Is there a way to access alternate hair files?

Postby fritodelay on Sat May 02, 2020 9:28 am

Players like Karl Anthony Towns, Robert Covington and Kelly Oubre all have alternate hairstyles included in NBA2K20, although you can only see them in-game and not while you're in edit mode.

I've tried using NBA2K explorer and nothing appears once I apply the alternate files. Is there any way?

Find them, I know where they're at, but when I extract them and place them in a player's file they're just invisible.

I think there is a way to edit the appearance_info.RDAT file inside the png.iff to display the alt hair in different scenarios.


IIRC you can set up that appearance_info.RDAT to display the primary hair when no head band is worn, then display alternate hair when the headband is worn. Example. De'angelo Russell.

I know you can go even further then that assigning hats, headphones, tie handbands, and more just using appearance_info.RDAT

I don't know much more then that. I haven't checked into it in weeks.
