NBA JAM: 2020's On Fire Edition

[johnz1]

Keep up the great work, I highlight your work on my YT Channel and send people here.
They always asking me questions and I'm like Ask Johnz1 lol.

Thanks! And thanks for spreading the word!
I have to ask, where did you hear that you need an SSD in order to play on a real PS3? I've never that before. I have an original (fat) PS3 with the stock hard drive and it works fine.

Hi! Johnz1 I see that davis is missing from the dallas mavericks. Did u remove him? or do I have to unlock him?

The current DAL team was removed in v3.0 because I didn't want to include a team that didn't actually exist in real life. Davis played less than one game with them last year, and Kyrie went down after that.
They will be back in v4.0 - and with more players

Thank you for the time and dedication on this project!

Is there any ETA for v4.0 with updated rosters for this season?

Thanks

NBA JAM: 2020's On Fire Edition v4.0 has been released!

Boomshakalaka!

[kandiman]

Is it the shoes. Thank you!

Always thankful to see a new release! Is there a reason the updates use a different game ID each time instead of just updating the last install?

Yeah. There's no way to migrate the save file so that it works properly. For example, the v3.0 save knows that GSW Jimmy Butler is using player ID 12, but in v4.0 his ID was changed to 133 so that Amen Thompson can use ID 12. If v4.0 used the same PS title ID as v3.0, Butler would be on the Rockets. The same concept applies to all other kinds of IDs

yoooo did you add arena sounds? i was playing as the magic and heard their 3 pointer arena sound when i drained one

[johnz1]

Nope. No audio has been changed, and ORL still has the strange glass shattering audio nearly every time they dunk

Sorry for the likely ignorant question.. but is it possible to download this to my R36S? I assume no, but this looks too badass not to give it a shot. TIA

No, sorry. That's a 1.5GHz ARM chip. Far too weak for PS3 emulation.

Excellent mod as always. Have you thought about adding the 2026 Raptors with Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram? They're likely to both be all stars this year and are fourth in the East. Thanks for the great mods.

Hi!
One suggestion for a player could be to add Vucevic for the BULLS instead of Drummond: It makes more sense and you have a player to use for a late 10´s magic when you do 2010´s On fire edition.
Also, it seems that Dillon Brooks wants Jalen Green´s spot on the current Suns hahahaha (saying that because Jalen was clearly supposed to be the number 2, and Dillon shut all our mouths)

They will be in the next version. I added them about a month ago.

Yeah, there's no shortage of players who should be in these projects. It's just a matter of having time to create them. Vuc will probably never be created. A third option (behind DeRozan and LaVine) on a bad Bulls team will just never become a priority for me. Dillon too. I think he's definitely the #2 guy for the current Suns, but unless they make things happen in the playoffs, it's the same story for me.

You're 100% right about Drummond. He was created for DET in 2010s OFE (Griffin, Drummond, Jackson).
