U R B - WHERE SIM HAPPENS ! 2023 Roster Preview! 11TH November

[dereklee]

hi skoadam

1. After loading 1993 roster, if going to CAL mode, game will crash to desktop.
2. For 1998 roster, Bobcat is still playing (but I think this can't be fixed ) home court is black and all player name are blank.

1. generally CAL wont work with retro rosters, to many changes in roster file, but u can try with deleting online folder and play with interntet connection shut down.
2. 98 roster? but u mean season/asso mode right? well FYI there is no option to choose historical schedule for all retro seasons. There is only one schedule for 30 current teams so u must see all teams in asso mode. Just simulate matches beetwen Bobcats. Bobcats(Toronto, Vancouver earlier) will be worst team in the NBA and players are set to 25 overalls.

1. but it seems CAL doesn't work only in 1993 roster, I tried 1994, 2005 and 2010 rosters, no problem for them.
2. For 1998 I also play CAL, anyway it's no a big problem, thanks!

well good to hear CAL works with retros. But the most strange thing. 1994 is based on 1993 roster so wtf. Maybe i will have to clean 1993 roster with some little things around the roster. Im nnot sure, but in free time i will look into.

[gabello74]

Please, somebody says me how can i get to unlock Julius Erving in '77 '85 sixers and Jabbar in '77 bucks

i was finally able to edit rgb shoes correctly. it was because i was using 3dm mod tool before but i guess you can only import shoes with 2kx modtool (which didnt work til windows 8.1). so i have been making some adjustments to jampasirs 93 shoe colorways that he did incorrectly. im going to fix some of the cfs from 93 also. wayman tisdale is WAY off and pervis ellison needs his dreads removed along with a hand full of players that need hairstyle edits. ill probably do a few attribute changes here and there but dont want to spend too much time on it. can you think of anything the 93 roster might need?

im going to edit some things from global to have something that looks like ankle braces with short and medium socks. if i can figure out how to properly import shorts and bodytypes into blender ill try to make some shorts more appropriate for late 90s and a body type between athletic and fat for shaq. also some other era specific accessories like bicep bands etc... so if anyone knows anything about editing these type of things please share or point me to a tutorial, thanks.

there is many players with off cfs. I will prepare some short list with most needed fix. Ofc other users can propose some players, but please choose most failed cfs.
Excited about other stuff

@portland

maybe you'll disagree but since i was checking a lot of 1998 pics lately, it seems that in 97/98 'sheed was more time without cornrows than with them. also he had that specific, "cleaner" beard type, not like in his later seasons:




also, each pic i check from that season makes me more convinced that we should try '90s style shorts for 1998 mod.

Skoadam.

I know I made a mistake by not backing up my files prior to copying over your files from Download 1 and 2, though I dont even see an updated roster in the game. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

[portlandblazer]

@Madball

yes, i disagree. you cant use trading cards as reference since most of the pics are from the previous season. sheed changed his hair from game to game and i remember him having cornrows most of the time. (diehard blazers fan here who has never missed a televised game in his life). i did a younger sheed with fixed beard and no cornrows if you wish to use that instead but when he didnt rock the rows he had a short fro.

about the shorts, im working on a late 90s length but this will mean 2 separate globals, one for current nba and one for retro mods. which will also mean you will have to backup both global files or dare i suggest download jsgme hahahaha

Bro can u use global from Lagoa as a base? its very important for us. Yes we want to use accurate length for late 90' but we want all other stuff from Lagoa 2- hope you will understand
any progress on Schayes or Maxiell?
And please consider making Wesley Matthews from your Blazers(hehe) with biceps band? Black band.

[MadbaLL]

@skoadam

thanks for the latest update

and fantastic change log


regarding two globals, i don't know... i'm not for that solution if it means we need to "load" each global before certain mod. if we can't fix the shorts with current global fro 1998 roster, then i think normal 90style is after all better solution than current shorts style, which is too long and baggy.

[skoadam]

Note: part2 for newest V12 ready to download
Info: Word about 2014 roster, current roster will be updated after 20/40/60/80 games for all teams in real season. Reason? I like to wait and see whats tendency is, of players, coaches, used colors of accessories etc. I always doing like this and i believe its the best method. Thats why i dont prefer day-to-day updates because its useless. All of those players which are unknown are waived now, even with signed contracts, so in my opinion there is no need to care about them, they are just to fill empty spot for one or two games, without even one second on court. Same thing with rotations, i like to wait and see if this will be some long therm change in S5 or its just one game set. Things in NBA are static in some aspects. Ratings, please feel free if u disagree with some overalls or some specific rating but remember i will recognize if u fan of player u want to upgrade. My primary rule. Overalls means nothing or almost nothing. Second rule LBJ did not get GOD mode in my roster.
One more, because i decided to leave "injured and uninjured versions" idea, u will find players in 12-15 spots(without injury set) those players will be serious injured, some day-to-day or maximum month will be not included and players will stay in roatations. Some players right now, are in rotations for example Harrison Barnes, he get many minutes from me because i believe he will be used as SF and PF(in small ball rotation) from the bench, its just my thoughts about rotations if this not happen i will update this after 20games.

If i will gone after 10th december it means i will look for a job, all things go bad way and i will lost my job.
btw if u want to help give me idea for small buisness(for 1-3 people) which is revolutionary idea in your country.

faux ankle brace with medium socks preview


something of note about shorts length. 2ks player models have been flawed for years. people complained that the legs were to thick which they appeared to be but actually the legs werent that much too thick just need to be proportioned better in relation to the upperbody. that said, the medium shorts in my opinion look too short, not in relation to the knee but overall length.

if and when i figure out how to edit shorts i will be editing the current length to make them shorter a tad. so if you dont mind current players wearing shorter shorts than swapping globals wont be a problem (not a problem for me because i rarely play current rosters and if i decide to swap globals i can very easily)

@skoadam
i can use lagoa or whatever global. im just experimenting now and trying to learn what is possible. but i dont see a way around having 2 separate globals, one for retro and one for current. maybe dont include my edited global in main folders, just have it as an option for anybody interested???

[skoadam]

portlandblazer, great preview
i see no problem with two globals, who will want to use it will use it. I will just recommend your global for retro roster in first post or/and create some folder inside one of the latest packs. Keep continue

[MadbaLL]

ok guys, it's up to skoadam in the end.

i just don't feel like having two globals just because of rosters. i also play majority of time with retros, but sometimes i want to play current one and i don't feel like quiting the game, heading to global.iff on my hdd and copying over it. and the same procedure back when i want retros. it's not convinient in my opinion.

my suggestion is, either to put normal 90style shorts for '98, either leaving it as it is now. or as the last possible solution that crosses my mind - posibillity to edit shorts in ONE; current global. but i doubt this is possible, so i stand behind first two suggestions.

[skoadam]

guys one thing i notice it now i think after 6months haha. Why in the hell all of my roster works without real nba schedule? mean when i start the game and see team to select i cant choose current nba games to play quick game? whats wrong? i always start with OKC and MIA, where i can change this?

ill tell ya whats not convenient, in my opinion...having to edit all of these game saves with no prior experience and very little help as to how to do it. spending countless hours trying to get 5 different editing tools to work properly on my machine. researching techniques on using the tools. researching players attributes, tendencies, play style etc..., finding pictures of EVERY player and applying accurate accessories. finding the names and pics of specific shoe models made 20 years ago. having to read posts from members who always seem to have an opinion on how they want the rosters made but wont take the time to even download any of the tools and contribute to the rosters constructively.

sorry if i sound like a prick but nobody is forcing you to dl any global. you can always get leftos tool and edit the shorts to 90s style yourself, it really isnt that hard. the point is i GO HARD at making the game look and feel as realistic as possible for ME first and foremost and exiting the game, clicking 2 things in JSGME and rebooting is small price to me obviously considering---see above ^

there are only 3 shorts in the game and no way of adding more, only changing existing ones. the 80s shorts dont have cloth movement, so while there arent any 80s rosters YET, i dont want to edit these. i also plan on editing other accessories so it will conflict with what current players wear. so there is no way around 2 globals.

[MadbaLL]

i will add nothing more than i wrote in my previous posts. i respect your determination and work to get these rosters to a new level. but we have different opinions about this and it seems it will stay that way, which is of course normal.

[skoadam]

Guys stop it. Mad u must understand one thing, some guys here tryin to help improve this project, u dont have to post that u dont use it because u dont like overwriting. Author mention that its immposible to make it in one global, universal for all rosters- and u continue to comment. This is what we talk about. Really no need to argue, we all here to look and work better.

Got good news from iamlillard. I believe in nearly future we will be able to play retro rosters with HD courts from IamLillard without using texmod. I dont have to tell ya, what this mean for this project. Im so excited.
Some courts looks just extremly awfull, i believe iamlillard will fix this soon, after he finish all of current courts.

[skoadam]

You want to win again champs with Olajuwon or stop Rockets team with young Penny&Shaq duo? First return of Jordan? Here we go haha

@skoadam

as one of the persistant users of this mod, i think i have right to express my opinon about something. on the other hand, making something more complicated, doesn't always mean it's better or improved. in real life also.

i'm over and out about this debate.

and thanks for the latest roster mod i appreciate it.

[62422]

thanks for 95 season! waiting for 89/90

Yes ofc you can, but in this case it make no sense, because you will be not oblicated to use it. Me(or rather portlandblazer) just giving you possibility to choose. It is just alternative.
Hope you still finding fun with my mods.
