2K15 Explorer [WIP] [v0.285 Released]

Awesome stuff, Greg! Really appreciate all the hard work.

When you get a moment, would you still be able to add it to the Downloads database in the Tools section? Feel free to use the external link option if you'd prefer, and to put the donation link in the description.

Omg, i am stupid... I forgot to add it the previous time -.- I'll do that right now

Am I the only one whose 7Zip says (after trying to copy all the files) "Invalid compression"?

Are you sure you got a latest version? Also, try re exporting the files. 7zip is the only tool that won't complain by decompressing the files. If the issue persists, let me know of the iff and the file name, and i'll check this.

Well I didn't import anything like that. I just tried changing the hihead_xxxx.mathnodes inside the metadata.json

Read the readme file carefully the .mathnodes file is used like an indicator in order to locate the correct metadata.json file for the 1st LOD model. Nothing more (for now at least).

I followed the instructions, changing the lastline of the file with the ones you gave us. I still get an error

Post the error please

Yeah I got it to work. I kept trying and trying, so I redownloaded it and found my firewall was blocking it from doing anything. Sorry about that, amazing tool

Post the error please

here it is, thanks

No problem at all, appreciate it! I'll get a bulletin up on the main page shortly.

W W thanks greg

Still got it. I was just trying to export the tool's files itself from the .Rar. "These files have an unsupported compression method." Anybody else have any suggestions?

Hmmm it seems that there is an error with your metadata.json file. It's still malformed even after you applied the fix. I say that again, the only thing you need to do is to simply delete one opening "{" and one closing "}" brackets. So export this again, and try to do this again.

If you don't want to export, you can also simply select all the text from the text editor and copy it to a new text file

First of all its a zip XD. And its still very weird :S Try exporting the zip again and try again, if you haven't done that already. Also tell me the archive and the file name to check it myself.

Also, 7-Zip works way more than WinRar.

It's a "7zip" file for me. But I tried reexporting it, and downloading again. So I suppose I'm out of luck. Thanks anyway guys.

here you go, it will solve your problem :/

I love Vince rn. Thank you!
Question: If I was exporting shoes, would I haave to export every piece (ie, lining_occlusion#xyxyxyxyxyxy) and blend them together on a shoe model and UV map?

Yeah. It should work that way.

Yeah. It should work that way.

Is there any way to tell what shoe I'm exporting aside from the sight test?

Unfortunately no. Only thing would be to make an edit to it, import the edit, and then check in-game if the proper shoe was edited, and that way if it's the wrong shoe, you didn't waste your time editing the wrong one.

Got it. Thanks TB.
Since you seem to have shoe knowledge, is there any way to make the outsole and the logos stay white only while the rest of the shoe is RGB?

Has anybody found the updated floor textures?

is anyone else not getting any preview textures in the tool (bottom right panel)?

I spent 5 hours to fix metadata.json file, and have nothing!!! Im really tired. I cant fix that sh,t.... maybe somebody can help me?

Greg, your tutorial a bit empty about how I can save json file? in nba explorer I cant save json file, and cant open by click(like you said in readme), I should press text window, that information not in readme. I can fix json file, but cant save. I export json file with hihead_(random number)acc.mathnodes, delete "{" and "}" but it still not works, maybe I choose wrong head model? or any of 5 LODS model, should work with metadata.json? thanks

Tutorial coming either tomorrow or the next day.

Tutorial coming either tomorrow or the next day.

thats awesome. Maybe also video tutorial? It will be prefect.
and by the way, here is my error:

I use blender 2.7.4

ok, i fix my problem.
I install Blender 2.72b, and copy nba2ktool to directory:
C:\Users\"Your User"\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.72\scripts\addons
Now models works:)

but I have other question: how I can import face with original color (original dds from archive have a problems like with autotone) ?
and in which archive I can found eyes textures and lashes??
thanks

i see we are able to import players chest and leg textures now without crash but skintones arent changing. does anybody know how to properly edit players skin color?

Impossible for now. That's in the shader files.
