Help with modding "The W" created players (new to PC modding)

[callhimsmoke]

Hey everyone,

I’ve always played 2K on console, but I recently started doing content creation and decided to get 2K25 on PC so I could go crazy with mods. From what I’ve gathered, the main modding tool just became unusable a day or two ago with the start of Season 8.

All I really want to do right now is edit my created players in The W (the WNBA MyCareer mode). My goal is to use existing player CFs, change hair and other details, basically create female versions of NBA players, and then max out that player (not beyond normal ratings, just get them to 99 in their playstyle).

I have a bit of experience modding in general, and I was planning to use Cheat Engine, but I found out the new anti-cheat blocks it completely. I remember save file editing was possible back in the day, but I have no idea how to jump into that now.

Could anyone point me in the right direction for what tools or methods I can use to accomplish this on PC with the current game setup? Any help or links to guides would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
