vetmin's Force Starting Lineup Portraits


By default, there are three versions of the starting lineup display: one that shows player portraits and two that are text only. This mod overwrites the two text-only versions with duplicates of the portrait version, so that any time the starting lineup is displayed pregame, it is the portrait version. Obviously if a player is a Create-A-Player or has not been assigned a portrait, it will display his cyberface, not an actual photo portrait. Also, in rare instances where the game does not load a starting lineup overlay at all (i.e., those occasional circumstances where the default game doesn't show anything -- no names, no photos, no nothing), none will be seen with this mod. This mod doesn't make starting lineup overlays appear, it merely makes sure that when they do appear, they have the portrait display.

This is just awesome!
By the same method, would it be possible to, for example, force the starting lineups presentation to be played? Right now it's very rare that you get to see it.
Also, would it be possible to decide which stats to show in the lower third graphics that sometimes show you stats for the game or season?

Thanks! As far as I understand, the actual lineups presentation where the players are walking out and everything is controlled in a totally different way. Yes, they're starting lineups, but the important thing is what kind of game element something is (e.g., overlay / popup, character animation, menu configuration, character model, etc. etc. etc.), so in fact the starting lineup overlays in my mod have much more in common with scoreboards, breakboards, etc. than they do with what you're talking about. I believe that the actual starting lineup character model sequence is simply part of the 'game flow' configuration, which I haven't tried modding.

It's interesting to me though that you find the full starting lineup sequence rare to see. I feel like I'm seeing it way way more than last year, and I'm more interested in disabling it than making it appear more, as those intro sequences are kind of a mess for retro rosters where the announcers don't know anyone's names.

Thank you for the thorough answer!
I haven't actually played that much of 2K23 yet, only quick play games and the Jordan Challenge. I'm waiting for looyh's roster tool so I can start a MyLeague, but I am interested to see if maybe there are starting lineups more often this year then cause there hasn't been in past year. Would be interesting if someone figured out how to get them to play more often or less often...

I've installed the 90's era graphics you posted and they work great! I will be using them in my MyLeague.

When it comes to editing the actualy information in the overlays/popups; is that something that's possible? So you could decide which stats to show?

Really hope you get some progress in getting the other era graphics, like season standings, etc, to work as well!
Again, great work!

Oh, my bad I forgot to answer that. In principle it's possible, but it's not always easy finding the exact hex codes for a given type of data, nor -- in the case of lower3rd panels, at least in previous years -- is it always easy knowing where to input the changes. To be honest, unless I discover some method that makes it really really easy, I probably will not bother with customizing the types of data that appear by default.

Interesting to know that it's at least possible. Too bad I don't really know how to mod anything more than editing a court template, otherwise I would try to look into this.
The prospect that you might figure out how to get all the other retro overlays and wipes and such has me excited though!

Thanks again and thank you for taking the time to answer my questions!

Glad I could help! Yes, I figured it out for 2K22, but I don't think anyone noticed / cared. Works the same way though.

vetmin's NBA 2K23 80s Era Filter



As of October 9, 2022, this application allows for the toggling of the 1980s Era Filter in NBA 2K23 (any mode, even on menu screens that make use of a stadium file). To use, turn on NBA 2K23, open my application, then go back in NBA 2K23 and press Ctrl+1 to toggle on/off. I would've liked to have included the 90s filter as well, but I have not figured it out yet.

NOTE: If this application no longer works, it's because a new game patch killed it. Keep a lookout for my update (or send me a message if you wanna make sure I intend to release one; I don't mind). It also won't work if you use an earlier patch than the one as of this application's date.

NOTE #2: If you're new to trainers (i.e., this sort of application), they are often flagged as viruses. Here is a good overview of the topic: https://fearlessrevolution.com/viewtopic.php?t=1877. Use Google to search for solutions to getting this sort of software by your anti-virus (e.g., "game trainers windows defender"); it is a very, very common topic and you'll find a ton of people detailing exactly what to do, which is why I'm not gonna reinvent the wheel with a tutorial here.

Hi, I wanted to download your MyLeague Overhaul, but it seems some company called "Red Points Solution" filed a DMC claim?! Could you reupload it again?

[Divaco]

Can you re-upload please your links for "vetmin's Minimalist 2K23 Indicators" and "vetmin's Force Starting Lineup Portraits", looks like actual links are broken. Thanks.

[KyotoCarl]

Any luck in getting the other retro overlays (stats, wipes, etc.,) to work as well?

I think the download link is not working, it said 'Something appears to be missing…'

Hi there! Is there any updated links? Most of theme are remove

Can you provide a new link please? this one is no longer available

[vetmin]

Sorry for not replying sooner. No new mods will be posted to this thread and no links will be updated. This thread was specifically targeted by Take-Two when they issued takedowns for mods a few weeks ago, so I have no intention of throwing more targets in their crosshairs.

is it safe to assume that My League overhaul is dead then too?

All those mods were removed by Take Two and will not be reuploaded as vetmin said.

Yep. Between Take-Two issuing takedowns and other modders passing my work off as their own, I decided I’m out. Unless something seems as though it will be different in that regard, I’m henceforth just modding my own game.

Do you mean you have the EXE but it’s not having an effect in-game? Last I tried it worked, but it’s certainly possible that a patch killed it. I don’t use filters personally but it was easy to create so I did just to be nice, but no future updates will be released, since I’m no longer modding for purposes beyond my own personal use.

Vetmin how about you make yourself a patreon page. I would gladly support that and im sure others will as well. Just a thought.

I appreciate the suggestion, but if Take-Two had a problem with my mods when they were free, I’m sure they’d have an even bigger problem with my profiting from them. I’m not about to make a Patreon, collect money, then have it shut down and have to issue a bunch of refunds. Pain in the butt. Plus I have little interest in selling mods because then I’d have to provide a bunch of customer support for them.

Totally understandable. It really sucks when people use people's work and pass them on as their own.

I'm a big fan of your work and hate to see that it's come to this. Hopefully the attitude changes and you can be back and contribute to the community, because your work, imo, enhances the game by more than you know for me. It gives the game a story and makes it feel more alive.

[Long_170788]

im about to ask what font is that in the 80s era, i manage to make it on switch without changing the file but the font seems not correct. only in the 80s presentation

[Long_170788]
