Request: Is it possible to mod the 22 PA announcers into 2K21?

[KyotoCarl]

I was wondering if it's possible to mod in the PA announcers from 2K22 into 2K21?

[sticky-fingers]

you can try to extract pa_audio_0XX.iff from 2K22 and put it in your 2K21 mods folder (where XX is the team ID)

here's the list of PA files (if it works)

Code: Select all

pa_audio_07.iff
pa_audio_30.iff
pa_audio_606.iff
pa_audio_607.iff
pa_audio_608.iff
pa_audio_870.iff
pa_audio_871.iff
pa_audio_872.iff
pa_audio_873.iff
pa_audio_879.iff
pa_audio_900.iff
pa_audio_902.iff
pa_audio_999.iff

pa_audio_19.iff
pa_audio_20.iff
pa_audio_11.iff
pa_audio_21.iff
pa_audio_22.iff
pa_audio_23.iff
pa_audio_25.iff
pa_audio_26.iff
pa_audio_24.iff
pa_audio_27.iff
pa_audio_28.iff
pa_audio_29.iff
pa_audio_02.iff


If it doesnt work, probably newaudio/palines/* are needed, but the IDs changed between games so unless you extract everything ...

Cool! I'll try it out.

I tried, I extracted the files and put them in my mods folder but unforunatley that doesn't work

[Marek]

Too bad, I had hopes that it'll work...

Same here! Maybe someone who's been modding sound effects and music can help to figure something out here?

For what it's worth, on 2k22 (which I believe works the same in terms of music), I experimented with exporting the game-intro music (the guitar solo type of thing) and then sticking that exact exported file back into the Hook's mod folder. Loaded up the game and got silence instead of the music. So whatever the issue is, it seems to have nothing to do with the WAV files themselves, but rather something to do with using the Hook to modify certain music folders, including eventmusic.

I agree that having the audio files from 2k22 on 2k21, especially the PA announcers, would refresh 2k21 for us and add additional longevity. I'm really hoping there is a way to make this conversion happen!

Yeah, I personally prefer the gameplay of 21 so would love to have the PA anncouncers from 22 in there. Like you said, it would be refreshing-
