HardcoreLegend Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 So, is it official? Was it The Big O who had the first demonstrable "mod" for 2K9? Spungo made Royals uniforms yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Pirate, I know you mentioned you would not get involved with the game after all the bashing from last week, but this game is decent. You should give it a shot. Your mod work is outstanding and would love to see you get your hands on these files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't play it since I have the show and the game tends to shudder on my comp, but we'll see. Thanks for your compliments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Yeah, The Show is awesome this year. This game cant compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big O Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 Yeah, The Show is awesome this year. This game cant compare. For $20 vs. $460, I'll gladly go with MLB2K9. If 3DM and Showfom can come up with a way to crack the other files, we'll make this game look pretty good. The stadium models are so much better than the ones in MVP. It will be up to VC to give us patches like EA did to take care of the rest and I'm sure they will in time. I doubt they'd try to expand into a new market with a broken game...

HardcoreLegend Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 The only thing I'm concerned about is a lack of 'options'. I'm worried that VC limited the number of bats, gloves and shoes for no other reason than being lazy. Doing that reduces our ability to mod them to photo realistic and accurate.

Patrick1609 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 What the hell!! The game is in stores for about 42 hours and 46 mins and it's already modded! That's a heck of job!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big O Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 What the hell!! The game is in stores for about 42 hours and 46 mins and it's already modded! That's a heck of job!! The graphics can be modded, but we can't edit (yet) to the extent that we could in MVP, so we are pretty much in "MVP 2004" mode right now with repeating ads. Still a lot can be done to edit the graphics, and I'm going to try to do all that I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Rumor has it that the EBO editor works for the wire frams and textures. Or is that a dirty untrue rumor. What we need is for Rolie to figure out how to get teh stadiums in Zmod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetsReyes777 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 AAAAMEN! Got my copy yesterday, but I've been playing the 360 version. I'll be installing the PC version later today. It's unfortunate that there is no online play. Hopefully it will eventually be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we need is for Rolie to figure out how to get teh stadiums in Zmod. kinda true you guys should look at this for nba 2k9 headshape editing http://nbavg.org/dubsmods/2009/02/16/nba-2...dshape-editing/ for stadiums, it is pretty much the same thing for nba 2k9. block1 or block0 dat files seem to hold the vertex data for them and the only way to get at those files is with iffset (only works with XP) http://forums.nba-live.com/viewtopic.php?f=94&t=62380 we made a few attempts at getting zmod people's attention to no avail. if you guys make any progress, let us know, it looks like these two games and their communities can benefit from each other even more than the MVP, NBA Live and NHL games.

I used iffset at first to unpack the .iff and I did see those dat files but had no idea what to do with them. There was a bunch of other files as well that didn't have extensions and just alphanumeric characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigPaPa Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Texturing in this game is a different animal. Now texture maps and lighting are used to create life like effects on them id imagine it will take some time to relearn texturing for this style of modeling.

Now texture maps and lighting are used to create life like effects on them id imagine it will take some time to relearn texturing for this style of modeling. For stadium images, lighting is achieved using RGB. Green is one color, Red is another and Blue is another. In addition to editing the ads, there's another image file that has the lit up ads that is colored red. And there is a image file for each building at night for the window lights that can be edited to take away that unnatural lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Hey, does someone think they could get me the Citizens Bank Park ads? Mainly the wall ads, the ashburn alley store fronts, and the ads on the seats in right field. I have all the accurate ad textures on my computer and I would like to update them for MLB 2k9. However, the iff program doesn't work for me since I have Vista 64 bit. If anyone could send these images my way, I would greatly appreciate it.

The Big O Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 One more thing I should add as the built-in lighting effects pretty much determine the image coloring and shading, that we will only have to edit one .iff unlike MVP which had a day and night version of each stadium. And I would assume that the wireframe is also the same way if we can ever get to it to mod it. It's nice not to have to create two graphics files for every texture you want to replace. Hopefully this will make modding this game that much less time consuming. And as rolie pointed out, there are only a few stadiums that need massive overhauls like Fenway.
