If he’s working for 2 companies, how is he exclusive?

We can agree to disagree here, that’s cool. FWIW though, the issue legally wouldn’t be with the contract he already has, it’s with the new one he’s signing, he’s signing an exclusive contract with a company he can’t be exclusive with, the terms of his initial contract stipulate he has to work until the end of it, so can’t actually be exclusive until that’s done, so should t be able to sign an exclusive contract elsewhere and then work for 2 companies whilst under an exclusive deal

That’s the point lol, he’s not exclusive, and not able to be exclusive, thus shouldn’t be able to sign an exclusive deal until the final month of his contract

<p>I was really excited about the contract types when they were announced, the idea of being able to have someone on a non-exclusive written deal that was iron-Vlad was awesome, thought we might be able to simulate AEW style contracts and have people work handshake deals whilst not being signed away by the big guys. Sadly doesn’t seem to work that way.</p><p> </p><p> If you set the two companies as being at war, will the AI still try and offer contracts too the guys in Non-exclusive Written deals?</p>

I know currently we have the feature to set events to having all 1v1 matches, or the main event being a battle royale etc. It would be awesome to have a setting to make the main event a specific match type from the database. As a real world example, you’d be able to select Main Event is Hell in a Cell Match, or for the Royal Rumble, Main Event is a Royal Rumble Match. Just so that when the AI is running companies you can see these matches happening at events you’d expect them to happen at

I’ve not been through every comment in here, so apologies if this has been brought up already. I’ve found a ‘work around’ for being able to simulate things like Shawn, Brock and The Rock leaving the business. Within the in-game editor it’s possible to remove all active roles for a wrestler, so unticking the boxes for wrestler/occasional wrestler etc. The character then won’t feature at all for said company. You can then adjust their contact if you want them to leave the company, or just have them stay there doing nothing picking up a wage if you prefer. Then upon their return to the business you can re-tick the relevant boxes and have them come back into the wrestling world. Not a big fan of work arounds myself but sure beats any alternative I’ve found to date

Cheers man, about 2/3s of the way through now, so not too long left

<p>I'm a long time forum lurker, really got into TEW late, but sank a silly amount of hours into TEW16. I've always thought about doing my own skin for the game but never found the time around playing, the two week extension has given me that time. I've finally started work on one, and decided to post a few screens on here.</p><p> </p><p> Hoping to release in time for launch, if not a tiny bit after</p><p> </p><p> <a href="https://imgur.com/a/l1tTi6K" rel="external nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/l1tTi6K</a></p><p> <a href="https://imgur.com/a/3RdWcSt" rel="external nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/3RdWcSt</a></p><p> <a href="https://imgur.com/a/eap9Ay1" rel="external nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/eap9Ay1</a></p><p> </p><p> Loading Screen - <a href="https://imgur.com/a/12tr6vD" rel="external nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/12tr6vD</a></p>

I appreciate this, and it’s not a criticism, just wondered if there was a way of creating an off period where it didn’t run, like you could in 16, or if it’s not possible. Just easier to get a straight answer instead of searching for something that might not be there.

I know the way touring works was changed for the new game, and I love the fluid nature of being able to stop and start tours whenever during any month or week. Just a quick question about this though, on 16 during off air months a created TV show would also stop running. As of yet I’ve not found a way to do this on the current game, TV shows keep running every week of the year, even between tours. Is this a by product of the new fluid system and not having a defined off month, or am I missing a different way to run this?

Thank you

Hey, is there a list of all the products included in the new game anywhere? I’ve seen a list of additional ones that were put in but can’t seem to find them all anywhere?

This part makes it sound different to that... “ There is one potential drawback with this new scheduling system and that's that because the schedules get set-up at the very start and aren't then checked each month it means that AI companies don't have the ability to alter their events over time (with the exception of the TV Or schedule that I outlined above)” which would mean the schedule only changes when/if they have a TV deal. So am AI company starting off small would never develop a second monthly event unless they get a tv deal? In which that would change how they run their shows.

I’ve a question that goes all the way back to the early scheduling post. If each companies events etc are set up on day 1 and not the beginning of each month, does this mean they’ll never change? Will a company never explain running 2 shows a month as they grow? Or is this something that will be assessed by each company still as the game progresses?

Are we still going to be using the 4 weeks a month calendar system?

Really like the mod, works quite well, still seem to get quite a few takedown attempts over 10 rounds though, did anyone find a way to combat this at all?

<p>I’m not sure how much work this would mean, but maybe company size could be looked at for a few US feds, with the news about AEE forming a lot of feds are starting to sign talent to exclusive deals, MLW ROH and Impactvare all companies who are signing people up on multi year deals.</p><p> </p><p> I know it could not be viable in TEW terms, but would add a certain level of realism when it comes to playing in the US by the time the next update is out</p>

MLWs deal with beinSport should be a TV deal, currently their TV show doesn’t air anywhere on the mod. I’d also add an additional deal with Yiutube for it, as all shows are uploaded to there after
