The titlecard2 file doesn't make use of the full team name anymore so I will have to find some file that uses the whole team name or a file that uses city names then will be able to swap out 4 bytes needed to change that.
About this point, i've found that you can change tricode in cheat engine to mostly everything you want (town, team name or anything else).
It's easy but laborious and should be done on every roster.
naw man don't do it like that haha that is too much work and you don't need to do that
you just need to swap out the 2 spots of 4 bytes each that are in that spot where tricode would normally be in the NewScorebug.VCUIELEMENT file within the newscorebug.iff file
I haven't done any modding or even really played this game much in about a month
I don't know if the 4 bytes are a CRC32 like everything else or if they are an offset but whatever they are to begin with represent tricode_home_txt and tricode_away_txt
If you or I find a file to pull apart that will show the city name then just need to use the same bytes that are used in that iff file's .VCUIELEMENT file
In 2K18 the titlecard2.iff had like the full team name like Cleveland Cavaliers so I could take the same bytes from the TitleCard2.VCUIELEMENT and swap them into the NewScorebug.VCUIELEMENT
then you could clip off the box so that only Cleveland showed
or could clip off the city but using 2K19's bytes for titlecard already accomplishes this and looyh has already done this for example in the fox scoreboard
