Mauroth Realistic Draft Classes: 2017 NEEDS YOU!

[jyap18]

please add Bobby Ray Parks Jr. (International) 6'4 SG from the Philippines...... he declared for this year's NBA Draft.....

Hey men! Is that true? Im from the Philippines and he is great and strong player. He can play in NBA because he is somehow athletic and can drive and finish. Bobby Ray Parks

[Alpha_]

He applied for the draft in Memphis last month. He will likely go undrafted though.

[mauroth]

Hey, just to tell you that you are doing a great work

By the way, could you just give the ID's for Bogdanovic and Westermann ?

You mean the player ID or the CF ID? They both have generic actually.

The CF ID, I wanted to assign him the CF from the Euroleague patch

No CF ID because his CF is generic. You know who made the CF?

[mauroth]

Can you add Devyn Marble to 2014 draft class?

I'm not sure he'll get drafted, but given the last "evil jimmer" bad quotes...I'll think about it

Never heard about him. The 2014 draft is very deep and honestly I don't know who should I erase to add him...

Hy Mauroth!

Congratulations for your work!

I've a problem with your file.

I've download the Bamz update file and the March Madness mod. (That 2 files for the face).
But, some players haven't face (like Okafor...) Why? I've problem or they're not modelled?

[Kiddlovesnets]

I downloaded his draft classes and there was no problem, no missing CFs after importing every pngxxxxx file from March Madness. And thanks for the 2016 draft class, OP!

You're right actually they he has a generic CF. From next update he'll use the extra CFs added in King Mellow Draft classes (thanks mate!)

You are welcome, and hows the status of 2017 draft class? It will still take me a whole to get to 2016-2017 season though, maybe 2-3 months? XD

It will take a week more/10 extra days max. So mid of june.
The ratings and the tendencies are almost done, but I'm waiting for JunkYardDog animations (he's a top on this) and fixing the aspects.
Again, if someone wants to help with look a like CF...don't hesitate.

[Kiddlovesnets]

I see, mid-june seems reasonable. Right now I am in 2015-2016 season, so after this current season is over I will need the 2017 draft class. My team has a very promising youth squad. Joel Embiid = C, Julius Randle = PF, Kawhi Leonard = SF, Andrew Wiggins = SG, Rajon Rondo = PG, with bench players Danny Green(backup SG), Draymond Green(backup SF), Cliff Alexander(backup PF), Tyus Jones(backup PG), Greg Oden(backup C), etc. By the year 2017 it will be an elite team capable of contending for trophy, and top contender in 2018.

wow...monster team! Pity you can't afford to retain them all in next seasons

[Kiddlovesnets]

Thanks, I am building a team that can make a serious playoffs run for 2017 and 2018. I'm trying to keep Embiid, Leonard, Wiggins and Rondo, the others are movable and if I cant resign them Id trade them for picks. So long as I keep the four core players, this squad should be good for a few years. Good thing Leonard and Rondo did not sign max contracts, so when Embiid and Wiggins develop I should be able to resign them.

The funny thing is that in this game you can trade huge contract like Joe Johnson's for top draft picks. Such things never happen irl, maybe in next NBA2K they should add a feature called 'garbage/junk contract' so players signed for such contracts are difficult to move until they are about to expire?

honestly speaking, 2k AI is very poor. Especially during the draft, but in trades and contracts too. Anyway sometimes this can be very useful to the user, just look at your picks! And winning should keep the stars motivated.

[Kiddlovesnets]

Oh yeah, the CPU's AI in terms of draft picks. I see that the CPU teams have a very good chance selecting a scrub while passing a future star. I recall in 2014 NBA Draft the Celtics kept selecting Willie Cauley-Stein(I used Bamz's 2014 draft class atm) whose overall rating was like 67 and with potential no greater than 75, while in 2015 NBA Draft Jahill Okafor was passed all the way down out of lottery so I was lucky enough to pick him up(eventually traded him and Deron Williams for Rondo and next years picks, a huge price to pay but I already had Embiid anyway, also good chance Celtics' next picks will be in lottery). It kinda feels like cheating, but its the game's flaws anyway.

And btw, any plans to work on draft class beyond 2017 after it's done? I see a 2018 draft class prospects list in KingMellow's thread, maybe it will help a little?

I added two 2018 players to my 2017 draft class because their birth year would make them eligible. I don't plan to create a 2018 draft class simply because there's little to none information on the top prospects a part from the top 5. So basically it would be comparable to a fictional draft class with real names. Which isn't bad.
But that's now the way I'm working. In all my 2014 to 2017 draft classes, each player is built following different scouting reports.

Hey boys, why am I only getting white arms? I installed the March Madness CFs from the list.

Which players have white arms? Does it happens also with the March Madness players? In this case I guess you didn't install well the CFs.

Hmm. I installed and followed your instructions to a tee though. Should I install ALL March Madness CFs? Almost everyone doesn't have CF, except for Bamz.

Nope, the png ids provided in the first post are enough. This is strange... you're the only one with this issue.

Oh... Sad little girl that I am. lol

Okay, where do I get CFs for Emmanuel Mudiay, Cliff Alexander?

In actual draft classes, both have generic CFs. In the next update they'll get a real CF. Still I can't understand why you can't see Ncaa CF anyway... are you using JSGME?

[IllCON]

Does anyone have a good Stauskas cyberface?

[louissecp]

thank you... been looking for these....
