Version 2 is much better.... I think so....

Fri Feb 29, 2008 4:06 am

yeah maybe a little wierd but anyway i don't now why it looks like next gen :shock: :S :D and i love it :!: :twisted: very impressive work bro :cool: thanks.
I realised that 2.1 has a some kind of diffrent dynamic light. The shine efect chenges constantly in every part of the player and i think that is the main reason which is making it like a next gen lightning.
keep up the good work. (Y)

I've tried and i agree with you.

to tell you the truth the version before that ummm v2 i think was better. It's just because this version players look more plastic thus less realistic... but i like what you did with the jersey lighting looks much better! maybe you can use these picture as a guide for your next version:

Great work B&B. While there are some things from V2 that I liked and wish you retained, you've fixed and made some improvements. Again, I'll post some screens so you and others can see what it looks like.


1...2...

punch

best 3rd option in the league:

dark court

medium lit court

bright court

previous v2 lighting file jus for mini comparison

newer v2.1...

I find that V2.1 is just a bit on the dark side. But then again v2 was slightly too bright and shiny. I can see where you're going with the lighting style this time. It's def got more of that next gen feel. I think the skin is more realistically lit, and the jersey lighting is amazing. Fairly good balance; not as overly saturated like the older version. But again, it's just too dark.

Perhaps you can find a compromise and meet somewhere in the middle between the two versions. The vibrance of v2 and the gritty realism of v2.1

Again, great work. You provide a polish that makes the game look incredible. keep it up.

ei B&B...
i've just tried your V2.1 lighting patch...
still for me the V2.0 is still better...
anyway..
keep updating...
:D
base your work on 2.0 :lol:

yes sir. right on the money.
to be even more specific, i'm using Webberf1's 1x version of xiaoju's v4.5 shoe patch. I haven't had the time to check to see of there's a 1x version of the v5.0 shoe patch yet.

Also, I use both Lagoa's and Dahl's courts. check em both out. Dahl's an NBA Live patching legend but Lagoa is just as noteworthy a patcher.

uh...
still your v2.0 is better... :?
as we are saying...
base your update on 2.0... and we suggest that you only change lighting reflection... but the darkness hue and contrast is enough.. and i think the shine is just enough... just fix the neck and thats it!... :P

Sun Mar 02, 2008 12:38 pm

another thing...
maybe the quality of your screens (appearance of jersey shoe and court) affects the looks of your lighting...
take better screens so we could tell something about your new patch..
for me 2.0 is better!...
:D

sweat - I'm using SG's "no-sweat lines" version of Pdub's sweat patch. It's basically Pdub's sweat patch but without the dripping sweat. In my opinion it looks a lot cleaner.

jerseys - Conr4d's 512 (aka 2x, b/c the originals are 256) jerseys.
link: http://www.nbaliveforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=53059

courts: i use both Dahl's and Lagoa's court patches. I then follow Pdubs tutorial to shrink some of the court files b/c some of the files are too large, thus causing the game to crash if you use a lot of high res patches.

yep. anytime, i think everybody deserves a chance to experience these NLSC heros' fine work.

Blood915 wrote: can u upload ur court?


you mean my altered ones, the one's with shrunken/smaller court files?
I would but i would need permission from lagoa and Andreas Dahl first.

It's really not that difficult to do, just use FshX to open up the ***crt.fsh files and shrink anything thats bigger than 512.
But, if you seriously have no idea what i'm talking about, then just PM me your email and i'll email them to you.
