This tool allows you to easily and quickly combine cyberfaces to create new ones. For example, let's say you want to use the head shape from Joakim Noah, the skin texture from Anthony Davis, and add Reggie Bullock's hair to create your ultimate dream monster. No problem!

                                     Don't ask me why.

If you've ever tried combining cyberfaces manually, you'll know it can be quite a tedious process. You have to move around lots of files, usually only to find out that the faces you've picked don't really work together as well as you had imagined, so you have to start over. It's a hassle!

This tool aims to automate all that, hopefully saving lots of time.

How to use:

    First time setup: Edit 'config.ini' in your favourite text editor (Notepad will do) and change NBAPath and WaiguaPath to point to your game installation folder and Mods folder, respectively.

  1. Make a copy of this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eNiLeTZKiPvM8ejeyjrg6v2crch9ReqlH6mGKtI05Zw/edit?usp=sharing
  2. Put in the CFIDs you want to combine. Only the columns "Output CF ID", "Base" and "Skin" are required, the rest can be empty (but don't add or remove any columns).
  3. Go to File > Download > Comma-separated values (.csv, current sheet)
  4. Drag the downloaded .CSV file onto CyberfaceMixer.exe


Note that you can use tattoos with any skin tone. The tool will automatically extract the tattoo and apply it to the proper skin tone - however, this process can take a few seconds, so expect slightly longer export times when using tattoos.

As an example, here's Brian Scalabrine with JR Smith's tattoo matching his skin tone:

Disclaimer:
To work as fast as possible, the tool does not ask before overwriting / deleting files in your Mods folder. Therefore, if you have any mods installed, please take care to backup your Mods folder. I do not take responsibility for any lost files.

Tips:

  • To help you pick which cyberfaces to combine, here are reference screenshots of all cyberfaces in the game: https://forums.nba-live.com/viewtopic.php?f=267&t=110882
  • Not all combinations will look good, it's all about experimentation. For this reason, I strongly recommend trying out multiple combinations at once. For example, create a draft class in-game with CFIDs 10000-10049 assigned, for previewing your experimental cyberfaces in-game.
  • If you make a shortcut to CyberfaceMixer.exe on your desktop, then you can drag CSV files onto the shortcut for easier access.


Tested & working on NBA 2K21 and 2K20 with hundreds of faces, but there may still be bugs, so please report any issues you might come across.
