Ultimate Retro Roster NBA 2k20: 2024 Season Update , 2004 + 2007 All-Star Teams

Postby Thunder Shaq on Sun Sep 08, 2019 4:14 am

This is the thread for my Ultimate Retro Roster and beyond.

I want to give a huge shout out to the following people for helping make this project possible. If you think you deserve a shoutout, but missing from this, just send me a PM!


PeacemanNOT- 1992 Team USA Jerseys (originally from: viewtopic.php?f=241&t=106204)
Pinoy21- 2008-09 Orlando Magic Jerseys, 2024 city jerseys
Shuajota- Bostjan Nachbar, Rasheed Wallace, and Carlos Arroyo Cyberfaces
Dee4Three- Retro court contributions https://forums.nba-live.com/viewtopic.php?f=258&t=107928&start=500#p2003231. He worked on retro cyberfaces check them out in his thread here: viewtopic.php?f=258&t=109230 Also some of his 2k17 portraits were used for this
bigticket0521- A heavy contributor to portraits created for Dee4Three's 2k17 UCTR which have been used in this roster.
sticky-fingers- Has done such a fantastic job with many cyberfaces, courts (including some all-star courts), 2012 Team USA jerseys, 2013 Hollywood Nights Alternate jerseys, and helped me learn the CE tables in 2k19. Major contributor with Olympic jerseys
Mr.Star- Quite a bit of cyberfaces. Please check out his thread for more work: viewtopic.php?f=258&t=108675
trevorjpt33- Cyberface conversions, particularly the Reggie Miller for the roster, video tutorials with 3D accessories
ksmiz- for all his work on the CE tables which would make this roster impossible without him
looyh- for the NBA2k_Hook and roster editor, without this, the roster would be nowhere near as accurate and usable
2kspecialist -several cyberfaces used in this mod from the website and thread. Please reach out to me if you feel your work was uploaded to this site and used in this mod
Retroman - some cyberface conversions/retro /all-star jersey mods
Hova- Mikki Moore and Danny Fortson Cyberfaces
Glenski - Lorenzen Wright, Malik Rose, Stromile Swift, Micheal Williams, Dale Davis, etc.
Thunder2k20- Great work on various year-specific portraits and action shots

Simonn-Lee - Blue alternate Cavs jerseys for 2016 and 2017 Cavs. Young Tyson Chandler cyberface
RetroJack - Face textures from his 2k21/2k22 faces
dmx_133 - some of his retro headshot portraits he made for his 1990 mod are in here
raul77 - most 2020 and 2021 season portraits were made by him
Xiskeg - 2020 Mike Conley cyberface
Arteezy - multiple cyberfaces, but particularly the base for the 97 and 99 Dennis Rodmans
yh77 - cyberface conversions

bratnajbolji - 2004 and 2007 All-Star game courts

I have used a few face textures, courts, and jerseys from Stildo33's Classic Seasons Mod. It isn't specified who did which cyberface, so I'll credit the whole team. You should check out the mod anyways because they put so much work into it!: viewtopic.php?f=241&t=106204#p1946543

If you ARE NOT credited in this thread and you think you should be, let me know and I'll get you in here. I am not intending to steal work without credit!!

NBA 2K_Hook Download:

If you are having trouble with the Hook provided in the download, try it direct from the source, but place my config file in your NBA 2K_Hook folder:

viewtopic.php?f=258&t=108024



Offline Roster Download Help:

If you are new to offline roster files, please watch a tutorial on how to download them properly:

TGsoGood made a great tutorial on this if you are lost:
phpBB [video]




I explain where the files should go in the folder names, but if necessary:

-waigua goes in your main NBA 2K20 directory folder

-The roster files in the Roster Files folder will go in your remote folder for 2k20. As shown in the video tutorial above, you will have to create a roster file in game and then name whichever roster you want to download the same name and copy it over to replace it (Example: You create a roster in the game, it shows up as roster003, You would take my roster titled 2009Roster, change that file name to roster003 and drag it over to your remote folder to replace it).


This is where my NBA 2K20 "Remote" folder is. It is likely that the numbers will not be exact for you, PLEASE watch a tutorial on how to install offline rosters if you have any trouble

Really love your roster for 2K19, well balanced, so happy to see your next project :D

With my new job, my schedule will be busier now, i dont think i could create all the missing courts for the teams you add.
But send me your list, I could have some stuff in the boxes that could help ;)

Suggestions ? Raptors 2018/19 :idea:

I’m in the same boat with a new job. I won’t have the same amount of time as I did a few months ago for the last roster. Mostly going to be evenings and weekends for me lol. Help as much or as little as you’re able to! I’ll strongly consider that Raptors team for their current slot. I won’t be rushing as much with this so take your time.

I've always used that Kenny Render for the 95 Rockets (as you know)

I believe if you swap in an appearance file from a player with his skin/body type, it will work.

It's been quite awhile since I messed with that.

No worries.

The appearance file is inside the players PNG.iff. Find someone with Kennys skin color, export both PNGs from 2K17 explorer, and swap the appearance file from that player into Kennys PNG.. Make sure the player has the same body type as Kenny as well.

Haven’t figured out the explorer tool yet, so no update on the Kenny Smith. I’m slowly creating players for the roster, but I don’t want to start working too much on the actual roster in case there are any major updates coming up with added legends

I spent much of yesterday going through cyber faces to find good lookalikes for players in my roster using the fictional faces they have in the files. Of course, the roster won’t really take off until I get a proper team editing table. For now, it’s mostly just creating missing players. Keep those suggestions and thoughts coming!

I’m probably not the best to ask, but it can probably be done when the roster editing tables get released

Postby BobbyColtrane on Thu Sep 19, 2019 2:39 am

1. This is awesome.

2. I humbly request that you consider the '99 Spurs for one of the slots. That was the best Twin Towers year, Duncan was a monster, Mario Elie was added, and the Spurs were an excellent team that is often overlooked because of the lockout. They went 15-2 in the playoffs, losing 1 game to KG's Timberwolves and 1 game in the Finals. In between, they swept the Kobe/Shaq Lakers and the Jail Blazers. Anyway, one of my favorite teams that never gets added. Instead we get rookie Duncan in '98. Womp womp.

I’ll take that Spurs team into consideration. I had them last year but didn’t see a lot of demand for them. Still in the planning phase while I wait for a team editor table

I'm strongly considering putting the 2010 Suns in the 2003 Suns slot. Marbury will still be represented on the 1998 Timberwolves, but I just think the '03 Suns are a bit unnecessary. I'm thinking I might add the 1983 Suns or possibly the 1976 Finals team instead.
