Re: Got 2k5 working on Macbook Pro

I'm very interested in this as well. Updated rosters you say? Upconverting graphics as well?

Re: Got 2k5 working on Macbook Pro

It would have to be an emulator, you cannot do this without an emulator on any PC/Mac.

On PC, it just is simple tweaking the settings at the right time and save states.

Updated rosters work with the PS2 save emulator that works with the PS2 emulator. Honestly, my graphics look better on the PC due to upping the resolution compared to it on the PS2.

Can you post an explanation on how to do it? I keep getting stuck on the Chris Berman screen.. It goes to black then nothing. I think I followed all the settings too

Alright I got the game to work.. RUNS FLAWLESS IN FULL HD GLORY!!!

Prob is, How do I get my Franchise save to work? I imported the .max file in to the PS2 memory card but it doesn't see my save only the VIP file. Help?

I am assuming this works on WINDOWS as well. All you need is the emulator? What is the emulator called? Also, I have a xbox 360 that i can play NFL2k5 on, but does it look better on the computer?

The emulator is PSCx2 I believe, and it will look the same on the computer as far as I'm aware, but however the reason why this is a big deal is that this opens the game up to mods where someone can change textures of the field or the stadium lights, seats, people, helmets, jerseys etc. Which in return will make the game look a hell of a lot better. But I don't believe that the emulator is running smoothly, although I wouldn't know about that just things I've heard, and the modding hasn't been accomplished nor attempted as far as my knowledge goes.

Re: Got 2k5 working on Macbook Pro

Guys, I have a full tutorial for windows a few threads down on how to get game running and franchise and updated rosters etc.

It was closed since it used an emulator but this thread has stayed open. But it's still up just near the bottom.

Re: Got 2k5 working on Macbook Pro

Is this running strictly on OS X, or does it need to be running on Windows thru Parallels? All I have is Macs, but I'm VERY VERY intrigued by this!
