Do you know if it’s possible to replace whole models in the big shoe global? Like replacing the default Kobe v model with the Kobe V Protro or Black mamba models?

I’m itching to mess with it after learning how to mess with the global shoe textures in the creator, but don’t want to destroy my overarching global in the process lol.

I do know and it is, but it is easier for you to just swap the style files? Like I posted above.
From the shoe_styles file
"1040" : [ "shoes_player_nike_kobe5", "EDITABLE" ],
"1054" : [ "shoes_player_nike_kobe5_blackmamba", "NOT_EDITABLE" ],
"1199" : [ "shoes_player_nike_kobe5_blackmamba", "NOT_EDITABLE" ],
"1178" : [ "shoes_player_nike_kobe5_protrope", "NOT_EDITABLE" ],
"1161" : [ "shoes_player_nike_kobe5_protrope", "NOT_EDITABLE" ],

You can export the 1054 files and rename to 1040. You might have to mess with the texture files.

It's probably just easier to replace the default 1040 texture with the the 1054 one as the shoe is the same

Thank you! I did try a direct swap in the global with 7-zip but it just went back to a slightly older save like I did nothing at all lol. A lightbulb went off and I was able to finally figure out how to swap styles. I combined the ng from one of xyron's commisions with a modified style from relic/jackpot and was able to get the perfect kobe 9 elite low's to equip. I also had some not so successful experiments lol. Next I'm going to try and figure out how to update 2k24 shoes to work in 2k25. The process seems complicated when editing the stuff inside the ng files.

Re: OS NBA 2K25 Shoe Vault - Discussion

What did you try in the global? the individual shoe files in there are not used at all in game.
I thought you wanted 5s not 9s but as long as you are happy. Have you got a pic of the one you have?
I don't think you can add 24 shoes in 25 but what are you thinking?
The ng files normally just have normal and physics files and a lot of shoes use the roster texture files which I do not understand (especially having the UID files for some shoe\team combos but not all)

I tried a 1 for 1 swap of kobe V files, in the global, but it didn't work. The style swapping the 9's was a later thing. I knew we couldn't add 2k24 shoes to 2k25, but I know they can basically be re-wrapped and updated somehow. I just need to watch somebody do it to learn how.

No rewrapping needed, just drop the dds into the shoe of that name in roster textures. Or make the dds a pattern to replace camo etc and use the editor? Or edit the data in the big customshoedata file in the shoe_global. There are loads of variants of some crap shoes that can be overwritten like Kyrie 1s for eg (think that has 50 odd). I have done loads of shoe stuff the last couple of years but 2K keep finding new stupider ways to make it difficult. I think my grinches look better ;-)

Did you pay for those Harden 9s?
