Bugs & Glitches

This thread is for general bugs that appear in the game that have nothing to do with mods installed.

Since your issue has to do with a mod, post it in the patching help and requests forum.

Cannot edit Adidas Crazy Shadow in My shoes
its all grey





but in the roster it shows up correctly.




from all the shoes in 2k13 this is the only one i have in real life but it has to be f***ed up

i have the same problem can we have answers for this please

Also have this problem. I'm not sure if I had this problem initially cause I've never really scrolled through the shoes until now.

Guys any solution with my problem? If i reinstall the game there wont be problem with the code right?

Yes, there probably will be an issue, but you can contact 2K Support regarding your 2K account and key if it comes to that.

No time for that. Maybe will do it next week. 2K are slow as **** and prolly will take them month...

it would have taken you less time to request a new key than it did for you to make that post.

enjoy waiting the week for no reason

Ive been waitin if somebody had that problem. I prolly wont unistall it - dunno. Its shit when 2 or more players play in 1 team on blacktop. Then nobody knows who he controls >_<

many people have had that problem, posting in this thread in the help section as well. contacting 2K support is the solution

Another bug I encountered, cant equip my Nike ID shoes. Everytime I put them on a player it shows up as LeBron VII.

Also found out that the fix is included with the official patch which we PC guys obviously doesn't have.

Cool fixed my problem ! Thanks a lot for the help

Bug description: MyCareer Dunk

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): PC

When i dunk two handed rim hang i think and it shoots, it is considered as out of bounds.. im getting annoyed with this one.. -.-

Bug description: Teammate Grade Bar disappears, but the gold bar is still there?

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): I'm not sure, but I saw this happen on my PC

Game Mode: My Career

Specific steps to reproduce the bug; if not applicable, what causes it to happen: It disappears while you are playing My Career Mode

Here are some videos that show the glitch:

i have the same bug with you

Everyone's experienced that one at some point. It's a well known bug.

Bug description: Weird contracts are signed

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): PC, but I don't know if it happen on other platforms or not

Game Mode: Association

Specific steps to reproduce the bug; if not applicable, what causes it to happen: After the offseason, when I check the players' contracts from other teams, there are some players with a contract of $-1844670044... really long number, more than 10 digits ??? Then I check those players' team cap room: -2.13B --> What?
Thanks a lot if someone can fix it

Bug description: They counted my great dunk as a block

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): PC

Game Mode: Play now

Specific steps to reproduce the bug: Dunk in a Fastbreak? IDK. I was playing and before realize how great was the dunk, I heard 'And the rejection!'.

Bug description: Wrong team gets the home court advantage in the NBA Finals

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): PC

Game Mode: Association

Specific steps to reproduce the bug; if not applicable, what causes it to happen: Earlier series are fine but when we reached to finals if i had a better regular season seed they get the home court advantage; if they had a better one i get it.

That glitch has been popping up in the game for years now (2K10) so I don't expect 2K to do something about it now.

Bug Description: CPU won't inbound the ball and there's no 5 sec violation for them regardless of how long they stand there..

Platform : PC

Game Mode: Exhibition

That happens to me a lot (PS3). And when I pause the game, it freezes.

Also happens to other game modes. Workarounds if it doesn't freeze when you pause the game...

Easiest way: save game and exit then just reload the save.

Call a timeout.

If you can't call a timeout - pause the game, controller/team select screen, make player 2 the other team, call a timeout with player 2.

If you can't call a timeout in MC/CaL then only option is to save and exit then reload.

If the game clock is running you can let the quarter run out and the next quarter will resume normally.

If it's in the 4th quarter with game clock running and before the final 2 minutes, you can let the time run out and the cpu (your team or the opponent) will usually call for a timeout anyway in the 2 minute mark.
I suggest you let the time run out if you're leading the game.

I know late reply but the more we know...

Bug description: Teammate has no last name.

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): PC

Game Mode: My Career

Specific steps to reproduce the bug; Not sure, but I am using the MyCareer save file of the types found here viewtopic.php?f=149&t=88367
Wesley Matthews has no last name. He has no last name anywhere to be found in the entire mode. Even during gameplay he has no name on the back of his jersey.

I believe it's more of an error with the patch than with the base game. Ask the dude you downloaded the file from on how to fix it.

Bug description: mycareer games completed and stats

Platform (PC/X360/PS3): PC

Game Mode: MyCareer

Specific steps to reproduce the bug; if not applicable, what causes it to happen:
idk i played 5 games still 0 games completed and my stats are not in the ranks not even in my player card.

One post about that is enough.

As I mentioned in the other thread, that's an issue that arises when you externally modify a MyCAREER save. This thread is for documenting bugs that occur in the vanilla game, with no mods or external editing of saved files.

[b]Bug description: PA ANNOUNCER CALL EVERYONE ABC

[b]Platform (PC):

[b]Game Mode: MY CAREER

[b]Specific steps to reproduce the bug; if not applicable, what causes it to happen: FIRST GAME AFTER DRAFT

I LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR A SOLUTION WITH NO SUCCESS PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Have you used a trainer, roster patch or modified the game in any other way?

I did a video and i will upload it soon just a describsion for now.


That happend so far 4-5 times in about 300 games. I dunk the ball but for some reason the basket doen't count and the game continues as if i missed the basket. Happend again some minutes ago, i managed to see the replay and it's a 100% made dunk.

roster editor has nothing to do with name editing, names dont even come from the roster, they are assumed through CFID and a txt file.

something got screwy with name editing, either use RED MC to edit names, or if you hex edit don't change lengths

also, not what this thread is intended for, next time please make a thread in the patching help forum
