NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

Re: NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

I'm going to start the francese with the Jazz and have some questions:

I saw Clutch settings and salary cap is set at the minimum with no big growth. Turn hard cap off is enough ti have free agents chance team or they will be forced to remain with the original team?
How can i change the oversea contract years? I don't want Jordan to play in the first bear but let other team to manage FA in season
Thank you for the work

well mostly you can set the salary to how you see fit...I have not really mastered the Salary on editing yet but i put it as the best i feel for all players to be signed....As for Jordan he might retire after one year he might not its all up to the CPU but also you can extend his retirement 1 year

Anyone had any luck finding a workaround for retired jersey numbers? Drafted Yao to the Rockets and want to give him number 11...

I think this can fix this....Change his name to something different accept it then edit his number to 11 accept it then go back and change his name back to Yao Ming

Just want to say I'm in the 2011-12 season now with this, and it's been immensely fun. Only thing is trying to figure out the right contract settings so that free agents get signed, but that's not a big deal.

I just had a 27 year old LaMarcus Aldridge go unsigned in the offseason, 87 ovr rating I believe.


But I've built a really strong Celtics squad, DWade, Melo and John Wall lead the way, with great defense on the interior (Okafor, Diaw, Ibaka, Battier on the wing)

i went through 8 seasons and no crashes...i just never make changes in the offseason to the rule changes or leage alignments and skip the draft
to user pick

Followed your advice and it works fine now! Having a great time with this and only in my second seaso but it’s been a great one. Michael Jordan and Grant Hill both went to the Bulls in the offseason and they finished behind the Lakers who are the defending champs for the best record in the league. Can’t wait to see what happens in the future.

Im glad it works for you now man...And yes it is very fun going through the years seeing where players end up

just made an account to thank you for your work on this man.

the detail is great and i can't wait to sim and see where the league goes.

i've downloaded your rebrands and 99-00 slider settings as well

one thing i've noticed with all myleague's are the contracts problems and mid-tier players asking for $35m, thus staying FA's until the season starts and then signing 1 year $5m contracts. i've been playing around with progression/contract sliders for awhile and will try to update this thread when i find a realistic combo

Re: NBA 2K20: 1999-2000 Roster Project With Draft Classes (20 Year Sim)

decided to start a second sim with this roster, this time i'm taking over the Pelicans (rebranded to a Las Vegas 51's build I made) and will sign Jordan as if he came out of retirement with an expansion team he owns.


team is going to be bad, but i want to see if i can build through the draft, mid-level free agents, since even though I will have money, big name guys won't want to come play for a team that wins like 12 games

Got a dream match up in the NBA Finals with the Shaq/Kobe Lakers facing the new look Chicago Bulls. Here is how it ended.

First of all, I love this roster. Had a super interesting first season, the Knicks took it all in game 7 against the Lakers. Except the Jazz (did not make it, Malone missed 20 games tho) and the Pacers (Rose missed half the season tho, 8th seed) I also liked the sim stats, which I am really picky about. Amazing season.

30-team-control, the plan is basically to see where the league is going the next 20 years with a realistic management. And now...

I met several blue screens since I hit the off-season. Since the free agency screen. Right now, I am watching salary situations for every team (I am the Hire Personal checkpoint rn), and cant go on for longer than 2-3 minutes until it just crashes without a specific action, it does not matter if I am at the salary cap screen or watching season stats. What can I do? Is there some salary bug for a team/player? Do I have to add players to the free agency pool since there were a lot of retirements? I am happy about every hint I can get. A 30-team-control MyLeague with this roster and draft classes is the best experience I can imagine, I would love to hold onto this dream.

To avoid crashing basically once you get to the off season, you have to sim through everything, don't choose anything, no drafts just skip or sim where needed and it should be no crashes.

If you try to download any off season moves, drafts etc, it will crash, some report they have no issues in the off season, some don't, I haven't gotten to it yet, my crashes happen before even getting there but that was because I was trying to load settings that were different from clutches recommendations but once I did what he said things were fine.

First, I want to thanks Clutch0z for doing this amazing project. I am super pumped over here over this 20-year project and am in my first year of rewriting NBA history - but with a major twist. Anyone remember the rumor of Phil Jackson asking Jordan to come out of retirement to be a mentor to Kobe and Shaq? It's been a HUGE What If for me the past 20 years and I can finally make this happen! So again, thanks Clutch0z!

But my question is this. Why the crashes? I'm new to this whole thing despite being a 30-plus year gamer. I'm about to enter the NBA Finals between the Lakers and Pistons and then it's the offseason. I was really hoping to do the offseason myself to ensure that the Pelicans kept sucking since they didn't exist in the NBA in 2000. I don't want to sim the entire offseason because I like to see what happens as it happens, but I will if I absolutely have to.

And I'll post a link to my playlist of this 20-year historical rewrite as soon as I get to the required amount of posts.

Thanks again, Clutch!!!

Honestly only thing I can say is the coding in the game that was over looked. It reminds me of pc modding. Or on Mvp 2005 modding.

There were several mods with several settings and everyone had a different experience and explanation as to why things would crash or not work, and its still viable to this day, even in consoles.

Default settings and setting it up Clutch explained got it working for me as well. The 89-90 Roster falls in this same situation but extremely worst, the teams created had to be edited it was a pain but I finally got it set up and running to. Default was the answer and editing those teams that needed it.

My set up for clutch fantastic roster is basically to let the cpu do everything in season and off season also i watch a lot of cpu vs cpu match ups and I haven't seen anything way out of the normal so far.

Hope it works smoothly for you though and enjoy it.

Stay safe.
Storm.

Thanks for the heads up with Clutch's explanation. I'll read over this thread one more time now that work is officially done for the night.
