NickZ's Indiana Pacers 2005-06 (Work in Progress)

[NickZ]

Hey, this is my first post at the NLSC. Cool we got a lot of guys still playing 2000, and I'm thinking to do some addons for this game...sure it looks old, but it's a CLASSIC game, IMO, and it's still very cool to play....brings back a lot of memories every time I play it.

Here's a little about me: I used to go under the name "303" back in the day when I used to make jersey addons for NHL 2002. I since took a break from that, adapting my Photoshop skills along the way, and now I'll see if I can do some addons for the NBA Live 2K, since I'm starting to get back into it.

OK, well, here's my first contribution. It's the new Indiana Pacers uni's. I think I did pretty good, HOWEVER, I need some advice. The jersey shape I picked has a TON of black space on it. Is something wrong with my transparency of the jersey or something of the like? This seems like a simple mistake and I think that, with your help, I can get past it. Here's a pic:



Questions? Comments? Post 'em.

Excellent news, I'm really glad to see a new patcher for Live 2000! And I have to admit that your jersey looks EXCELLENT! I'd be proud to host it on Alexsite.

Having said that, about your transparency issue, I'm not a specialist about jerseys Did you try to import it directly from Photoshop to EAGraph, with the transparency already set in your PSD file?

Thanks, guys, for your comments. Sorry I haven't posted lately, I'm a busy dude...but I did manage to get the numbers done. They are suffering from the same problem as the jersey, and I am trying to experiment with other means of transparency to see what's going on. I've seen others do jerseys with modern shapes with the transparency not an issue, so I guess maybe I'm doing something wrong somewhere. I'll try to retrace my steps in the next few days and see what I can do.

Here's what a week of work got me:



Looking worse by the minute even though I tried a lot of things all week in Photoshop to ease the transparency issue with the jerseys and numbers. Live 2K Jerseymakers, please respond and help me out a bit!
