Baron von Lector Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 File Name: Tecmo NBA Basketball 2016File Submitter: Baron von LectorFile Submitted: 15 Sep 2015File Category: NESThis ROM is based on the upcoming 2015-2016 NBA season. Using ESPN.com's depth charts, the rosters are accurate as of 9-15-15. Most of the work was done using Emuware's Tecmo NBA Manager, however, there were many aspects of the game that couldn't be changed using the editor. For this, I used FCEUX's hex editor and Tile Layer Pro. Using these additional tools, I was able to update team logos (Oklahoma City Thunder and Washington Wizards), remove obsolete hairstyles (mustaches, boxy flat-tops) and replace them with more current head accessories (long hair, headbands, and Jahlil Okafor's exploding afro), replace instances of "1991-92" with "2015-16", and other miscellaneous items. Along with roster updates, I (to the best of my knowledge) fixed the ratings to reflect the real-life counterparts. However, there is one small minor issue that doesn't affect gameplay, but can be annoying if you're all about 100% accuracy. There are some mercenaries in the game (Festus Ezeli, Mike Miller, Joey Dorsey, and Spencer Hawes) that try to ruin the simulation experience during season play. For some strange reason, these players, regardless of how I rate them (and they're relatively low-rated), end up leading the league in scoring with 30+ points-per-game every season. I don't know why this is. If you can ignore them, right underneath them will be Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and the rest of the NBA elite. Like I said, it's just a small detail issue. There are 27 teams in the game. Nashville, Toronto, and New Orleans were the three teams that were left out.

TeCmO_sUpEr_BoWl Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 This is a great rom Nice work on the logos and new hairstyles. One question though: why is the jumping ability of guys like Westbrook and Rose so low? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One question though: why is the jumping ability of guys like Westbrook and Rose so low? Thanks! They may or may not have fallen under my umbrella of most guards not having high jumping ability. Do you think they were rated too low? I can look at it in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinFN Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Great work Baron. One quick note, OKC still shows up as Sonics on the half time stat sheet. But, solid work otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
