As per the FAQ, licensing questions / issues should be sent to Scott rather than posted here. Make sure to include which type of license you are using when mailing him. It'd probably also help him if you tell him exactly what steps you have followed thus far.

No, it would mean that the cause is something that doesn't fall under the category of road agent notes and so isn't meant to be shown. If you send me a save game where there's a show booked and ready to run, following the instructions in the technical support forum, I will trace the drop for you.

That depends on if you're an Elicense or QLM license user; the FAQ explains how to tell the difference. If you're an Elicense user and you're getting that error then it suggests that you're trying to use it as an installer, which it isn't, it's a replacement file. The patch thread where you downloaded it explains how to apply the patch correctly.

That would almost certainly be your antivirus blocking it. You'd need to whitelist / make safe the file. You should also check your DEP settings as per the FAQ and make sure you're launching the game in admin mode.

Have you read the FAQ and understood the difference between Elicense and QLM licenses? You sound like you're trying to install the wrong patch.

There's not a ceiling but it will obviously have some level of effect.

Assuming your using the latest patch, I'd recommend you recheck the dirt sheet and the notes section; it's virtually impossible to get that big of a drop without a penalty being applied, and that'd be listed in those places.

It tells you what language are spoken on-screen when viewing a region.

That's a Windows error rather than a TEW error. I'd suggest you try restarting your PC, as sometimes that can be caused if you've got a Windows update that hasn't fully completed its install. If that doesn't clear it, try uninstalling and reinstalling to refresh your files (making sure to move any save games or other content that you want to keep somewhere safe first, obviously).

Try the attached file. Your 3421 error was because the database was full of corrupt and illegal data caused by editing outside of the game editor. Whoever was doing so, presumably whoever you were importing data from, had made a whole bunch of silly errors - your broadcasting slots file, for example, was full of data relating to training camps because they'd sloppily copy and pasted into the wrong place (I've had to remove all of that data, you'll need to redo that part of the file), and they'd also forgotten to remove the extra tables that they'd added too. I've done my best to remove all the damage. To underline, people shouldn't be editing outside of the editor because they skip all of the error checking that the game provides. I can't recreate your 3197 error, but it is more than likely due to all the damage that was there, so removing it may help you. WMMA5_II.zip

If you attach the zipped save file (leaving out the subfolders) I'll take a look when I next have some free time.

1 - What size is the save game file (TEW2020.mdb)? Right-click on it and select Properties to find out. 2 - How much free hard drive space do you have? 3 - Is this affecting every save game you're playing or just that specific one? 4 - Is it happening at the exact same point every time? i.e. you can't advance that save game at all.

The difference is simply their schedule. There's no advantage or disadvantage, they're just different.

The only difference between the list and the dropdowns is that the latter is filtered by your search parameters; you must have at least one setting that is causing those workers to be excluded.

You should check the Absences screen. If they're not there, reset your filters so that everyone is being shown. It might also be worth clarifying what your issue actually is as your first paragraph contradicts itself - you say they're not in the booking screen but then say that they are in the drop down menus; both can't be true. If they still don't appear then you've likely got illegal data - your second paragraph seems very odd, as you say you've edited them to become wrestlers but that's not something you can edit in a live game. If you've done it via an external editor then you will have skipped any error checking and have likely introduced issues that prevent them from being shown.

Not unless pay matching is part of their contract terms.

The only way that could happen is if you've put the WWMA5 skin files into TEW's, which is only possible if you either installed them into the same place or manually copied and pasted them together. The games must be kept separate. I'd suggest you uninstall both and reinstall them, making sure they're going into different destinations.

This can be an issue for some people whose computers do not use English as its base language. The easiest way to solve this is to change the language for non-unicode programs to English within Windows. The way to do this differs slightly depending on what version of Windows you are running, but it is usually found in Control Panel -> Region and Languages and then either under Administrative or Advanced. You should restart your machine after making the change.

That's already in - it's the Wrestling In The Blood attribute.

If you unlicense and relicense, as outlined in the FAQ pinned to the top of the technical support forum, that should fix it. In the unlikely event that it doesn't, alter your DEP settings as outlined in the same place and see if that works. If that all fails, mail Scott. His address is also in the same place.

If they're Lesser shows then you're eliminating the ability for your more popular workers to appear on them. If you've got a very top-heavy roster full of stars then you're potentially not leaving yourself with enough people to actually work the show. The fact that you can run tour shows, which don't have that restriction, would back this up.

It's 10. If you've got more than that and they're cancelling shows it's because they can't book even the minimum number of matches, which suggests that either you've accidentally screwed up the event settings (e.g. making it an a women's only event when you don't have any) or the wrestlers' contracts prohibit them from working on a show of that nature.

It's not one of my games, but are you sure you've downloaded the right version? If you've just bought the game then you should have one of the new QLM / FastSpring licenses (which are 25 characters long, in groups of 5 separated by hyphens) and therefore need to download and play the QLM / Fastspring version of the game. Your screen shot shows that you're trying to use the old Elicense version of the game, which you can only use if you have one of the old-style Elicenses (which usually begin with "VT-").

Stop being mean-spirited, Jaysin. If you don't like what overthetop2 posts, put him on your ignore list, don't keep trying to bait him into a fight.

No. It's being literal. A small boost to charisma means you get a small amount added to it. So instead of being 50, it might be considered to be 54 for calculations instead.
