Thanks, Andrew. That "kwod" thing is a tricky one, but the fictional All-Star court is a nice try, isn't it?

@Badger
I made an 2012 All-Star court based on an Orlando court patch by Rix191. Most of this patch is his own work, so he earns the flowers.

The court replaces the original NBA Live 2000 All-Star court (Oakland).

will this work on my nba live 2007?

You already asked that question. :?

And were answered:

hentzman wrote:Or have you wrongly typed 2997 instead of 2007? Then the answer is No!


Which you acknowledged:

nathan wrote:oh..is that so.. too bad.. i really want to have the all star patch arena in my nba 2007. tnx.. could you refer me to other pathes that can be run in my nba live 2007,coz im in my all star game, :applaud: go go go kyrie irving revive the cavs :applaud: (N) lebron.hehehe


And the point was reiterated:

Blake_Bryant wrote:nathan, refer to the 2008 forum bro, u can use their courts there!

Andrew wrote:Indeed, the art files for 07 and 08 are mostly interchangeable. There's no compatibility with 2000.


So why ask the question again? The answer isn't going to be any different.

If you want courts that work in NBA Live 07, stick to the NBA Live 07 and NBA Live 08 sections. NBA Live 2000 courts will not work in NBA Live 07.

First, I made the Kings' Court today. But next, I will go on with the Bulls' court. :wink: And no, I have not finished yet a current roster. I've created the rookies and other players, updated player data and even salaries, but the ratings will take some more time. Please be patient, a roster definitely comes out in the next few weeks.

Very cool. It's a shame you're not doing any work for 08 though, we do need a court patcher to create a couple of updates in light of a recent unfortunate situation which resulted in a ban.

CHICAGO BULLS COURT UPDATE

http://www.sendspace.com/file/zmmvb4

Because it has no line break, I had to convert the on-court script from the original Bulls' binary file (tslg) to a script used in the binary file of the original Bucks' court (tlga). Nice result, isn't it?

@Andrew
Well, I'm a sentimental retro guy, I can't help it. Live 2008 is too much progress. :mrgreen:

I'm not that good in jersey patching, so I'm doing it very rarely. Last year I made a Kings Jersey, and Rix191 also made great jerseys. Are you on xpoing's mailing list? Maybe he can send you last year's jersey patches. Or you take a look into the download section. So long! :wink:

OK, here's another court patch.

NORLINS HORNETS COURT UPDATE
Image
http://www.sendspace.com/file/jz5ghv

Two notes regarding this court. Like in the Bulls' court patch, I converted the on-court script within the binary file (here I used the original 76ers' one, which is my favourite binary file). Now the tricky tlgz script is the far easier tlga script from the original Bucks' court.

The second thing is, the 76ers' binary file has sections (like in the fsh) named tlge, tlgf and tlgg. Using tlgf and tlgg, I can add one Internet address script along the sideline. But I can't double it at the same line.

What you say about that?

Sounds fine to me. With a game as old as NBA Live 2000 you're going to have some limitations with the file formats, so I say do the best you can. I'm sure the efforts will be appreciated. :)

Thanks, Andrew! I will do so then. However, I will try to find a solution.

So, this here would be the Trailblazers' dotcom version.

Image

Now I post only a screenshot, later, maybe, will come a big release with all courts I made.

A few hours and a patch revision later... just a second shot, because it fits in the topic.

I already realeased a T-Wolves' court, but in the course of that "dotcom" thing, I also made an update for that court.

Today, I tried one more time to get that dotcom script at the baseline. And I had a little success. It's at the baseline now, but it's still only one script. In fact, there is another one (at the lower sideline and I made it transparent), but I can't get that second sricpt to the upper sideline. There are too many hex values to change. :cry:

Looking good! As I said before, all you can do is your best within the limitations of the file format, don't worry about minor imperfections caused by those limitations as the results are still fantastic. :)

You're right Andrew, but look at this. Isn't this a happy ending?

Image

There was one texture left in the court fsh, that was unused - the tlge part. It's half the length of the dotcom script at the right side (tlgf and tlgg), so only a short script fits in, but for the T-Wolves' court this is sufficient, as the nba.com script is a short one.

So, I think, this seems to be the most feasible solution. Solved!

OK, this is my last work on this feature. I promise. :)

By the way, T-Wolves have doubled their "timberwolves.com" script this season. The "NBA.COM" script on the left side is gone. Damned!

nice work! it would be cool to see you try to make the Raptors baseline logo slanted like it is in real life so it appears normal from the broadcast camera

In fact, I thought about realizing that baseline logo. I will try my hand at this in the next few days.

OK, I finished the work on that dotcom texture, so I can release a new version of the Timberwolves' court.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

@Qballer

Here's an update for the Toronto Raptors' Court. The realization of that baseline logo is more complicated than I thought. With the desired 3D effect, you can see it properly only from right to left direction, because the script is slanted to the right. But it's not possible to slant the right courts' script to the left. By the way, one texture is used for both ends. Two textures would be better.

Another thing is the angle, when you see the logo. The 3D effect is the stronger the higher the viewing is, but when I play the game in press camera mode, the angle is very low.

Anyway, I made this court with that slanted script and I think, it's a good try.
