  1. I bought WMMA 3 years ago and I'm enjoying it. But since its been a long time I can't remember what the process is for buying WMMA 5. I remember we can download the retail version of the .exe from the main page. But where do I buy the license from? What is the page? Thanks for any help.
  2. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="Gigas" data-cite="Gigas" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="49295" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>There's an old one from the late 90s called World Championship Boxing Manager.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I remember playing this back in the day. It was my first non-football (soccer) management game I ever played.</p><p> </p><p> For those that have never heard of it. You start off as a manager and can hire up to 5 randomly generated boxers.</p><p> </p><p> There are 2 boxing promotions that feature 100 boxers, all fight in both promotions but are at different ranked levels.</p><p> </p><p> I think both promotions had belts at ranked 75, 50, 25 and 1 was the World Champion.</p><p> </p><p> I dont think it had weight divisions.</p><p> </p><p> I remember as manager you had to set the training regime of each boxer. Also you had to call up other managers who were managing at least one of the other boxers, many managed a stable of boxers, to arrange the fight, when it would take place, which promotion it would be part of.</p><p> </p><p> The only slow part of the game was the boxing fights itself. It is like a very limited boxing-centric version of what is in WMMA.</p><p> </p><p> I've no doubt it would be easy to make a better game than this, more promotions, more managers, weight divisions, the ability to buy/sell boxers etc.</p><p> </p><p> It's still possible to play this game using an emulator for one of the machines it was out on. I'm sure its out of copyright by now anyway.</p>
  3. <p>Ok, I haven't seen this question asked yet.</p><p> </p><p> I'm going to move my game over from this old XP machine to the new Win10 one I have. So I do the unlicense thing. But where do I get the .exe file for the new pc?</p><p> </p><p> Do I have to copy the directory over or can I download the .exe from the website?</p><p> </p><p> Edit:</p><p> </p><p> Ok, I had to use the shortcut in the start menu, which had a path: "C:\Program Files\GDS\WMMA3\UNWISE.EXE" /W1 "C:\Program Files\GDS\WMMA3\INSTALL.LOG" </p><p> </p><p> I've tried adding the -unlicense tag on the end. It doesn't seem to show any license number. The game just starts normally. I tried cutting the last bit off and typing "C:\Program Files\GDS\WMMA3\UNWISE.EXE" -unlicense</p><p> </p><p> Which still doesnt work. The game doesnt even load if I do that.</p><p> </p><p> I don't have any desktop shortcut, and surely it would be the same path anyways as the start menu shortcut? So what is the correct command line to type to unlicense the game??</p>
