all of the shoes from v1 and 2 are included here so no worries

Just as a heads up I will try to return to the 2K14 thread in some capacity.
I want to provide screen shots of 2K18 assets so you guys can convert and create for 2K14

I really want to convert over, but there's so much about 2K18 that bothers me, specifically when it come to art. The differentiation of body types and muscle tone baffles me, especially in this year of 2017. The accessories, though they look very detailed and accurate, they make the game look so ugly because they clip all over the place, which is such an eye sore with a 4K or 1080p display. Again, it's 2017 and they still have no hair physics, other than certain cut scenes with the cheerleaders (which Live has had since Live 2006). You still can't toggle headbands on/off (REALLY 2K). I've tried to get in contact with their art director Joel Friesch, but that's been unsuccessful. I actually reached out Mike Wang and said PLEASE go back to separating the 3D model head from the bodies. If I made a basketball game from scratch, I could scan at least 8 different body types, along with being able to actually toggle on/off muscle definition and have a game that looks way better than what we're seeing from them.

Don't get me wrong, NBA 2K18 looks and plays well, but from a tech standpoint, their cloth physics need major improvement, their hair tech really needs a huge overhaul (to which Live had better on a last-gen system), and their player models and accessories need to be tightened up significantly.

I'm keeping my ear to the street and trying to learn, but it seems they keep switching up the file structure/format each year. Luckily we do have a lot of very talented guys and a couple tools. I've just been waiting for that good base to work off of. Does 2K18 seem a little more user-friendly when it comes to modding compared to the previous?

It is about the same

With what Dee uploaded today, I think all that's missing is a true roster editor, unless someone made one.

I have a 20 minute video loading onto youtube right now. I got a little excited this morning messing around in 2K14.
I was glad to finally get some time with it.

I hope some you guys check it out. I will post it here once it is uploaded. I also found out that some of the cheat engine stuff I was doing in 2K19 works for 2K14. Not sure what I will be able to turn into moddable content and cheat tables but the excitement is there for now

Re: TGsoGood |Discoveries, mods and NLSC shoe vault

What did you find that works from 2k19 in 2k14 by using the cheat engine?

The Camera cheat table has been working for me... I haven't gone in depth but it has worked to quickly switch camera views while playing the game.
No need to go into the pause menu.
I'm sure that some of the cheat table menus for gameplay settings can be updated to work for 2K14 by changing a few things.

A lot of the same stuff that RED MC allows you to do can be duplicated in cheat engine. It would be easier to use RED MC, now that its free, for most things.
For things like Gameplay settings, camera views, etc you can't really use RED MC.

I haven't had much time with 2k14 or 2k19 lately but I try to stay up to date on what's possible as far as modding. When ever I get opportunities I try to test things out.

Working on a blacktop randomizer, allows you to select what court you want to play on for blacktop games. You can choose a different court each game... could lead to more

Edit:
Randomizer is the wrong word. Its more of a blacktop court selector

I would love to do add more shoes but I would need people to give me permission to rename their files and repackage them for a full release.
No promises but I have been thinking about that

After a few hours of refreshing my memory about the Shoe vault, here are some notes I took

Notes to self
style.rmce within the shoe_global.iff file after exporting using RED MC

Offset Block:10-11 (shoe Style value)
backward byte aligned

Offset Block:14-17 (shoe Name)
Backwards byte aligned.
This will call a line of text from english.iff or englishfe.iff


Offset Block:1C-1F (shoe description)
This description is a text string, visible after select view shoe

Offset Block:20-27 (shoe Brand) (Maybe only 20-23 are needed, and 24-27 is position on the brand menu ?)
Shoes will appear under a specific shoe brand menu depending on value assigned
2K Brand - D3 A1 4F 96 6C 07 00 00

Nike - 38 88 6A 06 DE 17 03 00
(zoom) - 38 88 6A 06 6C 07 00 00

So I finally hit a limit in the amount of shoes that can be added to the shoe menu. Looks like 255 shoes is all that will shoe in the in game menu. I will release something by all-star break

255 shoes? Thats way more than I have in my game, and I was using your shoe vault as far as I know. You are so talented though, thanks so much for your work.

I commented earlier on creating a blacktop court randomizer,
but instead I have opted to show you all how to choose your own blacktop court in NBA 2K14 PC using Cheat Engine

Here is my video tutorial for selecting your own Blacktop court.

If you have any questions or comments about the above video, I prefer that you ask or comment on the video itself.
That helps to keep this thread on track and I will also see a notification.

Shoe Vault details will be discussed within the next week. Check out the video and try it out.
