How can i make my own logo in the center of the court?

[mynameisgerd]

I've been dying to know how to create my own court, i already know how to make jerseys, make cyberfaces, make EVERY little thing that bigGUI, FSHx, DB Commander, EBOdit can do. So back to the question. Whenever i try to edit the logo.. i just can't!
So please help me, if you can, please tell me in your most DETAILED explanation or if there's any tutorial on how to edit courts even if it is posted in olderr NBA live, PLEASE!

I promise that if I learn the little things about court patching, i'll deliver the most quality and deadly realistic courts you'll ever see. I SWEAR!!

use bigGUI, open the stadia folder, find the court you want to edit,

export the xxxxcrt.fsh and the xxxxcrt_vram.fsh to your sgsm folder

edit with fshx and enjoy.

Wow!! Thank you sir Jao, i've been editting my courts now like crazy! thank you, but there's one thing i'd like to ask..



how can i edit that logo without disturbing my center logo? I've noticed that some patches editted the "tlga" in the xxxcrt.fsh that fixed both the center logo and the logo encircled there, but when i tried, it didn't work!

[JaoSming]

well, if you want to remove that you can load the clevcrt.ebo and just move it off the court and under the crowd.

Well, nevermind that, i already figured out how, so...



Is there any way to change the color of the encirled part and to change the color of the lines itself?
And how do I remove reflections on the court? I mean, it shines like glass! how do i fix that?

[JaoSming]

select those shaded areas in eboedit and then underneath the parts list click the big grey box, a color thing will pop up, choose a color there.

for lines, they are in the clevcrt.fsh, but fshx doesnt like editing them, you can try to do the above method of coloring them, but that doesnt really work well.

download fshline if you really want to edit those lines, but it is very different to use

[mynameisgerd]

Wow! every little thing you said was working indeed! I'm really getting a hang of this, maybe this will sum it all up, so i'm just wondering how to fix those "reflections" on the court itself? It's very unrealistic and it destroys the details.

[JaoSming]

the stadium's reflections are controlled by the xxxstd_lowref.ebo, you gotta use ebodit to edit it though

Another question, so in this picture..



how can i add a logo in there? in other courts like the Cavs, i can change the logo where the "Quicken Loans Arena" is placed, but in this case, i can't because there's nothing to change! I know it's the "tlgd" part in "xxxxcrt_vram.fsh" that needs to be edited, or is it? anyway, can you teach me how to do it?

[JaoSming]

can't add anything to courts, only remove or modify

check the ebo file and see if there is just a blank texture being used or not.

meaning, check the ebo file, and if it looks like there should be a logo there, see if there is a blank, empty texture in the vram fsh file

[mynameisgerd]

Gosh, it's not as easy as i thought it would be. Another question sir Jao.. (sorry for so many questions, i really want to create courts for me to share)



I think I already asked this but, how do i change the Center logo and the logo right there on the bottom right? Because what happens to me is when i import the Center logo which is always successful, it's also the logo on the bottom right, but I saw a couple of patches that they imported 2 logos at the same time, the center logo being on the top of the other logo, but when i tried doing that, it results to 2 logos at the center, and at the bottom right! Is it something to do with the xxxxcrt.ebo?

[JaoSming]

yes and no, it is something that sounds left over from 07, in 08 if there is no texture assigned to an ebo part, then it will copy another part's texture.

to get rid of it just do the ebo thing
