    Very awesome mod, I hope to download it soon.

    I mean to ask though, I thought of making a fighting game mod but does this pretty much cover the bases?

    There's definitely a good bit of fighting-game stuff featured in the mod, a decent chunk more in my version than in the version that Crayon left off on when he last updated it a long, long time ago. Mostly in terms of workers - in terms of promotions, there's a couple of Street Fighter promotions, a general promotion in Europe that features characters from several fighting game franchises, and there's a little bit of that FG influence in a couple other promotions.

    I plan on adding more in terms of that genre's features, since fighting games are my favorite genre of video games.

    Hi i have the june 2023 GIF mod with SAMPP installed but new workers doesnt generate unless i tick off the picture requirements settings. I have free pictures in the picture folders so i dont understand why it is happening. Could anyone help me?Thank you

    The 'Free Pictures' records in the data are probably connected to the JPG versions of the pictures instead of GIFs. IIRC that happened with me once or twice using this mod, surprised it hasn't been fixed.

    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.

    Thanks for responding, I was considering doing my own Diablo X 'expansion pack', which was why I asked to begin with, so it's good to get the creator's approval.

  4. Fleisch, would you be open to the idea of Diablo X having its own 'expansion pack' in a similar line to how Real World Chronicles eventually got RWC+, in which someone (with your permission) provided additional workers, companies, etc., that can be imported into the database?

    Also, have you considered potentially doing a GIF version of the Diablo X picture pack?

    Very nice, glad to get an update!

    I've had this nagging question in my mind, but I've tried to look up some of the names in SICK before and they come up with nothing. They're not listed as OCs like all of the original characters are. So I'm just super curious what the source material is.

    ngl I feel like eventually I'm just gonna phase out most if not all the companies dominated by OCs and other unknown characters, especially if I evolve the mod from being the 9000verse to something of a whole 'nother beast. Considering most if not all of us have no clue how they came to be or how they were meant to evolve, since Crayon, the OG creator of the mod, has long since disappeared, there's no real way to deal with them outside of just figuring things out.

    I won't delete them outright, though.

  6. VERSION 1.4 AVAILABLE

    Figured I've done more than enough for now, especially since it's been a long while since the last update was made available.

    DATA
    PICTURES

    Outdated version - refer to first post for an updated version

    FIXING ODD THINGS

    • Xiahou Yuan was Japanese instead of Chinese for some reason
    • Chris (the KoF one) was not active in Europe despite residing within it
    • Felt like Lien Neville deserved a bit of actual menace given her profession
    • Properly deduped several shared-name characters to remove parenthesis/other slightly distracting subtitles and mend my OCD, using accented letters that are compatible with this game's programming (meaning I managed to figure out how to have Black Lagoon's Hänsel and Gretël go on without their 'of Romania' subtitles)
    • Juri Han now resides in Japan's Kanto region (she was in the US South West for some reason, I dunno why I set her there)
    • Continued filling in rosters to reduce the amount of hirings you'll see at the start of a save (FnQ for the love of god please don't go ham)
    • Continued adjusting active areas/area popularity of workers and personalities
    • Trimmed down the Gimmick Ideas list to remove what are basically duplicates due to how they changed gimmicks going from earlier games to TEW2020
    • Changed RCW's main broadcaster deal now that I discovered there's a broadcaster directly owned by RCW
    • Some events had their names or other details changed
    • Soul Eater Combat's product changed to something slightly more befitting the 'fast-paced hardcore' concept described in the company's description

    FRESH ADDITIONS

    • More training facitiy graduations incorporated
    • Continued addition of free-pictures into the in-game database
    • 200+ new pictures in the pictures folder, consisting of some new characters currently in the worker list, a few more alternate/ager pictures for those who have been in the database for a while (some already implemented), and plenty for characters that might show up in future updates
    • More tag teams added, mainly based on relationships from source material (mostly KoF stuff unsurprisingly) - also mostly 'individual' teams with low experience for you to build up if you want to
    • More events incorporated (TOUHOU in particular became a subject of me experimenting with the ability to have the event schedule evolve over time)
    • More for the title lineages (including a couple new titles for some promotions)
    • Slightly more title pictures incorporated (could use some help putting together proper title belts)


    NEW CHARACTERS (total count is now 3800 workers):
    Killer Instinct: Jago, Black Orchid, Fulgore, Cinder, Baron Konrad von Sabrewulf, Chief Thunder, Spinal,
    King of Fighters: Krizalid, Krohnen McDougall, Gang-il, Mui Mui, Love Heart, Alice Garnet Nakata, Xanadu, Zarina, Bandeiras Hattori, Nelson
    Fatal Fury/Garou: Freeman, Hwa Jai
    Samurai Shodown: Kazuki Kazama, Sogetsu Kazama, Shizumaru Hisame, Galford D. Weiler, Hanzo Hattori, Cham Cham, Tam Tam, Charlotte Christine de Colde
    BlazBlue: Yuuki Terumi, Amane Nishiki, Celica A. Mercury, Ex Machina: Minerva, Linhua, Naoto Kurogane
    Street Fighter: Laura Matsuda, F.A.N.G, Necalli, Rashid, G
    Dynasty Warriors: Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Dian Wei
    Samurai Warriors: Mitsuhide Akechi, Ranmaru Mori, Tadakatsu Honda
    Tekken: Michelle Chang, Claudio Serafino, Lucky Chloe, Leroy Smith, Kazumi Mishima, Josie Rizal, Katarina Alves, Shaheen
    RWBY: Neo Politan

    I'm a bit gutted about the Marty Scurll thing. I genuinely didn't know. I used to watch Progress wrestling before it lost it's way, and he was magnificent in it. I had big plans for Villain Enterprises, with him as their leader, and have already run the show. Obviously, in light of this, something has to change. 

    As I see it, there's 3 ways of handling this. I'll let you fine readers choose which path we take. Either:

    1. I just write Scurll out of the show as if it never happened, as if he never existed.

    2. Scurll shows up for a show or two and Russia happens to him. I have my fun, then bye bye Marty. Let's see what my sleep-deprived, alcohol-enlightened brain can come up with.

    3. We carry on regardless. In real life it seems Scurll can only get booked in remote, far-away places. It could be feasible for this tarnished sex-pest to end up on a show in somewhere like Russia. It would be similar to how many historical diaries handle Chris Benoit.

    Let me know which way you'd like this to go, by replying to this, and I'll write accordingly. I've always been keen on the readers of this diary being involved in shaping it's direction. Can't think of a better time for interaction than this.

    Option 2 seems like it'd be the one most viable for hijinks (especially at Marty's expense) so I'll go with that.

    Is there specific companies you're looking for event names for? Or are you just looking in general?

    I'm in no rush to get new ideas, I've already filled out a few event schedules.

    It's mainly the companies that don't really have a gimmick to them and/or are mostly original characters that I have no clue on the lore of, like CcW and MaxAlt.

  9. May checkup

    All the big big updates I wanted to do for 1.4 were done (namely just evening out the worker list to a hefty 3800), so the update I imagine I'll upload at some point this month, for now I'm just doing some little touches to event schedules, broadcasting deals, some more attribute checkups, plus I figured out that accented letters can help with dealing with characters that share a name, so I no longer have to worry about 'of ___' subtitles on certain characters.

    Again, I'm very open for help on:

    • Creating new title pictures for each unique promotion
    • Ideas for event names
    • Filling out title lineages
    • Attributes on workers that I haven't yet touched up
    • Misc. stuff

    I don't know how guys like Fleisch and Questlove do it - then again, neither of those guys are working on updating a database that's a decade behind on a lot of stuff.

    Wish me luck for the future of this database. Hopefully I eventually find time to do an actual playthrough with it.

    Few more. Not sure whether to redo my Diablo X picture pack like this or whether to do a new mod...

    I think doing it for the new mod would work out better, make it stand out.

  11. I started a 2010 WWE save in the 'The Game Changes Now' mod, and for the first few months, I mainly followed how IRL WWE was doing upwards to WrestleMania, but with a few liberties taken:

    • Sheamus keeps the WWE Championship through to WrestleMania where he dropped it to Cena (narratively, it kinda works out given how Sheamus first won the WWE title) - also this match represented the Bret vs. Vince feud as well because I was not risking having a retired man in his 50s and a usually non-wrestler in his 60s wrestle a match given TEW's way of working.
    • Edge vs. Jericho played out basically how it did IRL with Edge winning the Rumble and Jericho dethroning Undertaker at the Chamber due to HBK shenanigans, but in this version, Edge wins the belt at Mania.
    • The ECW brand continued all the way to WrestleMania instead of being closed in February, where Christian eventually dropped the belt to Rob Van Dam (who was a free agent in January 2010 IRL, wouldn't have joined TNA until March) in the final swansong before transitioning the 3rd brand into NXT, which I immediately made closer to its 2012-onwards version and not the experimental contest show it actually started off as.
    • Both Women's titles actually had proper title defenses at Mania in this save instead of that weird cluster of a tag match the division was slapped together into in the real WrestleMania. Mickie James is reigning currently as the Women's Champion, though she's got a bit of an unstable edge to her character resulting from her LayCool feud along with a bit of beef with Beth Phoenix, while Maryse's reign is somewhat similar to how it was for real, but with 70% more Miz involvement since they're dating by this point.
    • The Miz wins Money in the Bank here instead of Jack Swagger, while also holding onto the US title. As for who the tag champs are instead of ShowMiz...
    • CM Punk and Luke Gallows of the Straight Edge Society won the tag titles off DX at the Elimination Chamber, giving the stable a bit of forward momentum for the future.
    • Mysterio and Batista's feud was stretched out slightly more so that it could blow off at Mania, just because I feel like it was probably worth a finale at the grandest stage.
    • The Legacy triple-threat IRL instead turned into Cody specifically getting ousted from Legacy, and then losing to Orton due to shenanigans before being saved by his family. Legacy is basically dead either way, with DiBiase and Orton just sort of moving on to their own stuff.
    • As for HBK vs. Undertaker - yeah it basically played out similarly to real life, but HBK's retirement is a bit more understated in my version because while I plan on him being retired for a good bit (especially since he's now currently NXT's general manager in my save, akin to his position right now in 2023), I might have him come out of retirement once or twice to put over some talent, but that may not be for a while.

    As for post-Mania, yeah, that's where things will really start to divert from reality - or at least it already has, but I'll probably discuss that part of the save another time once I get a few more months deep.

    Hey man, any idea how long it usually takes between updates? 

    Also I thought of Streets of Rage too, you can get a lot of characters from that. 

    Just don't want to get too into a new update and then a newer one comes out aha

    The gap between the past couple updates was a little over two months, but I'm probably gonna take a little longer since I don't really have any hobbies that are bigger priorities over others. Depends on whether or not the next update will be 1.4 with more fixes and some additions, or if I'll just jump up to 2.0 with some more substantial changes.

    As for Streets of Rage characters - yeah I see myself adding some characters from there sooner or later.

    No problem. I love the idea of this mod getting an update, 

    Just thinking Power Rangers because there would be so many. Shenmue has that cult following. 

    Newer Fighting game characters?

     

    As a big fighting-game fan, it's safe to expect me to keep adding onto the database with characters and other things from that genre - which means yes, expect newer characters to be added in over time.
