96-97 Season Mod Release

Postby Paxson-for-3 on Tue Mar 18, 2025 5:48 am

Hello,

Here is my new update for the 1996-97 season.
It includes the Roosters' standings as of November 1, 1996 (first matchday).
Each team has the exact original rooster.
In addition, each player has the original 1996/97 kit.

Here are a few screenshots:

Info:
I used this mod as a template and improved it a lot.

Paxson-for-3, Great work here man ;)

However, I have a few suggestions:

1. Could you also include end of season rosters/playoff rosters?
2. Could you include courts with NBA 50th anniversary ribbon like they were in 96/97?
3. Charlotte Hornets uniforms on the screenshot are from season 97/98 not from 96/97;
4. New York Knicks uniforms should have round type collar.

Hi,

Thanks
I'm still getting into NBA2K. Many years ago, I was more of an expert on NBA live games ;)

I'm working on the Rooster for the 1997-98 season soon, which would be identical to the Rooster from the end of the 1996-97 season.

Unfortunately, I can't integrate any more logos or jerseys yet; I still have to read up on them.

It would be great if someone knows about this and could help me.

I'm primarily someone who looks at the Roosters and the players' equipment.

I'm having lot of fun with your mods, retro seasons in 2k11 are amazing. This game is the best looking game on this generation. I hope other missing seasons will be covered too (92/93, 93/94, 95/96, 98/99, 2000/2001, 2001/2002, 2002/2003, 2003/2004 and 2004/2005).

I also asked one of the best editors here on NLSC how to have all your season mods into one mod. In the meantime, I have few suggestions:

- Could you remove unneeded teams from all your season rosters, meaning Bobcats and 2k retro teams?
- Could you polish some primacy settings? For example, I was playing against Lakers, and most of the shots and actions by the CPU were for Van Excel and Jones, instead of Shaq.

Hey,

I'm glad you like it :)

I'm currently working on a kind of reboot.

My base was always this one: 1997 Mod for NBA 2K11 PART 1/7

but it had a lot of bugs. Now I have enough knowledge to do and create everything myself. I'm starting with the original 2010-11 season and then gradually working my way back. I'm currently working on 2004-05. The old seasons are being completely reworked. Bugs are being fixed, and logos and jerseys are being improved. But of course, all of this takes time. I'm currently working on the foundation for 2004-05, but it's looking pretty good so far.

Just take your time, I'm more than grateful for the opportunity to play retro seasons in 2k11.

On a side note, since you are addressing bugs:

- Charles Barkley wore #32 in 91/92 season (to honor Magic Johnson)
- Mike Fratello (head coach) has issue with black hands
- GSW 97/98 and 99/00 home jersey numbers should be dark navy color with golden outline (now they are blue)
