NBA 2k10 Bodytweaks & suggestions

Hey all, since NBA 2k10's bodyshapes are very general (while some are off), I've taken upon myself to edit certain players bodyshapes through using REDitor to get the bodyshapes to look realistic. I've already done a few, and thought I'd share it with the community and to encourage others who might be more skilled than me to take part in this type of modding. The pictures noted with "D" is for default, for comparison.

Oh, and also feel free to post player's bodyshape suggestions and tweaks, as some players bodyshapes are way off in the default 2k roster.I want to make this thread a resource for roster makers to make their roster's as visually accurate as possible, so please contribute with your own tweaks as well.


I don't take any requests.

UPDATED: Guide for the Tweak values.
Please refer to vl@d Zola Jr.'s REDitor thread for reference on other values. Credits to him for making REDitor.

Bodytype values start from 0-7. Below are the groups.

First bodytype group is skinny, ectomorph type. Values are: 0-2

Second bodytype group is the built, mesomorph type. Values are: 3-4

Third bodytype group is the heavy, endomorph type. Values are: 5-7
Note, there are real no differences among the values within the groups, so stick to using the first value. (0, 3, 5).

Now, the bodytweak values (Categories in parenthesis means that they are the same, just with inverted values):
Values range from -128 to 127
I'll post the categories that I've observed to have noticeable changes that are practical.

(BTShldrThck & BTShldrThn): Modifies the size of the upper arm (elbow and up). For thck, positive value is to enlarge, negative is to shrink. Vice versa for Thn.

(BTFarmThck & BTFarmThn): Modifies the size of the forearm (elbow and down). For thck, positive value is to enlarge, negative is to shrink. Vice versa for Thn.

??BTSmth??: Modifies the shoulders. Positive value lowers & rounds the shoulders, while a negative value raises the shoulders. Here's an image for reference

BTChstSize: Widens or narrows the shoulders & a bit of the chest. Positive value to widen, negative value to narrow. Note that for this value, extremely end values (127, -128) will yield the same results, that of the shoulders being disproportionately wide. Reference image

(BTLegsThn & BTLegsThck):Modifies the legs from the knee up.

BTClvsThn: Modifies the size of the calves.

And that's it in a nutshell

Totally forgot about a before & after pic. Posted up

Can you post tweaks for D. Fisher and S. Brown?

can you make kobe bryant body tweak? he needs a body tweak men

Sorry fellas, but please read what I wrote on my first post if you hadn't already done so.

I believe you should concentrate on all-star and superstar players at first

Well, regardless of a player's status, if his bodyshape in real life is not matched with the default in-game bodyshapes, then I'll mod it.




Posted Chris Paul, refer to original post
Also, I'll be posting a guide on how to tweak, and how the numerical values change the player's shapes and templates on body types (i.e, the built, muscular athlete like Lebron)

you made dwight and lebron way to thin not enough muscle thats what dwight looked like as a rookie see comparison below

K, bulked Dwight and Lebron a bit, better? (the first image is the new, edited version)

perfect dwights legs need to be thinner

nice...

I'm preparing that. Will post a guide soon.

sir please makew bodytweak for rudy gay and kenyon martin
thanks

K, posted a brief guide with a reference template, refer to original post. I was about to do one with a bunch of pictures for a pictorial guide, but I'm still struggling to adjust to GIMP after using Photoshop for so many years, and currently swamped with schoolwork, work and modern warfare 2 right now, so I felt that text would suffice. Anyways, I hope it was of help.

Yo bro... make a tweak on RON ARTEST.... that guy really needs it.. great thread

(BTLegsThn & BTLegsThck):Modifies the legs from the knee down.

BTClvsThn: Modifies the length of the calves.

corrections.

can you make rajon rondo bodytweak pls.

Hey, man!

Nice idea! And thx for that BTSmth ))) I'll edit this in the next version to appropriate name.

Btw, I suppose, 5 and 7 make some difference...

And also I would like to make a small request ))) Not request, actually, but: maybe you would mind to create some Script with TURK-feature of REDitor? So, evereone can apply all your bodyshapes to their rosters by just one click of the mouse (as it is done for xiaoju's shoes patch)...

Actually, when I was making the guide, I took screenshots of 5, 6, 7 of two different angles, that of front and sides and noticed no difference between the three.

I have no idea how to do that, but I would encourage anyone with the knowledge of making that kind of script to feel free to incorporate my existing bodytweaks to rosters.

sir what do you think..how about to tweak andrew bynum..i think he's normal body is wide than the real?? what do you think??

can you do the body tweaks for Michael Jordan

can you do the body tweaks for Michael Jordan

seconded since we got 3 or 4 cyber faces and custom heads a body would be great to have to go with it.
