Wanted to check out some of the new additions to the vintage mod but had a quick question.

I already have your mod downloaded with seasons underway, association etc; are there secific folders I can download to just add the new content? Thanks again for the mod, it's great!

In the last couple of days I have added some new stuff like global, allstar_loading, snapshot_background_adavis and so on.
it's in folder "NBA 2K13 NLSC".

some other new stuff is in folders "courts3", "faces3", "jerseys2", "logos","portraits" and "saves".

Thanks for the reply! I'll poke around and see. I definitely want to keep your mod updated with the latest content.

by the way who is who?

first pic players of the 1950s.
second pic players of the 1960s.

Awesome!! Ohhh that's gonna be tough. I'm actually learning a lot about basketball history with your mod.

Without cheating, off the top of my head in the 50's Cousy, Jumpin Joe Fulks, Bill Russell of course, Mikan...I just watched a youtube video on Joe Fulks and learned that he was shot in a hotel room.

The standouts in my semi-historical 30 team association so far have been Mikan, Risen, Pollard, Fulks and Cousy just entered his rookie year... And Jimmy Darden for my Nuggets (2x assist leader) Having a blast with all the history so thanks for that.

your are right,
between Fulks and Russell is NYs Tricky Dick McGuire.

Risen (Royals) and Pollard (Lakers) are also on the pic.

Sweet! yeah, most I would have to load up the original rosters to know by sight. Plus my base roster doesn't have everyone on their most well known teams. Is Nat Clifton up top? I think Curly Armstrong for Detroit?

Who is the lower right corner? Don Otten always beasts on me in game is he in there?

Max Zaslofsky up top for the Chicago Stags, Had to look his number up to confirm.
