  1. Damn, I have just started a long RTG game a week ago, already into 1999. If I remember correctly there's not option to add these changes to an existing game other than just copying all your broadcaster changes by hand? I might just do that because everyone seems to be hoarding money. A new TEW update really needs to balance the money balloon problem.

     

    Also here's a Hardcore Alliance logo if anyone needs one since I made it for my game.

  3. I'm playing The Mod Squad's Golden Age mod and a number of promotions have only one potential founder set to mandatory. Which means that the person has to be unemployed to set the company up when on the month it's supposed to pop up.

     

    I didn't know this, and a number of feds like ECW and WING never got founded because the potential founder was employed.

     

    If I fiddle with the contracts in the editor and make those founders unemployed, will they set up companies now, or am I screwed because the editor date for the company has passed?

  4. <p>I'm currently in 1993, playing a 1987 mod with a custom company called Philadelphia All-Wrestling Federation. I've had monthly events since the start, taking it slow. Currently we're regional and looking good financially.</p><p> </p><p>

    Mick Foley is the current PAWF World Title holder. He's feuding with face Brian Pillman who has a maniac gimmick. Mick Foley keeps beating him and avoiding title matches, and Pillman keeps getting more unstable. Things will culminate at the season finale Grand Slam in December where Pillman will finally take the title, but cheat to win and turn heel, and go completely insane.</p><p> </p><p>

    Booker T and Stevie Ray are the current PAWF Tag Team champions.</p><p> </p><p>

    I also have Diamond Dallas Page who will get his push soon, and Mike Awesome who I'll make champion in a year or so.</p>

  8. <p>I'm playing the 1987 mod and have Mick Foley in my small sized fed. And something is happening which I've never seen happen before. He keeps losing popularity not matter what.</p><p> </p><p>

    I have him win against a guy with 15 more pop than him, Foley loses two. He wins in a tag against similarly rated opponents, loses two more pop.</p><p> </p><p>

    Has anyone seen a worker tanking popularity no matter what before? How to fix it?</p>

  10. <p>Okay, thanks for suggestions. My last start at RTG was before when sponsorships were a bit higher, so by running one, two or none shows a month I was able to make it easily. </p><p> </p><p>

    I remembered people back then used the whole ton of shows thing to get pop quickly for bigger sponsor money, but now the sponsorship goes up so slowly, it's not doable. I'll try this one again with one show per month.</p>

  11. <p>I gave my previous RTG where I'm cult a rest to try out the CV97 mod, and well looks like bankruptcy. I used only the cheapest people, and did weekly shows to get my popularity up, but things changed a lot from the 1.0 patch and now sponsorship is even tougher.</p><p> </p><p>

    With a quite favorable sponsorship company I'm getting 5,000 a month at small. Not running a show in one month gets me 3,000 in the plus. Since I'm 30,000 in debt, I doubt I'll be able to climb out of the hole in about 9 months. And this is with good economy.</p><p> </p><p>

    I did internet distribution at the start, it got up all areas to 3 pop and gave me 16,000 estimated sponsorship one month, but then crashed to 0. I really don't know why internet even really exists cause it seems useless.</p>

Now I'm just simming until a new local promotion pops up.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I think really the only way to do this is do many shows at the start, get to small to get the attendance and sponsorship boost and then cut down on shows. If you do one monthly show, it would take you about 2 years to get to small at best, and every month you'd be losing money. So it's impossible.</p>
  13. Do soft caps exist in the game, or like certain things capped at ages. In my game Joss Thompson was capped at 74 psychology for about a year, I'd put him against and with guys that had high 80's-mid 90's psych and it wouldn't move. A couple of in game months ago his psych started to improve, currently 77. It's strange that it started happening now as I'd just given up pushing him and have started using him to get other people over, it's like he said "Well now the pressure is off I can finally chill and just get better."

     

    Did you maybe grow in size as a company? I swear my user character in RTG has ran into Charisma caps twice, and seems to have started improving when I moved up sizes. His performance skills have been capped for two years now too at high 70's. Not moving.

  17. The problem there is that it only covers 4 areas which is pretty much useless - more so Puerto Rico which (pointlessly) covers one area that you'll pop anyway.

     

    I'm going for a brand split -one in the MA to get the East Coast gig - and another in Texas to get spillover in 3 other areas to aim for the 8 areas. Auto- book comes into its own in this situation.

     

    If you get a deal with Canal Dos, you can get a deal with OnDem, they demand at least 45 pop in 5 regions, you have two already if you're cult, and you get pop in Mexico. It does take about a year, at least for me.

     

    But now I'm with OnDem or whatever they're called and have coverage everywhere except Japan.

  18. Urgh!

     

    Did the way broadcasters work get changed in 2013? When I played if you got to Cult there's was always a broadcaster you could get. Now you have to be popular in 8 regions or so. Now I understand about sticking in just one region and getting big enough to buy your own broadcaster. Oterwise it's a case of going on the road a lot and probably losing a lot of money on the way. Well that sucks. Either way is going to take a long time.

     

    It depends a lot on your location. To get TV in Puerto Rico you just need to have pop there, there's also a TV for the whole Eastern Coast where you only need to be regional. Canal Dos in Mexico has some coverage in the US and works with cult companies no matter the pop.

     

    But yeah, getting a deal if you're in Northwest or South East sounds very hard, Great Lakes too.

  19. I think people don't understand what free and commercial mean. Sure, POP may be paying peanuts to TNA, but they're a basic cable company. So you need to have cable to get it, and they run ads.

     

    Free to air would be PBS, maybe BBC? National companies that everyone pays for in the country like BBC which doesn't exist in the US, I'm sure they may run ads, but I think everyone gets the channel in the country.

     

    Pretty much all broadcasters go into commercial as far as I understand.

At this point i think most people would say that ROH is the number 2 company in America, due to it being in more televised homes (i believe), having a regular house show touring schedule and its connection to NJPW . Just a suggestion love the Mod!</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> ROH may be second company in popularity now, even though that's debatable but it's not cult. I think RW mods need to be balanced for the game's engine and in relation to C-Verse. In the C-verse cult companies can draw 5,000 people or more, the point is they draw in thousands.</p><p> </p><p> ROH is drawing 1000ish for their big shows, and around 400-900 depending on where they go for TV. That's nowhere near cult level. So if you put ROH at cult, they're gonna get insanely rich probably and draw unrealistic numbers and buys.</p><p> </p><p> I'd argue TNA should be regional by drawing numbers and importance, they're in a huge crisis. But if you put them at regional then they lose the TV deal.</p>
  21. I'm a bit confused about alliance titles. Do you control the title all the time? Ric Flair is the NWA champion, but he has been loaned to another company. Could he lose the title there?

     

    Yes he can lose the title at AI shows, but I believe everyone who is loaned gets creative control and can refuse to drop the title to people below him, however alliance titles seem to have really long reigns.

     

    Usually I see 20-ish defences so, it'll take a while to lose the title anyways.
