D43 - Ultimate Classic Team Roster - VERSION 3 RELEASED!

[Dee4Three]

Default classic teams are finished, putting the finishing touches on a few of the new classic teams.

Still shooting for a weekend release, but I took Monday off from work because I have vacation time I can use, so if not this weekend.... Monday.

Quick update.

So over the last 3 days, I've spent over 20 hours on this roster trying to complete it. PeacemanNOT has also put a ton of hours into the art edits, he just finished the 60-70s jerseys, and is working on some of the stadiums.

I know I said Monday would be the possible release date, but we may need to push back a few more days.

Thanks for your patience, it's a ton of work.

Yeah no problem about that, we all wanna test it, but 2-3 more days are fine guys,you do a great work!

[Dee4Three]

Friday is the official release date. So you guys will get to play it Friday, it won't be pushed back any further. I have the day off from work that day, I'll make sure to give one big mod pack download, and also have a separate multiple link download section.

Thanks for the patience. You guys will love it.

That hasn't been planned yet, but...

Would somebody be interested in creating a draft class with the hidden classic players that havn't made it onto this roster? Like Cousy, Glen Rice, Rick Barry, etc?. Would be could to have for when a myleague season is finished, pretty cool crop of new classic players to choose from.

Nice yu re releasing the mod Friday, nice Easter
I would rather prefer some more classic teams instead of draft classes, though it may be cool as well.... In the end whatever yu do ll be welcomed!!

[jacssalas]

Oooh that's still cool, broo. To be honest, this project's lit. Thank you so so much for your hard woork. People are so pumped! Good luck in life, D43

Nice to hear that !!

[Dee4Three]

V1 will be released Friday.

For a future V2, the 5 teams I would like to add:

59-60 Boston Celtics:

Why? Bob Cousy deserves to be in the league, it's that simple.

00-01 Bucks:

Why? Because they were { } <-- That close to making the NBA Finals over Iverson.

96-97 Charlotte Hornets:

Why? Because they had Glen Rice, and I would love to get a primed Glen Rice in the league. They also won 54 games.

82-83 Spurs:

Why? George Gervin and Artis Gilmore, of course.

66-67 Warriors:

Why? Rick Barry and Nate Thurmond.


The top 3 choices can be done with no CF work, however... for the bottom two teams, I would need a Nate Thurmond made, and maybe a couple other players.

I've been able to create this roster with some made faces, but also a lot of combo faces and lookalikes. For the legends however, I do not believe combos or lookalikes are acceptable.

If anybody wants to step up and make a Nate Thurmond for me, let me know.

[Dee4Three]

Also, this is not a one, two, or even three person project. I can't do all the players attributes/tendencies/sig styles/Vitals/, Combo players, lookalikes, court converts, PLUS fixing the body types of the classic players who need it. PeacemanNOT is doing Jerseys, lighting edits, faces, cheat engine stuff, accessories etc, and my brother is doing Portraits.

I asked TBM a few months ago to do shrink wrapping of players to give them a more realistic appearance (shrink wrapping through blender, if that's your method of choice). But he hasn't been on the forums in a couple weeks, and he may have not been able to get to it.

Does ANYBODY want to step up and do some body type edits???

The UBR had like 20-30 people working on it, right now.. actively.. we have like 3. Manni did an amazing 10-11 Bulls court for me (Thank you!!). But can somebody else step up and help out a little?

Thanks,

Man this is amazing, amazing work! I wish I could help, sadly I'm absolutely no good at anything when it comes to stuff like that. Just one question because I absolutely love the Bad Boys... has anybody been able to finally give Bill Laimbeer a face that doesn't look like it's made from molten cheese on an old N64?

[Dee4Three]

Thanks Hedop,

I agree about Laimbeer, they make him look like Bill LAMEbeer... get it? Not funny I know.

Kevin Willis is another one that makes me cringe, he looks nothing like himself.

Seriously, thanks for that Bulls court. It looks flawless. I did a ton of court converting from past gen 2k, and the courts look good (Like that 96-97 Heat court you see there), I wish I could make the reflections show more though, even just slightly.

But for now, they look solid.

No problem man, by the way are you using lagoa's latest template? He found a way to increase the reflections on it

I believe so? I have to double check.

Why isn't TBM's prime Rose cf?
Can't wait for roster, really.

[Dee4Three]

Zets, this was before I put it in. TBM's Rose prime face will be in the mod pack.

[PeacemanNOT]

All accessories are finished too, this video must be old.

Correct, this was before you did them.
