Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

oh i know we can rescan at anytime, i just wanted to get this done with before getting into my career.

but I'm good with quick play or online play until i figure this out, so far I've been using the flashlight app on my phone and positioning it over my xb1 camera, it helps to get more reference points however I'm not sure what's causing my face to keep showing up to be below the correct level.

they should make an app for this so we can get into the better location, if possible

Try tilting your head up a little bit...I can get my face looking right but the color is off no matter how many lights/little light/color light etc lol

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

So my room and living room are terrible for lighting...the kitchen's too bright...

I'm bout to bring a $500 43 inch tv and $500 Xbox One/Kinect into the bathroom to scan....

Never in my life have I ever thought I'd have $1000 worth of technology in the same place I do my business..

Sigh.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

ok, so i finally have my face positioned correctly, but my skin is too light, i'll save it though just in case its the best it will get. using the flashlight app directly shinning in my face seems to get more reference points. I just got over 3000.

my forehead looks tall as weel, i think it's because i scanned with the the middle of my forehead lined up with the top of the green box

Ordered camera to pick up this evening. Probably use it and return it.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

it turns out that you can change your skin tone under vitals, i forgot about that, I'm good to go

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

I'm on PS4 and am really excited about this new feature, but is it really worth it to drop $60 on a camera that will probably never be used after the scan? Would really appreciate some opinions.

Returning mine afterwards.

This game seems to think I'm Kane from when he first unmasked in WWE.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

Mine came out fine the first time even with only got like 2700 reference points. I had to do it again because when I accessed my player the second time it loaded in all kinds of wrong settings. I guess it didn't save him correctly to the 2K servers the first time.

I tried it once more and got like 2100 reference points. Later on I'd like to try it again but I think it looks alright.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

Been testing what has the greatest impact on scans and Im getting some good results.


So far the best set up for me has been a giant V pretty much. You want natural light to be coming in from the open space at the top of the V. I placed a lamp at the top tips of the V and the camera at the bottom tip. I propped the camera up to eye level and held a white paper.

7k+ reference points a pop.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

Aight so I tried for like the past two hours and I finally got it to work pretty much...just trying to get the perfect one now so here's some tips.

-Try and go to a smaller room if you can, where the light fills the whole area evenly.

-Have the camera about a foot in front of you and if you can, use your phone's flashlight app and put it underneath the camera illuminating your face.

-Have the main light above you (doesn't matter as long as it's distributed in the room evenly)

-Turn your head as slow as possible, like barely move if you can, and try and keep the same look on your face.

-Make sure to edit when you're done because your head shape and ears won't be right.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

One tip I've found that helped my scans a lot was holding a large white pillow up over my head to block out some of the light glare and give my guy a more even skin tone.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

It took me what felt like FOREVER (90 minutes) and this was the best one. It was an above average scan - 4200 scan points.

Re: 2K15 Post Your Facescan Thread

It's probably a good thing this thread is here or I'd have just given up. My first scan came out as a creature, second one came out with the wrong facial features and what appeared to be blackface, and the third scan crashed my game. These tips should help, though. Thanks bros.
