Crowd Big Heads

[maolano]

Has anyone been able to create crowd big heads for any player? I've downloaded and currently use answer996's LeBron James' and Ben Simmons' crowd big heads, however I wanted one for several players, such as Jayson Tatum. I started to make transparent images of players' heads, in case I ever figure out how to make it myself, however that is highly unlikely... lol. Please let me know if you have made them, and/or would like to share your knowledge of making them. Thanks!

I second this. Everytime I try to change the texture of the bighead it's just completely black for me in Photoshop.

You mean you cant load the texture even mahmood ? I had no issues but i think you need the intel texture works plugin for dds files !

[martoluthor]

its not that hard, you have to make an alpha channel!

Do I have to go through the steps of using Autodesk 3ds Max? Or do I just save it as a dds instead of a Targa

Alright, so I saved it as a dds, then made sure the TXTR file correctly corresponds with the dds file, and renamed the .iff to the correct player's id (i'm using Jayson Tatum, and id is 7504). However, when I tried to load in game to check if all is good, my game crashes around the 50% loading mark. I just used copies of existing crowd big heads files instead of generating entire new .dds, .TXTR, .iff files. Is there something I may be missing, or not doing right?

[MrVinceCarter15]

martoluthor , Do you know the file name of My career headshot ?

[martoluthor]

Make sure that the file is
crowd_big_head_7504.iff
And that you saved the dds file with it original name and as a dxt1 argb 4bp 1 bit alpha

[martoluthor]

Make sure that the file is
crowd_big_head_7504.iff
And that you saved the dds file with it original name and as a dxt1 argb 4bp 1 bit alpha

[maolano]

Make sure that the file is
crowd_big_head_7504.iff
And that you saved the dds file with it original name and as a dxt1 argb 4bp 1 bit alpha

Alright so I made sure the iff file is named correctly as crowd_big_head_7504.iff, and the dds file was saved as a dxt1 argb 4bp 1 bit alpha. It now loads fully into the game, however the asset is shown as some distorted image, instead of JT's face... This is so much better and I'm getting closer, just not there yet lol. Can you show me an example of how the dds file is supposed to look and done in Photoshop? Thanks a lot for the help btw!

As you can see the alpha layer is not marked

Alright, so I just had to merge the layers, got it. Do you save the DDS using NVIDIA texture tools exporter, or Intel Texture Works? Also, is it ok if you show me your exact save settings? Thanks!

Ok, so I copied what you did on Photoshop and saved exactly as follows. However it sill shows as a distorted image in game. I'm thinking it is the file name that I am using. Here is an image of how I'm saving it:

Also here is how my TXTR file looks:

Finally, I got it to work! Thanks a lot for the help dude! Now I'll be able to make crowd big heads for players that deserve one haha

how can i find my career players headshot ?

how can i find my career players headshot ?

MyCareer player's don't have a CFID, they probably have some kind of detection method for your facescan. It'd be revolutionary if we could somehow export the Facescan, but the CFID is just shown as 0001 in Limnono whenever you try to see it. Not sure how you'd find it.

ohh, because for example in crowd i can see crowd_head with my cyberface, so i wanted to switch with real players face just by renaming the id , but seems not possible I remember back in earlier versions i was able to find myplayers portrait and i changed with other players real face, so i thought it would be also possible this year
