This mod features smaller mid-major colleges that have never appeared in any mods before. This also means I have to create all the floors, jerseys, stadiums, etc. from scratch by myself. This is also my first ever attempt at modding NBA 2K14 whatsoever so I might make some mistakes along the way but even already I have corrected a lot of my early errors. I'm getting better every day with some huge help from JaoSming's amazing tutorials and have JDAGOD help me out with any other little problems I have had.

3 Years after typing this I have come back an experienced modder and absolutely overhauled everything so that it is up to date with the current 2K standards

Well I am a major time college hoops fan and it is no joke literally impossible for me to get an official version of College Hoops 2K8 over here in Ireland. I know that there is 2 other college hoop mods being made this year but I swear to you that my one will be unique to all of them.

My mod will feature the smaller colleges that have never appeared in any mods before. This also means I have to create all the floors, jerseys, stadiums etc. from scratch by myself. This is also my first ever attempt at modding NBA 2K14 whatsoever so I might make some mistakes along the way but even already I have corrected alot of my early errors. Im getting better everyday with some huge help from JaoSming's amazing tutorials and have JDAGOD help me out with any other little problems I have had.

It has been nearly 2 weeks since I started this project and since then I have completed the following.
Stadiums 11 / 30
Jerseys 36 / 60
Floors 16 / 30
Rosters 8 / 30
Crowds 1 / 30
Logos 6 / 30
Bootup 0 / 3

I am hoping to have V1 with 30 completed teams done by Christmas

This wouldn't be possible without JDAGOD inspiring me with his project and being my mentor

This is literally taking up all of my free time outside of school and work so any help,ideas or suggestions is appreciated

Any college requests that you have always wanted to play as just comment below

P.S. After V1 is released I'm just gonna keep adding more colleges until I get absolutely sick to death of modding this game

Keep up the good work bro let me know if you need me to rename the teams or do some courts

Great work

@JDAGOD Thanks so much The courts are actually my favourite part so I'm going to do them myself but im creating a McDonalds All American Game 2017 court for my Rookie Showcase if you want it.

@TGsoGood Thanks dude

Very dope work so far bro, I will most def be following this very closely

- JDAGOD for allowing me to use his NCAA Ball

Actually is my ball, but yes, I'm allowing you to use it in your mod.
BTW remember about bumps, because on some of the jersey you can saw other wordmark under the right one like for example Brooklyn under the Colgate or Celtics under the Lafayette.

That is actually a huge problem I'm having and I don't know how to fix it. Any tutorial link?

JDAGOD, don't worry, it's ok
DaCrispy, check PM.

Look at previous versions of NBA 2K for info on green channels. There were tutorials posted. JaoSming made one for GIMP. Youtube also has videos but their search function turns up thousand of useless results. This file is called by multiple names so searching is difficult. Bump Maps, Normal Maps, Green Channel, Green Alpha, etc. Different graphics programs use different techniques. For Paint Shop Pro rhe Nvidia plugin does not work so I use SSBump Generator. XNormal can also be used.

Really good looking so far, keep up the good work!

Thanks alot Mr.Bass and Mr. Wolf

This looks pretty cool. Awesome to see schools not in the other mods. Any chance for some west coast love? Lol

I have about 8 spaces left for V1 so who do you have in mind?

I see you are putting whole conferences in your mod, but I'd say I'm partial to the Big West Conference which I am very familiar with because of my alma mater

Sorry for no recent updates, I've been busy the last few days with work and basketball but I have completed the following

- Columbia Lions Roster
- Princeton Tigers Roster
- Colgate Raiders Roster
- Dartmouth Big Green Roster

- Boston College floor + arena
- Air Force floor + arena
- FGCU floor + arena

I will try to add the Big West conference but ATM I might only put 4-5 teams in for V1 as I'm planning on adding Jacksonville and some other personal favourites.

Cool man if I have free time i can try to help if you need it
