Well just like you said. Deleted the sync.bin, downloaded it again and just downloaded the 1993 roster and with no problem got the roster. One thing though. How can i download the roster to have it offline so when the time comes that 2k disconnects the servers i can still have this roster? Thanks for everything
As long as you keep the roster downloaded you should be fine, but we will eventually upload and offline version when the servers shut down

I downloaded this last weekend and it's been a real joy -- playing an alternate version of 1993 in MyLeague, where Jordan didn't retire (he lost to the upstart Nets and Petrovic in the ECF in 7) and the league saw a new champion (Utah, of all teams!) win the Finals.
A question for the creators: is it possible to unlock the non home/away uniforms for the teams in the mod? I'm rolling with the Magic for now and would like to roll out an alternate or two every now and then. I was wondering if using a different manifest file and exe other than 1.06 would do it, but I was afraid I'd mess up the other changes in the mod. I figured it'd be better to ask before I wreck anything.
Thank you for the answers in advance
Thanks and we love this era too. As for the jerseys, it is possible to enable the jerseys but we decided to remove them as they're not very accurate and weren't available at that time (the blue alternates didn't come until the 1994-95 season). The process of re enabling them can be difficult as you would have to dabble in cheat engine roster editing, which isn't ideal if you don't have any experience.
I would say your best bet is to find the blue alternate files using the 2K17 explorer and rename them so that they replace the jersey files used by our roster.
This is the 2K17 explorer in case you don't have it:
NBA 2K17 Explorer
Keep in mind to properly load archives you will need to have v1.08+ exe and manifest files in your directory. I'm not sure which archive the Orlando Magic files are stored in but if you load up all of them you will eventually find it. Once you find the blue alternate files, you will need to export them and rename to the names of the files being used in the game.
As of right now the 1992 and 1993 seasons use the jerseys files named:
Home:
u016orl_1990_home.iff (stored in Modded)
clothing_resource_016_orl_1990_home_font.iff (stored in Modded/clothing)
clothing_resource_016_orl_1990_home_tweak.iff (stored in Modded/clothing)
u016orl_1990_home.iff (stored in Modded/frontend_uniforms) (not necessary)
Away:
u016orl_1990_away.iff
clothing_resource_016_orl_1990_away_font.iff
clothing_resource_016_orl_1990_away_tweak.iff
u016orl_1990_away.iff
Personally I would replace the away jersey files but its up to you. If you have any questions be sure to ask and hopefully we'll be able to help out.

I threw rookie Kobe on the select team with a few others. It's impossible to defeat the dream team with only eight guys.
If you can find out the names of jersey files being used by the USA/World teams, then you can make a copy of the dream/select team's files to rename and use for USA/World. As of right now this is the name of the files that are the Dream/Select teams use:
Home:
u870ch1_current_home.iff (stored in Modded)
clothing_resource_u870ch1_current_home_font.iff (stored in Modded/clothing)
clothing_resource_u870ch1_current_home_tweak.iff (stored in Modded/clothing)
u870ch1_current_home.iff (stored in Modded/frontend_uniforms) (not necessary)
Away:
u871ch2_current_away.iff
clothing_resource_u871ch2_current_away_font.iff
clothing_resource_u871ch2_current_away_tweak.iff
u871ch2_current_away.iff
Home Practice:
u872ch3_current_away.iff
clothing_resource_u872ch3_current_away_font.iff
clothing_resource_u872ch3_current_away_tweak.iff
u872ch3_current_away.iff

u873ch4_current_away.iff
clothing_resource_u873ch4_current_away_font.iff
clothing_resource_u873ch4_current_away_tweak.iff

Good luck and also thanks for the screenshots

Deleted the sync.bin and went through those steps and everything works great. This mod is awesome! Thanks trekfan for your help, and thanks to the creators of this mod. Beautifully done.
I'm glad you guys were able to figure it out on your own. We hope you enjoy it!
