ABL 1976 - Fictional League Mod

As some of you know, there is a mystery mod project going on behind the scenes. It's not so much that its a mystery at this point, but I genuinely do not know what we are calling it yet. For many months, Myself and some others have been working on a fictional mod that takes place in the 1970's.


ABL1.png


We are going for real cyberfaces, along with unique uniforms, courts, logos, everything. If you like All Pro Football, or Blitz: The League, think of this like the basketball version of that.

200+ players [NO GENERIC FACES]

-I paid close attention to tendencies, animations, and ratings to make the players play realistic to how they would for the era. I didn't just lower ratings, I tried to make each player unique and play with their own styles, strengths & weaknesses.

-Sliders and Coach profiles that will go with the spirit of the mod

-No trace of anything NBA. No NBA jerseys, team names, coaches, players, courts, etc. All record books and stats have been erased. This is basketball, not NBA.

-Custom Soundtrack


LEAGUE RULES

-8 East Coast Teams, 8 West Coast Teams

-58 games

-More to come


PLAYER SUBMISSIONS CLOSED FOR NOW

Number: 77
Position: SF/PF
Personality: Unpredictable
Age: 22
Hometown: Memphis
Height & Weight: 6'6" 220
Player Type: 3pt
Strengths and Weaknesses: great at (85-95): 3s, offensive rebounding, hustle, passing, free throws, and vert. / decent at (80-84): dunks, blocks, post fadeaway, steals, and layups / weak at (70): consistency, shoot in traffic, on-ball d, / weakest at (<70): ball handling, off-hand dribbling, post hook, and low post d
-everything else should be mediocre (71-79)
Sig Skill (1 ONLY): Flashy Passer

are we also going to get to draft the teams?

edit: feel free to lower those rating estimates if the overall is too high, but i'd like to try to keep the "great at" ones above 85 and the decent ones atleast above 78. anything else you can lower to get a more reasonable overall if it turns out ive overclocked mine

i just realized you said there will be no actual players in this. you sure you dont want somewhere around 30 actual players sprinkled in for intrigue? could make it alot more interesting and help flesh out the individual playing style of the teams with 1-2 actual stars per team and the rest fictional no-bodies.

The teams will come pre-assembled, but obviously you can use any of the 2K features to Fantasy Draft the rosters, or rearrange them how you want. You can "Draft" your player to one of the teams.

It's fictional mod, not a "fantasy" mod, and so it takes place in a specific time period. The league will have stars, average players, and scrubs. There may be several real life NBA/ABA players from the time period, but 95% of it will be fictional. It's not going to be just randomized teams of 50 rated players with generic faces dont worry.

Also Luke can you attach me a CF to go with your player?

I don't have the program for cyberfaces anymore and i gotta wait til i move in a couple days to redownload. My wifi is off til we move.

Edit: in reference to the fantasy vs fiction i like the idea of most of the players being fictional. I just wanted some of the big names that we already know mixed in there too. So we can have like our own player playing alongside one or two names we know and 10 or so we dont. Add a bit a familiarity to each of the teams. Also thought it might be cool if the people who put themselves in the roster were each a team captain and got to pick from the player pool for the initial roster to be released to everyone to build an identity for each team. But i understand if that'd be very time consuming and inconvienent.
Last thing, if you don't include Coffee Black in this roster i will be sorely disappointed in you. Not anyone else from that movie, just him.
