It works. Delete manifest g out of your main NBA 2K19 directory.

manifest g is created the first time you use NBA 2K explorer, its like a backup for the regular manifest. When an update for the game goes through (A patch), 2K explorer won't work because it's trying to pull from manifest G when it loads, and the manifest G that's in the folder is before the patch went through.

When you delete manifest G, and run 2K explorer again, it gives the tool a fresh start to pull from the updated manifest within the folder, and once again creates a manifest g you can work off of.

You can place the 2K Explorer in whatever folder is convenient for you. It just needs to point to the appropriate folder where NBA 2K19 is installed in order to load the files.

ctrl f and search through manifest to find what archives you want to open in 2k explorer.

Do you have the steam version? I believe TheGoods uploaded a manifest somewhere in the forum.

Hello there. I am new member here in this forum. I encountered the same problem like you, using the 2k explorer in 2k19, setting the preferences and after loading them the archive file shows up in the tab but with no content. I asked one modder as well for help with regards to this and what he said and what I did as well is 1. did you update your 2k19 with a patch or something like 1.03/1.04 update? 2. if so then I hope you have created a backup files for it, the very first files right after you install it and before updating it because what I did was revert back my backup files and tried it again and 2k explorer works already. In short I think it doesn't work/read our archives when we updated it already. Thank you, hope it helps.

Which version of the game are you using? Steam?
