NCAA March Madness 2015-16 V2.5 MINOR UPDATE (1.10.16)

that what i need to know the tab, ty, but ot what number. i realize more stuff will be needed, some i've done for myself, and some i proably will do.

First off, fantastic work by everyone on this. Truly appreciated.

I wonder if anyone has experienced a catastrophic crash after rebooting their pc once these mods have been applied. I used the 2k14 v9 version for 2013-14 season and that worked fine. I downloaded these the other day and they work until i reboot and then it crashes my pc and I have to completely refresh it (losing all applications/software etc.).

Any ideas on this would be appreciated.

It's in the Teams Tab, under TType. Change them to, I believe 1, to 'unlock' them. They should be 27 or 17 or something like that, while 'locked'.

I have not heard any reports similar to this one, especially if last year's mod worked for you. Is it crashing every time, or was it a one time, isolated incicent? Either way, I'm sorry that happened to you. I may try a fresh install of 2K14, and then re-installing this mod from scratch, to see if that helps at all.

I refreshed my pc and started from scratch again and it happened again so I don't know quite what's happening. I copied over last years mod information, I don't know if that would make a difference? Either way, I appreciate you responding and if you don't get to reinstall don't worry about it, still appreciate the work you guys have done. I'll keep looking around for the offending file! (It may not be anything to do with this).

Pepis21 has sent me the Made in March uniforms for Louisville and Wisconsin, and is completing the Kansas and Indiana. I will be using that template to complete UCLA, NC State, and Michigan, and then sorting out all those teams' proper Team Colors, shoes, etc.The ones he sent already came out great, so I'm pumped to soon have all of the released tournament uniforms included!

i hate to ask, because i've enjoyed using vald editors over the years, but it seems that editor no longer work right, and contact doesn't seem possible, does anyone know if any else might working an editor that work on these files. just looking for away to work with these files.

To my knowledge, your options are only RED MC, or maybe the Alec Zou Trainer at the top of this forum, but I'm unsure of its stability and usability.

i found it as you said, but it appears be in chinsee,, but not seeing english verion. is there one?

I use Alec Zou's trainer. You will not be able to unlock teams with it. It is great for editing rosters and using as an in game trainer. There is a full thread on it in the 2k14 releases and previews section if you need to know how to use it.

Some more gameplay

Love it Manni! I'm wondering, though, why you don't have the background colors on the logos in the scoreboard?? I think I remember some resolution/aspect issues from last year, but I'm not sure.

I have to rep my Philly dudes. The line art on the sides needs to be a lot thinner, but I'd say pretty good for just throwing something together. It's not perfect by any means but is a work in progress.

Question: Have you guys done anything creative with the schedules similar to UBR?

Question: Have you guys done anything creative with the schedules similar to UBR?

We haven't. I don't know how it would work with all the subbing teams in and out for custom Associations, etc.

Okay, so I have a TON of new stuff to release, as well as a ton of stuff still working on, I'm just not sure WHEN to re-bundle and re-upload it all. We've got every single 2015 adidas Made in March uniform (thanks to Pepis21), every single 2015 Nike Hyper Elite White uniform, completely re-done uniforms, throwbacks, new Nike warm-ups (thanks to Tha King's template), adidas Team Tranxion socks (I need help from someone who can edit 3D files in the Global to finish this, but the graphic files are there), Nike Hyper Elite socks (should I make the Hyper Elite Chase socks instead? Weigh in if you care one way or another...) in an updated Global, updated Team Gear and Team Colors and Shoes for about a dozen teams.

Again, there's so much I still want to do, but I also want to give everyone all the updates we've already done. Thoughts?

Holy cow as the late great Harry Caray would say! Amazing work fellas can't wait to see all the new stuff

Alright, uploading a new Uniforms file, new Menus & Misc file, and new Roster file. You'll need to download all 3 of them to have a partial update. Eventually I will have all the big files re-bundled and you'll need to do one big download again, and then I'll just start making a smaller Update file going forward. There was just too many changes for it right now, and again when I finish making all the updates. You've got in the neighborhood of 50 New and/or Updates uniforms, new gear, 3 shoes by Robsky, new team gear and team colors, custom nike and adidas socks, small menu updates, added and fixed throwbacks, every single Nike Hyper Elite and adidas Made in March uniform, and I'm sure there's a boatload I'm forgetting as well. Hoping to have everything fully uploaded within the next 30 - 45 minutes (just waiting on Uniform file...), God willing. There's still so many uniforms I want to tweak and fix, as I've experimented and learned new techniques for making numbers look realistic, and other aspects of uniforms be more true to life. Check out the Michigan State White and Gold throwback uniforms, which I completely re-did from scratch, and added Tha King's new warm-ups to, to get an idea of how the improved uniforms look. As I said there's approximately 50 between the added and updated, and plenty more to come.

Enjoy, guys. Feedback, as always, is appreciated and encouraged.

Nice work Big! I'll check all these out in the morning.

Love it Manni! I'm wondering, though, why you don't have the background colors on the logos in the scoreboard?? I think I remember some resolution/aspect issues from last year, but I'm not sure.

I've been wondering why thats so myself,i think i seen someone upload the colors for it in pg5 but it still dosent show up

Whatever resolution of the scoreboard you're using, try the other one. That could be it.

I was wondering how hard it is to update a team and roster in the mod? I'm not sure how many teams you can add in total to the roster but I was just thinking of creating the teams that are definitely going to be there in March that aren't in the current update - and if it was possible to override the historical teams in this update?

Thinking of adding teams like:

Northern Iowa
Murray State
Xavier
Dayton
Davidson

I'd be happy to help with uniforms, rosters etc.. (I guess courts wouldn't really be needed, although would be nice).

Cheers

From an earlier post of mine:

It's easy enough if you just want to slap something together. That was what was done in past years, when something was even released at all, or released in July for a college basketball season that had ended three months prior, and was just CAP faces, slapped together ratings, and no effort put into team or player tendencies, etc. For the past two years, though, we've prided ourselves on doing it right, being thorough, accurate, and immersive. Players look like themselves (as best as we can make them), play like themselves, teams look and play like themselves. Those who don't understand, and it's very few people, to everyone's credit, think it's just a matter of getting a court and uniforms and slapping them together. We have custom arenas, custom dornas, custom player and team gear down to colored socks and working on accurate shoes even, proper gear colors, custom crowds and surrounding arena staff, custom logos to fit the CBS broadcast, in addition to the most important and tedious part; the roster. I know you get it, and I do hope that we're able to add teams down the road. Thanks.

I have no plans of adding teams at this point, because of the work entailed in the roster in getting more than just husks who wear the right uniforms.

Hey Big, I noticed you updated the team and shoe colors for Arkansas so I updated all the Arkansas files to help match everything a little better. My jersey update, from before, was a little to dark as was everything else Arkansas. This updates the colors to better match your updated team and shoe colors. I updated the stadium, floor, team, and jerseys files with these colors.

Perfect, thanks. I'll add them to the next update. What color socks and shoes should they wear with each uniform? I'll do my best to make it happen, while also having them wear correct colored bands and t-shirts.

EDIT: And what color maroon would you like me to use?
