  1. My mod is a female only mod and I have been putting together a names database that only contains the 200 most popular first names and surnames (circa 1990) from each country.  I wondered if anyone would be interested in collaborating with something like this? I find some of the names in the default database to be pretty unusual and a little bit immersion breaking.

    so if the regions were changed to countries and the rest deleted I wonder if that would work long term.  Seems unusual that it's tied to that - i'd think it's more the number of fighters being the factor

    By regions I mean countries.  Like move all canadians to the US, and put japan and asia together etc in terms of where fighters and companies are based.  Numbers of fighters must matter too however.

    my pc is fast too - it's a limitation of the game, not hardware.  Waiting long periods of time when selecting names in the booking screen is the reality.  As Flamesnoopy mentions, it does become completely unplayable.  It's really unfortunate too because that's when the game becomes alot of fun when you've created the history, witnessed/influenced it all, and want to continue building the world along with shaping the future fighters.  

    I suppose the only way to get round it would be to move the fighters to a smaller number of regions.  I could be wrong, but I think the game slows down dramatically when all regions are active. I don't have all regions active in my mod, there are some areas in the world that I've left empty of fighters. Not a fix I know.

     Agree fully other than I find I spend too much time waiting for the game to simulate. I’m in 2024 with over 20 years and it’s slows to a crawl even booking the fights it’s slow to load.  That’s the only thing really killing it for me.  Really wish the performance was better long term.  

    My computer is quite fast and doesn't seem to take too long between turns but I still find myself watching Youtube in between turns.  I suppose for some that would break the immersion a little bit, but I often skip 3 or 4 days at a time and watch Youtube in between.  Works pretty well for me.🙂

    On a sidenote: you still play CK2? A lot of ppl here played it, but most have moved on to CK3. However, I haven't played in a while because it's a bit "dumbed down" from CK2. But still also very immersive if you ask me. Also better portraits. Plus great mods.

    Yeah, I still play CK2.  I really find it to be one of the best games ever made.  Endless replay value.  I did think about buying CK3 but heard that it was a bit dumbed down and was sort of scared that if I play it I might like some aspects of it a lot but hate others.  And in doing so it might ruin my enjoyment of CK2.  The thing I like about CK2 is that it is very minimal in terms of graphics so I'm forced to use my imagination a little for what characters look like in the flesh.  I am however quite interested in the much more detailed portraits in CK3.  How do you find the two games compare?

  6. When i'm chilled out and in the mood for a slow burn game that I take my time and think everything through and watch every match, I really feel this game has such a timeless feel and second to none immersion.  I only play my mod now, but it's just the perfect way for me to unwind before the day is over. Love it. Between this, Rimworld and Crusader Kings 2, I don't need anything else.

    I honestly think that WMMA 5 is already such a great game that i dont really need a new one. 

    It is truly an excellent game, but every game can be improved on.  Maybe it will take for another few major stars to appear and the UFC's popularity to go up before it is tempting financially to make another game🤞.  Or maybe Adam just doesn't want to go through that process again.  I feel that UFC's popularity has sort of peaked at the moment due to the lack of big new names. 

    Most of the folk that I get excited by like Khamzat just don't fight often enough. And Khabib retiring so early was a real bummer as was letting Francis Ngannou go.  Jon Jones being out for so long didn't help matters and with Nate Diaz retiring the UFC need to find some stars that help excite the casual fans.

     

  8. I very often find I'll select add show, select a location, then as I'm putting the fights together I realise that the show would have made much more sense in a different part of the world.  It's seems a bit strange that you can select "alter show" but the option to change the location of the show is greyed out.  At least during the initial set-up.

     

    I would love if this could be amended so that during the initial set-up before clicking "next turn" you could alter the location as the alternative is to go back and cancel the show which is very time consuming if you've already thought carefully about some of the fights you want to put together.

     

     

  9. I'm making a mod that uses 1000s of photos of real people with full body photographs.  The trouble is many of the images that camera angle is quite squint.

    Up until now I've been rotating them with photoshop but it's really time consuming.

     

    Is there a program you guys know of that analyses the photo and recognises the human body before straightening it automatically?

     

    Any help would be appreciated.  Time is short for me these days with work and family.  

     

    Cheers,

    If there was a WMMA 6 announced that would be such a happy day for me.  Improved sim speeds alone would be incredible.  I'm glad they still support this game, but I wish they would continue to build off it.  Once the creators passion is gone, this project tends to die. 

    It would be a very happy day for me also. WMMA 5 is currently the only game I play. Knowing another was in production would interest me more than any other gaming sequel.

  11. Sorry to bump, but thought it preferable to a new thread.

     

    Does anyone know if WMMA5 can be played on Steam Deck outside of Steam? I have one coming soon and my understanding is if I launch it in desktop mode, I can install anything I can install on a regular PC. I am a console gamer usually so this could be way off base...

     

    I plan on docking it a lot of the time and would be nice to see how the game runs on a more modern machine. My laptop is ancient and the game is starting to creak 10 years into a save.

     

    Secondary question I suppose, but does anyone have what could be considered a top end processor and does it impact speed between days?

     

    My computer has a better processor than my last and I've noticed load times are much quicker than they were.

  13. In WMMA3 there was a cool screen that told you which fighters were your biggest stars as well as which ones were losing their shine and were likely to become gatekeepers to the younger prospects and also a list of the hottest prospects in your company. I really miss that screen. Was cool to look at if you had a large roster and couldn't quite keep track of everything.
  14. I just wish they found a way to make the simulation to next events much more time efficient. 95% of the game for me is waiting for the next event to arrive.

    While I greatly enjoy the game when I get to the fight cards, it's really hard to justify throwing my time away just waiting. That's really the reason I would hope we see a WMMA6.

     

    I just watch youtube in between turns. Or do other stuff on my computer. Would be cool if loading times were reduced though.
