Hope everything is alright with your grandfather!

Unless you are trying to show a squash match, why wouldn't you use Open Match? Does it limit the more over wrestler's momentum at all? Is there ever a time to just run a "normal" match?

This is probably a TEW 2020 problem and not a Risky Business problem, but I'm running with a converted 2016 Risky Business save and in 86 my popularity raised enough to go to "National" but lowered back down to "Cult" a few months later. However, all of my wrestler's "statuses" are still being reflected by the international status, for example when I was "Cult" status Hogan was a Major Star, when I went National he became just a star, but now it's back at Cult he's still just a Star. The game is also making me lose popularity accordingly and giving me poor ratings for 70ish show ratings when before such a rating would raise my status...

Yeah... that sounds frustrating

Jaysin, is there anything I can do to help out? Even if it's not just for "current" 1985 era stars, I don't mind helping. I'm pretty familiar with even indie stars in the 2000's

So basically creating a Child Company feature was taken away in TEW 2020? That's not great...

Auto-hire for child companies? Hey guys... so I created a child company, assigned a CEO and booker, but they don't appear to be hiring anyone automatically... how do I get them to hire some people? The UI is really non-intuitive (for me anyways) and stuff is sometimes deeply buried so I'm probably just overlooking it, but I don't see the option to make sure they are a "Child Company" vs a "Development Territory" a la TEW 2016

Jokes aside, I really hope you didn't. I really enjoy the "what if" scenarios that playing old databases offer, it's the whole point I play them Even if I don't recruit certain people, I enjoy seeing what they do in other territories.

Looking forward to this!

I'm in no way rushing Jaysin because I'd much rather this mod be excellent than rushed and buggy, and I know you said you don't have an ETA, but do you have a rough guess at least when you think the mod may be ready? Next week? Next Month? Next year? I ask because I'm honestly waiting for this mod to hit before purchasing the game, and if Jaysin expects it's going to be awhile, I may start with another mod. I just didn't want to get heavily involved in a mod for a few days and then this one comes out lol.
