  1. <p>If you need any help, just ask. I've made mods of the C-Verse before (CV2001, which I might put out for TEW2016) and I'm fairly knowledgeable about the 70s CV mods. Personally I preferred CV75 to CV77, as in CV75 the territories are still strong, but in CV77 you can start to see SWF beginning their death by a 1000 cuts campaign start to take effect. </p><p> </p><p> Anyway, I've got all the renders from original release of that 70's mod (or at least I think I do), so if you're missing any ask me if I've got them and I'll see what I can come up with.</p><p> </p><p> Today I might look at the renders for CV70s characters and see if I can make any edits that might make them look better or be nice as alts. But that said, CV70s had/has some AWESOME renders; whoever did the Japanese Joshis in particular did an awesome job.</p>

  3. <p><strong>IPW</strong>: They based in the South West, and have got 2.5 million in the coffers. When they run in the South West, they have to run up against GSW and CZCW and even AAA, and mostly get hammered by at least AAA and CZCW unless you bring in ringers as your main eventers. </p><p> </p><p> So, I'm thinking if I'm playing as them, should I just not take that 2.5 million and use it to run another area like the Great Lakes instead? You'll take an inital loss but surely getting out of the South Great 4 way pull for fans would pay off in the long run, right? </p><p> </p><p> Also, IPW is a promotion where you have to have a minimum amount of attractive females on it. While one could hire a bunch of managers to meet that threshold, another interesting way to go could be starting a womens' division. I tried that but the owner wasn't for it: Do owners views on things like womens' wrestling stay static or is it a dice roll?</p>
  4. If you ever want some to bounce some ideas off or anything like that, feel free to PM me. I really enjoyed the layout of WOTI4 and I'm looking forward to WOTI5.
  5. <p>I haven't played as NOTBPW yet but I plan to: Long term, what's the deal with their TV deal? Is that one the player should stick with or try to change? </p><p> </p><p> Normally I play regional indies so I've never been great knowing what to do with TV deals.</p>

I think it's safe to say that guys such as Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio Jr., Chris Jericho and AJ Styles never brought down locker room morale for sharing their faith.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Mhhh, </p><p> Not <em>strictly</em> true. </p><p> </p><p> Matt Striker sort of complained on one of his shoot DVDs (youshoot maybe) that for a while there was a fad in the WWE locker room of bringing in bibles and participating in group prayer after Eddie Guerrero started doing it. Striker was fairly cynical about it and said he felt a few guys got in on the act trying to suck up to Guerrero and Benoit. </p><p> </p><p> Secondly, AJ Styles' faith once caused an unintended incident in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. It was either 2005 or 2006, and PWG was holding a tournament. The finals were Chris Bosh vs AJ Styles, and Bosh won. What happened next was awkward for all involved: Chris Bosh started doing a promo parody of Austin's 3:16 promo. The joke was that Austin 3:16 was cut when Austin won the King of the Ring in 1996, and now 10 years later Bosh was doing his own version. </p><p> </p><p> Wwwweeeeeelllll, whether it was the heat of the moment, being exhausted from his match, just plum forgetting AJ Styles gets super-<strong>hot.</strong> Like I WILL FIGHT YOU FOR REAL hot, in the ring. Maybe it was the crowd laughing that got at him (thinking they were laughing at him (Styles), not the joke. Styles thought Bosh was mocking his faith for real in an unplanned shoot, and proceeded to grab the microphone and lamast Bosh before walking off, leaving the crowd a bit stunned and in silence, and putting a bit of a wet blanket on the show. </p><p> </p><p> Look, I'm a Christian myself, but is it strictly true to stay Eddie and Styles' faith never caused a hiccup? No, if I'm being honest.</p>

  8. Well it's all well and good saying that but I've no problems getting people over in performance or half and half promotions but in pop based feds not only are most of my roster standing dead still on gains, I've had guys LOSE popularity working squashes matches where I had them set to dominate, much to my chagrin. Edit: Okay I've double checked and one of my guys have did make slight gains, but in general still not so much. And when you say storylines, do you mean angles or storylines? Because while I do use the angle often I don't use the storylines function as much. Edit: Also, another thing. Let's say Worker 1 has D+ pop, and worker 2 has D- pop. No one else in my promotion is as popular as worker 1 and I don't want to bring in popular guys to job to worker 2. So in a pop promotion how to I get worker 2 on an equal par with worker 1?
  9. How do people get over in promotions based more on pop than performance that don't have TV? For some reason PWSUX is pop heavy, despite the template for "Hardcore Revolution" being a split of pop/performance. Anyway: How do I increase the popularity of workers in promotions with no tv but are more pop based? Is it angles? Do I have spam menace angles? Do I have to job my up and comers to "stars" a million times? F'N magnets pop-promotions without tv, how do they work? I've got major deja vu asking this question.
  10. I'm playing as PSW and Mitch Naess somehow died at the age of 40. Genghis Rahn has stepped in and taken over the company, surely vowing to keep Hardcore wrestling alive.
  11. @Bull I'm liking the new tweaks to your lighting going on, the hair and the shades on your Naizen Uboshita looks really good.
  12. "There were not enough attractive women on your show" Do the women have to be in angles or is leading the men to the ring enough?
  13. I simmed a C-Verse game out to October of 2017 Valient, Nicky Champion, Giant Khoklov, Remo, Tyson Baine as the Demon from the Deep and Ana Garcia have all been lured to Mexico by SOTBPW. Tyson Baine debuted as a surprise entrant into SOTBPW's Batalla Real 11, their Royal Rumble style event. Nicky Champion is the current Campeonato del Mundo. SOTBPW are fight and winning a national battle with TCW over the USA. Edit: In CGC, The DeColts put all their chips into a 2 and a half year Alex DeColt run which was finally ended by Christian Pierce. What happens next? Pierce almost immediately leaves for USPW.
  14. It is. You can select stats to be shown as grades instead of numbers in the options.
  15. FIN, would you happen to have the XFW belts saved on your computer? They were either alts of the WEXXV belts or renders based on them. I can't find them online.
  16. So yeah, I made these a million years ago but they were never included in the download center thing, so I'm going to repost them now for the sake of it. JSilver, how does one upload to the Download Center? Also the OP might need to contain a warning that right clicking and saving an image hosted on photobucket is more or less broken (you need to right click, view image, and then "download image" from photobucket's page in many cases or the download becomes broken. Not always but often, especially on old uploads) and Photobucket has arguably become quite a crappy host in that regard.

  17. Out of context this looks a comment on something completely else
  18. <p><strong>Name</strong>: Anubis</p><p> <strong>Short Name:</strong> Anubis</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Biography</strong>: The seeds planted by Prophecy's WWWE run are starting to sprout. Growing up on footage of the legend, "the Dog of War" and "Lord of the Underworld" Anubis is a young worker trying to forge a career in a similar vein. Inspired by the dark tones of Prophecy and to an extent Core's work, Anubis proclaims to be the final judge of men's souls, and is here to take them to the underworld. </p><p> </p><p> Anubis' major upside is his youth, size and athleticism; While AWF is well known for their favouritism towards big men, their current batch of Titans are all noticeably starting to age. If the 6'6 Anubis is groomed correctly, he could start to peak just as they start to fade out. </p><p> </p><p> The man behind the Egyptian headgear is Kobe Camacho of Santa Fe, New Mexico, who previously had a promising career on the gridiron playing football in front of him before a terrible knee injury put an end to that. </p><p> </p><p> Please give a brief description of your characters appearance:</p><p> <img alt="KLzg30v.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/KLzg30v.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> Anubis wears an Anubis mask/headgear funnily enough, something akin to the above. Anubis is a Black Hispanic, so his skin tone should match accordingly. </p><p> </p><p> Age: 24</p><p> Nationality: American</p><p> Race: Black (Black Hispanic)</p><p> Ring Style: Entertainer </p><p> Size: Heavyweight</p><p> Finishing Move (please state type; Impact, Pinfall or Submission): Scythe of Anubis(Impact)</p><p> Face Gimmick (uses Platinum's gimmicks, we will not be creating gimmicks for this.): Deadman</p><p> Heel Gimmick (uses Platinum's gimmicks, we will not be creating gimmicks for this.): Deadman</p><p> Mask (Yes or No): Yes</p><p> Hair (Yes or No): Yes</p><p> Languages: Fluent English, Passable Spanish</p><p> Other Areas Active: Canada, Mexico</p><p> </p><p> <em>Please describe your character's personality using the categories listed in game:</em></p><p> Something close to the normal wrestler template</p><p> </p><p><em> Please describe your character's performance stats (face, heel, wholesome etc.) using the categories listed in game</em>: </p><p> Strong at Brute, good crazy, good weird, the rest is to your discretion. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Camera Skills Grade: </em></p><p> Strong. As a former football player, he doesn't have an issue coming off as big, strong and menacing. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Performance Skills Grade:</em></p><p> Below average. As a rookie and as someone for whom wrestling was a secondary career path, Anubis has not had the time to develop his performance skills. His power and stamina though are very good, having been trained as an athlete. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Entertainment Skills Grade: </em></p><p> Good. Anubis patterns himself after Prophecy, and is thus committed to be able to speak. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Flying Skills Grade: </em></p><p> As a tall man who has already seriously injured his knee previously, Anubis is not keen on flying around. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Technical Skills Grade:</em></p><p> Weak, although not non-existent. Anubis is clearly more Chaperone than Prophecy in the ring, but at least a one or two moves from the "American Horror" might pop up from time to time in his work. </p><p> </p><p> <em>Rumble Skills Grade:</em></p><p> Good. Anubis' knows which side of the bread he's buttered as a big man and that's in the rumble department.</p>
  19. <p>Jesus Christ man, you're on a rampage: I haven't seen quality output like in the logo department since Kam was unloading like wild when he had more free time on his hands.</p><p> </p><p> Awesome work, this last page in particularly is full of very polished graphic design work.</p>
  20. Love it; very much like jhd1's early stuff when he had a lighting setup more C-Verse background focused. That kind of lighting is my absolute favourite for C-Verse character and I'd love to see a whole lot more where that came from.
