Hey whats up guys i joined the community because i wanted to learn how to make games,I’ve always been interested in doing so.
My first question is?If i wanted to add or change something in a game(PC Version) such as adding physics or changing the way the game plays or just the movement and dribbling animations how would i go about doing so?
The game i plan on starting a project with is Nba Live 08,I would like to change the animations and ai in the game to make it more realistic as that of the nba 2k series.Hopefully i’ve come to the right place as you guys do awesome work here.How would i go about importing the data i want to change.I havent any programming skills but im a very fast learner.I believe i can do it and i have patience also.I dont plan to make a profit but use this as an experience into later building my own game from scratch.Also how do you find where the game physics engine is or the file that operates it so that you would be able to change the motion and animations in the game.
Thanks im sure someone out there can help me get started.
Welcome to the community. In Unity it is not possible to alter and modify retail games unless they give you the source code and the game was made in Unity. It may also be illegal to decompile the game. Unity is more aimed towards making your own project. You could play around with other Unity projects as well. If you can’t make your own basketball game, you could always looks for an open source Unity project, but there may not be one. Your best bet would be learning Unity and programming and when you’re ready (it won’t be instantly) make a basketball simulation.
It would probably be quicker to start your own basketball game rather than decompile and change nba live 08. And much more legal i suppose to 
Thanks for replying guys
Thats understandable but with unity would i be able to make it more realistic than these games are today
i look to put team scuffles and etc in my simulation game i already edited nba live’s animation just for fun of course combing tons of ea basketball games
I have about a team of 3 or 4 of us but they do overlays and screens im the animation guy and im just a newbie still…lol.Im also trying to work with cryengine3.If i start from scratch how would i start with the source code i assume do i build one or compile one and are either one of these engines good to do a simulation hoops game on?
