pena1 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Hello everybody, hopefully with help from the rest of the great modders here, this can answer many of the questions about modding and updating MLB 2k11. As of now I have list below and could write a few tutorials if there is an interest. If anyone would like to add to this, please let me know! Tools to get started: MLB 2k MOD tool - Opens most IFF files for updating textures, can't thank Ariel and the rest of his crew @ modding way enough for this. You can export / import player head models with this as well. Make sure you have Java installed! (Thanks Micropterus58) Cyber Face Converter - Another player head model export / import tool [only works on 32 bit systems] To open DDS textures you will need a plugin: Photoshop, GIMP are the most common. Paint.net will work as well Roster Editors: Ty Wiggins Roster Editor - Ty's Editor has more features that I can list here, check out this thread for all the info. The ability to finally edit the team colors is huge for any uniform modder. REDeditor II - Not much is available now, but Vlad has done some great work with the NBA 2k series. IFF Files: dds slot number in MODtool [#:# means it is a subfile] - description english.iff: 11 - keyboard buttons 30 - xbox buttons 54 - generic controller buttons englishbootup.iff: game logos during load Global.iff: Batting gloves - 198, 471, 618 Bats: Logo - 457:1 Wood grain - 457:0 Pinetar - 457:2-3 Colors - 48, 713, 269, 32, 398, 48, 290, 81, 709, 272, 46, 384 Catchers Gear: Chest protector - 61, 276, 697 Shin A - 86, 268, 689 Shin B - 80, 260, 685 Cleats 1- 263, 407, 682 Cleats 2 - 271, 402, 688 Gloves: Closed Glove - 92, 512, 585 Open Glove - 34, 324, 651 1st Base - 84, 265, 408 Catchers Glove - 242, 523, 573 Reg Baseball - 226, 602 WS basbeall - 127, 224 Dirt Marks - 367 Eyes: gray - 27 blue - 44 green - 83 hazel - 110 amber - 503 brown - 444 Sweat - 64 Umpires: Hat - 233 Shirt majors - 655 Shirt minors - 363 overlay static preload.iff 52- TV logos [batters box located here as well] Player heads_XXXX.iff: 0 - skin texture 3 - head model *player head files can be assigned with tywiggins roster editor Portrait.iff: List of 1834 portraits, as of now I don't think there is as corresponding list...

acr731 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Stupid newbie question, but how do you use the MLB 2k MOD tool? I've downloaded it but there isn't an *.exe file to be found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micropterus58 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 The MLB/NBA Mod tool uses Java. You need to have Java installed first then click on the JAR file just like it was an EXE. You can even make a shortcut from the JAR file. http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
