Maybe give something back to the community instead of just moaning. I'm open to everyone's comments in that thread and I'm receptive to ideas, yes it's not perfect (certainly not biased) - there's one person pretty much working on it so it's going to have issues and things that need to be fixed. I have absolutely no problem with you coming in and saying "hey guy A would be better suited to having XYZ stats" but I do take issue with you going into another thread and shitting over the hours I've put into the mod. Instead of moaning that there isn't a difficult enough mod, try giving constructive criticism. I think most people who have actually helped in that thread would agree for the majority I am very willing to change stats that seem too high. For the record, Cody Hall is a Heavyweight in the latest data released - because someone pointed it out in the thread - shocking how feedback makes it's way into the mod isn't it.<p> </p><p> Feel free to give some constructive criticism in my thread - or create your own mod the way you like it. 2 simple solutions to your issue.</p><p> </p><p> EDIT - reading this again I've got to call bull on something, you say "The Naturals Tag Team", well Andy Douglas isn't even in the data, Chris Masters has a D+ in brawling not B-, Colt Cabana has C+ average technical skills not the B+ you're claiming, Alex Shelley doesn't have A's in Basics and consistency he has C + basics and B Consistency, Brian Kendricks stats make him what he is, a solid worker, nothing more and as for all the other "stats" they reflect the worker as being average-good which all of those listed are (exception - Jimmy Jacobs stats now edited down) so god knows what you're playing if your data has stats that don't match the ones in my data! It's like you've plucked them out of thin air (or playing a wildly outdated set I never knew existed).</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> You are right. I have the Capt. Charisma mod. Wasn't trying to crap on your mod at all actually. Just stating what I saw in the mod I had just DLed. Sorry to get the two mixed up and sorry to offend you.</p><p> </p><p> I was asking an opinion in the first place and then replied in a way that could be taken wrong and again I am sorry to offend you. The reason I had asked is because these files are large and I don't want to download 20 of them looking for the one that suits my needs is all.</p>

I mean John Hennigan, Brian Kendrick and Elijah Burke (you haven't named anyone, but these are three guys I usually try to sign so I'm just using them as an example) are all free agents but have proven they deserve the grades handed to them; you can't dumb them down just because they're free agents. Perhaps go to the <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525317" rel="external nofollow">"Give Me Rules For A Game" Thread</a> and ask for some rules to increase the difficulty of your game?

    These two are good. That Anders Thunder one makes me want to push the guy.

    Also, might I suggest this version of jtlant's Carl Batch as Curtis, their manager?

    That is awesome! Love those.

  8. These aren't re-renders but I figured they could be used in the C-Verse as you wish.

    Different eras of Sting that I created when I was bored this morning. I hope they are used and enjoyed!

    MJ, check your PM's for the backgroundless ones.

     

    Thanks Enforcer, this has really sparked a new interest of mine and you'll see a lot more of my work soon.

     

    Then there was this guy...

    I think I'm done for the day, lol. Hope everyone enjoys.

     

    I love these so much! These guys would get monster pushes in my CVerse.

  9. We're really going to have to disagree on that front then, even when he debuted I called him as a future world champion. And if being soft means he didn't have star quality then I hope you're in the same camp as I am in saying that Mick Foley became a huge star despite his lack of star quality... because he had huge charisma instead. The Rock lacked in charisma to start with, just because he was a rookie, but he developed it and became one of the best. But in terms of star quality I'm fairly surprised that anyone could take a look at young Rocky and say he didn't look like a potential star. Cos despite the haircut, he always looked like one to me. :)

     

    Mind you, I've said that about quite a few people in the past. Randy Orton I had pegged as a star the first time I saw him, likewise for Batista (but not Cena for some reason)... Cody Rhodes is still someone I see as a champion one day... Elijah Burke/D'Angelo Dinero is someone who oozes star quality AND charisma... when I first saw Skip Sheffield on NXT I said it, and Ryback is now huge (but not as strong for charisma)...

     

    And I'm rambling a bit. My only point is, that in terms of real world mods it's hard to call but for most folks it's always there to a degree and needs nurtured. Daniel Bryan is an excellent example of a modren guy with fairly low star quality who has gotten over on talent and developed his charisma a LOT in recent years. But star quality doesn't work like that, it's pretty fixed barring a dramatic change. So if I were modding (I'm not here, obviously :p) guys like Nicky Champion in 2005 I'd have him with maybe 80% of his TEW13 value and let him grow into the rest of it as he develops. Fog Of War would do the rest of the work as Tom begins to look increasingly like a future star and eventually becomes Nicky Champion. Maybe. :)

     

    Look at both of those pictures and Rock looks like any other indy wrestler who is in halfway decent shape. I'd argue some guys have it more than that goofy looking guy.

     

    I am a Rock fan but I never saw it until he got on the microphone.

     

    Randy Orton, Batista, and John Cena I thought would be stars one day. I don't and never saw it in Ryback. I don't see it in Goldberg either though but I do see menace, and a perfect character/push for them.

     

    Brock Lesnar is a guy who I thought could have been bigger than anyone in the history of pro wrestling but he sort of ruined that when he quit. I still think he could be but he would need to be full time and have a great manager (Heyman qualifies).

     

    I agree Foley got over because of luck, smarts, and because he was charismatic.

     

    These 2 links show that Rock didn't look like a star... in my eyes at least.

  10. There are always judgement calls, but Rocky Maivia always looked like a star. He had the heritage, he had the look and the athleticism... even at his debut he clearly had that star quality about him. He just wasn't a star yet. Don't get star quality and popularity/overness confused, that's a mod making nightmate right there. :p

     

    But as for the matter at hand... it's important to know in advance how you are doing things. With 2005 you can either make it "the Cornellverse as it shipped with TEW05" or "the TEW13 database rewound to 2005". Either way can work, as long as you are consistent with it throughout the mod. Personally, I'd prefer the second option (which probably requires more work, admittedly) as it would reflect better with the current data and is scaled better to the way that TEW works now instead of the way TEW worker back then, but either one will be fun to play so it's modders choice. :)

     

    Upon his debut he did not have star quality. His physique was soft (squishy), and he showed no signs of anything fantastic at that point really. Heritage doesn't = star quality. For mod purposes yes he had it but if you rewind to back then nobody thought he was going to be a star. It wasn't until his Nation of Domination days that people picked up on it.

  11. yah, not like that crappy goofy looking spinner that was really for Cena only, but it was cool when Edge customized it for his Rated-R reign. I'm surprised for as long as Punk held it, he didn't think of throwing away that crappy title and getting one to look like Rock's new title, then again he probably wouldn't get the fans behind him to keep it around. They went crazy when Rock announced the new title haha!

     

    According to him on Colt Cabanas radio show he actually wanted to go back to the Eagle WWE Belt around the time Cody Rhodes brought back the old IC Title. So sounds like Punk did want to change the belt but was met with resistance to me.
