Part 3: Step-by-Step – How to Edit a Roster

Assuming you have downloaded RED MC and extracted it to your NBA 2K14 root folder, here is how to change Damian Lillard from a 79 overall rookie into a 96 overall MVP.

Step 1: Locate the Roster File

• In NBA 2K14 (PC), navigate to Options > Manage Roster > Save Roster. Name it EDIT_ME.ROS.
• Close NBA 2K14.
• Go to C:\Users\[YourName]\AppData\Roaming\2K Sports\NBA 2K14\Saves\.

Step 2: Open RED MC

• Launch RED_MC.exe.
• Click File > Open > NBA 2K14 > Roster.
• Select EDIT_ME.ROS.

Step 3: Find Your Player

• RED MC will load a massive database. Navigate to the "Players" tab.
• You will see a list of 4,000+ players (including Euroleague, classic teams, and hidden free agents).
• Search for "Lillard."

Step 4: Edit the Attributes

• You will see columns for everything: SHOT_3PT, SPEED, QUICKNESS, HANDS, DUNK.
• Change his POTENTIAL to 99.
• Scroll right to the Tendencies section. Change TOUCH (how often he shoots) to 99.
• Change his PRIMARY_POSITION from PG to PG/SG.

Step 5: Save and Inject

• Click Save As. Overwrite EDIT_ME.ROS.
• Crucial step: Click "Apply Cyberfaces" if you changed a player model. Click "Apply Shoes" if you changed footwear. Without this, the game crashes.

Step 6: Load in Game

• Re-open NBA 2K14. Load the EDIT_ME roster. Your Lillard is now a god.

3. Modding via the "Modding Way" and NLSC

While not strictly "roster editors," any discussion of roster updates for NBA 2K14 must include graphic modding.

• Cyberfaces: Roster editors can assign specific "Cyberface IDs" to players. To make the roster look modern, modders create 3D models of players (e.g., Victor Wembanyama, Anthony Edwards) and import them into the game folder.
• Uniforms and Courts: To fully update a roster from 2013 to 2024, the roster editor must be used in conjunction with file replacements in the game directory to update logos, jerseys, and court floors.

4.2 Realism & Modernization

Even after official updates ceased, modders released “2025 Roster Updates” using the editor to transfer current NBA lineups (e.g., Victor Wembanyama to Spurs) into NBA 2K14, alongside realistic contracts and playbooks. nba 2k14 roster editor
