MARCH MADNESS 2K14 v9 (Update 4.2.14)

[agolden]

Is there a way for my default roster to be this?

You would have to rename the March Madness roster to Roster1.ros. Then you'd have to turn off NBA2K Share, by following a tutorial by JaoSming: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOy6rikv4r0">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOy6rikv4r0</a><!-- m -->


I haven't done this myself, but I imagine this is what you would have to do.

unforuntely the video is not big enough to see what he's doing in terms what the textof the file name is to know what to do. is there a written version of this around.

Actually, just rename your roster from the March Madness roster to Roster1.ros. Ignore the video for now, just doing this will probably work.

does that go into he main or saves folder

The saves folder.

I made a quick little video tutorial for anyone who would like to have a separate installation ready for March Madness 2K14.

If you decide to use the Windows Installer when you download March Madness, you can ignore making a shortcut, as instructed at the end of the video. The installer will do that for you, with the March Madness icon, and all.

Welcome to March Madness 2K14! What started as a simple 5-team Demo has evolved into the most in-depth, accurate College Basketball project the NLSC has ever seen! Accurate looks, ratings, styles of play, presentation, overlays; you name it!! We have two versions of the Mod available: A Lite Version, which will not overwrite a single one of your default NBA files! Also, for users who desire, in addition to the Lite Version, we have a Full Version, which will fully immerse you into the NCAA Basketball world, but will overwrite your default NBA files (recommended to be used along with the JSGME Generic Mod Enabler)! There's a list below of everybody who assisted in any way in getting this mod released, whether it was making files, converting files, assisting me in learning with the roster; anything. This is a community project, don't forget that! This doesn't get done without the help of the entire NLSC! Thank you guys so much for your overwhelming support and help and positivity since the very first Demo release! You guys are awesome!! So, without further adieu...

[skeletor1024]

Amazing work everybody! Thank you bigh0rt... Prolly gonna pull an all nighter if Joe answers the damn phone... UK season is gonna be crazy!! Best college basketball game I've EVER played. And it's a mod

[bigh0rt]

JaoSming pointed out that there is 1 overwrite file that snuck into the Lite Version of the game. It is the watermark, I believe. gooeyoverlaysstatic.iff is the file. I'm not re-zipping and re-uploading tonight; that's for sure. Maybe tomorrow if I have time before the Super Bowl. If you want just the Lite Version, just don't put that file in your Main Directory...

[bbgeek]

If I copy and paste my entire NBA 2K14 folder will it act as a separate game?

Yes. It works with both the Steam and DVD version. Just follow my video tutorial

Actually not with the STeam version and I can't test the DVD version. I'm raging right now...

I'll try and see if I can fix it tomorrow.

[exrxixxx]

Thanks for the mod.
Just installed, did not run yet, but in FULL pack we have minor issues imo:

dorna564.cdf.temp
and
dornaxxx.iff.back a lot of files which just occupies free space

[BaldyGotGame10]

Duke @ Syracuse...felt like the real game all over again. But I was able to take the Blue Devils to that W! Plus I didn't like Albany's jersey so I used the one form the 2k13 mod. Taking them to the NCAA Championship!

[Phreezy P]

Nice! I'll release my court updates as I get more time, I got murdered by a basketball tournament and had no time for modding.

[exrxixxx]

Nice to know that if you play Featured Game (today it is Memphis vs Duke), then both teams will show up with Rockets and 76ers logos.

You have to choose both teams from normal menu, not from Featured Title page.

This is not a problem, just noticed it happens (at least for me)
