A Complete Guide to an improved NBA 2K16

Another year of basketball gaming on our PCs, another year of modding, another year of fun. Let's see what we have!

Before we start
If you're a modder or an NBA 2K16 gamer and you see something missing (your mod thread, some game info), please reply or PM me, and I'll make sure to add it to the list ASAP. Also, if you want a description added next to a mod of yours, feel free to tell me and I'll add it.
PS Please upload your mods here

Rosters/Draft Classes
The base for a good experience. You need the latest and greatest rosters, which usually include the latest transfers, updated ratings, coach profiles, skills, rotations, signature moves, etc. Here's what we have so far:
•Dee4Three's Thread
•Mauroth-Kao 2K16 Draft Classes
•dwayne12345 2016/2017 Draft Classes
•Aderito's Draft Class Guide & Formulas Project


Cyberfaces
Cyberfaces are the players' faces' models, as well as face and body textures. Although 2K does a modest job providing good cyberfaces for most players, the modding community amazes us every year with its work on this front. Take a look!
•TBM's Cyberfaces
•Basagre28's (lidz28's) Cyberfaces
•R4zoR's Cyberfaces
•EmazingErik's Cyberfaces
•Davon6's Legends Cyberfaces
•AmaroWaade's Cyberfaces
•YgTrece's Cyberfaces
•buzzy's Cyberfaces
•PeacemanNOT's Cyberfaces
•fitz31's Cyberfaces
•edisonkwan's Cyberfaces
•6905790's Female Cyberfaces

•Cyberface ID List


Globals
The Global file contains textures, settings and models used everywhere in the game, such as skin textures for the players, specific game icons, etc. Globals combine several modders' work on many fronts into one file, so check out each global's feature list to see what updates you're getting with it.

Jerseys
Jerseys are as important to the game as coffee is to a good breakfast of mine. And in Clark Kellog's words, "DON'T MISS BREAKFAST!"
•Pinoy21's Jerseys
•SJ2525's Jerseys


Graphics Enhancers
Files that aim on improving the game's visuals. What's a game without these awesome presets?
•goldenstate77's thread
•rena23's SFX


Tools
From the beginner to the expert, modders need tools. If you want to get into modding or want to find that missing tool that does the job you wanted, look here!
•gregkgwaste's NBA 2K16 Explorer - a tool that opens up 2K16 files for viewing, exporting, and importing
•Limnono's Modifier - Modifier to edit things like your MyCareer, a Created player or simply just a Real player on a roster
•Kevin's ENB/FXAA/SweetFX Manager & Remover Tool - tool that deletes every known file concerning ENBs, SweetFX, etc.
•maumau78's Floor Shader Editor - It's a useful tool to change floors shader RGB value to whatever you like


ALL-IN-ONE THREADS
These threads almost have it all.
•[EGS-MLLR]'s (ldc1024) thread

Emazing and Davon's thread will be added soon.

no worries, I was just kidding. My thread is for a tool btw, not a graphic enhancer

Updated, added Davon6's EmazingErik's and Manni's threads + moved Kevin's thread to tool section.

Added Amaro's thread

Hi Samke! I'm a newbie when it comes to this. I was able to download the things that could improve my NBA2k16 experience but I don't know where to put them after extracting them. Thanks in advance and sorry for my noobness.

Make sure to check out this threads:

viewtopic.php?f=221&t=99943

viewtopic.php?f=221&t=100128

viewtopic.php?f=222&t=99944

It should make things clear.

PS I'm updating list all the time, but I won't post about it everytime I change something.

Where do all these updates go? What folders? Just asking thanks.

My thread still isn't listed here.

List it in the all-in-one threads.

Sorry Kevin. Updating right now
PS I need advice from you, cause you are 'experienced' in making threads like this. There are threads that have multiple things, but they are not all-in-one. Should I make new group?

I usually put them in the all-in-one threads if they've released 2+ stuff for 2-3 different file type. If not, then I just put them in one of the categories that he is really focusing in.

Thanks man! I updated first post

Wouldn't want to be picky but you should just remove the parentheses in the all-on-one threads, it's not that good to look at.

Also, this symbol "•" wasn't used in the all-in-one threads.

Not picky at all. Removed parentheses and added "•"

Updated. (Just a couple of changes)

Hi ... I'm new to NBA 2k16 mods patching and I don't want to create a new thread just to ask this
