[Tool] Court Logos Normalizer (for non-US residents)

post some before and after screenshot. thanks.

I don't understand. The title of the post is "Logos Normalizer Court (for non-US residents)" but it works only for U.S. residents. Why rest of the world isn't allowed to small logos at the 3-point line? Can anyone solve this problem

PS: What software replaces NBA 2K9 Iff Editor? Because it doesn't work on Win7.

after the first run with this normalizer u dont need to use it again - exe file become modified to US version and u dont need to use normilizer again

I hate small logos

no need for that patch just change ur regional settings to USA on control panel

Dont working for the Steam-Version .

Any screenshots of the before and after??

maybe Kaaba when u downloaded ur game on steam u should put steam downloading location to somewhere in USA,just saying..

Tried that, no success. I imagine, Steam checked my IP-Adress and knows what version i should get, damn.

Hi all

Anyone have an issue for the EU DVD version please?
I've tested the Vlad'sNormalizer, also making changes in control panel, but not working...
Thanks for your help.

You can try deleting files from your Save folder, then try to run the game via Normalizer again.
Actually, rosters, associations, draft classes, my players, etc. don't affect anything. It's the settings file or some other small (< 1 Mb) file, which can cause the tool not to work properly.
So, just try to cut everything out of your Saves folder and see, what will happen on the next launch of the game...

About the Control Panel: the tool does exactly the same, but reverts the changes back on exit, so the changes are temporary, and your overall system won't be affected. You can use either of 2 ways, but i'd recommend the Normalizer, as changing your locale settings in Control Panel may lead to unwanted presentation of programs.

hey Vlad looking forward to the new Reditor I got money in the bank lol

Thanks Vl@d for your answer!
Your normalizer work great if the language of the game is english.
If i use the normalizer and the game start with french language (i'm french ), i not have logos...
Thanks for your work!

Aha. Cool! Thanks for clearing the situation up!

First post updated.

Thanks Vl@d!!

Now it works for me.
You have tu set the game language to english. But you still can have the game in the language you want.

That's what you have to do:

1 - Set the game language to english.
2 - Close the game.
3 - Go to your NBA 2K12 folder.
4 - Find the next files:

english.iff
englishbootup.iff

5 - Find the files from your language (I'm spanish, so spanish for me):

spanish.iff
spanishbootup.iff

The same for french, german, etc.

6 - Now rename your local language files to english.iff and englishbootup.iff and english language files to your local language. Example:

english.iff -> spanish.iff
englishbootup.iff -> spanishbootup.iff

spanish.iff -> english.iff
spanishbootup.iff -> englishbootup.iff

7 - Start the game.
8 - Enjoy with small logos

Not working with Steam!

I just signed up to say I had the exact same issue. All the courts were the old version and looked ugly. I checked this board and on the last thread somebody suggested changing the language settings of my computer to US, and it worked. I didn't need to download this other thing.

I'm on Windows 7, this is what I did:

1. Go to Control Panel
2. Click on 'Region and Language'
3. In the Formats tab, go to the drop down menu at the top that says 'Formats'. Select 'English (United States)
4. Then go to the top and select the 'Location' tab. Change Location to United States.
5. Finally, go to the tab at the top that says 'Administrative'. At the bottom you will see, "Current language for non-unicode programs" and below it your language. Click the Change System Locale button and change it to 'English (United States).
6. It will prompt you to restart, go ahead and do that.
7. After restart, start game and enjoy normal court logos.

You dont need to change all and restart just change format to english(us) is enough.

Awesome! It worked, I live in Canada and was wondering why the Phoenix Suns court was weird. I did what you said and found that the Format was in English (Canada) so switched it to English (United States) and it worked perfectly!

Did the same thing and got small logos for the Spurs.

This works for me I get the small logos and the new mid court logos (raptors, hornets) when I use this. Thanks a lot Vl@d Zola Jr

This works for me too!

I bought the game from play.com so I have EU version and the patch not work for me. I tested it.

this way in combination with the normalizer is working fine...for me

I did everything you said. I deleted entire save folder and the game asked me for the key code again. In the key code of the game, however, there are the EU letters, so the game understand that the game is from europe (I think so). Nevertheless, I tried anything (exept for finding usa exe file) and not working with your patch. At least someone upload the correct center logos of the teams for us.
