non-hexed. That's how players are wearing them currently.
Thanks bro! I was going to do this however lengthening the layer for knee sleeves effects both hex and non-hexed
I'm in the midst of making knee pads into hexed knee sleeves like D.Rose wears, but it's gonna somewhat conflict with players who actually wear knee pads (Rondo, MCW, etc.) so I dunno if the change is gonna be permanent; gahh so many accessories so little layers
chris7 wrote:Great Work Cam!Worth the waiting!
Thanks bro! and thank you for your patience!
Once again guys sorry for the delay in the release, I've been sick again though thankfully nothing too crazy leading me to have to go to the hospital again, just been needing bed rest. I'm in the midst of putting the final touches on 11.5 but thought I'd address certain additions that had been mentioned or requested earlier that I'll be withholding until the next release when I'm feeling a little better/when I have more time.
~Finger Sleeves -- (Blender isn't cooperating as much as I'd like it to be and dealing with such a small area with the provided layers is making things looking not as real as I like things to be upon releasing my work.)
~Adidas Knee Pads and Ankle Wraps with Socks + Ankle Braces -- (The textures look awful in my opinion as they're so pixelated due to restrictions of being 64x64 or 128x128 it just doesn't look good. Also with Lagoa's new body mods and each accessory being elongated it just makes this concern of mine even more exaggerated) In the mean time the padded calf sleeve while remain Rose's leg gear and if you really can't take the placement of the pad and the lack of skin showing I'm sorry
~"Even Longer Knee Sleeves" -- (I kind of explained this one earlier as with Lagoa editing each leg accessory to fit his new longer legs, the way I've lengthened the Knee sleeves is just about as long as they'll get will remaining accurate, so in a way they are the "even longer knee sleeves"
)
~Editing Lagoa's Accessories -- After checking through all of his body types there are a ton of accessories that are bugged sadly. Fixing each and every one will delay the release even more and I feel bad holding the release any longer.
I hope you guys can understand why I've decided to hold off on these additions, especially for what was intended to be just a small update of a previous release (beginning with just 11.1 going to 11.5 and rather than going to 12 which would mean a big update which I had bigger plans for) I believe these additions won't truly make or break the game as they are minor aesthetics (though I know some do want them, including myself) so I will continue to work on them. I do apologize; but I can at least say that when I release 12 I'll include most if not all of these additions; maybe even a small update like 11.6 to add these. I'm gonna release 11.5 soon hopefully as maybe a BETA and we'll go from there guys
Edit: I've boiled it down to this -- would you guys
A. Like a release of 11.5 with the aforementioned additions withheld to get a release sooner
or
B. Wait longer for a release of 11.5 with the additions added?
Let me know guys
