CMP: Let's find hidden players!

[Leftos]

With the help of my new Roster Editor, we can now start editing a few things around the roster. Right now, those things are just the signature skills.

But there's still a problem. There's no way to discern the players other than their position in the roster, which I translate to a "Player ID".

EDIT: Apparently, finding Player IDs for the players assigned to teams is really is, as the player order in the default roster follows the default rotations and team order. So it's just a matter of pressing Reset Roster and then going through the rotations for each team alphabetically.
So 76ers players, as you see them in the rotation screen, are players 0 to 11.
Now if someone could compile the list for me, I'd be really grateful.

That way, we can build a basic database of the players currently in the game, and their IDs. If the database gets full enough, I'll add the names to the tool, so that you'll be able to select a player by name, and not just enter their ID.

Just a tip, according to the rosters from 2K12 and 2K12, the players can be order by the team they are in.

The first PID are for the Sixer's Players and the last for Warrior's players.

I'm gonna create a list in a couple of hours.

[Leftos]

Yeah, I edited my first post accordingly, Hyperballer21 from the OS forums gave me that tip.

If you compile the list, I could get it in the tool in no time, and you'll be able to find a player by their name instead of ID.

By the way, a name per line will do, I don't need anything else, just all the player names in the right order. If you want to add the corresponding ID separated by comma or tab or whatever, even better, but you don't have to.

[Leftos]

Here is the roster order by team types:

1) Current Teams - by rotation order
2) Special/Hidden Teams - by rotation order
3) Classic Teams - by rotation order (Celeb team, VC teams, USA Teams, etc)
4) Bunch of CAT slots - by entry order
5) Bunch of CAP slots - by entry order
6) Default Free Agents - by ABC order (last, first)
7) HIDDEN Free Agents - by ABC order (last, first)
8) Hidden Rookies - by draft order

I'm doing the list here. Right now I only have the 76ers players, but I found a easy way to find the IDs.

For those who want to help contribute to the project started by sir Leftos by using CheatEngine, I've been able to find the Player ID address: 015173D8 OR nba2k13.exe+11173D8 (4 Bytes).

You can just follow the order in the rotations screen solovoy. Reset Roster, and then go to Rotations, and check each team. The order of the players is the default rotation order.

Ah, it's actually that easy, huh? That's good to know. I was trying to find out in which way the Player ID's were sorted. Thanks.

[Leftos]

Yap, it is that easy, but once new players are added in the roster updates, we'll need the memory address you posted to find out their IDs. Don't think they'll reorganize the whole roster, they never have.

[Leftos]

solovoy, can you make the document public so that others that want to contribute can do so?

[daninoz]

How many players do you need?

[Leftos]

Well, the more the better. You can always make the document public as I said and let others continue if you get tired. Should help us when future rosters get released and we need the player IDs for the newly added players.

[daninoz]

The document is now public.

[Leftos]

Mother of all that's holy, I've managed to found the team rotation for the 76ers and assign a completely different player! Time to go hunting for hidden players, isn't it?

Any ideas of Player IDs I should be trying?

Try the PID between 383 and 412. You can also try the PID after 827.

If you want some help, just send me a PM.

[Leftos]

Why those IDs Solovoy? I'm honestly curious.

[daninoz]

Why those IDs Solovoy? I'm honestly curious.

383 is the ID of the last player in warriors rotation and 412 is the ID of Russell, first one in the Legends teams. I don't know what is in the middle. Maybe locked teams.

827 is the id of the last player in the rotation of the 01-02 Kings. After that I don't know what is there, maybe just empty cells.

1289 is the first Free Agent, by the way.

[Leftos]

solovoy, can you please do me a favor and help me by downloading Roster Editor and trying out different Player IDs for the 5th 76ers player? I've added it to the version I've just released. Just change the ID, press save, reload the roster in-game and see who comes up. Make sure to note any hidden players in your Google Doc. I have to work on my thesis a bit for now, but I'll be back to do my own testing soon.

[Leftos]

384 is Magic Johnson, 385 is Michael Jordan. We're about to reassign the Dream Team baby!

[uberpute]

png0005 allen iverson.

[daninoz]

Yep. The players between 384 and 411 are the ones from the Dream Team and from the USA team. After 827 there are players from the 2K team and the celeb team after that. Thats what I found by the moment.

[Leftos]

Players between 384 and 407 you mean. 408-419 give me the '64 Celtics.

[Leftos]

Definitely finding some really nice hidden guys after 1300 in the Free Agents list (that aren't in the Free Agents in the game).

[Leftos]

2nd rounders after 1409

EDIT: Seem to be placeholder players. They have CFs and Portraits and all their info set, but their ratings are the same for everyone. With a bit of work, we'll have them all in the game and our favorite roster makers can fix their ratings.

Nothing before the Free Agents. A lot of hidden players (retired, overseas, only drafted) after.
