MB22 Mods - Top of the backboard ads RELEASED [with Celtics, Suns update]

Sat Feb 06, 2021 1:31 am

Hello community
I want to share a small effort in making this game better.
I made top of the backboard ads [team twitter dss file inside sxxx.iff], cos I use team arenas from multiple/different authors (shout out to all of them for making this game better) where mostly this ads are missing.
This is not a reupload of arenas from other authors (.iff file), only ads texture file (.dss file) for each team/arena with proper tutorial how to apply it on arenas in your mod folder and have a bit more in-game realism.

30 NBA Teams ads [COMPLETED]:
NOTE: ads are slightly adapted in order to avoid texture overlapping with baskets models

Hawks - Sharecare:

Cavs - DrugMart:

Grizzlies, Lakers, Timberwolves currently have no unique ads on the top of the backboard
they will have National TV (hotels.com) by default (if this changes during the season it'll be updated)

Fantastic !! Did you make the texture size larger then the original ? If you want you can make it 4 times larger i think without it being a problem ingame.

Actually, I didn't because I never knew it was possible. But I'm trying to keep textures clean with good quality ads and so far it looks good in game.

So far I noticed two types of backboard thickness and I'm adapting textures according to that, so hopefully no stretched text like with default texture.

Glad you all like the idea. I've done around half of the teams, more previews coming soon.
Complete release upon completion.

P.S. Struggling to find Kings ads, if someone knew how it looks, please post.

they will have National TV (hotels.com) by default

For those who wants their local "Bleed Green" ad - it's done by rtomb_03 as a part of his Realistic TD Garden Arena

Full package will be released in a few days upon checking if there are any changes to be done according to upcoming games.

Hello, thanks for your work, I have a question, when placing the texture and placing the code, the edge of the board loses the original color and becomes the color of the advertising texture, any solution for this problem? thanks

Hello.
Must be something due to the code lines, I didn't notice anything similar on my arenas, so I'm really not aware what causes that change...

As far as I know, complete backboard texture is inside basket_backboard_c.dss, check if you can recognize what color is inside there

Is your backboard_c.dss line of code the default? or have you made any modifications, I modified the},

"Max": [1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0],
"Binary": "basket_backboard_c.4ad9e986f35174fb.dds", is to know if I have to leave it by default, thanks for your answer (Y)

-I did the test by placing the default code and it didn't work the same for me, your line of code is the same?

Yes, mine basket_backboard_c.dds is default, I didn't change anything connected with that texture or codes.
I just edited team_twitter_url.dds texture and codes which are connected to this texture.
I belive you'll have to tweak basket_backboard_c.dds

Just wanted to write you that you have that option as well :)
rtomb_03 did that with his realism arenas. I prefer using it as separate texture, but if you have color issues and this is a solution - that's better :D

You need to import them to your sxxx.iff achieve (xxx is ID No of a team, exm. 76-ers: 000)
You will find a detailed "how to install" txt file inside download package.

Thanks, enjoy!

Looks kinda complicated to me. Above my modding level, don't want to screw anything up. Thanks again....

Uncle its very easy... you press the right mouse button on the Sxxx.iff file you want to modd and open it with winzip or whatever zip or rar program you use. Then you draw the right file you downloaded into that file. THats it. Also just make a backup of your whole mods file and there is no issue.

Thanks for this great mod

Big thanks again MB22. These work perfectly once you change the vault numbers in team sxxx team text file under team_twitter_url.tga :100: :100: :100: :100:
