I am looking to have the next update out by next Sunday. I'm out today so will add the finishing touches next Friday/Saturday (depending what the world throws at me in terms of real life). Just a taste of what to expect...

Here's another one. I've no ideas for the last one so going to see if someone else has any ideas.

Here are 3 of them... 150x150 png in case you want someone to make you gif versions (I hate doing them).

No, stupidly I forgot to keep a record of what I had done. It's not a huge loss though as I think starting again with all the broadcasters and venues working properly will make the next playthrough more fun. I've now just added the 407th Broadcaster and implemented the 190th Broadcaster change... This is becoming a new Lucha Libre rabbit hole!!

With regards to Broadcasters, I highly recommend people DO NOT do a full import into a saved game when this is released as it is likely to mess up peoples saved games. There have been name changes, companies added that then change their name to companies already in the previous data at a later time so it's going to be a bit of a mess just importing (I mean you could do but the disclaimer here is, you do run a very big risk of duplicate stations such as Orange (who were already in the original file as The Box in New Zealand) and Broadcaster changes not being able to be imported properly. I know it's annoying but in order to make the Broadcasting feature more prominent and useful, I've had to do a lot of work to the original file that had not been in my original plans. (I have literally had to start my 2 year WWF save from the start because I imported everything without thinking). Venues shouldn't be much of a problem and can be imported.

Thanks both for the ideas. I had wondered about the Fairgrounds as I saw ECW and a couple of other companies had held events at various Fairgrounds in the US so will continue adding them as I find them. I will add a few minor league baseball parks then and keep the MLB ones off the mod. I managed to get a couple of the ones GFW ran under Jarrett but I think most of these are more modern parks that will open later in the mod. I am nearly at 400 broadcasters with the broadcaster changes tab at around 125 changes to various broadcasters who changed name, logo, expanded into new areas or lost slots in areas through the years. I'm also working on era specific logos for broadcasters that change as you play through but that may be a work in progress. I've probably doubled the number of European options to the game, but a lot of these will only show companies from their home region (or Europe as a whole) because I hate seeing WWF appear on a tiny Scandanavian only broadcaster when they wouldn't have the financial muscle to pull a company of that size onto their tiny network. There are also broadcasters like JSTV who showed Japanese shows in Europe so to keep in line with that, the channel will only accept Japanese based companies (2 at most) onto it's network. Whether this works as my brain thinks it should has yet to be tested!

Thank you. Glad you are enjoying it. As seems to always be the case - the "small update" has turned into something a little bigger as I'm adding in SkyCrashers fixes and additions before returning to venue research. Don't worry though, this mod may go through a quiet spell for a bit, but things are still going on in the background as my brain never switches off from what I can do next to improve it when I'm on TEW. North American residents of the board, I'm in need of your advice and assistance. With Europe and UK I am not using football stadiums from here as they would not really allow their pitch to be used during the season and never have done in the past (Wembley the exception), but would baseball teams etc... allow their stadiums to be used for wrestling events in the US? I know a few of the bigger football stadiums over there are used for events such as Wrestlemania, Summerslam etc... but outside of those stadiums that have already been used, should I add others that have not been? I'm trying to add venues that have either been used or would realistically be used.

The png in case you want a different background or if you want it in the gif format.

I've been around since 2005. Like some others I was at the .400 studios before and played EWR before that. To give you a real sense of time... I was on the RaveX modding team! 😆

Any use to you?

I spent this morning researching and adding a few new venues/broadcasters (along with some other fixes that were going to wait until the new year but may as well get them done now). Below is what I have done so far. I still don't know when I will have the artistically named "version 2.5b" out but as you can see, I'm starting to make some headway! One thing to note, I will not be adding any British football grounds to the game (except obviously Wembley). The reason for this is realistically, no club would allow their pitch to be used during the football season for things other than football (well, maybe Rugby for those few teams who ground share with a rugby team).

The copyright names in Mexico are an absolute nightmare. I think I did the same as you for the most part but finding pics of some of the guys is damn near impossible in earlier gimmicks. Feel free to dip into my picture pack if you need to because we tidied up a bunch of Lucha pics to use. I'm really liking the mod so far, its a time where I've often wondered "what if" scenarios, even just fun ones that never realistically could have happened.

Further Update on the 1992 mod. Although I am not going to release a huge update in terms of workers, I did feel the mod is lacking in Broadcasters and Venues. As such, I will be releasing a smaller update at some point addressing this issue and adding more options for these areas. Hopefully this should improve the mod, and stop so many companies going out of business due to not being able to get on TV/PPV. I do not have a date for this release, however I imagine it won't be too long. The good thing is, if you've already started a game, you can just import these parts into your saved game without having to start again.

I am teaming Crush up with Animal in a new Road Warriors type team following Hawks departure in my 1992 save. I threw this together quickly for it. 😁

I'm happy for anyone who wants to do expansion packs for Diablo X to do them. The mod originally started out as a standalone that would get "DLC" over time but in the end I just decided to amalgamate all of it into 1. I don't use the GIF version of pictures as I'm not a fan of them - again though, if someone wanted create them, they are more than welcome.

December 1992 WWF Heavyweight: Bret "Hitman" Hart (defeated Ric Flair) WWF Intercontinental: Mr. Perfect (defeated British Bulldog) WWF World Tag Team: Beverly Brothers (defeated Natural Disasters) WWF Women's: Misty Blue (defeated Jacqueline)

Definitely a false flag. There is no Trojan virus (or any virus) in the file. 🙂

Someone did this one (sorry I have forgotten who created it though to give credit). It's the only TCW/AEW cross I've seen. EDIT: I lied, there is also the one Arlovski did below;

I have updated the first post with these new links. Thanks for taking the time to do this, I know it was quite a big update this time around!

I use https://dream.ai/create for realistic looking free workers in my worker pack. It is free, but does have paid options so you can do more than 1 at a time (and other perks).

GIF version is 1 release behind.

Drew in a group with the word Celtic when he is a huge Rangers fan is kinda funny but... I only have this one. I don't use gif so if someone wants to make it into the gif style feel free.

Someone did but I can't seem to find the thread to link you to it.

Yes. I have a new pack released with around 600 regen real world photos that were created using AI.

Few more. Not sure whether to redo my Diablo X picture pack like this or whether to do a new mod... Balrog Jin Kazama Shang Tsung Raiden Bit of GTA love.... Claude, Tommy Vercetti & Carl Johnson
