College Hoops 2K13 V2.0! Cyberface Makers Wanted!

What exactly do you mean "There will be no 2k14"?
This mod will now only be built on 2k13, even after the new game is released?
Couldn't you just create the 2013-2014 season for 2k13 for the start of the NCAA season then convert it to NBA 2k14 once REDitor is released for 14? Just like they did with the 2k11 mod

How do you import a headshape into Blender? I looked at that video tutorial, and that option isn't in Blender for me o.O

follow this to make sure you ahve the right version of blender and installed the plugins properly

Yes we are going to make 2013-14 and would convert it should '14 come out, however there has been a lot of speculation (and an announcement from 2K i believe?) that they won't be releasing 2k14 for the pc

Everyone I've talked to asking about where the no 2K14 PC rumor came from seems to wind up at the Podcast I did with during the summer where we speculated if there wasn't a game next year. There has been no official word for or against, but there never is this early. Just enjoy 2K13 for another few months before the hype machine begins.

just an fyi,
this is the official like the "Before the game released" cover from amazon..it has pc, but i aint making any assumptions

Question for anyone who does jerseys..

The problem I have in creating realistic looking jerseys are..

1) What exactly makes a good "base" for a team? Just the number and logo placement? Or should I look for the sides to match like the team I am creating? (If not the latter, do I just create the sides myself by adding the shapes/color?

2) How do you guys make the letters on the jersey? Example, FGCU, I have no font that looks like it enough and I cannot find a picture to copy the picture of their letters. Any ideas?

If these questions can be answered, I can finally figure this jersey thing out and contribute, these are my stopping points so far.

How do you import a headshape into Blender? I looked at that video tutorial, and that option isn't in Blender for me o.O

I've been working on getting all of this down forever, and think I have it, and I know the position your in, so pm me any questions you have,

First did you download the old blender? if so do you have the other mod tool? (the one that doesn't work on 2k13, and isn't in chinese?) well in there you add the import and the export .2km to the Blender "saves" folder, where you then go to that tool and go to the player's 3d headshape, then import it into blender using the "Import nba 2km" and then you have the headshape in.

removed VCU from list of teams needing jerseys, found and converted theirs from 2k12

Okay guys, Working on FGCU.

Here is a VERY rough preview of them. The shorts still need to be detailed and the jerseys need the logo slightly arched along with the numbers and names being fixed (they are being cut off IDK why, might have to find a new base) and the sides need to be done.

I found a font that was VERY close to their actual font and unless someone can explain how to get the actual look of the font, I am stuck there.

Please give me feedback on what you see and I will try my best to add it to the fix list. Once again, VERY ROUGH preview.

just copy and paste the FGCU from a pic of their jersey into the dds file and then blend it in and make it look nice. Try this pic:



or google Florida Gulf Coast Jersey if you need a better one

also, quick update on mod status:

Finalized and added 54 of the 68 jerseys into the game itself. Now the mod currently has all 68 tournament teams in the game and 54 of them have jerseys, I'll post some previews tomorrow as well as add the logos and courts that I have into the game.

Even if there will be no 2k14 for pc then there will stil be a REDitor for it because there will be a version for Xbox 360 But so far all news points towards a pc release of it to so I wouldnt worry to much about.

Okay, FGCU is almost complete. The numbers on the back are probably a little too big, but I can not find a good number set to fix that or if it is because of the base jersey. Everything else looks pretty good to me. If anyone wants to try and add the details to the sides of the jersey and shorts, let me know and I will post the file for you. John, if you want the file let me know, I think I am done with it from what I can manage.

*ALSO If anyone knows how to remove the NBA logo (on shorts and jersey, it covers their conf logo) please tell me or i will send it to you so you can!



EDIT::

Here is the file anyways, John if you are happy with that, it is good to go, if anyone wants to detail it a little more, feel free!

I can fix the numbers, the shorts, and the collar for you if you don't mind

No! Fix what you can man. This was my first uniform. How exactly do you decide the numbers for a team? Just by browsing through teams and finding something that is similar or what? All the files should be in that rar file, if not let me know!

Also, looking back, was Cleveland a bad base? What base would you have chosen or going to choose? (For future references, just curious what you would have picked for FGCU)

I would've used Duke as a base

Love to see people working together.

and the nba logo is removed through the global so it should be removed in the game if i global is used...im good with acsecories, so i plan on helping with the globals

and the nba logo is removed through the global so it should be removed in the game if i global is used...im good with acsecories, so i plan on helping with the globals

sounds great man. If you finish any textures just send them to me and I'll compile a global for the mod. Planning on using one of the great globals on this site as a base and then replacing all nba stuff with ncaa stuff.

Okay, finished FGCU home jersey. Using duke as a base was genius. Made it so much easier and better. Thanks ngwilli!

Also, what text are you using for the jersey for the away? I did not put any letters because I believe it is the same and wanted to see what you used. I am attaching the whole file again so if you wanna add the letters that'd be great.

Everything else looks complete to me.

Iona is my next goal. Will hopefully have theirs shortly.

i have a few that i made before...i can also do some college tshirts for my playe if u want

here was my thread with them..http://forums.nba-live.com/viewtopic.php?f=149&t=91004

good stuff vnardella, will definitely be using that stuff! Can you add the nike logo to the socks? FGCU home looks great BleedingRed, can you do their away ones just like that?

Most important thing is accessories/socks. Send john the files you created for the Nike socks that overwrite the ankle wraps, the 2-tone Nike sleeve that should overwrite the normal arm sleeve, etc.

You also said you can remove NBA logos from socks. Can you replace it with a Nike logo? This would be useful for Nike teams who only wear white or black socks. How about replacing the NBA logo on the headband with a Nike logo?

Can you also send me the files for those? I'm interested to see what they look like in Photoshop as I've never seen it before. Once I do, I may be able to help on that end as well.

Also, john, I strongly suggest using Lagoa's early skinny leg body types for this mod, as college players collectively are much thinner than their NBA counterparts. It was one of his earlier models before going back to a thicker frame/leg, and it would be perfect for NCAA players I think.

@bigh0rt, if i replace with the nike logo, it will also replace the nba logo on the jersey with the nike logo

@johnbuckeyefan the nike logo is on the socks, u just cant see it from the angle

if you use one of the iff files from the 70s retro teams as a base there is no NBA logo to deal with. But since you guys are doing an overwriting global, just do that.
