Knicks Fans: Fix for Carmelo's Jumper in NBA 2K12

[dynamiks]

Ok lets use this thread to post players who's signature jump shot isn't accurate in the game, and post the tweaked settings to correct it and get it as close as possible to their real life shot. And if you like, please feel free to post videos of the changes you made.

Ok so as a big Carmelo fan, I was disappointed in Melo's signature jumper in NBA 2K12. It is definitely not accurate to his real life jumper, and I noticed it right away the other day. Thankfully I remembered that 2K has the custom jump shot feature, and I was able to fix it perfectly. Now it looks exactly like his jumpshot from real life.

If any of you are interested in fixing this all you have to do is go to Rosters, go to Carmelo and hit Edit player. Go over to his signature moves, and change his Shot Base to Jump Shot 25.

If you watch the video below, you will see his jumper perfectly. Notice that he arches his feet forward when he jumps and they both touch at the top of his jump. He also has a slight lean to the right, then when he lands he takes a few steps back.

And here is a video I took of the improved version in 2K12

Anyway I hope you guys find this useful, cause I know it makes me feel much better now, cause I was disappointed with his default jumper.

I agree that his jumper last year was more accurate than this year, but now that I was able to make this change, I think it's perfect. The had his release perfect but his shot base was off, so with this fix I think it's as close as you will get to the real thing

I am ok with the Melo jumper in 2K12 but will try your suggestion later today.

But what about STAT...I got so used to last years that this year it feels way different

Also check Shawne Williams...Looks bad

Lemme know what you think. Personally I didn't like how slow and straight his jump was on the default setting.

But I will look into Stat's jumpshot next to see if I can come up with a fix for that too

Cool. And Shawne williams is way off. Last years was better for sure

This year he does a karate kick on the way down.

I forgot can't we create jumpshots this year? If so maybe someone good at it can make a new melo shot that we can get or follow

Well you can also change it to one of many they have which is most likely the best way.

I know last year I found a bunch on here that were perfect for the Knicks

Melo's looks pretty good once you change it to that base so good find on that. For Amar'e i kept his base the same just changed his shot to Steve Nash or Jumpshot 69 looks pretty good too. After watching his highlights i think either one of them two fits him better than what they gave him, cause in the highlights you watch of him, he puts his arms up higher than they look in the shot they gave him in 2k12. For Williams put his to set shot 6 it look a lil better. If you watch his highlights too he h as a slight twist and his right leg comes out a little not much, so changing it to set shot 6 it looks more like it, its not perfect by any means but that's what i came up with so far lol

So far I found that switching Stoudemire's Shooting Form to Kevin Love looks the most accurate to his release. The Shot Base you can leave the same like you said.

Almost laughed uncontrollably when I saw this.

I like TD's new shot. Hate Stats but SW... no idea what happened there.

Re: Knicks Fans: Fix for Carmelo's Jumper in NBA 2K12

Yea I pulled up for severally 3 pointers in transtation with Billups the other day. It felt really good.

Got to give 2k credit though for giving us all the options in the jumper changes.
