(This thread is about mod creation, but thought it was a pretty general topic for those that like to experiment with mods also)
In order to be viable so the ai doesn't close that division (when for example some retire or they just lose too many fights and have to go back to regional circuit)? I just wondered if anyone had experimented with this at all.
I'm not sure about the specific number, but I have to set the companies maximum size (popularity) to high level national. I hate having to do that but I haven't figured out another way to prevent the AI from closing divisions.

This. I want to play but $35 is alot for a 2 year old game
I agree but it's worth it.

Funny thing is I don't know why I care about fight metrics all of a sudden. I rarely "watch" a fight anyway. I appreciate your feedback.</p>

Unfortunately I can't get the fight metrics to resemble a boxing match. There aren't enough punches thrown to feel realistic. I'm seeing 8 round fights with less than 25 punches thrown at times. Two power punches. It was fun giving it a shot.

The default database starts in January 2002. You can edit the database info to change it, but remember to adjust birthdates and debut dates accordingly.</p>

I don't think anything REALLY needs to be tweaked apart from all "kicking" stats and AI tendencies. Use the mass editor to give every fighter "loves to strike" and mass-remove "loves to roll" and "loves to wrestle" for the few that have those attributes (as it would conflict). Nobody has any "hates to ..." so you can ignore that. After that takedowns should be extremely rare if they happen at all. Clinching will eventually happen but nothing should come of it if takedown gets nullified. I guess you COULD nullify the rest but it shouldn't really matter. Those "loves to" attributes really work well.
I don't recall whether there's a "never kicks" attribute, but that would be obvious if it's there. Just to be safe, give everyone +100 on the kick defense stat (forgot the name).
Personally I would recommend increasing everyone's chin by 10 (or 20?) to simulate the big gloves having less KO power.
Would be curious to the result. I've dabbed in simming pure kickboxing but never pure boxing.
Thank you so much for the feedback. I will give it a shot.

I would like some advice. I would like to turn the default universe into a boxing mod. My thoughts would be to reduce each non boxing stat to very low or zero. I like to do this with WMMA 3. I'm having difficulty trying to determine how I should tweak the fight engine in WMMA 5. What would you recommend? Is there anything that I may be missing?

I would/will buy this day 1.

Unable to open the file
I downloaded the mod but, I'm unable to open it. When I go into the data folder, the file listed as WMMA5 says that it's a Microsoft access db file. I do have access on my laptop, but I haven't had this issue with any other files. I can open the picture file without a problem. Does anyone have ideas on how I can try to solve this problem?

Preventing the closing of weight classes
Is there a way to prevent companies from shutting down weight classes? I feel like no matter how few companies or how many more fighters that I have companies continue to shut down weight classes. I love simming 5-10 years in the future but rarely have more than one company that has not shut down multiple weight classes. I feel like this didn't happen in WMMA 3 but I could be wrong. Thanks.
-
<p>One weight class</p><p> </p><p>
Has anyone had success with creating a mod with only one weight class per company? If so what is your (and AI's) sweet spot for roster size? How do you ensure that companies sign fighters? I've tried several times without success.</p>

I simmed 10 years into the future and six of the eight companies have dropped or made inactive at least three of the divisions. I imported this dataabse from WMMA 3 than to WMMA 4. Is there a setting I can implement to stop companies from dropping divisions?</p>

I'm a WMMA 3-5 player. Can I play TEW 2016 by just booking matches or do I have to create story lines? I guess I'm wondering if I can play this game in a similar way to WMMA. Thank you.

Any chance of getting an 8 team playoff?
Is it possible to remove conferences? I.E. A game with only the Power 5 conferences?
