Tutorial To Create a New 2d Court

Postby wilddog79 » 25 Dec 2025, 00:53

Hello,

After of many time disconnected of this game i have seen that there are updates and changes in the game. According to the knowledge that i have i tried to create a new court, creating folders and subfolders with the necessary files but i couldn't create the logo in the courts' menu, because with it i would continue adjusting the court and all that.

Could somebody guide me not step by step because i know it's something not short but guide me some way please?

I wait for some help please

Hello,

send me your Mod with only 1 court and its logo and I'll have a look.

I got your PM, but it's the whole XKT Mod plus your stuff.

I won't check that. :fear:

I can check a Mod having only 1 court and its logo.

I wrote all those steps because i thought that would be easier for you, In the end you only uncompress that file and go to the xkt folder, it wasn't many work to do, but i will include again only what you requested. The idea is to know how to solve the problem too.

The idea is to have exactly the same thing on my PC as yours, without the XKT Mod, and I can check whether the tournament logo is displayed or not, without having to care about anything else (ie: the XKT Mod).

You just sent me 2 pictures. I want a Mod in a .zip file that can install on my unmodded game, and shows the icon isn't correctly displayed ; then I'll check what's wrong. I'm not going to build the Mod for you, though. :blackeye:

Your folder name is "00138 Bratislava Challenger" instead of "0138 Bratislava Challenger". You should check the Player.log for errors and warnings ; it will help you find your issues.

I don't know what you mean by "can't run it", but when I load it, it seems kinda ok, except there's no texture on the ground, but it's normal, your Surface.ini specifies :
MaterialIn = Basel_Blue_in
MaterialOut = Basel_Blue_out
And I don't have these materials in your little Mod.

BTW, if you want to build your Mod on top of the XKT Mod, don't mix your stuff with the XKT Mod, but build your Mod in a separate folder. Read this little tutorial : topic60-35939.php .

When i say "run it" i mean "Load it", before I built courts adding these ones to old versions of the Mod, but they have modified the way to create courts according to what I see and It's what I don't understand how to do. In relation with the materials that you mention I used an ini file of other court modifiyng parts of it.

You have shared a link where they teach how to create a player mod and I appreciate what you have made, but i just want to create a court and integrate it to XKT Mod to practice or directly to play with world tour as I made before.The situation is now more complicated compared as before for create courts according to what I see.

If you put your Mod in the XKT folder, it'll get deleted when you update the XKT Mod, so you should have your own Mod on top of the XKT. It's not complicated to do that.

You asked me by PM this, which is absolutely not private :
wilddog79 wrote:Would it be possible you can share some kind of tutorial to create a court and integrate it to XKT Mod, I ask you because I don't want waste your time with many questions. I created many courts before with an older XKT, but with new updates I think it has changed the way to create courts as i made before.

I'm not going to write a tutorial for a Mod that I didn't create, especially as you noted that it can change anytime out of my control.

Sorry, I really don't have the time or energy or the will to look into how XKT works for you.

I even don't even know what your issue is : everything was fine for me (when added to the base game, without the XKT).

Anyway, if you want to change the surface textures, read the point 1) & 2) here : topic60-34019.php .

And more info here about 2D courts : topic60-33904.php .
