It's used by players like Dwyane Wade, DeMarcus Cousins, Kemba Walker, Derrick Favors etc. Bodytype #3 - This is the skinny body type. It's used by players like Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins, Kevin Durant (2K16) etc. Bodytype #4 - This is the muscular body type. It's used by players like LeBron James, Isaiah Thomas, Dwight Howard, Nene, David West etc. Bodytype #5 - This is the awkward fat body type. It's used by players like Dirk Nowitzki, D'Angelo Russell, Andre Drummond, Jonas Valanciunas etc. Bodytype #6 - This is the fat body type. It's used by players like Draymond Green, Glen Davis, Shaquille O'Neal, Al Jefferson, Zach Randolph Bodytype #7 - This is the high school body type. It's going to be the body type that Kevin Durant is going to be using in NBA 2K17 and it looks ****ing stupid. When they say body scans they don't mean they actually scan the size of the arm/legs etc. All they do is scan the wingspan, the shoulder height, and the body length.* To prove my point watch what happens when I swap out a player with the same body type and give them the same height, wingspan, shoulder height and the same body length as the previous player in this GIF.

Bingo.

Anybody who got heavily involved in hex editing 2K on the 360 might realize this. That's why I keep saying "the skeletons that are wrapped in the player likenesses."

Didn't really know how to dive into all of the details about the diff body types, skin-tones, cyberfaces, & how you could apply any of them to any player... I mean...I once had Soloman Jones running around with white legs (accidentally, when I first started hexing lol)

The pic speaks for itself tho.

2K needs to fix the models themselves. It's not the individual players.


Edit:

linked the gif for ya

Damn.



Could this be false advertisement?

[Trackball]

Okay, I admit: How is this even possible?

Didn't they show Anthony Davis getting a full-body scan last year?

Because that DOES sound like false advertising to me--choosing the lazy route instead of scanning as many players as possible!

Okay, I stand corrected. Didn't know they only had so many body types. Sounds like 2K Sports just need to add more.

[MarkWilliam]

I speculate that the body scanning is more about tones/textures/colours than about length/size/shape.....


Could be wrong though.

More info from that thread in case folks didn't go there and/or read it:

Quote:

Their bodies are literally the exact same. There are a couple of differences, like the length and size of Carmelo and Curry's legs but the size of the arms are literally the same. These supposed 'body scans' don't scan the size of arms. You will also notice their jerseys are the exact same, this jersey comes with the player model. It's a bit misleading to be honest and I'm surprised people haven't noticed this over the past two years. As I've said before, they have given KD the high school player model which is Bodytype #7. It looks like Paul George will have the same player model from 2K16, which is Bodytype number #1.

Trying to tell ya'll lol. There aren't any new player models. Just reused/reconfigured ones. 'Lean' doesn't exist in 2K. Just "less stocky"
