  1. Vlad, the reason your not seeing any total conversion mods and such is frankly because no one is using your editor. A lot of people are turned off by the licensing of your program and how it only lasts a year, also it's expensive. The community is too small to really invest in your program. It's not like NBA where your editor is the only one available, not to mention the enormous modding community there.

    I know you want to get paid, but I might suggest releasing your program as freeware or with a free 1 year license and it may attract a following. With your "demo" versions and such you can't really do anything or experiment with your program since one demo doesn't allow saves and the other is extremely limited in it's functionality.

    I know if you were to offer it to the MLB community free of charge a LOT of people would jump on it (since most still don't have ty's editor) and want to start playing around with all the features you put in it. That might lead to more people purchasing it next year or even just donate some money for your program.

    Just a suggestion bro.

  2. Large logo is used when the game first starts I believe. If you change one logo your best bet is to change it for all of them, small, medium, and large. It's the same number, so if you change #94 in large logo, change #94 in small and medium. If your logo doesn't show you it's because you modified the "hidden" slot. There's primary and alternate logos, but rarely do I see the hidden alternates in game. No idea why they're there. I listed two slots for each team. So if you edit one slot and don't see it, then just edit the other slot.

    I don't know what the .CDF does but it's needed to modify it's corresponding .iff file. The .iff pulls information from it, so you won't be able to mod one without the other.

  3. Thanks so much for this DS. I worked on an alex white today and thanks to this tutorial I only have a couple minor fixes to make to it. And I'm assuming if the player you are making a cyberface for doesn't have any facial hair you don't need to edit the green texture and the alpha layers right?

    If the original cyberface has facial hair, such as the russell martin I did awhile ago, then yes after your get rid of it on the cyberface texture you need to remove the area from the green texture. Otherwise the plain face will look bumpy.

  4. What you'll need first:

    1) NBA2Kxx mod tool. Information can be found here http://forums.nba-li...p?f=138&t=80851 and here http://forums.nba-li...p?f=138&t=77105

    2) Advanced photo editing program such as Photoshop, gimp, or pain.net. You'll need a .DDS plugin. Use google to find one. Here's the one for photoshop: http://developer.nvi...adobe-photoshop

    3) Ty's editor or REDitor to find cyberface ID #'s

    What this tutorial is not:

    A guide on how to use photoshop or photo editing. I'll show you basic steps that I use that work for me. Your job is to play around with it until you get comfortable. There's MANY tutorials out there. If you have photoshop questions use google.

    Let us begin!

    **

    Today we'll be modding Jose Bautista, since he was one of my favorites to do. First step is to make a new folder, we'll call it "Bautista_J". Using Ty's editor we found that Bautista's cyberface ID is #3229. COPY over that cyberface (player_head_3229) to your Bautista folder.

    Now open up the cyberface with the mod tool and extract textures "0" and "3" using "ExportRes" to your Bautista folder. Now that they have been extracted as a .DDS open both files in Photoshop (this is what I use and will be referring to it throughout the tutorial). The result should be this:

    http://img822.images...52/unled2kk.jpg

    I have them opened in the same window (tabbed) but I took a screenshot of both side by side to show you.

    Now we need to find a good picture of Bautista to serve as or guide to change this bland cyberface. I found this one: http://megasportsnew...essbox.com_.jpg

    The higher the resolution the photo, the better and easier it will be to edit it. I suggest going to google, searching the player, select images, and in the left pane select "large" so only large images are shown.

    Now we have the three components to make a cyberface so on to the meaty part of the tutorial!

    Step 1:

    Using a selection tool, copy the real face and superimpose it onto the cyberface. Make sure the "Feather" is set to 3 px (top toolbar) BEFORE you hit CTR-C to copy the selection. Once pasted onto the cyber face use CTR-T to transform the image so it lines up appropriately. Use the "layers" tab in the bottom right to change the opacity so you can line up the face. This should be your end result:

    With 100% opacity:

    http://img148.images...34/unled2ry.jpg

    With 50% opacity:

    http://img189.images...85/unled2ep.jpg

    Circled in red are the layers tab to help you with the picture. Always edit as a new layer and never directly edit the cyberface. As you can see I have two layers. One with the original face and another with the photo face. If you need help lining up the photo with the cyberface try using the "eye" icon on the left side of each layer. This will make it visible or invisible.

    Step 2:

    Let's start copying over items from the photo to the cyberface. Let's work the beard first. With 100% opacity on "Layer 1" make a selection around the beard using the polygonal lasso tool. Remember to set Feather at 3 px. Make a selection all the way around the beard. To eliminate the mouth from the selection hold down ALT while selecting around the mouth to remove it from the selection. Your result should be this:

    http://img717.images...68/unled2cp.jpg

    Now, once you've made the selection hit CTR-C followed by CTR-V to paste the selection into a new layer. Click and hold Layer 2 and drag it so it is before Layer 1. Hit the "eye" on Layer 1 to make it invisible and look at what you have, the face is already looking a little better:

    http://img233.images...49/unled2gl.jpg

    Now, let's use the same technique copying over the mouth, eyebrows, and nose. Creating new layers for each new item. That way we can always edit them seperately. Make sure they come before Layer 1! Also, be sure to make Layer 1 visible again. WARNING: If you a get a "layer empty cannot copy" message it's because either a) Layer 1 is still invisible or B) because it's not selected or highlighted in blue on the layer tab. Your result should be similar to this:

    http://img7.imagesha...63/unled2qz.jpg

    Now it's looking great but nowhere near finished! Since we have seperate layers, adjust the sizes and positions of each layer to match up with the image. Remember to adjust opacity so you can see below the image to find the correct spot. Also, feel free to copy other aspects such as cheeks or neck features. For sake of simplicity I'm skipping that but the same rules apply. Also, don't be afraid to use the eraser tool, clone tool, or healing brush to clean up the layer should there be extra stuff copied over.

    Step 3:

    Now that the layers are in all the correct positions we need to change the colors. Play around in photoshop with all the image adjustment settings; levels, vibrance, hue saturation, etc. There's a million combinations but I'm not going to get into that. Try google if need be for color adjustment tutorials. It may help for some layers to permanently set the opacity lower to 85% or 75% to help blend in with the color. When all is said and done you should have something similar to this:

    http://img835.images...55/unled2qm.jpg

    Tip: Sometimes the beard can be tricky, especially the coloring. It may come out an off black or red. What I do is use "Selective Color" under Image > Adjustments. I change the Black% to 100% under Red and Black. YMMV, but adjust accordingly. Once again if your stuck try google on how to adjust colors.

    Step 4:

    Believe it or not, but we're almost done! Now we need to adjust the alpha layer. The alpha layer can be found under the "Channels" tab where the layers can be found. It will look like this:

    http://img560.images...25/unled2xe.jpg

    But right now it's wrong. It needs the beard! But what is the Alpha 1 Layer? I have no clue really, but I know it affects how things are lit within the game. You'll see how it affects the texture once you import it back into the .iff file so always remember; when you change a texture in 2K you always need to change it's alpha layer.

    So how do we do this? Simple, go back to the beard layer and hit CTR-F on the image of the layer to select it and CTR-C to copy it. Now navigate to the Alpha Channel and hit CTR-V to paste it into the Alpha 1 Layer. You should get something like this:

    http://img853.images...62/unled2oz.jpg

    This actually looks good. Sometimes we need to adjust the levels or curves to make it darker but not in this case. Be sure to deselect the selection and SAVE THE IMAGE! Wohoo we're done with his texture. BUT DO NOT CLOSE IT OUT OR MERGE ANY LAYERS! This is so you can view it in game and see if any layer changes need to be made such as position or color. If you save and exit you loose all your layers (because they merge) and beginners will have to start over from the beginning!

    To save, go to File >Save as> Save it as a .DDS. You'll see the option in the drop down box. When you do so, you get this dialog box:

    http://img801.images...86/unled2ox.jpg

    Be sure the settings are exactly how I have them. DTX5 compression with mip maps selected. Moving on!

    Step 5:

    Now we need to play with that strange green texture known as a "bump map". This one creates lighting effects once again in game and gives a 3d look to your face. 3D in a way that a face or beard or hair has texture rather than a painted on look. So editing it is very important! Sometimes you will need to erase some things in it, which is fine. Be sure to clone the color and just paint over it. In this case there is no beard, so we're going to add one.

    To get it in the exact position (because exact positions are extremely important) we're going to simply copy the green texture to our cyberface image like this:

    http://img84.imagesh...74/unled1il.jpg

    Be sure it becomes the top layer! Now, like what we did with the alpha, find the beard layer, select it so it's highlighted blue and hit CTR-F on the layer image. This will select it. Now copy and paste it to create a new layer. Move that new layer ABOVE the green texture to get this:

    http://img197.images...74/unled1vo.jpg

    But we can't have it look like this! Here comes the tricky part. With the beard layer selected to go Filter > Stylize > Emboss. Use the settings: Angle 90, Height 3, Amount 100%. This gives it a raised look. But the color is off! No problem, go back to the layer sidebar (as you can see working with layers is uber important) and change the layer filter. You'll see it's set to normal. Change it to Overlay. When working with other files you might have to play around with this to get it to look right so YMMV. Just keep at it.

    Now, MERGE the top layer (yes I said don't merger but here it's ok), which should be the beard as in my image using CTR-E, with the green layer. Now select the green layer so it's highlighted blue and hit CTR-A to select it all, copy and paste it to the green texture image and then merge the two using CTR-E. Wohoo! We're almost done! Remember what I said about alpha layers? EVERYTHING HAS ONE. So that means even the green texture. Go to the channels tab and take a look. Copy the entire alpha using CTR-A to select it all and paste it back into the cyberface image. Like this:

    http://img593.images...96/unled1vb.jpg

    Go ahead and delete the green layer we left behind by selecting it so it highlights blue and hit "Delete". Now, if your new layer isn't gray then your doing it wrong. It means you didn't actually copy the alpha layers. So be sure the alpha layer is selected when you copy it over.

    We're going to follow the same exact procedure that we did earlier. So copy over the beard, make sure it's the top layer, emboss it, and WAIT! We're not going to set it as overlay. Generally "luminosity" works well so try that. Once you've done that copy and paste it back into the alpha MAKING SURE THE ALPHA IS SELECTED AND HIGHLIGHTED IN BLUE. This should be your final result:

    http://img171.images...77/unled1ef.jpg

    Save this file as a .DDS as well using the same settings mentioned above. YOU'RE ALMOST DONE STAY WITH ME!

    Open up the mod tool with the cyber face and select "0". Hit Import Res and import the cyberface file we did. You'll see it import in. Now, do the same for "3" which is the green texture. Done. Now move the file to your 2K directory and.........OMFG WE'RE DONE YAY!

    Final Result:

    Congratulations on creating your very own cyberface!

    Your going to screw up, and it's most likely going to look like crap your first time. Maybe second time, and even third or fourth. This requires a high level of attention and ambition. If you just want to do it to get it done it will look like crap. You need to continuously practice to get it to look good. It took me a month or so to get my rhythm down right. Also, photoshop has a high learning curve. Just keep at it! Feel free to deviate from this tutorial as well. Have fun and do whatever works for you. As Veesmack on here said, make sure the "thrill" is there. This should be fun!

    Thanks for taking the time to read this. So long from =DS= and happy modding!

  6. Y4L, drop the attitude it's getting old. You may be level headed in your writings but when someone else drops an opinion it's instant blasphemy.

    Your assumptions of A-Rod are wrong yet again. He's not the only one, making $20 that's got a target on their back. I'm still hearing people cry foul over Jeter's failure to attend the all star game. Anyone making a lot of money is going to have a lot of attention. You don't think Tiger Wood's has a target on his back? But that's not my original point, of which you deviated from.

    As well, you don't have to be betting on baseball. Any kind of gambling, especially the illegal in-your-friends-basement kind is serious stuff. Want to know why we don't hear this from Jeter? Because he's not stupid enough to be involved in this. Even if he's innocent of the claims he's got no business putting himself in a position TO BE POTENTIALLY accused of illegal gambling.

    As to your second point, is the insulting attitude necessary? I'm sorry if my "child please" expression offended you but it's not meant as an insult to you. At what time did I mention anything about unbalanced schedules, or division schedules, or how division teams play 18 games? All I said was that they play each other 18 times, and all 18 are on BBTN. I don't appreciate the patronizing attitude, I was making a point about how the 18 are shown on TV, not a point about the scheduling within divisions.

  7. 1) Child please, when you make $20 million a year every thought, move, and word will be scrutinized. If he wants less attention take a smaller contract. Are the charges unfair and are "idiot" baseball fans, as you so-call them, unfair to jump on him right away? Possibly. But this is baseball we're talking about here, and this is gambling we're talking about. Not steroids, not flashing weapons in the locker room, not dating modonna. Gambling. Just ask Pete Rose how baseball feels about gambling. I don't care if he was playing strip poker with lady gaga and matt damon, if you play baseball, make that kind of money, and go near a deck of cards or a poker chip there's gonna be a lot of trouble. Thinking otherwise is foolish and ignorant.

    2) Giffords was on the front page of the New York Times, but agree...she should've received more coverage. Get shot in the head and 6 months later make it back to congress to vote? Remarkable, amazing, heroic.

    3) Alex Rios? What about Vernon Wells? It seems the only good product to leave Toronto was Halladay, and Maybe Cecil Fielder although he wasn't that good when he was there, but I digress.

    4) Off topic, but Yankees and Red Sox....who cares? No one. The rivalry is all but dead except to the most hard core of fans. Read this article: http://espn.go.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/id/14706/red-sox-yankees-rivalry-dead-how-to-fix

    18 games is way to much and all 18 are clogging up SNB. It's a money grab and ratings *****. I'd say the same thing if it was any other team. BBTN and SNB need to mix it up, but they want what brings in the cash and that's Boston, Philly, St. Louis, and New York. When was the last time you saw the Marlins and Astros on SNB or BBTN whe they were NOT playing one of the 3 above mentioned teams? I rest my case.

    5) Heyward is over hyped but so is the lesser known Austin Jackson. Both had great first seasons but are struggling to find their place in baseball. Call it the sophomore slump, but both still have a lot to prove to their team. Calling him a bum is a bit of an overstatement especially in his second season.

    6) Welcome back Dan Uggla.

    7) Should Jose Valverde be considered for AL Cy Young? 32/32 ties a major league record for consecutive saves. 2.92 ERA with a .209 average against.

  8. Having an issue where I hit post, on any forum, and it constantly says "saving" but never redirects me or completes the post. If I back out and go back into the forum, the post will be there.

  9. 1) Not only is there the fake apple store, but now a fake IKEA store. http://www.cnbc.com/id/43967635 China has no regard for intellectual property rights. As long as they can get away with whatever they want, competition and global market will be screwed. What's worse, is that this isn't just a fake product or bootleg dvd. This is mimicking an entire retail experience (such as the apple store) on a scale never seen before. China needs to be put in it's place.

    2) I will never vote for a MILF for president. Never. Especially stupid ones.

    3) The first network to offer Casey Anthony money for an interview will receive a **** storm so big, hurricane katrina will look like childs play. Now that things have settled down and it's kind of out of the public eye, no network wants to touch that. They wouldn't touch it with a condom.

    4) It's Canada eh?

    5) Yankee fans need to step playing my dick is bigger than yours with whose a better player. I think boston and new york are the only franchises that do this. In detroit, no one says oh, miguel is totally better than ty cobb. Who cares? It's from two different eras you can't compare. Yankee fans need a new hobby...

    6) New firefox sucks. I got google chrome. And now google owns just a little bit more of my life.

    7) I feel sorry for you that you now know who ann coulter is. She's the one who stated that Jews need to be "perfected". Sad thing is she graduated from U of M law school. As the saying goes, stupid is as stupid does. No surprise shes a fox news analyst?

    8) Harrison is an idiot, but he expresses the same feelings everyone else in the league has. He apologized because his agent told him to. He's going to be fined heavily again this year, count on it. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/Whitlock-Pittsburgh-Steelers-James-Harrison-remarks-on-Roger-Goodell-over-the-top-but-understandable-071311

    9) Ubaldo is having a terrible year...in the NATIONAL league. American league hitter will rip him apart. Tiger's have nothing to fear.

    9) Site looks great! Thanks trues!
