30 HD Arenas // Miami Heat released

yes this is just a rough exemple of things i test for sur as it is for now it looks not that good but if i manage to increase reflection map i will be able to add details and save the playoff logo.

Btw does someone has a save in mycarreer or other where you are playing the playoff currently to test things?

Does it have to be my career? Because I have a save of my Spurs season mode where I made it to the playoffs. Would this work for you? I'd be happy to test it for you.

No i don't care if mycarreer or not just a match where i can make test if playoff logo will appear correctly.

really happy to read you're keep improving your already good job. If you fix reflections your courts will be my choice for sure, but if you add other details, maaaan... can't wait!

You have really improved a lot. I'm just gonna grab your 30 courts when you are all set and done

Stoeck if you want I can try them out for you, but you can also do it yourself in a matter of seconds. You can just go to Game Modes -> Playoffs -> New and you start right away from the playoffs stage. But if you want me to try them out I can do so too.

Imo the best courts on 2k14, im loving the footprints in the painted area, it makes the courts look so much more realistic.

Still very good

can we expect classic courts ?

I can beta test as well if needed. [:

I'm working on the V4.
What's new ?

Each floor is made of an unique wood with an unique build scheme. No court will have same texture on the floor.
Added a better reflect map to increase some details of volume in the paint mainly and around the court to remove this flat monoton floors
Fixing over abused reflection
everything is vectorized to increase precision of the textures

here are some exemple of incoming releases :

Looking good.

Oh that Cavs court and all of them are beautiful

Ya, dude. That Cavs court is just another level.

Now, I can't wait for V4

Hmm it may be a stretch but that cavs court is one of the best courts i have seen on 2k, the others are good also.

Those looks pretty.

Hmmm, I think that for some of the V3 courts, it's way too shiny and too many reflections.

Would be great if you could release a version with less reflections, since the colors are definitely better in V3, not to mention the fantastic addition of the footprints in the paint!

But take your time! Your work has been great. Please finish your work on V2 first

I agree the reflections in V2 were much better.

I disagree with you guys...reflections in V3 are much better than V2... V2 courts were a bit too dry and looked fake. I love the reflections of V3. Keep it up stoeck

You do realize these are basketball courts and not your living room wood floor. I would agree that reflections are a bit overdone in the wooded area. can you imagine a real court being this shiny, players would be slipping all over the place. Shiny looks pretty but a little less shine is realistic. I will go on to say that not all courts are overdone but i would agree that the mavs court is a bit much. I haven't played on all the courts to give my opinion on others.

I was on the NBA Finals on my career and i'm on the Indiana Pacers and we played against the Kings, and the Kings have the Finals logo but the Pacers they don't. I'll try to test the other courts on playoff mode

EDIT: Tried your courts on the playoffs mode, and the only courts that has playoff logos are: The Bucks, Magic, and Kings.

Great! Those v4 are jaw-dropping!
Can't wait Props stoeck!

First of all I don't have wood floor in my living room . Now regarding the courts, take a look at this video:

phpBB [video]

The mavs court is much closer to V3 than V2. Sometimes the free throw circle line is not visible due to the reflections, players' mirror images appear in the paint, etc. etc. Maybe it's a bit more subtle in real life than it is in V3 but as I already said it's closer to V3 than V2. If it's too bright for you, maybe you can play around with your settings in case you use sweetfx or enb.

I wouldn't mind if the shine and reflections were reduced just a tiny bit, but I would definitely not want it to become anything close to V2. Just my opinion. After all it's stoeck's work and he has already released a lot of versions that we can choose from.

The beauty is if you don't like stoeck's work, there's way more superb courts by other patch makers you can choose from.

finally i get the playoff logo with hd court in a single template no need to reload any files .... long to do but coming soooooooooon :p


i will also use the official game lines so it will take more time to edit court

yessssss!
Can't wait. I know i'm boring

Take your time stoeck!

Have you actually played basketball before?? On a court I mean?? Because every shiny court that I have played on the court was shiny because of the way they waxed and buffed the floor.. And the shinier the court usually means the more wax they used and my shoes would literally be sticking to the floors on these type of courts.. So no they wouldn't be "slipping all over the place.."

Great news man! Looking forward to it.
