If the ps4 camera is not plugged in, is likely that the feature will not sure up.

Why 2K went about scanning your face and the trouble of making the software to do that when they could have just allowed users to upload pictures or something, I don't know.


Didn't one of the NBA Lives have that option one year? If I recall, it didn't work too well. Looked ridiculous like they just stuck a flat 2d sticker onto the top of the player's torso.

I think they make you sit there for 2 minutes to capture the 3d facial features from multiple forward angles. That's why you have to move your head left and right during the scan. Pretty awesome technology. Plus, the games these days feature player expressions too, maybe not something they could do with photos.

Face-in-the-Game was alright for its time if you used it properly, but it's definitely primitive compared to the face scanning.

What I would like to see in an update is some extra options for the face scanning. Some color correction for artificial lighting could fix a lot of issues.

Our cellphone cameras have it, is just software. Presets for daylight, incandescent, fluorescent, and some sliders for cool-warm lighting, tint, saturation, brightness and contrast should be able to improve face scans immensely. Even a fade option for the edges so people can remove those black marks around the jaw and cheek.

Agreed. (Y) Guess I'll have to invest in a camera after all.

I finally got a good one. I kept getting things behind me textured on to the side of my jaw. Instead of starting facing the camera, I started facing the left, then slowly moved to the right. I'll post a thread of progress later on.There were some make fails.

I tried that with a bottle of tequila that is shaped like a skull. It picks it up for half a second, then Lee's track.

For anyone continuing to have trouble, I just discovered you can calibrate the camera in the ps4 settings. I did one scan and the head shape turned out great, but the texture still had issues on the cheeks and jaw.
