I ran into the same issue. You have to follow these instructions http://forums.nba-live.com/viewtopic.php?p=1510561#p1510561 , and the problem is solved. However, for regular Major League uni's you just use emboss option.

If so, what program are you using?

I wish there were uniform templates. A sort of base we can use to create custom uni's. Especially since I mod minor league uni's that are more difficult since the team name is directly on the jersey.

I just started really getting into modding this game I love. Man, it's a lot of work be the rewards are well worth it; when you see your finished product in action, it's pretty exciting. I been really busy, but I am going to share my hard labor with my fellow gamer. So far I have modded stadium ads, uniforms, & bat logos.

Why is the green screen for the caps larger than the cap dds? Makes is much more difficult to make a green screen for a cap patch.

thanks, i will try it. i want to make a Brooklyn Cyclones away uniform, using the old Brooklyn Dodgers for the jersey name.

This is the Mets alternate away. They are wearing the Gary carter patch over the right breast, and the Mets patch on the shoulder as seen on 6/2 vs St. Louis.

Is this done from scratch with a plain jersey or can you change the colors of an existing pin strip?

Steve, all you do is replace the global.iff with the download. Back up your original. That's it. NOw you can go in the game and assign a certain cleat, or glove to a certain player.

Okay, the uniform file has two font dds 0 & 2. The 2 is the green embos but the 0 has color. How is it that the color can be changed with Ty's editor if the letters already have color on them? Same goes for the numbers.

It took me two days to figure this out my dds program was not exporting the bitmaps. I was trying everything and all i got were the ads bleeding through the old ones.

Wow. I have been playing since MVP 05. Had a no hitter and a perfect game both in MVP 08 and ironically both with Johan Santana. Closest I've come in 2k is 7 2/3 by then my heart was pounding; I was so nervous my hands were shaking. Best game was a 18 k one hitter with RA Dickey.

You need a dds editing software like Gimp, Paint.net, Photo Shop. I use Corel to make my vector graphics from scratch or import a downloaded logo. You then export them as png files or paint.net can export into dds. Takes knowledge of pixals sizes and stuff like that. best thing to do is export the dds file you want to edit and check the size and see how it's arranged.

DXT1 with mipmaps. I am using Gimp, Corel Paint, and Paint.net. Don, the dds installs fine, but when I go into the stadium the banners look like vertical lines from far but when zoom in they look fine. I does that whether I convert it to bitmap or leave it as vector.

I tried that, when i load the stadium i get old ads bleeding through or just fuzzy lines.

Could some one make a tutorial on how we can update the banners in the stadiums. I have tried unsuccessfully several times. Thanks

Has anyone tried to figure out how to change the base coaches names/numbers to reflect the actual team coaches yet? I haven't seen anything on this subject.

I also have SSK bat logos, and X bat logos I will upload these as a DDS equipment pack as soon as I can.

Those are beyond my scope of graphic design. I am just a rookie at the uniforms, hats, & bats. And those are even a pain in the but. I have to use four different programs.

I didn't really like the gray and my fonts for bat model came out slightly larger than I like.

That's alright I made a custom one.

This was made by hand from scratch using Coral Paint.

I have been able to save logos as alpha channels made from scratch. I draw them with CorelDraw, save them as png. Open with Gimp, save and convert with dds converter. Works well. Just haven't been able to make a 3d green screen for them as I don't have photo shop and I haven't figured out Corel Photo yet. I can get some 3d effect by using emboss effect after I convert them to bitmap.

How do you make the green screen for custom made team names like the one I made?

If you guys like it, I will upload it.fsscr105.bmp
