2003 => 2004 cyberfaces ?

[Ben-le-ouf]

There are a few missing players that I would like to have in my rosters.
But they are players who didn't play a lot or at all this season. There is no picture of them on the web. And they are not special and exciting players, so I understand patchers do not really want to make them.

Some of these players were in the NBA Live 2003 game. So I was thinking, will someone be OK to use the NBA Live 2003 cyberfaces and make them work for NBA Live 2004 ? It'd be really cool.

Here is the list of missing players who (I think) have not been created yet, but do exist in NBA Live 2003.
Dana Barros
Derrick Dial
Ernest Brown
Jason Collier
Leon Smith
Matt Barnes

Yeah it will work... but you might indeed make some O editing and toning of colors, the skins in particular... but importing the eact VIV file of player from 2003 to 2004 will cause crashing... i tried it. Better save the bhed files nd find any player that will match him... for example i convert jason collier... the nearest player that i could get which regards to headshapes and color is carlo arroyo's, so i import the bhed file to carlos arroyo's and then do some editing with Oedit.. Very contented with the results but need a little more practice.... Hope that helps...

I've managed to convert some NBA Live 2003 faces for NBA Live 2004 with using OEdit, but sometimes it takes a couple of attempts to get the right headshape. I've managed to match bheds from NBA Live 2003 with suitable (original) headshapes from NBA Live 2004 players though.

That's what I tried for Patrick Ewing. I extracted his bheds from nbalive2003, and tried to match them with someone else's headshapes from nbalive2004 (I think it was Malik Rose). But it looked ugly.

(Finally someone gave me a link for a new Ewing cyberface patch.)
