[adelubu]

just want report....

Larry Johnson from 98-99 Knicks missing his cyberface...

thx..and great job btw

[V13]

Antonio Harvey (PF/C, Blazers 99-00) has wrong height and weight in UBR v17 - he is supposed to be 2,11 m (6 ft 11 in) and 113 kg ( 250 lb) , not 1,91 m and 83 kg.

And Larry Johnson (Knicks 98-99) has his CF in my game, so maybe adelubu installed UBR wrong or maybe there is another problem with his game.

[HAWK23]

Adelubu/V13 - I'll check out both of your comments

[JaoSming]

*2001-2002 Boston Celtics

I'm....so.....happy!

[HAWK23]

just a few odds and ends left before V18 is done... it's going to be a sweet update with 19 new teams

[AMG824]

Awesome stuff! :bd

Kinda new here but some of the teams don't work for me, like it loads forever in the "Lineups" Section of the game after you choose the teams. Some teams work just fine though. I wonder what's causing the hiccup?

[HAWK23]

AMG... what's causing it is that you haven't installed all the files.. you MUST put ALL of the files in the main NBA2K12 folder (besides the roster file which belongs in the SAVES folder). I believe you have not put the portrait.iff files in the main NBA2K folder... that is probably what's causing your infinite loading problem.

[HAWK23]

I spent some time today making a surprise team that will be included... hope to release this gigantic update either tonight or tomorrow

[JaoSming]

woot woot woot

so is this your last big update to this?

[jonhpipepipe]

Hope not folks... I'm looking for some jersey creators to help in the jersey addition (i ressarch a lot of pictures all the week long), and....

I still will send those teams to Hawk:

1) The Original Celtics;
2) 1967/68 Pittisburgh Pipers;
3) 1968/69 Oakland Oaks;
4) 1970/71 Utah Stars;
5) Kentucky Colonels;
& a big combo of...
6) 1969-73 Indiana Pacers.

This will close the gap with all NBA Champions and ABA ones, and the most important teams ever in the Greatest Project Ever Assembled in the History of Video Games...

Problems??? Yes (players spots), but we're so close from a happing ending... This a dream come true, no other word describe my feelings right now!

[HAWK23]

Jao - I'm sure it will be one of the last BIG updates... there will still be some tweaking along the way... but I think it's safe to say we're nearing the end of "BIG" updates.

Johnpipepipe - no... sorry.

[jonhpipepipe]

That's ok Hawk, i'll keep working by myself... Don't woory about it, ok?
That's an important moment, and i don't want to be selfish, i'm really, really happy about this BIIIIIG AND HUUUGE UPDATE!

Hope you don't have big issues uploading everything, and it's been a pleasure working with you, Jay, Big "O", Brenzon and everybody involved in this great project, by the way thanks for the opportunity to show something worthy.

Brillant job, a MASTER PIECE!

THAT'S ME RIGHT NOW... (ALMOST CRYING) heheheheheh

[sevin0seven]

98-99 Rockets has been turned in.

I spent some time today making a surprise team that will be included... hope to release this gigantic update either tonight or tomorrow

[HanamichiSakuragi]

hey hawk23 im from in philippines can i request a cyberface these picture viewtopic.php?f=142&t=86594 to cyberface thanks

[HAWK23]

Sorry Hanamichi - I don't know how to do cyberfaces unfortunately

[MJALLDAY]

The 11-12 Heat and Thunder? That doesn't make any sense.

[HAWK23]

Alright.... V18 is finished

I'm going to make the readme file, upload it to filefront, and hope that the download link is visible when I wake up in the morning

[HAWK23]

The 11-12 Heat and Thunder? That doesn't make any sense.

I'm confused at how you could POSSIBLY think a roster that includes hundreds (literally) of championship teams, runner ups, and other solid playoff teams since 1947 would make no sense to include the 2011-2012 champion and runner up.

[jellyno1]

WOW~~~I CAN'T WAIT!! THX~~ YOUR GREAT WORKS INSPIRE ME ALWAYS

[fixor]

Again a great work thanks

[checka]

Hawk do you have problems with the crowd being neutral ? I play with t-wolves 03-04 but no matter if I'm winning or losing the crowd doesn't get behind me at all
Thx for all your hard work, Looking forward to v18

[fixor]

for the timberwolf 03-04 i don't have the shot clock for the last 6 seconds just a black screen

[leovince23]

larry bird's hair must be tweaked.. 85-86, 91-92 celtics, dream team. i think he had shorter hair by then..


01-02 celtics should be added on the next release.. as well as 93-94 bulls, 95-96 lakers..

[leovince23]

hope hawk23 and crew would include the following teams in future release:

91-92 lakers
93-94 bulls
94-95 lakers
95-96 lakers (with magic johnson) http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/LAL/1996.html
01-02 celtics
05-06 grizzlies
06-07 cavs
07-08 pistons
09-10 celtics


have my fingers crossed..

[HAWK23]

Woke up this morning and V18 successfully uploaded and the link is live and working. Just going to make some preview pictures then I'll release/link it so people can download. Should be up in about an hour.

[maholisoa]

If this is the last update, huge thanks for everyone who contributed to this amazing project...Hope to see you again with NBA 2k13

[HAWK23]

Thanks Maholisoa - I imagine this is the last big content update. Tweaking / fixing glitches / perhaps putting the rookies on their real teams after the draft... little things like that.

I appreciate your donations a ton... please let me know if there is anything specific I can do for you from here on out... it meant a lot.

[HAWK23]

Also... for those of you who are going to mention:

"Shouldn't the team be called 2013 Draft class, not 2012"

Yes... it should... I goofed up and didn't realize it until this morning. Technically 2012-2013 Draft Class would be the real name... so it's partially correct.

[MJALLDAY]

The 11-12 Heat and Thunder? That doesn't make any sense.

I'm confused at how you could POSSIBLY think a roster that includes hundreds (literally) of championship teams, runner ups, and other solid playoff teams since 1947 would make no sense to include the 2011-2012 champion and runner up.

Because they're already in the game. It seems like a waste of time and space but thanks for the update just the same.

[JaoSming]

I think he means that those two teams will be added and preserved as they are, and be "duplicated" or updated along side the post-draft and free agency Heat and Thunder.

But wait, Rookies?! Damn man, I can't wait to get into this one...

Let me know what you think Jao!

[jonhpipepipe]

Brilliant Job... Nothing else!
Congratulations Hawk & the intire team!

The Greatest Game ever in the History of Sports!
& that's a honor to be a little part of it...

Thank you guys,
Thank you.

[lowtuneduser]

just want to know if this is just isolated case, when i want to see any player stats it's just a blank. sometimes it crushes back to desktop? anyone out there experienced this problem? or can i find any solution? thanks in advance!


great work for this mod! salute to the modders and all contributors!

[sevin0seven]

woot! another awesome update. brilliant work guys! BRILLIANT! i'm happy to be part of the last BIG update released.

[tmjohns18]

great work for this mod! salute to the modders and all contributors!

I've been having my game crash, when I right click for player card it crashes the game. Happens both on the 2012/13 rookies FA's and regular roster players.

[JaoSming]

dont do that then? He got rid of a bunch of values like stats and other stuff to make room for all the extra teams

[lowtuneduser]

I've been having my game crash, when I right click for player card it crashes the game. Happens both on the 2012/13 rookies FA's and regular roster players.

happens to me at all. regular rosters and all legend teams. either will crashed or blank player stats. help is much appreciated.

[lowtuneduser]

oh! now i know. thanks for the quick response sir Jao. i thought it was just me.

[DefJam]

Absolutely great job, big thanks! The mode is perfect and association mode works fine, though I suggest not trying those extra teams with free agents 99-00s free agents team and that other one, for me those crashed while in association mode.

[HAWK23]

Absolutely great job, big thanks! The mode is perfect and association mode works fine, though I suggest not trying those extra teams with free agents 99-00s free agents team and that other one, for me those crashed while in association mode.

The 99-00 FA Legends and 50-80s FA Legends and Rookie Team are not meant to be played in association lol.... stop trying to find ways to crash the game and just play as normal!!!

As Jao mentioned earlier.... if the game crashes when you click a player's card then just don't frickin' do that! There is no reason to go to a player's card anyway... go to nba.com if you want to look up a player's stats.... you guys are ridiculous sometimes!


Yes - Sevin0Seven - big props to you in this update - you did a great job with all the new teams you did

[lowtuneduser]

looking to a player stats that turns out to crashed the game and ask for some help here to see whether if it's normal or somethings go wrong is not ridiculous.

respect.

thanks for this great mod again.

[123rockstar]

Thank you so much HAWK!!!~

The added 2013 Rookies with the Legends are incredible! This game really looks like NBA2K13 already!! OH YEEAAAH!!!

[aaron91]

Hawk I'd like to join the chorus and extend my sincere congratulations and thanks for this wonderful project. I have some suggestions for the All-Time teams as well.

Deron Williams to the Nets replacing Mike Gminski (they could really use the star power to compete with the other all time teams)
Rick Barry to the Nets (Had several fantastic years with the team. Led them to the ABA finals and still holds many of their all-time records)
Billy Paulitz to the Nets replacing Chris Morris (They desperately need a center and Paulitz in his prime is better than any of the other big men on that roster)
Tyson Chandler to the Bobcats (they dont even have enough players to round out their roster like everyone else's)
Tyson Chandler to the Mavericks replacing Brad Davis (their current big men options stink and Chandler made them the champion team they were. losing Davis isnt big because he wouldnt be getting much playing time behind Nash and Kidd anyway)
Mark Jackson (from 93 Clippers) to the Knicks replacing Bill Bradley (desperate need for a point guard and bradley while a good role player was never a next level type player. 93 Clippers Jackson is suggested because it most replicates his time on the Knicks)
Monta Ellis to the Warriors replacing Al Attles (Its Monta! Hes a great video game player)
Michael Jordan to the Wizards (He was their best player for a while and its Michael Jordan)

There are also some players who are on All-Time teams but their best year isn't taken which I find fairly puzzling. Especially when there are better versions of that player already in the roster. Some examples include:

Paul Pierce
Robert Parish
Kobe Bryant (Only a 93 on the All-Time Lakers and 00's Legends? Theres a 96 Version of him in the roster)
Kareem (On the Lakers, Only a 90?)
Lebron (On the Cavs)
Andre Iguodala
Carmelo Anthony (Knicks)
Tony Parker
Steve Nash
Wilt Chamberlain (A 96 on the 76ers squad, hes a 99 on one of the teams!)

Also as a side note does it seem to anyone else that some of the ratings on the 08 Redeem Team are a tad inflated? Some of the players dont have those ratings on any other team currently in the roster even when their best years are included.

[ER5013]

Lebron (On the Cavs)
Wilt Chamberlain (A 96 on the 76ers squad, hes a 99 on one of the teams!)

Kobe: That 96 version was the Redeem Team but there is a 95 rating of Kobe on the Kobe-Pau champion teams
Lebron: There is only 1 Lebron Cavs team and he had a 95 rating. 99 rating only belongs to Heat.
Wilt: He only had a 99 on the Warriors and 99 rating Chamberlain exists for the All-Time Warriors. The only ingame Wilt 76ers team puts Wilt at a 96.

Adding to your point however, Russell Westbrook has an 84 on the All-Time Sonics team which appears nowhere else in the roster. Why just not use the Westbrook from the Current Thunder? It might free up 1 spot.

There are also some players who are on All-Time teams but their best year isn't taken which I find fairly puzzling. Especially when there are better versions of that player already in the roster. Some examples include:

Kobe Bryant (Only a 93 on the All-Time Lakers and 00's Legends? Theres a 96 Version of him in the roster)
Lebron (On the Cavs)
Wilt Chamberlain (A 96 on the 76ers squad, hes a 99 on one of the teams!)

Kobe: That 96 version was the Redeem Team but there is a 95 rating of Kobe on the Kobe-Pau champion teams
Lebron: There is only 1 Lebron Cavs team and he had a 95 rating. 99 rating only belongs to Heat.
Wilt: He only had a 99 on the Warriors and 99 rating Chamberlain exists for the All-Time Warriors. The only ingame Wilt 76ers team puts Wilt at a 96.

Thanks ER - you made all the points I was too lazy to type out... and to answer your question....because if I were to "mirror" the current Westbrook to the All-Time Sonics it would fuck up association (I think). However that's not to say I couldn't just edit the Westbrook on the All-Time Team. Any player with a bright gold background color on an all-time team means that there is a specific player slot JUST for that player for an all-time team because there wasn't a good enough representation of the player on one of the year-specific retro teams so I felt it justified to add a whole different spot for that player. Either that or it's a current player in the NBA that could not be mirrored because I believe it would have messed around with association and current nba teams so I opted to use extra space to duplicate the players.

Aaron man - give it a rest and try to be happy. I don't want the all-time team players to be the best year a player ever had with the team.... I want it to be a healthy average of how that player played for the team during their career. So if player X played as a overall 99 for one year but that was not the norm, and was typically playing at a overall 88 level, I would rather have the overall 88 because it was more representative of how that player played with that team. Just please try to be happy. I've never had so many complaints about the all-time rosters. There are 19 damn players per team... try to be happy.

Ah, thanks for the explanation. I'll just edit the his ratings then. Thank you!
