Also note that when I inserted 304 to 305 and 306 to 307, all of the coaches & camera crew have white faces with brown skin tones.


Yea , it's the way the graphic was made by EA. There is no separate "back" to the shirt. It was designed to be a sweatshirt with both front and back identical. Whatever you paint on the front (white with black tie) will be the same on the back.

"white faces with brown skin tones" , Yea , I lightened their faces for some reason , not sure why , feel free to to use the default graphic and put my clothes on them

Makes sense that it's the tie. EA flips images all throughout the game. I also noticed that horizontal flip with my custom NBA stadiums & new skylines!

I also did the enlargement, it works fine!

Up close they are normal

The 3D Tmdl files for this "sideline crowd" are 304 - 307 in PLADATA.DAT.

If you put the larger 304 (uncompressed) file into the other smaller files slots in PLADATA.DAT (305 - 307)

The sideline crowd looks normal at all distances

(Now if we can only fix those bench-warmers)


Sorry to bump and old thread but this is awesome. Would this method also work with the players helmets/facemasks? At the coin toss before the game there are various low graphic levels revealed before the high resolution facemask loads, when playing with the "zoom" camera angle the defense has one of the middle resolution facemasks and it's a eye sore.

Here are some pics of this fix with the FF/FI mod at 1080p. I think it's a major upgrade.
