QUESTION now that im up to speed

[T_DIDDY]

I see the head shapes make a hell of a difference in your players appearance this year, One we figure out how to edit headshapes my player will have my likeness more.

Anyways...Is there a way to add skin to the player this year? I tested the tatoo.viv, and i cant get the .fsh file open. Are there any skin textures this year that are editable?

I am so sick of you dam newbies who sign up and spam the forums with questions that were answered months ago. The whole point of forums is to solve problems that arise, so don't you think that maybe someone has the same one as you?
Enough of these useless threads, asking how to edit headshapes, you can't. Where is Michale Jordan, not in the game. How do I open fsh files, FshX.
I mean, you are already in the Patching Issues section, just take two damn minutes to skim the existing threads, the forum would be in much better shape if you did.
BTW, this is not an attack on T_DIDDY, he just represents the problem. I wish people who continued to do this got banned, or at least got warned, and not just "Hey buddy, next time Search first. Tee hee. I still wuv you though." Why do we even bother having rules?

First of all man I skimmed the forums and fixed some problems I had, second of all i dont see sh*t for skin editing and just asked a question that I DID NOT see answered. wtf man u that pissed off that hockey aint on that u gotta attack, yeah u used me as an example, so I see it as an attack. I looked up to you for your tutorial and still do , but that was uncalled for and yes it was like u singled me out. btw i'm not a damn noob, im just catchin up to speed cause i took a year off from patchin.

THIS IS A PATCHING ISSUES FORUM....IT DOES NOT SAY "DONT ASK QUESTIONS HERE" IF IT DID I WOULD HAVE NOT ASKED ANYTHING

[iKe7in]

Just don't ask the same questions here that have already been asked.
We have already established that we can't open skin files.
We have already established that headshapes are not editable.
We have already established that face patching is pretty much the same from years past, just much easier.

I was not trying to single you out. I figured since this was a newer thread, my comment would be more likely read, and posting in old, dead threads is against the rules.
And if you have patched before, but took a year off, why have you only been in the forum for two weeks? Did you just make a new account, or did you just never sign up all those long years ago?

Hell that was 2 years ago, I forgot my username etc. Back in 2003 it was very easy to do all this, so it was basically read and do.

I became a member once again 2 weeks ago after purchasing this game, to get back into making patches cause I missed the authenticity of being able to update players etc. compared to getting ripped off by Ps2's horrible graphics and framerate.

I was playin around with some files tonight, there has to be a way to get the skin in there. the tattoo files we may not be able to open, but as soon as we can we can just figure out what is used, and import a new tattoo file w/ the custom players name and see how its mapped out. where there's a will there's a way. And yes after messin around with it face editing was pretty damn simple this year compared to the drag and drop .fsh files etc. After i figured it out, it was coool, your tutorial on adding the portrait actually helped with that as well, props on that.

Peace not War

there r moderators so I mean its not too much of work on them to guide one person....but yeh even im learning to look around for old posts before making new ones because some ppl r hostile at times. (I dont blame em sometimes, since u get like 3-4 similar threads, but with weird topic names).

[T_DIDDY]

All good, if we sticky the threads that help most, that would help alot of new people out with this, instead of having to search topics with misleading names. If we can figure out the sizes of bmp's of the tattoo .fsh's, i bet we can make this work. I say we start off by looking at the past 2 NBA Lives, and what the skin files happened to be. I am certain they didnt just put the players tattoo patterns on a transparency, this has to be just a skin map, and why they did this posed to the past years, is beyond me.
