I think this is the best Lucky dip result I have gotten so far.

By the style, I can say that most of them are from Jtlant. The rest, I think you can find them in the re-render thread. btw nice to see you back again with SWF, EV, can't wait to binge read a month worth of shows.

2018 version for 2020 was perfect, it was like an improved unofficial version of c-verse. It's great. I have been alternating between my own cobbled together 2020 c-verse using historian's extended version + few mods, and your 2018 mod and yours feels and plays a lot better due to the creative choices. Excited for 2022 version as well.

Face that runs the place - This goes without saying but the three DeColt brothers can never turn heels, unless you get Stevie back, that traitor isn't a real DeColt and is excluded. House of Horror - DeColt family needs new villains. Hire 3 new monsters (70+menace) and push them to at least Well-known level in first year. Vibert's Voice - CGC is a family business, but Vibert is the one in control. Don't hire anyone currently working at Supreme, even if they are released by Eisens. Everyone at SWF pays for DAVE. Old school Alex - Your world champion is required to be a middleweight or up. Nobody under middleweight is legitimate enough to be the world champion in the eyes of Alex DeColt. Vibert's indie darling - Vibert loves Trent Shaffer. Make sure he is always involved in a storyline with Major stars/Stars on your show. Family-friendly fun - For every new serious gimmick you assign to your wrestlers, you need to assign a silly gimmick as well. (This is for RP purposes, but it's CGC, go crazy with gimmicks!)

Keep your friends close... - NJPW and NWA are your only North American allies in the game, everyone else is the competition now, even the Tony's Khanate. Do not initiate working agreements or alliances. Become hostile with the ones who have stabbed you in the back - AEW (Elite using ROH resources and then launching new promotion), CMLL (Mexican deals), Impact (for past), MLW (rush saga) are all hostile promotions now. Japan/Britain deals not included. Odd-Even - For every WWE/AEW release you hire, you need to cross off another release with similar pop (variance of 5-10 is okay.) We are young... - No champions over 35, no new hirings over age of 35. 4 Pillars - Choose 4 wrestlers, make them your new pillars. Every PPV/TV should have at least one of them in Main event, untill one of them is stolen/fired. Then choose someone else to replace them. Every 6 months, you can change one out of 4. 'World' champion - foreign TV deals pay, and our championships have word 'world' in it. Hire wrestlers from 6 different nations at the start of the game. They should not be from traditional wrestling countries - (America, Mexico, Canada, Japan, and England) rest of the UK is fair game IMO. These 6 are excluded from odd-even rule. 2 of them must become some kind of champion in one year.

So, I was going through the memory card of my old phone before throwing it away and found these in there. There are these Diary PDFs's - I don't know if these were lost in purge or not, or during Photobucket death, but I think these would be nostalgic for a few members and would be something for the newer ones. Wish I had a few others backed up somewhere else too. MDC2 Battle rages on, from over9000 verse - https://www.mediafire.com/file/tj63skoy90a2l2m/MDC2_The_Battle_Rages_On.pdf/file SWF Generation supreme by BigPapa42 https://www.mediafire.com/file/vdhb4i4cui01lt8/SWF_Generation_Supreme.pdf/file SWF - Who is Richard Eisen? https://www.mediafire.com/file/avly1akndfi9u97/SWF-_Who_is_Richard_Eisen.pdf/file I had 'SWF this means war' in there too, but that file is corrupted and won't open.

Editing the database manually should be easy. Just open AEW in companies. If AEW is not there in future promotions, import it from RWC. It will have a start date, 2018 or 2019 or something, change that, so it is in one month before this database starts. Then create Dynamite in TV shows/events and just manually give them contract with TNT. Then delete the WWE/NXT contract of guys you want from WWE. On the company page, add TK and rest of the guys like Jericho, which you want on your start to AEW and give them a written contract of the length you want. Start the game and go from there, as you can balance the data in editor as you get the feel of promotion.

Mighty Mo, he has so much potential as SE white meat babyface in the world of wrestling machines. Running Wolf - he is ready to become Main Eventer, and he is finally free of being Nicky's protégé/best friend role but can he? With Rich Money and other Cult type figures being present in USPW, even as a heel, he is great. Magnum Kobe, it feels shitty he has abandoned WLW, but it was fun pushing him to being ace in PGHW. Edit - Him and Kozue having Nakamura/Okada style wars is what I imagined while booking him. Velocidad and El Heroe Mexicano - Both are great babyfaces, already established in SOTBPW, can bring ratings. El Heroe is basically the new gen El Patron (El Santo/Blue Demon C-verse alternative) ready to be made into a star. Jack DeColt - I haven't yet dabbled with CWA, but Jack with his Angry DeColt character is a lot of fun to play with, especially in CGC if you are playing with old mods.

J-Ro Alicia Strong Victoria Stone Fuyuko Higa Wanda Fish/Belle Bryden I haven't booked women's wrestlers/Luchadoras in Mexico so no idea about them.

Is there anyway to import attributes? I would like to add attributes to older converted CV mods.

Just caught up to the latest show, and it's good stuff. USPW is one of my favourite promotions in CV due to the good Vs bad old-school product and I agree with others, it's time USPW gets a bit of the edge now that they are on streaming service. (and nerf to the menace )

Excited to see a WLW here. I don't like the 2020 iteration of WLW at all, most of the fun lore has been lost, and even the reason for their regression is dodgy. Hope you can rebuild them to their former glory.

I book from PPV to PPV mostly, and it's easy - Two things are fixed for me - who is going over and who we are trying to push/build for next thing. I have 5 stories with my Main cast - All the titleholders and current challengers + their next challengers + rest of the Main event guys. Furthermore, I also have 2-3 stories which revolve around a stable or a lower card guys I am trying to push. This will be going on in background. Angle and matches fill themselves up for TV due to the stories. I get 10-15 mins left on 2 hr shows, this is where I slot in guys to see if they are good enough for TV time in the future. About stories for TV - I need a month or 3-4 shows to establish gimmicks for me. After that, wrestlers write angles and stories for themselves. For example, Trent Shaffer will always try to flirt with Babyface' valet (Not with Dawn Gemmel though, I mean who even dates law-keeper Rick Law?), he will come to the ring after a babyface has already lost and just berate him - not beatdown, just laugh at the incompetence on display. He will screw with a monster heel(s) and will blame it on the babyfaces or guy he is feuding with. (Screw with cold warriors' locker room, of course, it was on 'All American' Nicky Champion who else!). If this plan succeeds, well Trent has new allies against Nicky, if it fails, Trent will need some backup against cold warriors themselves. This way, after the first month, most of my main wrestlers get history, alliances, gimmicks, goals and this way the angles/matches write for themselves. The only time I need to actually do work is when I am actively trying to push someone from unknown, as he has no connections or history and I still don't know how momentum works in 2020.

<p>CK2 was built for GoT. Every system in GoT fits the game perfectly, not to mention the AGOT mod is really fantastic. One the best saves I have ever had was getting Baelish dynasty to the throne by schemes and marriages.</p><p> </p><p> Game is one of the biggest timesinks though, hours pass like minutes.</p>

I have tried few of the options other than the ones you have mentioned - Let the guy become singles gatekeeper while keeping his team gimmick. I have tried this in one of my Puro Saves - Natsu Miyamae retired, so his partner Shimizu became the Dolph Ziggler of my Puro company - feuding with recently graduated young lions or new foreign guys. Shimizu was an older guy too, but somehow wasn't on decline, so he settled into the NJPW dad style vet role. The second version of the tag team with same gimmick - In one of my older NWA save (Montreal aftermath) I somehow got hands on both Steiners - later on Rick retired - so I remember bringing in one of the musclehead indy guys (I don't remember the name sorry!) to tag with Scott with New tag team name - Frankensteiners. Scott settled into my UM, and the other guy got over enough to become a midcarder. Another option is to let him become a member of a stable if you don't want him/her in a prominent role. In SE companies, I always have a cult like stable or one of the 'cowardly heel hiding behind his lackeys' stable to give undercarders something to do and midcard faces someone to beat. You can add him to a stable like that. The rest of your options are great too.

<p>I use secondary belts to primarily get midcarders to upper-midcard position (well known to star). When you think he or she is ready to carry TV main events, the person drops the title to the next guy while made to look strong, and he is free to mingle with stars of the show (Major stars/stars). </p><p> </p><p> If the roster is not big enough for usual titles, I try to have a TV title in non-touring promotions. A bright young prospect who has just become recognizable has it, mostly, fighting other lower carders. You perform well enough, you get a proper feud and a real push.</p>

To everyone using metahuman, Epic games is asking me to download unreal engine and then add-on for metahuman. I am okay with downloads, it's just that everyone said it's browser based program so is this norm or not? Did you download unreal engine before or you are just using chrome/Firefox to make these renders?

You are right. I don't have the database in front of me but I thought Liberty/James Justice did all three but he never joined Supreme. When you think about it, USPW kinda replaced DAVE as the third promotion with a completely different product-set. I still suspect one of the jobbers must have done it.

<p>Is this the general wrestling thread, cause I think it's IMPACT thread and we were discussing Impact and my point was IMPACT shouldn't be doing stuff like this.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="25170" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>we all agree to disagree!

<p>When we go down the 'let's do it, wrestling is fake anyway' route, it becomes a slippery slope and I say it as guy similar in Astyn's age group. Again reason I say this is due to the fact Impact is already doing <strong>Joey Ryan's dick spot</strong>. Lucha Underground was a <strong>completely fictional </strong> story with dragons and time travellers and they did intergender wrestling pretty well and it was justified as most of the times Luchadores and Luchadoras were of similar size yet <strong>even they never did the dick spot</strong>.</p><p> </p><p> What IMPACT is going to do next?</p><p> </p><p> Priscilla kelly doing her genital spot and whatever she does in general </p><p> or </p><p> Marko Stunt or Alexa Bliss/Sasha defeating someone like Lesnar just because we can do it </p><p> or </p><p> people selling for Orange Cassidy's feather-like offence? </p><p> or</p><p> Why not just do invisible grenade spot or the thumb in the bum spot from PWG on TV?</p><p> </p><p> Now having said that, the whole storyline and Calihan has been done pretty well, it's just that her killing oVe or even going for X-division title is justified considering she is better/bigger than them anyway. but her defeating Men's heavyweight champion feels wrong, considering IMPACT is still a major company globally. </p><p> </p><p> Look at it in this way, I have no issues with women winning cruiserweight championship as it is justified, both male and female are in similar weight class and similar sizes but it shouldn't be done with the heavyweight belt of any form.</p><p> </p><p> On Indies, sure, go wild, sell for invisible man and puke on each other or have dance routines midmatch its all fun and that stuff is hilarious and just don't do it on proper wrestling company's broadcast.</p>

Dude, I started getting an ad before almost every post since yesterday. You guys need to sort it out a bit, visiting forums in unbearable.

I am just happy that we don't have a favourite or an ongoing narrative for WK this year. Other than Moxley and Tana, all the other top guys have a chance. Hell, even someone like Sanada/EVIL could win this year, I'm excited.

I was rooting for Ibushi since tournament started and was on board with whole Golden Lovers storyline playing out. The moment I saw Shibata, I was all in on Tana. What an awesome Main Event! NJPW being awesome without being predictable.

I agree with you BHK. Certain circumstances made this happen. Shinsuke elevated IC title to the Main event Scene, so it became a Main Event belt. NEVER belts weren't supposed to be what they are now. They were supposed to be a different identity but NJPW made chicken salad out of it by using it as prize for their hard hitting wrestlers. US belt was created to show the intent that NJPW wants a share in America and had right opportunity with Omega becoming a star. IC title was supposed to do that but it failed to do so. I agree that Jr and heavyweight tag division should be unified as both divisions are thin as a paper. I think the limited amount of shows help them to not overexpose their talent. Also, they have extraordinary talent under the contracts to sustain having these many singles belts. It's just a matter of time, when they will run out of combinations to put on Marquee though. All belts have their purpose, other than Openweight belt. Even trios belt serves as a match that can main event road to shows. I think one of the utubers explained the booking of NJPW belts perfectly. Gedo is a genius and thus all of the belts have ability to Main event smaller shows.
