  1. I know I said I was done making requests.... and at the time I meant it... but... if requests are indeed still open.... and if I may add just one more to the list... and since this thread has SOMEHOW fallen down to the second page... There is one more that I could use. That would be the MAX Women's Crown, or the MAX Women's Global Grown, also known as the MAX Women's GC. Should match up with the MAX championships you made for me... way back when, can't remember how many years it's been. White strap, with texture of some sort on the strap. For context, MAX is a promotion that's only prided itself on and been well regarded for its match quality. With that said, women's wrestling is the one area where they've NEVER really been able to compete with the WWA. However... it is 2022 now, and a wrestling promotion can't just NOT have a women's division these days, so.. they're ready to try again, and they're really hoping for better results this time around. After this one, I should well and truly be done. As always many thanks in advance.
  2. Yeah, that's it! Simple, I know, but I didn't have it, and wasn't sure I had the... technical expertise to make it myself. This seems to be it, either way, so... it's quite appreciated! Almost forgot I had asked about this, .
  3. Another fantastic belt, very much appreciated! No worries about the time, I've been straightening the WWA out in the game anyway!
  4. This might be a weird question, and I'm not 100% sure this is the right place to ask it... but does anyone have a blank background like the one in the Weidt picture pack? Honestly seems like I myself used to, but it's been years.
  5. I really enjoyed the premiere of The Orville: New Horizons on The Hu last night. Really great show. So great, I declared, that it felt like it could have been a 1990s show. That's HIGH praise coming from me! Like I've said before, I've heard the phrase "breath of fresh air" all my life, but I can honestly say I REALLY feel it with The Orville. This show... is indeed a breath of fresh air.
  6. Most excellent! Once again, very much appreciated! :cool:
  7. Seems like OOTP baseball had something along these lines. I'd imagine it'd be a little more complicated for a wrestling game though. Would be nice, but I don't expect it.
  8. Binged the first part of Stranger Things 4 today, thought it was amazing as per always. Really loved it a lot. Stranger Things and Cobra Kai are the things that keep me subscribed to Netflix. Saw that new Ricky Gervais stand-up comedy special as well. Enjoyed that a lot. Good stuff.
  9. Oh, this one more than works for me! Love that both versions of the WWA logo found their way onto this one. I'll admit, I was a bit concerned at first that this one might be more visually impressive than the World title, but having seen them both side to side, I think it works out pretty well. Very well, in fact. Very much appreciated, as always.
  10. Didn't see this post, didn't mean to pretty much ignore it in my own lengthy post that followed. Similar things seemed to be happening a lot in my earliest sims, but not nearly so much this time around. There is a Joshi promotion in the top 5 though, but only the one. It's called JJW I think, and seems to be doing reasonably well. No idea what, if anything, is different about my game this time around.
  11. My latest sim has just crossed over into March of 1962, and seems to be developing a world that's all kinds of cool. Created a second Watcher to take over for the original after he got too old, (yeah, I know Avatar's are pretty much immortal, but still, it seemed more natural to me to create a new Watcher, and have the first one leave the game long about 1960). The Classic Wrestling Federation, based in the Mid South and home to wrestling star Jackie Houston, has been the Number 1 promotion for... years now... but somehow, it seems to have a hard time staying at Medium. They keep falling back to small, and then climbing back up to Medium. Near as I can tell, though, they haven't lost their death grip on that Number One spot since they laid claim to it. The Medium promotions, most of which have been at Medium for years, but for whatever reason seem to be fairly low in the rankings include: The Danger Zone Wrestling Federation, which has probably been my favorite promotion to develop, and the one I'm most intently keeping an eye on. They're based in Australia, and I think it'd be pretty cool if I could make it to the modern day, and have the top promotion in the world, or at least one of them, be based in The Land Down Under. The DZWF for the record have an INSANE amount of money. The Natural Wrestling Group, based in Japan, with their champion Naozane Yamabe and the menacing Blasios Vicente on the roster. The Nightmare League of Wrestling in British Columbia also have A LOT of money at their disposal, but still only like half of what the DZWF has. Punjalibre has become quite the force in India, under the watchful eye of Abdul Ahmad. They're ranked 28th in the world. And finally, Vanguard Championship Wrestling in Manitoba, were founded by Toussnint Toupin, in October, 1934, and are still... as of March, 1962 anyway... owned by him. They're ranked 4th and surprisingly have almost as much money as the Australian outfit. Ma'n Hameed, a Pakistani wrestler who was a 1950 graduate of the Indian Pro Wrestling Academy, seems to be the top wrestler in the world at the moment, and is currently a two time Wrestler of the Year, and is a former MMPW Arena Champion. He currently works for MMPW, (Mighty Mighty Pro Wrestling), and the aforementioned Punjalibre. The original Watcher has left the business. Pretty interesting world so far. REALLY looking forward to the 1980s and 90s though, that's what I started this run for, really. Can't wait to see what those two decades are gonna look like.
  12. This is very cool, and very much appreciated! Thanks, for this! KBN-TV, just for the record, stands for Kazmaier Broadcast Network. In its universe, it was one of the original Big Three Networks, (much like the real world, there would eventually be a fourth), and dates back to the 1940s, the very earliest days of TV. Got the name from the Suggest Name feature on a blank worker profile, and thought it sounded both sufficiently unique and old school enough for what I was looking for here. And yes, I am indeed old enough to remember when Bill Kazmaier was making the rounds in WCW, so that aspect helped out as well. In the modern age, KBN-TV is the flagship of a top level media group, and more than likely has a prominent streaming service at its disposal as well.
  13. I could use a logo for a broadcaster called KBN-TV. It's a very large American broadcaster, something along the lines of CBS, (probably not very welcoming for wrestling, sadly), and features a lot of top-rated mainstream TV shows and foosball games. And stuff. Many thanks in advance to anyone who considers giving this one a shot.
  14. Yeah, seemed like there was something of a learning curve here. I finally decided the best idea was just to start with the Effganic Mod. Biggest reason I didn't just do that to start with was that I was in something of a hurry to get to the 1980s and 90s, and simming 60 years seemed a little daunting. Still does, actually, but now it seems more than worth the effort. I've made it up into the 50s so far, late 1951 I think it is now, and at the moment, there are like 7 Medium-sized promotions in the world. Two in Canada, one in Australia, at least one in England, at least one in Japan, and one in Europe. Threw me for a loop that there weren't any in the US... but the more I thought about it, the more interesting I thought that might make this particular game-world as it develops. Kinda of like in an OOTP baseball sim I ran way back when, where the Babe Ruth of my world, the guy who hit 61 home runs in a single season, and set a record that stood for more than 65 years, was something of a one hit wonder - he lasted less than 5 seasons total, and finished with less than 100 career home runs. I love stuff like that in these games. It'd actually make me kinda happy if I made it to the modern age, and the unquestioned leader in professional wrestling was a company based in Australia. I've been a fan of The Land Down Under ever since I was a kid, and saw Crocodile Dundee for the first time. Think that might a cool thing to play around with.
  15. Saw WrestleMania: Backlash tonight, (really late, as I had to work, and then had to watch the show on replay after I got home). Enjoyed it, have absolutely zero complaints about it. I think very highly of The Bloodline, for the record, and Randy Orton is also one of my favorites. Something about the show inspired to begin work on a My Universe game for 2K22, wherein I shall play exclusively as my created wrestler, so now, I'm gonna do that.
  16. All right, here's my second request: WWA World Tag Team, WWA Jr. Heavyweight, and WWA Women's. All three of these are cross-branded, and are generally held in high regard.
  17. Got it straightened out, thankfully. Honestly, thought I was in trouble for a minute there though! If you mean the RMW championships you can see in display in one of the first posts in this thread, those bad boys are ON POINT! I use those quite a bit myself!
  18. Oh, they do! They most certainly do! Most especially so after I used the ol' Magic Google Machine to learn how to convert a WEBP file to a good old-fashioned JPEG. Wasn't sure what WEBP was at first. A million and one Thank Yous for all three of those! They're just what the doctor ordered, (and that North American title is in particular great!). On this day, you have done a tremendous service for "The Dominant Force in Professional Wrestling". :cool: If it's not too early to put in a second request, I'll go ahead and mention the WWA World Tag Team, WWA Jr. Heavyweight, and WWA Women's Championships, (cross-branded, all three), and that should complete the set, and finish out just about any championship needs I have at the moment.
  19. That first TCW logo is amazing! Looks like like a promotion that's trying not only to present itself as the real deal, but also as the best that's ever done it! I can imagine them as a workrate-centric company, that tries very hard to create the idea that their matches are the best around. I see marketing possibilities in the whole 'King of Pro Wrestling' thing.
  20. That's just for context. I don't have a logo for ShowDown! yet, but hopefully someday. Don't need those for the belts either way though.
  21. It does have the free pictures... but I don't remember setting that particular option to anything... so, I'll have a gander at that, see if it does anything good for me.
  22. OK, I have a weird question. I've been trying my hand at creating an organic database, to start during the 1950s, and then advance forward to the modern day. My goal with this, basically, to create a little handy dandy study guide for myself, so that I have something to go to to look at to see how promotions, workers, and everything else changes over the years in a game. Somehow, though... this always seems to go poorly. My latest effort, I went in to check on the world in about 1980 or so... and... all the promotions had ZERO popularity across the board, the ones that were still active at least, all of the workers I had created to begin with were old and washed up or dead, and for some reason, none of the training camps I had set up had graduated any workers. Seemed there was a complete and utter lack of new workers coming in altogether, even though I thought I had checked all the boxes to make that happen. Not sure what I did wrong here. Anyone know what I should be trying to make this particular kind of database happen?
  23. Not 100% sure, but I think the shorts I used were Rusev's from 2K20, but with all the logos and identifying marks removed. I just changed up the colors to match the black and silver color scheme, and used rubber (I think) as the main material).
