Updated Playbooks & Coaching Profiles by theyano!
Other than your basic roster update, we also have updated playbooks & coaching profiles by theyano! Gameplay will now be considerably smoother with this new update since there will be better playcalling by the CPU. New playbooks are also available for the all of the teams in case you are into playcalling in-game. There are also a LOT of error fixes since the initial release. We corrected the Years Pro for all players (incorrect in the initial update), the team abbreviation on the scoreboard for the Denver Nuggets (incorrect in the initial update), and a bunch of rookie player info that was all incorrect.
New Cyberfaces
(Buddy Hield & Domantas Sabonis' cyberface updates)
We add Stephon Marbury's cyberface to the game since we will be adding him to the next NBA roster update for the July 2 update. We also updated Buddy Hield and Domantas Sabonis' cyberfaces for the NBA roster. Head coach Kenny Atkinson of the Brooklyn Nets now also has a cyberface after being reported to have missing his cyberface in the update. To enjoy these new cyberfaces, you need to download this small follow-up pack. If you haven't downloaded v4.0 (initial release on June 3) yet, you don't have to download this follow-up pack since Main Directory Files 21 has already been re-uploaded with the files in this follow-up pack included.
#ProjectFreeAgency Notes
We would like to remind everyone of the notes from the initial v4.0 update. The contracts are not updated, we are waiting for the contracts to be finalized for us to adjust to the in-game salary cap since salary caps cannot be modified in NBA 2K14. The second round NBA Draft rookies do not have guaranteed contracts in the NBA yet so we did not include them in any of the rosters yet until probably close to Opening Day for the NBA. The rookie showcase still does not feature the newest NBA rookies yet. If some signings were not added yet to the update, it most likely means that the missing signing is part of the update for the next day (in this case, July 2). The update is called July 1 update due to the fact that the first day of Free Agency in the USA was July 1. NLSC is now back up and running so the NLSC mirror now works. There are some files for the NBA mods that are still in NLSC, even though NLSC now requires signing up to download. We will be uploading them soon..
