Nofakenames Roster Wish List


BSU-FAN

Recommended Posts

I am currently working on another "NoFakeNames" roster update for 2k12 and am asking for any suggestions or feedback from the community in this thread. I have already started work on this and have completed all current transactions and trades(including extensions) and am now working on adding in any of the missing players from the 40 man rosters. Once i have completed with the 40 man rosters...I will be adding in the top prospects for each team as well. If anyone has any batting stances, cyberfaces, gear, and/or rating suggestions...I'm asking that you post them here. I will look into the suggestion and if valid I will add it into my release. I'm hoping to have a completed roster update with accurate lineups (with AAA included) as close to opening day as possible. I'm very thankful for any help on this enormous undertaking. Cheers! :drinks:

Couldn't get his cyberface to load, but the one I'd like to see is Freddy Galvis. Shame 2K missed out on giving many prospects the decency of a cyberface.

Awesome job last year with the NFN Rosters! Used them exclusively and they were very solid. Particularly liked whichever methods you used to devise the player ratings. In my opinion, they more accurately reflected each players' actual strongpoints than the official rosters.

I won't even bother with My Player mode until the real prospects are actually in game, and I'm sure your NFN will handle that as well as it did last year.

Thanks!

Padres OF Maybin just got an extension. Here are the details.

Maybin will earn $500K in 2012 with the money escalating each year.

The 24-year-old will earn $3MM, $5MM, $7MM, $8MM, and $9MM in years to follow. The final year of the deal, 2017, comes with a $1MM buyout.

I'll probably buy this game tomorrow, and begin working on stances. If you'd like, I can post my list from last year - a lot of it will probably have to be changed (I already know of a couple of guys who changed stances some), but it may be a good starting point.

Okay, so I went through and compared 2k11's stances and 2k12's, and made note of which ones changed. I went into the list I kept last year and changed those stances that have changed. I then moved everyone to their list. So here is the complete list of stances I came up with last season. I will be going through each team to take not of players who have changed their stances from last year, but that will be hard to do well until there is more video to see.

There are quite a few minor leaguers in there that probably won't be on your roster for a bit. Just a heads up. And these are just batting stances, so if you see a pitcher, that's his batting stance, not his windup, obviously. I'm terrible at assigning windups.

Thanks JC121081 and DonkeyJote! I have been plugging away and have an enormous amount done so far with these rosters and they are turning out very well. :good: I have been able to replace nearly all of the "fake name" players through out FA and the minors with the correct players name. There are a lot(150+) this year. So I will have a very good start when I began with prospects and AAA. I have also been using Ty's editor from last year and replacing all of the generic 2K cyberfaces with ones that much closer match the real players face; much like I did last year with the help of the generic cyberface thread on here. I'm also about half way through the batting stances update as well. I'm hoping by opening day to have an amazingly accurate roster ready to roll out complete with AAA as well. I'm looking for a FEW people to beta test this roster out as I get closer to being finished...so if you are interested and feel you can offer educated analysis of these please message me. As far as ratings go I will be matching very closely to what 2k uses for their official release close to or on opening day. I will also be using real life performance and the 2012 Baseball Prospectus to aid in any further rating adjustments I see necessary. I'm as excited as anyone to use these and plan on getting it right the first time so there will be far less updates through out the season and much more playing! :clapping:

Nice to see some names completely missing from the current roster. On the Mets alone, I have lost count of the missing players. Good job. I guess I should wait longer to start my franchise, but we're half way through March. :fool:

I tried sending you a message, BSU, but your inbox seems to be full. I'd be happy to help "test" your rosters. If nothing else, it'd be a good opportunity to get a head start on updating stances for guys.

Just updating everyone on the rosters and they are coming along very nicely. I have put in close to 100 hours of editing at this point; and would say I have atleast that left to go. :lazy: I'm getting more and more excited through each phase though so my motivation is growing :crazy: I now have 100% accurate 40 man rosters with every player on the correct teams and up to date contracts on all players who have been given extensions or have been re-signed. I have nearly all AAA teams filled as well but will fine tune that more come closer to opening day when teams finish assigning more players to minor league squads. I have also replaced ALL "fake name" players (over 200) with the correct player names and assigned them to the correct team or released them to FA. This makes nearly all the free agents real players. I have also gone through and taken any of the fake players that were rated above 60 on ALL teams and lowered them to 59 or below. This makes it easier to know exactly who is a real player and who is fake one. I have also nearly finished updating hundreds of batting stances thanks to help from DonkeyJotes list. I haven't used all of them from last year since some players now have their own added in but this makes a big difference when playing a game. As of now I am currently working on BA's top 100 prospect list and am creating any missing prospects and adding them to their respective team. From there I will start fine tuning ratings, updating gear for players, and replace tons of generic cyberfaces that have yet to be modded. These rosters are also meant to be used with the cyberfaces modded and released on MVPmods.com. If you don't download them you will see a generic cyberface in place of the one that would be there. This will save you from having to change the cyber-face ID# yourself. I am still on pace to release these as soon as opening day batting line-ups and rotations have been set. I will also have a donation button this year on my download window when this roster is released. This is mostly due to peers suggesting I should do so since I have so many hours invested into this project. I am definitely not one who thinks charging for mods is the way to go but if you do appreciate my hard work and want to donate... I will be more then happy to accept since I am a poor college student and have an outdated laptop for editing :help: I hope you guys are as excited as I am to start your franchises and My Player modes. Well I'm back at it since I have today and tomorrow off I should be getting quite a bit more done. 8P

Just one thing on players now having their own stance, most of those are inaccurate. They haven't added any new stances, so a lot of the players that now have their own "signature" stance is just a recycled version of somebody else's that isn't in the game anymore.

Thanks again for the info DonkeyJote. I finished all of the batting stances yesterday and only ran into one that I couldn't find. It appears Willy Taveras' batting stance has been changed to another name so I couldn't fix Brendan Harris' stance yet. All of the others were still in the game by the same name. I will be working on gear and rating adjustments through the next few days; then it will just be waiting for 25 man rosters and batting line-ups/rotations to be released. These rosters are testing very good with no glitches found yet. I took my time and did 99% of the editing in game so there should be NO skin tone issues with any of the players. Many of the very dark skinned players will have to wait until an editor is released that fixes the skin tone issue in order to have an updated cyber face. There are also a few players where I created a player so I could change their skin tone in game and still change the cyber face of the player. It a temporary fix for now that definitely helps on a few of the more popular players or prospects.

Blanton doesn't anymore. That's one that will be updated :good: It's not so much that 2k does a bad job of stances, but that they don't update them. Pierre's stance was accurate 3 years ago or so. But he's opened his stance up significantly since then. I noticed today that Miguel Cabrera's stance probably isn't accurate anymore. That's part of the dilemma when doing stances - the more outdated stances get, the question becomes do you change a guy like Cabrera's "signature style" since it actually incorporates more than just the stance.

I had a question for ya, BSU. Are you (at some point down the road, obviously) planning on incorporating Pena's accessories into the roster? By that I mean putting Nike shoes/gloves on guys that wear Nike, etc? Because if so, I'll start keeping track of who wheres what brand to help you out with that.

when will it be out

I am aiming for this to be released by Sunday. This roster update is massive! I have spent close to 200 hours researching and editing for this roster. :lazy: I still have at about 2 full days of editing ahead of me so I would guess Sunday evening you will see a release barring any major set backs.
