I was in the middle of setting up a save with this mod until I saw the upcoming 3.1 update so looking forward to that, looks excellent from what I saw, keep up the good work

I downloaded and looked at the December 2020 and February 2021 databases from BTB, one had a txt file with the workers added section being empty even though importing to October 2020 added 100+ workers and the other added another smaller amount of workers with no txt file, do you happen to still have access to the older releases that may have accurate lists of changes?

Any idea on the best way to go about importing workers from the latest release to an older one, for instance October 2020 without getting a bunch of duplicates to try and deal with? even a list of workers that were added/removed and/or had name changes would be a big help

I've been slowly setting up a save for this since the update and there are a surprising amount of names I'm familiar with so I'm excited to get started after going through all the workers, plan is for Andre to dethrone Bruno then Flair to dethrone Andre to transition more in to the modern era with less big men on top and shorter title reigns that aren't always years long, I have no idea how to go about PPVs/end of month events in this era, does it make sense for them to be televised yet and if so would it be cable, subscription or PPV?

Is there a list of workers who have been removed for various reasons out there? I get wanting to remove them but it would be nice to have the option of importing some of the more notable names if someone wanted to

For interim champions would the best way to go about handling it not be create another title and call it the interim version, so both champions remain champions like in reality and then if you do the champion vs champion match you can vacate the interim title afterwards and retire/set to dormant if you want to, which would also require some editing of the TNT title lineage for this to work I also noticed that a lot of AEWs new signees seem to have short contracts (a few months) which resulted in some of the over 40s being let go even though they only recently signed, there were multiple instances of this happening in my save with Jeff Hardy and Samoa Joe being the ones I can recall

Here's a few things i've found so far, mostly subjective Workers that may need pop lowered as I feel like at least for the free agents their pop is associated with the companies they used to work for and look unlikely to return to rather than their own actual individual pop in the in game world at this time (last two I'm unsure on) Windham Adam Scherr Eric Bischoff Eva Marie Gzim Selmani & Sunny Dhinsa John Hennigan Kevin Nash Logan Paul Scarlett Bordeaux Killer Kross Scott Steiner The Great Khali Bully Ray Cain Velazquez The Sandman Ronda Rousey Renee Paquette Amazing Red and Brian Hebner should be retired I believe Bret Hart should have a contract with WWE, I remember hearing him turning down an AEW appearance because of this Io Shirai's contract should have around 30 days left Paige should be a free agent by August Lady Frost & Sasha Banks should maybe be free agents and Sasha have some heat with the company, although waiting for confirmation is probably the way to go for these. I noticed WWE goes on a hiring spree of around 10-15 workers at the start of the database including some workers they recently let go to AEW like Claudio Castagnoli for example, this may need looked at I was able to sign a surprising amount of AEW talent for a reasonable price while being Insignficiant in size(most were less than 100 per show) Diamante, Skye Blue, Griff Garrison, Marina Shafir, AQA, Julia Hart to name a few, basically anyone under 20 pop in AEW, this seems odd to me and whatever defines their price may need looked at (I assume it's pop+skills)

I haven't been able to play a long term save on TEW2020 yet due to most mods triggering my OCD in some way but I'm hoping to dive in to a Local to Global with this mod as I quit wrestling a few Manias ago then decided to catch up watching AEW only after Punk returned so I'm still a little out of the loop on the last year or so of wrestling, I will post a follow-up if I find any errors and the like, thanks for keeping this mod going.

Any chance of adding Shanna in the next update as I can't seem to find her and she apparently debuts in 06, thanks in advance.

Seeing the progress for this mod ramp up almost feels like an early Christmas gift, wishing you and everyone else eagerly anticipating this mod a safe and merry Christmas.

I was thinking of starting an AEW save from scratch with this mod and while it is 5+ years early, it's seemingly not possible to tempt TNT or Chris Jericho (if he wasn't under contract) to join at the start, IDK what the solution to this would be other than if you don't want to majorly rework broadcasters, you could give AEW TNT and any other broadcasters they have/had right from the start with a long term contract with the idea being by the time it runs out you will be large enough size to re-negotiate, is this something I would have to manually add as I can imagine you may not be able to have broadcasting deals for a company and subsequently a show that is yet to debut, if so I would love any tips for what to edit manually to make this possible and as accurate to real life with the exception of it being 5+ years early, and you could add an "If you intend to book AEW" to the original post for anyone else with the same idea.

AEW Women's & Tag Team titles are missing one title defence each from Revolution AEW Product seems incorrect, it penalises Deathmatch, Comedy etc Colt Cabana has 0 Colour Dasha Gonzales Microphone seems way too high Orange Cassidy's in-ring stats seem absurdly high (better than Pentagon Jr?) iN DEMAND expect a minimum quality of 89 per PPV which seems like an absurd expectation to try to consistently meet ITV4 require a company to be in the British Isles or Europe which AEW is not and are Low risk when AEW use deathmatches on TV

Appreciate the in-depth and probably unnecessary line-by-line response to my suggestions, there's nothing that's big enough to be put off other than a lot of AEW's non-WWE stars seem lacking in the promo department (Omega & Bucks mainly) even when comparing them to mid-card WWE talent, even though I agree they are mainly known for their wrestling more than anything else, the highly successful Being the Elite show should be enough to show they aren't just about being great in the ring, if anything I'm intrigued at the challenge of an AEW save, in terms of the Charisma of foreigners, I've just noticed Pentagon Jr's Charisma & Microphone seem quite high too based on my previous list but that's mainly because I've never really seen a mod rate foreigners so highly in the Microphone/Charisma department, although if making them struggle with English lowers the potential score for promos significantly then it's not as much of an issue, Charisma is a tough one to pin down but I always assumed the main use for it in game was for the insanely talented Microphone users who went above and beyond and didn't need a script and would therefore be able to easily get 80/90 segments for mic work rated on Charisma/Entertainment (Punk, Rock, Austin, Heyman etc), no idea how much the game actually takes in to account the kind of Charisma I was attributing to PAC. Seeing the likes of Kairi Sane have around 50 more Microphone than Jake Hager and 35-40 more than Omega seemed absurd to me but I'll have to test how much not speaking English hampers the potential rating for segments as I have not seen Kairi/Asuka/Nakamura/Pentagon etc cut promos in their language other than a handful of poorly written WWE ones that were to me no where near 80's. Is there a timetable on 1.4 as I don't wanna start up a save and put a lot of time in to it for an update to come out shortly after, thanks in advance.

Giving this mod a try as I stopped watching wrestling after WM 2020 and I'm currently catching up on AEW so it seems like the perfect modern mod to use, few notes so far nothing major will post more if I see any. A lot of the Mic & Charisma stats seem quite low on the AEW end and some surprisingly high in both AEW & WWE but they are atleast somewhat consistent, some that stuck out plus other notes are: Add good or great chemistry for IInspiration/IIconics as a team (didn't see them in the chemistry section although could've missed it) Haven't seen his current run as AEW Champion but Kenny Omega's Charisma & especially Microphone skills seem low (Bryce Remsburg has essentially the same Mic skills) Jake Hager's Mic & Charisma seem a little low, they seem like what he would have as Jack Swagger and I think he improved a lot since joining AEW PAC's Charisma seems low, I think he oozes Charisma especially as a heel Jon Moxley's Microphone & Charisma seem too high (has more Charisma than Punk?) Brandi Rhodes' Microphone seems way too high I'm guessing because she was a ring announcer but can you even emulate that in-game? if not I would significantly lower Young Bucks Microphone seem too low comparing them to WWE's roster (Uso's stood out but you can pick out a lot of the roster) Asuka's Charisma & Microphone seem way too high Dana Brooke's Microphone seems too high Kairi Sane's Microphone & Charisma seem way too high Natalya Neidhart's Microphone seems too high Ronda Rousey's Microphone seems way too high Seth Rollins' Charisma & Microphone could do with a small boost Shinsuke Nakamura's Charisma & Microphone seem too high The Undertaker's Charisma & Microphone seem way too low Give Tag Experience to Jurassic Express II, III, Omega & Page, The OC II & III This one is the most personal preference of all but maybe make AJ Lee not out of the business n give her the same hiatus as Punk but still retired and maybe an injury history? I'll do it myself anyway but seems unfair for the people who maybe rush to start the mod and don't have the chance to use her because of it.

What is PWP? quick google search showed nothing
