!!! Jersey creation !!!

So I am attempting to make some jerseys and take a shot at making some jersey mods for everyone, and I'm having some trouble. I am currently using a video by Rob Davis to learn ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oy863dYXL6M how to do so. What my problem currently is is that I cannot seem to make the jersey show up on screen. I have made the normal, regional, and color files

(normal shorts & jersey)



(regional shorts & jersey)



(jersey & shorts color)



I then grabbed a NY Knicks jersey file that wasn't being used as a current slot, and opened it up.




Then I took all of my 6 files I made for regional/color/normal and renamed them to what was in the '53 home.iff
Went to go load my game to see if it worked. It did not. This was my result. (see video)



PLEASE HELP!!!

You have to save them as dds dxt and edit the TXTR files with notepad. You have to delete some values there and to keep there these ones:
"jersey_color": {
"Min": [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0065120915, 1.0 ],
"Max": [ 0.904661238, 0.887923181, 0.887923181, 1.0 ],
"Mask": 16777215,
"Binary": "jersey_color.xxxxxxxx.dds"
}

When making your jerseys ... u dont need to add any logos to the Normal or Region file. You can leave them as is and export them and put them in the .iff

Make sure you are saving all the files (Normal, Region, Jersey, shorts) as a dds (no alpha) with these settings (I use nvidia dds plugin)

I'm not following you 100% here sorry. Ok so I have definitely saved the files as .dds although Photoshop did not have the option for it (see pic), but I saved them as .dds regardless

(no option for .dds or .dxt)


(all files saved as .dds)


As for the .TXTR files I have no idea as to which values to delete or change. How does one determine which values are useless?
What I attempted to do was simply copy & paste what you had into the jersey color TXTR. you prob guess that didn't work either.... I'm a dummy.

Mr. Rob Davis himself I will be sure to grab that plugin. Is that plugin the reason I'm not seeing a .dds option as a save type? (see pic)

yes there are 2 plugins I use to save dds files just so I don't run into any issues

DDS with no alpha .... using Nvidia

https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-tex ... -photoshop



DDS with alpha using intel texture works

omg with the tasty links! Thank You!

RobDavis, Thank you for your help man!




Now I can see what I'm looking at and adjust logo sizes and such!

I'm gonna watch the rest of your vid now and learn fonts & numbers. Then it's on to courts! I can't wait to share my stuff! I just hope it's not too

Is there by chance though a file with all of the jerseys in the game that I can use? I have a huge jerseys megapack with a lot of them but not all maybe like 40%. It'd be nice to have every jersey to work off of.

hey rob! i was watching your tutorial on jersey making. then i encountered the same issue with you. the invisible number and fonts. the thing is. i followed every step of the video where you where successful in changing the font font and number color. but mine still invisible. any please?

Complete noob on jersey creation & have been stuck on this for a couple hours:

Just taking the jersey color file from the default 2k exported .iff file and resaving it (No changes at all, just resaving the file under the presets that were specified above)

I end up with this in the jersey preview screen.


Would appreciate any feedback/tips. Thanks in advance

Use this 2 mate, others are default
Format: BC3 - Interpolated
Effect: 2D

RedBlueBlur,

Thanks! Gonna try that when I get some time off work.

I know this is not related to nba2k20 but I have encountered a problem when moding for jersey in 2k17. What values do I need to retain on .txtr files? On default there are only mips, format and binary. How to know the mjn and max?

just keep the color file like this

"jersey_color": {
"Binary": "jersey_color.whatevednumber.dds"
}

and normal like this

"jersey_normal": {
"TexelUsage": "NORMAL",
"Binary": "jersey_normal.whatevednumber.dds"
}
