  1. <p>I use a spreadsheet that I've created that allows me to quick-sim matches by performing dice rolls based on skills, push level and takes managers/valets into account. It even displays the victor's image and plays his theme too. The results are used to create rankings on the fly.</p><p> </p><p> .. it's fair to say that I spent far too long making this thing. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>
  2. Does anybody know if the game can randomly generate new potential Owners and CEOs as it goes? Can retired workers become them? Or do these need to be managed manually? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />
  3. <p>Really late to the party with v5, but I finally bought it and I'm really liking what I've seen thus far.</p><p> </p><p> Do you guys use the default settings for Injuries, Finances and such? Or is it recommended that these are tweaked for realism? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>
  4. What are people's thoughts on the Fog of War in TEW nowadays? I'm sure it's down to a matter of taste mainly, and I lean towards the side of using it as I tend to prefer the challenge, but why do you use (or not) the feature yourself?
  5. Still very much enjoying FPWW here too. SO much fun! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />
  6. <p>Just like Warrior, I use a convoluted, overly-complex dice & chart system .. wait .. what? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> I don't use a budget. Instead, I have a master list of wrestlers, three are randomly selected each time there's a free slot on the roster, and I hire who I'd like (and who's edit is available on the Workshop) from the three. I roll dice for weekly show events, such as title shots out of the blue. There's a monthly roll after each supercard to see what happens; roster change, promotion size change (I have it set to happen randomly as it's tricky to determine 'success' in FPWW at the moment), a new trainee available to hire, etc. There's an injury roll when a Critical occurs. Yeah .. ridiculous I know. No target or goal needed. Just enjoy the show.</p><p> </p><p> And DVD, you need <a href="http://steamcommunity.com/app/564230/discussions/0/1470841715935669753/" rel="external nofollow">this mod</a> to use the ring textures. It's not as tricky as you might think. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

  8. <p>I'm still loving FPWW too. Simming quite a lot as I run a small promotion using a spreadsheet that I've put together for myself. I'm using a modern era setup at the moment, but I've also completed the prep work so that I can have a second promotion going with workers from across the eras. Bit like a War Of The Immortals approach.</p><p> </p><p> Mind you. I've had as much fun tweaking the stats of workshop edits to use so that they have a unified scale. Something that could be an issue if using the work of multiple creators. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

There are various guides knocking around on the 'net if you're looking into creating your own workers, and <a href="http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198370398209/myworkshopfiles/?p=1&numperpage=30" rel="external nofollow">this guy has also made a bunch of templates</a> with more to come.

  10. I did do a setup very similar to how you listed yours originally, but I'm thinking that separating them into the proper alignment groups would be beneficial. I am now toying with .. WWE RAW - Face - Heel - Staff WWE SDL - Face - Heel - Staff .. and so on. I'd also be interested to hear how others are doing this.
  11. The alignment doesn't appear to do too much at present. One thing I have discovered is that workers need to be in the same stable in order for interference to occur when using seconds. So you'd need to have Heyman in the same group as Lesnar for instance.
  12. <p>In truth Blackman, I personally feel that's it's much better for simming than playing. The edits are getting better and better as time passes, though I do agree with you on Lesnar. No-one has nailed his appearance yet.</p><p> </p><p> Also, remember that this is still in Early Access atm - that's not stopping me having an absolute blast with it already - and that there is more to come. A promoter / GM mode has been confirmed. MP3 support is coming. I do hope that they add rings and belts to the Workshop, though they have confirmed that a logo editor is currently being worked on.</p>
  13. <p>You're most welcome. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> There are thousands of CAW's available on the Steam Workshop already. Around 9,000 including duplicates. I've only seen Air Attack Weasel from the C-Verse so far, but I bet they'll appear in time.</p><p> </p><p> As for WCW .. <a href="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=972997202" rel="external nofollow">WCW Collection</a> .. and NWA .. <a href="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=993475523" rel="external nofollow">NWA 80s</a>.</p>
