Scanning Your Face Into NBA 2K15 Is Kind of Hard

You can change the skin tone after the scan is done. In terms of your beard, my scan recognized mine but I had to add facial hair in the post scan edit for it to look close to right.

Where do you edit skin tone? Maybe I missed it. In vitals, profile sculpting, features, etc.? Or is it after "complete"? Sorry for being bothersome for you or anybody about this. I'm clueless.

Edit: It's under vitals. Good god, I'm blind, guys! I'm blind!

I think its how slow you move your face and how much light your around, last night I tried the scan in my basement where the lighting is pretty bad, but tried the scan earlier upstairs and got the results in the above pic. I opened the blinds and had a lamp on the other side where shadow of my face would be. And move my face very slow while scanning , i kept it straight until they say turn, moved left first then right as they said. I moved slow enough to the point where I turned to each side once.

I've spent nearly an hour and a half trying this. The best source for the Kinect is on top of my TV and my TV is near the window facing the side wall, Meaning that my entire face comes out dark, with one side not really scanning at all.

My best result has been positioning the Kinect on one of the open blinds of my window, while sitting on a chair directly across from it. Unfortunately, I can't see the TV without turning my head and the scan starts too soon afterwards that I can't adjust myself so the facial features come out crooked. When I position it on a tray that I have for food and sit on the floor, the red window won't turn green for whatever reason. I don't understand this.

This Damn kinect camera won't read my face unless im far away & my shoulders end up in the box but it always ends up putting my eyes down by my nostrils & so on. Frustrating!

that happened to me first time too. you have to make sure your camera is exactly eye height. if you took glasses off and held them straight out front of your face 6-12inches thats where the camera needs to be. I had to put my camera on a dresser and 2 tissue boxes to get it to the right height and it worked .

for those who are having problems with the camera not picking up your face (not turning green) try using less light. I did the 2 lamps method at first but it wouldnt pick up my face until I just used regular lighting in the room. my skin tone was perfect. im a white dude though so not sure if that made a difference from the guy who made the tutorial. also make sure you turn your head real slow and not farther than 30 degrees or it loses your face.

the guy in the tutorial also said if it loses your face at any point start again. On my second I got a good scan but it was only 3700 points it captured and it said average capture or whatwver so I tried again. on the next attempt every time I turned my head it lost my face. must of did this 15 times but I figured I would just see it through and not start over. it eventually finished and it captured 5800 points and turned out perfect.

not saying any of this will work for you but maybe my results will help someone having problems even if they follow the tutorial.

Guys, the most important lighting is right in front of you, remember the camera is only focusing in 1 direction which is straight ahead, you are providing the angles by going left to right.

If you have an unbalanced amount of light (natural window light from 1 side, and a lamp light from the other sided), it will lose track of your face.

But don't expect that you can use a flashlight, the light that is in front of you has to have a broad angle, and try to direct it into your face.

After I did this, 3 hours later, I was able to get counts of 4000, 4 consecutive times, and before, I didn't even get 2000, and it was telling me I had a problem with my scan.

Also, if the camera if losing your face, its due to not enough lighting, or u are drifting in and out of focus, I have a big face so 6 to 12 inches was too close, my scans only came out at a distance of 18 to 24 inches, huge difference from the directions.
