It is not a problem, but it shouldn't involve any money in it. Patching was supposed to make the game more enjoyable and most importantly, free of charge. True, the author of the tool have all the rights in the world to make money off it, but it goes against the actual purposes of patching : To make the game better and more enjoyable for all those playing the game.

This is modifly message Snowfom and this is the important....we are here to make 2k9 much better and more enjoyable for all those playing the game...and for us too...

Soo i say once again....PLEASE give us the tool.....if you want some money we can give you.....i will give you...but just relesed the tool....

Our tool is better and won't be released this time.


What's the point of that? Seems too selfish for me.

If you planned to release and sucessfully translated it to english, why not to release right away? We all had been pacient waiting for this tools, complimenting your jobs, filling up your egos, but acctually i don't think you ever REALLY planned to release any tools. Different of everyone here that works for free, you think plan to make profit with 2K work.

I wish 2k release its own iff tools, so all this tiring conversation would come to an end AND no $$$ eyes programmer would make money with 2k work.
It's not about 10, or 100 ou even 1 buck, it's about principles.

For those who spend time and effort trying to make this great game even better for everyone FOR FREE, I SALUTE YOU ALL.

Cheers

Who is the bastard? F**u**c**k U !


Excuse me? Since when did I disrecpect you? No need to swear hear mate, nobody is a bastard and no need to fuck anybody up. I'm not disrecpecting anyone, and most importantly I'm not disrecpecting any Chinese. My ancestors are Chinese. I have Chinese blood. Why would I want to disrecpect part of myself? I honour Yao Ming man. Get your facts right.

You guys never get it do you? For years we've been sharing everything we created. Since the NBA Live era we've been sharing tools for FREE which allows you to patch the game. FSHX, Ebodit, the list goes on. We share the spotlight, we share the joy. Even right now Pdub and JaoSming are sharing the methods of patching 2K9 without any hesitation. Who was the person that discovered the use of texmod right on the very first day that 2K9 was released on PC? Who was the person who managed to crack the headshape file? And now you're saying that we disrecpect you, eventhough the author planned to charge money? If you dont call that selfish then I dont know what is. I'll tell you what. If we want to pay money in order to get the tool, then we would have hired a good programmer in the first place.

I'm not going to say anymore, but bear in mind that nobody here want to disrecpect anybody. You guys need to calm the hell down and think twice before you conclude things. There is nobody on earth who always live their life full of bad intentions. We all want the best for us, for the game. After all, dont forget that it's just a game. And dont forget that ALL of us wants to make it better.


EDIT : Five thumbs up for the post before mine. (Y) (Y) (Y) (Y) (Y)

Point is that only chinese can create patches for 2k, and because this Chinese don't want to give tools.
But most people who want tools isn't opponent to them, because first i want to create Euroleague patch, not courts or other what we already have in the game... Mutch people more love Euroleague than NBA, and we only want to play Euroleague in Nba 2k game.

You might want to edit that post. At least be specific.


Those Chinese "who keep the tools for themselves and try to make money off it" bastards.. :evil:

Again, making software concerning NBA 2k9 and proffiting off it is ILLEGAL. So no, it's not just a matter of principles, it's a matter of legal issues as well. If you support this, you might as well be supporting piracy. Lawyered.

I wasn't referring to you anyway, (see updated insult above). Seems to me like you were just waiting for a reason not to release those tools. And why the hell are they (bastards, not YOU) making this a competition? What's in it for them, internet credit? Bullshit. Leave the race issues for those retarded people arguing at youtube and let's be peaceful in this forum. And as mentioned by Modifly, those NON-CHINESE created tools like fsh and ebodit were released without asking for anything in return. And I thought you had an agreement with Pdub, you're gonna back out of it just because of a comment I said? I don't respect people who say one thing and do the other.

There was no agreement, only conversations. For a while now I have been helping someone else try to finish the tool they are working on and I believe when it is finished it will be released for free.

Also, to clarify any rumors, a 3D tool is NOT being developed. However, if a tool comes out that can edit arenas and overlays(as in uncompress them), then I will start looking through the files to find the data that needs to be edited for customization, similar to the headshape modding tutorial. That way custom courts could be made, and custom overlays. You know me, playa!

Thank you for your support.

nba-2k.com needs some great patch makers and they will get the tools first.

time to let this thread die, go discuss mythical iff tools in my stickied rant thread.
