  1. Minor gripe, but could we maybe add "at" or "near" to the options? I'm putting a bunch of geographical feature sites in my mod, and neither "in" or "on" really fit things like a lake or giant tree.
  2. Is there a good way to stream TEW? I am learning OBS but it doesn't seem to play nice with the multiple windows, and I don't really want to do a full screen capture because I'm nervous about doxing.
  3. I think it would be nice to just throw two stables into a Storyline, either as an actual mechanical concept or just a shortcut for making them in-game or in the editor.

  5. Could I please get some generic rules for booking a single show? I think I'm going to do a file where I have 48 rules and pick one at random for each TV show, so stuff like "all 2v2 matches" or "your oldest guy gets a win" or "have a title change." I think I stole the idea from a dynasty here but I can't find it again.
  6. The most complicated ranking system I've ever used was just "you beat somebody above you, you get their spot and everybody else moves down one." I do enjoy ELO (both of em!) but it might be a bit heavy for wrestling.
  7. EDIT: Turns out this function exists, albeit under Companies instead of Halls of Fame. Would delete if I was able! Would be very nice if you could tell the editor to go ahead and pull data for you from Title Lineages for Hall of Fame/Immortals purposes. There's a good chunk of that section that still has to be done by hand, but it would save a bunch of time when there are feds with long lineages! Only issue I can foresee is that Hall of Immortals wouldn't be able to tell if a certain title reign occurred when the company was Big enough.
  8. I've been doing a lot of three-year watcher games to test my mod, and I've noticed that a lot of the time new feds (both ones I've set to open later and organic ones) will just never get an owner or roster or anything, and sit there slowly running out of money until they die. I think there are usually potential owners available, and I also think it has to do with product settings. (one of my future feds never has an issue, and the other has it a lot less frequently after changing its style) Is there maybe a check that can be run before an organic fed is created, or could an ownerless fed cast a wider net, (especially if it's been a while) or could stuff just...not open without an owner?
  9. This update adds WWE, WWF, Stardom, and a backyard fed based loosely on an old EWR diary I did! I also might stop posting updates since this doesn't seem to be getting much interest, but I'll keep working on it regardless and maybe come back with the finished product.
  10. Sometimes for me at least the worker is fully mechanically implemented before I do their cosmetics, so it would be nice to have an easy way to apply their default profile to their contract rather than having to do each one individually. Or just a "fill in default" button for everybody like there is for workers with multiple alter egos!
  11. I'm working on a mod, and trying to figure out what is going on with owners and bookers. I have two feds that open after the start date- one usually opens when I sim, but the other one hardly ever gets an owner or booker or roster at all, and thus just cancels shows until it runs out of money. Also, I have a decent number of folks set as potential owners and/or bookers, but it seems like there's only one of them that ever gets picked for the future fed or any vacancies that show up. Any ideas about what is causing either of those situations?
  12. India should pretty much be how it's going to be now, so you have a fully functional mod! A few things have been added or tweaked, and cosmetics are good to go as well. Next up is Oceania, which will represent real-life (or real-life inspired) pro wrestling of every flavor! (that I know well enough to mod, that is)
  13. Is a fun one- I kickstarted the base and the expansion. You're not gonna get an in-depth "tew as card game" booking experience but it's a fun little deckbuilder-lite kinda game.
  14. I think it's a good idea, if some of the existing scandal types are already a bridge we're willing to cross. An alternative would be a generic option to include the current stuff and other weird things that aren't covered. Heck maybe we even need a Mass Add function in the editor now.
  15. I've messed with some weirdly good backstages as well as some dumpster fires.
  16. Probably a fringe case, but the mod I'm working on at least has characters under 18, and some are owners and bookers. It doesn't seem like there's a way I can access them from the start of game menu, as Min Age in the search is set to 18 and can't go lower. I'd like an Any Age option, possibly even as a default, please.
  17. We are underway! This is actually the second month of work, so India should be mostly (but not entirely) done mechanically and about half done cosmetically. Please keep in mind that it is a work in progress! And hey, if you're curious what else is in store, a lot of future workers already have pics in the folder!
  18. India Representing fandoms originating or popular on the internet, India has the smallest and weakest wrestling scene, but there is plenty of potential for growth. A remarkably friendly network of companies is headed up by the burgeoning MS Paint Adventures in the north, and Underground Tales and Dramatic Rumblings in the south. MS Paint Adventures (Homestuck/etc): MSPA's quirky presentation has endeared itself to the Indian fanbase, and they sit tenuously at the top of the mountain. Much of their roster is very young and very green, but they have enough veterans to help them reach their full potential! Underground Tales and Dramatic Rumblings (Undertale/Deltarune): A slightly more alternative product than even MSPA, UTDR ranges from comic relief to hardcore and back again, sometimes in the span of an evening. Can their hot stars carry them to success on the national stage and beyond? Order of the Slam (assorted webcomics): With MSPA rising to prominence, many of the territorial feds banded together to try to keep their grip on the Indian imagination. Will this re-invention help them hold off the hungry youngsters? Ultimate Combat Association and Board 8 Wrasslin' League: Small but ambitious, these two glorified e-feds are closely tied together. UCA has a bit more pedigree, while B8WL has done a better job of reaching out to outside talent. Both feds love their gimmick matches, and are rife with undiscovered talent. More details to follow on the rest of the world.....
  19. KNOWN ISSUES I WOULD PARTICULARLY LIKE FEEDBACK ON: -General balance, keeping in mind that a lot of the workers currently in game are really young. -The finance issues that many of these feds run into over time
  20. https://www.mediafire.com/file/6umuqf0vle5cj5o/TEW2020.mdb/file (0.1.3 but really it's 0.2.1, updated 7/31) https://www.mediafire.com/file/3gu971bb11wh2yj/Phoenix-verse.rar/file (Pics updated 6/30) Phoenix-verse is born of the concept "What if we could play 9000-verse and War of the Immortals at the same time?" A predecessor of this mod was in development for years, but with the release of 2020, I've taken the opportunity to reboot it as more of a solo project. (I'll throw the half-finished previous mod up in the 2016 section if anybody wants to mess with it!) Elements may have been taken (with permission) from various iterations of that project, the Cornellverse, and the 9000-verse. I'm estimating a bit over 3000 people and 60 companies for the final product. The concept is that each area of the game will correspond to different things- for instance, the first area I'm working on is India, which is designated as "The Internet." It'll have things like webcomics, and internet cult favorite items that might normally go elsewhere. More details will be posted below as we proceed, but there will also be areas based on things like anime, or, y'know, actual pro wrestling. My schedule has me spending about three months per area, meaning that ideally we'll have a finished product in the first half of 2022. Those three months per area are going to be 2-2.5 months of data entry, and the last few weeks on cosmetics and more rigorous playtesting. My intent is to post my progress on the mod at the end of every month, and probably an updated pic pack every three months after an area is done. Two disclaimers I should get out of the way: I'm avoiding using other modders' work for pictures, but I'm grabbing stuff off google image search rather indiscriminately. If you're an artist or photographer or actual person, I'll be happy to take your picture out of the pack if you'd like. If that's not kosher with the rules or culture here, I'll just...not post the pictures, I suppose! Also, the primary demographic for this mod is not this site, so there will be a few in jokes and feds that might not make sense to y'all. Especially in this first "Internet" section, actually! If you are super interested, PM me for a link to the main thread on a different site. I'm not planning to implement fandoms or people that I don't know decently well, which will probably lead to some glaring omissions in some areas. I'm not currently looking for major help. I would love (polite) feedback on balance and such, since I don't have the pedigree of many of the modders here. If somebody wants to contribute things like pics or bios, I am unlikely to say no. Other than that, I'm planning on flying solo for most of the grunt work.
  21. I think most Editor screens have that (or I haven't been dumb enough to trigger them) but the Company screen doesn't.
  22. I have a mod I'm working on (I'll put a thread up I think, once I get this part resolved!) but every time run a watcher test, all three currently existing companies go out of business within two years. Any ideas what my issue is? Further info: -India is the only active part of the world so far. I'm hoping the answer to this isn't just "India can't sustain wrestling" -Two Medium companies and a Tiny and a handful of unemployed -Economy and Industry are High and Rising -Think I've done tests on 1.0, 1.01, and 1.02 -There are a lot of kinda green wrestlers but the AI is getting decent ratings out of them relative to size. -Merchandising is set I think a little higher than comparable CV feds -They've got decently hefty bankrolls to start but the Mediums especially just hemorrhage money. -I don't have broadcaster deals set up to start and there aren't great options (I'm using CV broadcasters plus some Quick Fill) but getting broadcaster deals over the course of the game didn't seem to fix it. -They're all running annual events every month, and the Mediums have weekly TV shows they sometimes resurrect. -Contracts are Written Per Month (non-exclusive) for the Mediums and Handshake Per Show for the Tiny. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
