TGsoGood |2K14 Mods & Discoveries - Shoe vault 4/ WNBA/ Outdoor Courts Released

[TGsoGood]

I will upload the melo cf's. I thought I did already. WNBA was too big of a project especially since most of my time went towards the highschool mod. WNBA needed to much artwork and team updates. Way too much research was needed also. Plus I was hoping to bring wnba to 2k15 or 16 but full modding still hasn't taken off for newer 2Ks. 2K14 was the goat for PC. Modding + gameplay+ easily share files offline

I agree!! Definitely the goat for basketball games. You know it's never too late, WNBA season is about to start .

I thought about it, just too much work.

Hey man, may I ask your permission to include your Thon Maker CF in my draft class. I'm almost done updating 'til the 30th draftee on the mock draft board and I'll probably release later today or early tomorrow. Thanks man

Feel free to use anything I have ever released. I'm an open source guy, The community needs some people that always willing to share

[TGsoGood]

Here are some reference photos for anyone who would like to give a shot to creating some CFs. Also, these can be used to create player portraits.
Use any of the CFs that I have ever created as a base if you'd like.

Hopefully this will push the community forward after recent weeks of "non-releases" and previews.
Any way see below



















I'm sure I could get more at if I need it, or if anyone ever makes use of these

[TGsoGood]

Brandon Ingram v2 coming soon. Also working on something we have never had in a 2k game. Nothing too crazy.

I will get some previews up over the next day or two.

[agame2323]

Is this compatible with 2k13?

Cfs for 2K14 do work in 2K13.

Female Body previews & thoughts

Here are previews of Female body/ jersey type I have worked on this past week.


In this photo above, I have made modifications to the classic_v.iff and the cloth_shorts.iff files.
Take notice of the shape. The body is curvy and waist is thinner than hips.



You can tell the jersey is not just hanging from the body like the default men's jerseys.
You may also notice that these are the shorts that do not have the jersey physics.
I felt these were better to use for differentiating from the default/ modern baggy shorts worn by the NBA players.



Pay attention to the character on the right. You will notice that I edited the pelvic area to resemble the female anatomy more.
Also the character on the right you can see that the rear end is not the same as the default male models in this game.
The small shorts in my opinion help to give the impression of a more feminine figure although some WNBA players do were baggy
shorts also.



Lastly, this image clearly shows the side profile. You can clearly see there are breast. Most professional female athletes have very athletic
and toned bodies, so I wanted show curves while keeping a toned look.

A few things to consider:
Using a female body/ female jersey mod would mean that a global for this specific mod would need to be created.
The male "buff" texture still looks too muscular for women during some parts of the game like when the muscles flex during animations.
I am not sure if I will release this mod at this time. I would really like to get a new WNBA mod created before releasing but that is a
massive challenge for me in terms of time. We will see where this goes.

Having created this I now can see that it would be far easier for 2K to include one female body type in future games, at the very least for Park mode and Pro AM.

Notes:
CF included in the 2k13 WNBA mod
Dallas Wings jersey was created for this preview has not yet been released.

Amazing TGsogood!! I hope this means you're going to do a WNBA mod for 2k14 . Hopefully you get some assistance with it as well. With your new female body figures, that mod would be monumental!!! Absolutely amazing man.

[ONYX]

I might actually be interested in making female cyberfaces haha

Wow!!

Just wanted to put this thread back at the top of the list so it's not forgotten about . I believe this could turn into an epic WNBA mod if TG gets some cyberface and jersey assistance. It would be right in time for the WNBA season!

[TGsoGood]

I don't need any jerseys. Cyberfaces of non star players. I really need to develope a ratings formula.

[TGsoGood]

Updates 6/3/2016:

Trying a new technique for textures. Brandon Ingram update is postponed at least until I figure out how to approach the new texture technique.
Skylar Diggins CF is a work in progress.

Still hoping this mod comes to fruition. I think it would be fitting since it's the WNBA's 20th anniversary! I'm surprised not to see more activity in this thread. I hope it generates enough interest for you to feel it's worth creating. I personally think it will be revolutionary, with what you have done with the female body tweaks. I'd love to see more screenshots to see how you've feminized the faces. Also, was wondering if Slimm agreed to assist you with the ratings formula he uses? I know that was one of your bigger hang ups, finding an accurate way to rate the players.

Ballaboi, I know you are hopeful for a full WNBA mod. I have been paying attention to WNBA a lot this season, doing more historical research and checking out their advanced stats.
I already feel that this mod is worth creating, but I don't think it will create much of a buzz for two reasons.
First reason is this is 2k14. If this was being created for 2k16 or 2k17 in a few months then this would generate a great amount of buzz, especially with real CFs,team art, and female body types.
Second reason is Women's professional basketball is far less popular that Men's basketball.

I don't plan on any screenshots, I stopped working on art to try and create a roster. Slimm was able to give me some assistance. It turns out that Slimm is even busier than me, I'm amazed that he able to rate all the player in the URB mod. I don't know if I will be able to finish all 12 teams plus legends but I'm still trying. I will release whatever I finish even if it is incomplete. So far I have finished the ratings for Minnesota Lynx, The first 3 starters for the Atlanta Dream, and a few others like rookie Maya Moore, MVP Maya Moore, DPOY Silvia Fowles etc.

Updates and thoughts/ notes:

Although WNBA teams can only have 12 active players on the roster, I finished the ratings for all 14 players on the Atlanta Dream.
Two players are currently away from WNBA. Sancho Lyttle for FIBA play and Damiris Dantas has been suspended for the season. Damiris is currently training with the Brazilian national team and expected back in Atlanta next year.

I noticed that players some times elect to miss a season due to international play or even just to rest due to playing overseas in the off season. This would never happen in the NBA and there is no way to represent that in this game. Just one of the many differences that this league has in comparison to NBA.
If you guys find that interesting, you should check out the Playoff format for the WNBA which was updated this year. Playoff format in gauntlet styled .

Also I am noticing different trends.
Alot of Fowards/ 2 guards have more assists than point guards.
I already knew about the 6'3 centers
changing positions after coming from college is very common. Some go from PF in college to a guard in WNBA (that has to be tough transition)
Some PFs and C's never take any 3's
