4096 px court floor texture- updated "calculation file"

[ruckzell17]

I try to edit the fresh wizard court like yours sir, but the only things to do is to change the parquet size texture (2048x2048) and the logo texture to 5888x3054 and leave the bmp texture at ease with 256x256 texture to correct the player reflection to the floor...

I follow all the directions in your tutorial,,
and this is the result, what im missing master?

[JaoSming]

you have to edit the 3D model to stretch that texture over the court. You'd be better off using a floor already stretched like that

[exrxixxx]

Ruzkezell, all steps are executed OK.
Now as Jao say you have to

Open file with NBA2x Mod tool
ExportRes MODEL 0, Part 0

Import to Blender, (choose VIEW - Front)resize one of subfile, don't remember which one for Wizards court, but probably object 0-2 imo.
Just scale X and Y positions in EDITOR mode.
You have to read some tutorials how to use Blender if you never used to.

Then import Back to Model 0, Part 0 with NBA2kx Mod Tool

***
I could agree with Jao that it could be a giid idea to instal your texture on Sixers or IamLlliard courts if you do not suceed with Blender

[tatlopuyo]

can you please look into the team _xxx.iff files..theres only a few dxt files there.hope u can help.thanks.

I did not notice your messages earlier as this thread was moved from other modding section.

I will take a look at teamxxx.iff.

All black crowed means you have damaged 3D models when imported your textures. Your texture had be moved more (pink are as in tutoroal, raise the value). Delete the file, can't be fixed easily, try again with a new one

thank you bro.i cant seem to get it to work up to now.your help will be much appreciated.

no idea if you want to update your spreadsheet file, but the following will reverse byte order automatically

Code: Select all

=MID(A1;7;2)&MID(A1;5;2)&MID(A1;3;2)&MID(A1;1;2)

Replace A1 with the appropriate cell

Ya, that is interesting, I will take a look and update if this is more convenient for users.
Thanks.

Personaly me I never use that spreadsheet, It is much easier and faster to use Windows Hex calculator.
But I used that spreadsheet in order to avoid some more borring explanations how and why.

[JaoSming]

and it works really well too, but with that formula, and the HEX2DEC/DEC2HEX ones, you should be able to automate the entire thing

sorry if wrong thread.
sir. I need your help, pls answer me...

Hmmm... this tutorial is not about textures.
These are principals, knowledges how to import higher resolution textures to 2K *.iif files.

Create your own texture for learning purposes.

[Phreezy P]

How do I do this with R4zors method.

Take someone's already made floor file (iamlillard, sixers85, etc)
Update texture to your liking.
Do not share your achievevents with others, otherwise you'll be a thief

I don't wanna create a topic for that but if you wanna generate your own texture floor from a huge wood image you can use this little software fucking handy !!!!

Thanks for a good link.
I do not make floors, but this soft might help somebody

Hi guys,

I used the exrxixxx, techinique to increase the bump map to 1024. But strangely it don't apply regulary on the texture ( cf screenshot)
Sometimes it is good and take the good width and sometimes it looks like streched to the double on some part of the court.

On the screen they are not aligned but this is not a problem i can scale and move the floor texture but i need a regular bump map to do it. Does someone knows how to fix that ?

in addition my texture and my bump have the same hard lines, i could of course only use the bump to draw the lines but i don't like the effect it provides, it is not enough sharpen when no direct light




maybe more clean with this exemple

& here is the bumpmap '(actually a jpg of the bmp)

[stoeck]

Ok i found it is the 3d model who is reponsible of this mess....let's go and learn 3d !! :p

[stoeck]

Hi guys, as i'm trying to reproduce this technique for learning purpose i need some help at one point.
Entering the new texture ain't a problem thx to erxiixxxx (sorry for x number maybe missing :p) and this wonderfull tutorial. But as i scale the center part in blender it never fit the size i give (cf screens)
When i open your exemple in washington or sixers85 files the lines of extended center area nicely fits the court border and texture get applied everywhere in the mesh. When i do that the texture only applies approx half the way it should. What i'm missing here ?




Thx for your help and making me less noob at editing :p !!

[JaoSming]

its just how the texture is UV mapped to the model. Gotta make it even bigger so the edges get to where you want them

[stoeck]

ok thx i'll try that !
i already did but maybe i did it wrong

[stoeck]

Just scaling UV won't do the trick like exrixxx does on his template. Did you remap UV to get that much faces on the texture ?

[stoeck]

Beeeeeuhh game has cache (((((((( it is ok. UV scale looks to only affect the size of the bump map when overlaping a texture...mb i'm wrong...

[exrxixxx]

Sorry stoeck, just now found how many new messages you posted here.
Trying to read them...

[stoeck]

No problem i find out !!

but another ask, is this method not compatible with some court? i have instant crash when court loading with clippers & bulls (so far just those two but didn't tried on all) ?
