First thing I am doing at midnight is testing Gregs tool from last year. Reason being: I may be able to pull the global file and see a couple other files, I was able to with the 2K16 Explorer tool with 2K17 when the 2K17 first came out.

The dream would be to copy the results from this genarator to cheat engine (or whatever other programs) and get it directly into the game...

One piece of advice, don't steal other peoples work like you did this year with Pinoy's jerseys. At least have the courtesy to ask first, you'd be surprised how willing people are when it comes to sharing work. Giving credit is huge on this forum.

I know the rules here on this forum. I saw how some users used my work without credits this year. I have lent some own textures to tgsogood for example. You calm that if I use something of someone I will put the author’s name in my credits.
You should appreciate everything I did for 2k17...
I have collaborated a lot and I will continue working on mods for this community.

Lets keep things on topic. 2K18 is just getting started. This thread is not for accusations.

I now have the game downloaded and will briefly look at what I have on my PC to see if I can find anything.

Edit: forgot its just pre-download data

So here we go....

The explorer works on the first archive I tried, I'm just having trouble extracting certain textures.

Update #1:
Nevermind, these are what the Nike jersey textures look like downsized. A completely new template:

They changed the texture map of the face models.... which means we won't be able to convert faces that easy.

Different template but it looks easy to convert it from 2k17 jerseys.

I was able to import certain iff files, however iff files with edited textures won't work for me. I tried editing the Sixers home jersey, but it makes the players invisible. Checking player models now...

EDIT:
Nevermind, the png files are structured different now. So face and png files won't be easily converted:

    Using a VPN.

    Also, FYI to people who try to import stuff into archives. Don't do it right now, only certain .iff files work and if they don't work then it fucks up your archive.

    No promises as far as the editor goes. I can't afford the game right now and I doubt Greg will have it, so we may not have full modding for awhile, unless someone else makes a tool before Greg can update.

    I already forgot the modding folder for 2k17, but i loved how easy it was to drag and drop into the folder, will it be the same for 2k18?

    If the plugin is compatible or can be made compatible, I would assume so.

    Nobody send any donations my way, please. Before I even consider taking your money or anything like that, I want to first get confirmation from Greg that he plans on updating the tool. In the past, he has been very busy, and I haven't spoken to him recently so I don't know his current situation. I would hate to get the game with your guys help and then what you put money to doesn't come to fruition anyway.
