CelticsBird33, unfortunately most of the ideas either can't be done because the game doesn't have the feature, or can't be done currently because I haven't figured it out. I'll go one by one:
CelticsBird33 wrote:The Forum court for the Lakers.
This is a resource constraint. There are far fewer arenas than there are teams. I don't want to have two arenas for the Lakers because the courts wouldn't be much different, and I think it's better used for another team. I could replace the existing Lakers arena, but there are more Staples Center Lakers teams (3) than Forum teams (1).

Would be cool, but the game doesn't have this feature where the courts are different in different game modes.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Can we get Jack courtside at The Forum, and Spike at MSG? Patrick Ewing needs a flat top. lol
Not possible. The crowd isn't arena-specific. Their clothes are, but their body parts are not (i.e. head, arms).
CelticsBird33 wrote:One for 2.0, which I'm sure you are doing already, is adding more legends in place of the modern player slots.
I'm do what is currently possible, but to do this right we need ATTRIBDB to be editable. This is explained in the readme.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Jimmy friggin Butler needs a headband
Totally possible, but heads take a time to do well. This is on my list, but it's very far down so it probably won't happen.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Maybe adding coaches like Riley etc.
When I tried to create coach head textures, it didn't go well. I'd like to revisit this.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Can 91-93 Jordan get some Raptors and Suns Chuck get his Air Max's
Early 90's Jordan and late 90's Jordan are the same player model. He wears the Jordan 12's. Chuck wears generic shoes. If I changed the generic shoes, half the players in the game would be changed. Again, in order to do this right we need ATTRIBDB to be editable.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Adding more classic pictures for the loading screens.
More can't be added. I've replaced most of them.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Incorporate the CBS theme music from 1982-1989, and the NBA on NBC theme from 1990-2002 somehow.
Mix in (or interchangeable) Marv Albert and maybe Dick Enberg for some calls.
Have Johnny Most and Tom Heinsohn call the Celtic games. It'd be pretty dang cool to hear Johnny Most say "BOOMSHAKALAKA!!"... especially against the Pistons. lol
I don't know how to replace audio. Also, there's no team-specific announcer so that wouldn't be possible.

Eh, kinda. They replaced three in-game heads that don't match the bodies and are way too big. Not in the same ballpark of what I've done IMO
CelticsBird33 wrote:How hard can it be?!? lol
Without ATTRIBDB it absolutely sucks. Planning player and uniform swaps and replacing textures is pretty awful.
CelticsBird33 wrote:Gene Hackman, Jimmy Chickwood and a younger Dennis Hopper.
Sidney Deane and Billy Hoyle.
Fictional teams would be cool. I'm probably never gonna make time for it.

Point being, johnz1, is that we all here are very genuine when we say that your game is very much appreciated, and we don't know how yoll do it.
You are very welcome! I have massive respect for farmers and ranchers.
