headless players? almost immposible, one player maybe, if you have more issues like this read README and install this mod like you should. If its one player let me know who and i will check.

for now, reported issue and confirmed:

- Nets 80's jerseys missing
- Dantley black hands issue.

All will be fixed in next 10h.

[watch123]

For example, the 1985 season Dominic Wilkins, Cleveland's World B. Free, the 76 man team of Charles Barclay, Utah's Mark Eaton and so on, is my wrong installation?

Thank you skoadam

[skoadam]

watch123, this is very good find, i forgot to add whole folder of great and improved cfs from portlandblazer. Hope now everything will be ok.
Uploading part 17 right now, so please be patient, it will take probably an hour.

[watch123]

Thanks to skoadam and Slimm44, I really like your work. Thank you very much

[skoadam]

Ok, part 17 is uploaded, please re-download and paste/overwrite all files into main game folder.

[MadbaLL]

thank you once again guys!

milestone, stardome has been reached and now you can truly enjoy this game and your hard work. you guys really deserve to be written in golden letters of nba 2k13 history!

[skoadam]

MadbaLL,

in a meanwhile, before report storm...hope you discovered already those beauties from my man Pepis

[MadbaLL]

yup, everything is on a highest possible level of perfection!

this is one of the greatest mods in all video games history! you guys should be proud of yourself!

[skoadam]

we discovered bad pasting issue in 2013 roster, it will be updated tommorow.

[SakuragiGT]

Sko,

I have a very small request. I noticed for your 80's rosters, you used the tight shorts but left the upper portion of the jerseys baggy. I'm wondering could you release an alternate version of the 80's rosters where the upper portion of the jersey is tight/static as well? I would certainly do this on my own, but unfortunately no longer have REDMC. Thanks in advance for considering it.

[skoadam]

SakuragiGT, this is not a bad idea, what you think guys? should i? which years? maybe only 84/85-89/90?

[MadbaLL]

SakuragiGT, this is not a bad idea, what you think guys? should i? which years? maybe only 84/85-89/90?

that is possible? how come? i didn't know that...

in that case, yes... all mods from 1985 until 1989.

i'm not sure about 1990, according to pics from 1989/1990 season, jerseys and shorts were normal. but it needs double or triple checking for sure.

[skoadam]

MadbaLL, ofc its possible...but its static.

And here is my today 3h work, all rosters with this kind of little but good looking stuff. Implemented in roster and season files.












+ jim obrien black hand fix and accurate webber cfs assigned

+ tight jerseys for all 84-89 teams

Agreed, I think anything past '89 is unnecessary for tighter upper jerseys.

Wow, this is incredible!
I just registered to say thank you. So a big thank you skoadam & slimm44!

I played like five full games so far and I really enjoy the gameplay. It's smoother than 2k14 and I feel more in control, especially when dribbling, so good choice of game. Individual play styles work superbly, I can't give Ray Allen an inch of space or he's draining jumpers all over, Kobe takes midrange J's off the dribble and Nash, Finley, Harden kill me with step back threes everytime I fuck up with my perimeter defense, it's really tough to guard people who are a threat to shoot & drive, just like it should be. Maybe post players don't get quite enough touches, I haven't seen much of an inside-out game yet (and I played vs the Shaq Lakers), but that has been a problem with 2K since I can remember (started with 2K6).

I find it very hard to prevent the AI from getting up inside shots & Layups but really easy to make 'em miss those and on the oher end I similarily have lots of trouble finishing in the paint when defenders are nearby but that may just be me trying to adjust to a new game after almost 2 years of 2K14. I play with your sliders. Maybe playing most of my games with peak Garnett on the 04 Wolves had a tiny effect on making opponents miss those shots, though.

Also the accuracy of signature shots & moves is great!


If I may I have two quesions/requests.

Are you planning to do/ could you please / can you tell me how to...

1. create a roster of the best/ most exciting teams from different years? I'd like to play a season with the 07 Suns vs the 91 Bulls, 87 Lakers, 99 Spurs, 96 Magic, etc (you get the idea). As of now I know how to play with the 95 Spurs against the 95 Magic but I can't play with the 95 Spurs gainst the 96 Magic for example.

2. create a fantasy draft roster. The peak versions of all the good, very good & great players found in your various rosters assembled in one single roster. Since it'd be only for fantasy draft purposes I wouldn't care about player allocation on teams (but from what I've read, skoadam isn't one to not care about details ). I'm aware this will pose difficulty with playbooks but in 2K14 it worked decently with borad general playbooks for all teams, not that all teams have to get the same playbook, but they need a wide array of plays to accomodate every draftable player. This is basically the only game mode I played in the last year, as I enjoy coming up with new team concepts and always plaing against great & legendary opponents (I'm already annoyed at giving so many minutes to Mark Madsen and Ervin Johnson...).

I've never done any 2K editing outside of the ingame options, so Im basically a noob on that front. I'm not new to video game editing in general as I edit tactics and maintain a classic roster for a football (soccer) game from 2006, so I agree with choosing better games over newer ones.


Due to the quality you guys provided, I don't think I'll have to get another Bball game for quite a while.

Sorry for the long post, mainly wanted you to know what you do (and the quality of it!) is appreciated.

cheers.

[I_am_JD]

Sko and Slimm, again another classic from you both...kudos to your efforts. This is great stuff I just noticed though that v31 asso folder is missing the association files. Simply put the folder is empty. Just wanted to let you guys know about it. Thanks!

[skoadam]

che, We need to read about your thoughts, so dont sry for the long post. Maybe slimm can answer your gameplay question, im 2tired Thx for the kind word, i have no doubts 2k13 with this roster is for sure way better than 2k14 ( even modded rosters, sry 2k14 hard working guys ). About inside-outside, bro when inside-outside basketball works? Try to double Shaq(ORL,LAL), Olajuwon, Duncan -or any other big player with good 3pt shooters around- and you will see how deadly Anderson or Scott is. It wont work for 80's, but 1994-2015 will punish you hard when you will try to help inside the paint. Inside-Outside works when your opponent help you "a little".
About inside the paint troubles, remember inside the paint should be around 50%.

Your requests...well, cant say a word about this, just wait and see what future brings

BTW guys remember that slimm force you to finally use defensive matchups/settings. This is sim, you must choose which player you want to be neutralized.

I_am_JD, all in README file, asso files will show up together with updated draft classes, because IMO there is no sense to use sim asso files together with not updated draft classes.

[skoadam]

Ok, guys, playoff hype right?
Wake up early and implemented 2015 playoff schedule to the 2015 roster. File is named FinalURB2015PlayoffSchedule, remember it works only for quick game but it will let you easily start current playoff game. File is uploaded and ready to use.

[masconti1954]

Thanks Skoadam & Slimm for this amazing mod but it is too hard for me to play with it
Before this final release my score was about 55% losses with Cle.
Now I have played 12 games CLE vs BOS and I loss 12/12 with 15-35 points of difference
I notice a very big and unstoppable team momentum in the new gameplay (often 20/4 offence power with 4-5 timeuot). Total stats are good but I have seen too many FGA (110-125).
I tried to play 2 match with old sliders setting without success. Help me please

[skoadam]

masconti1954, 110-125 FGA? Opponents? Are you still on defense ? Man dont know what to say. Did you try to apply defensive settings? Set tight defense on star players.
You lost vs Cavs? or vs Boston?
