1978-79 Roster 2K16 for PS4

[metallicarl]

This is my first attempt at 2K rosters after many Madden/NCAA rosters. I'm going to make this as realistic as possible but it is a work in progress. Since there were only 22 teams in the NBA the remaining teams are filled out with rookies that didnt make rosters and vets that had recently played as well as European league players. All teams are in their current slots except Oklahoma City which needs to be swapped out with classic Seattle. The FA pool is also named with ex-players. File is complete as of 12/18/15.

What was done:
All players have been named/height/weight/college
All players and Free agents have been rated
Rotations have been set
Players contracts/styles done/signature/equipment have been edited
named teams for 8 teams not in league in 78-79




The roster is listed as 1978-79 under the name OldschoolCarl
The 1979 draft class is done, listed as 79-80 under the name OldschoolCarl

If anyone has any suggestions or edits they think should be made, please post in this thread. Hope everyone enjoys!!

Is there anyway to use the shorter trunks that were worn in those years versus the current longer ones for this mod ?

Really enjoying this Season Roster ......... The only NBA Team I've ever followed were the New Orleans Jazz from that era with Maravich (although I did somewhat follow the New Orleans Buccaneers too) so this mod is on target for my enjoyment!

Thanks,
Don

The only way to use the shorter shorts is to use the classsic teams but then you can only use one option for the uniform. Let me know what you think of the Jazz team and if they need any changes. I followed tha Atlanta Hawks at that time, they were the only team on TV consistently because of TBS. I will be going thru and tweaking players as I test the rosters too but any feedback from you Don is welcome.

I appreciate the offer, but to keep the ratings consistant I will do one eventually. I have the first years class named but havent edited it at all.
