I was trying to use it for NBA 2K18. I have the modded folder, and your work is always amazing I simply just don't know how to do it. I don't even know what TNT AD.psd or tnt new scoreboard 1200.psd are. I will post a screenshot.

the players only portion only shows up when committing a foul or stepping out of bounds. anyways, hopefully we can get some screenshots.

Hi,

re. team names. I am sure I have managed to display team names on the scoreboard, unfortunately have deleted all the files from pc and can not pass exact instructions. But will try to explain what to do...

TEAM NAMES on the scoreboard - INSTRUCTIONS how to
----------------------------------

ksmiz wrote:Remember I said the root scoreboard displayed team names and the new 2k18 needed the new NewScorebug.VCUIELEMENT file to work. Before this everything just said sample. Well this new one defaulted the rootsports changes and switched it back to tricodes.

So I looked into the NewScorebug.VCUIELEMENT file from 2k17 and compared with the rootsports one.

2 very specfic changes were made in the entire thing

As you have discovered offset of bytes that are responsible for displaying data for the away/home team, the only thing which is left is to enter other data that describes full team names.
Now you have to look for the ***.iff file that is responsible for the starting lineup. I do not remember it's name, probably sth like "pregame....iff" "..starting...ff", "..presentation..iff", you will find it by testing and getting errors.
So, this file should have it's own VCUIELEMENT file. Find correct 4 bytes and repeat them at the scoreboard's VCUIELEMENT file.

That's it.

P.s. I would not recommend to look for other than my offered iff file that displays full team name (arena videos screens files, etc.) - as a rule their data do not fit for newscoreboard.iff - sure I have not checked them all, so...

GOOD LUCK

I'm new to the nba 2k modding community and I was looking at past mods specifically nba 2k14 mods and I saw different watermarks like Fox, TNT, CBS and I was wondering how to do that for nba 2k18. I know we have the NBA League Pass, ESPN and couple others but I wanted the TNT watermark or ABC watermark for NBA 2K18.

GREAT! Congrats.
Same technique should be used for the FULL CITY NAME. You just have to find correct ***.iff file that displays city name. Unfortunately "starting lineup."iff shows only team name.

For city name would this work? Any idea what this file is? right before the starting lineup when the players are shooting around warming up
Image

EDIT:
The file is titlecard2

Unfortunately it does not work as I thought it would. It displays the whole thing
Image

This is a more accurate way to represent what it is pointing to
Image

However I did find that this file shows their records too as well as stadium name. Wonder if it would be possible to add records under the teams to a scoreboard
Just took a quick example from google to show what I am talking about
Image

Here's a preview of the progress with the root sports scorebug. Would like to figure out some animation stuff but it is coming along.

wow, you found that quick.
here's an album of other instances of "utah jazz" in case you have time & desire to locate them.
https://imgur.com/a/99aNB
the first picture is interesting because the utah is a slightly smaller font than the jazz, so it might be a seperate entitiy.
also, there's quite a few vcuielement files in the gooeyglobal.iff
i havent looked through any of them.

oh, adding the team record, in theory, might work. It would require adding items to the scorebug_score.scne through notepad, or through blender, and then pulling the required animation files from titlecard2.iff to the scorebug.iff anyways, that's in theory.

I'll look for the instance in the first picture but the other examples look similar so I think they'll display the full thing

yeah, the first one might be different.
also, ima dig into titlecard2 scene files. I would like to know how they get Utah on top line and Jazz on bottom line. it should be somewhere in the scene files, perhaps.
also, i dragged all the titlecard2.iff files into newscorebug.iff. haveing both NewScorebug.VCUIELEMENT and TitleCard2.VCUIELEMENT did nothing. 2k18.exe searched for newscorebug.vcuielement and loaded the scoreboard proper.

but then i deleted newscorebug.vcuielement and renamed "titlecard2.vcuielement" to "newscorebug.vcuielement"
then, the 2k18.exe read the renamed element and loaded the bottom banner during gameplay. :) :) :)
Image

it might be as simple as copying hex from titlecard2.element to newscorebug element and then dragging all the titlecard2.iff files into newscorebug.iff
or, like all hex, it might just screw it all up :) anyways, havent tested that theory
I gotta cook dinner for the kids. might get back to it later
ciao

Using ksmiz information about titlecard2.iff, by editing the newscorebug.vcuielement and also editing scorebug_opt.SCN with notepad we can have the city names in scoreboard.

example of edited scorebug_opt.SCN

ingame screenshot:

NewScorebug Element for City Names attached to this post. *attached file is for 2k18. not sure if it work for 2k17, possibly need to replace 2k17 element hex.

many thanks to ksmiz and exrxixxx :)
