[Mr.Macho]

It was great working with you and id love to be able to contribute more, if you need anything else doing then send me an email.

[Tom Bombadil]

Awesomesauce. ^_^ I'll check it out later, thanks for doing this!

[ChrisKid]

Just going to check it out and i know it will be awesome

[1234]

Really good, like all these new Bio's.

 

Was upset first when FutureLegend decided to discontinue his work on this mod, but you look like your a good replacement, and if you continur like this only good things can come.

[QFresh]

Quick note, the champions in TNA aren't set. The dates and everything are good, but each title is set to Vacant. Figured it out when Brother Ray became TNA Champion by beating Brother Devon...

Thanks will get it sorted.

[1234]

You stated you edited TNA workers popularitys, but is there a plan on doing this for all the other workers?

 

I see this as a major problem at the minute as Steve Corino is more popular than the likes of Daniels/Abyss/MCMG/etc. Thats just one example.

[King Chono]

All Japan Pro-Wrestling

Just a quick note, in almost every current mod I've seen for the past few years, Toshiaki Kawada has been with AJPW. Kawada left AJPW in 2005, so if you could fix that it would be nice.

 

Also on AJPW, brother YASSHI "retired" last year.

 

I have no idea who CJ Otis is, but I can assure you he is not with AJPW.

 

Jinsei Shinzaki doesn't work for AJPW.

 

Kendo Kashin isn't with AJPW, he should be with Inoki Genome Federation, if you've got that in game.

 

Nobutaka Araya retired in the summer of 2008.

 

Ryuji Hijitaka is under a mask and goes by the name Toshizo.

 

Silver King hasn't been with AJPW since 2007.

 

Super Crazy was only their for the Junior league, that's over and he hasn't been on any tours in several months, indicating he has left.

 

SUWAMA is all caps, same with HATE.

 

Tajiri does not work for AJPW.

 

Taka Michinoku does not work for AJPW.

 

I'm pretty certain TAKEMURA is gone from AJPW now also.

 

The Great Muta is a gimmick. I know being an American wrestling fan you don't understand, but Keiji Mutoh almost never uses that gimmick except for when he goes to foreign countries, or special occasions at home. Let's say he wrestles 100 matches a year, normally he wrestles 95-97 of those as Keiji Mutoh.

 

Also in Japan AJPW is the second biggest promotion now, as NOAH has been in a sharp decline since 2008 profit wise, which is attendance based. Misawa's death helped nothing.

 

Pro-Wrestling NOAH

Akira Hokuto, she may OCCASIONALLY do colour commentary, but I personally don't think that warrants her a contract.

 

Ippei Ota retired last year due to nagging injuries.

 

Junji Izumida no longer works there.

 

Kentaro Shiga was let go of his regular contract and only works there on a freelance basis so, maybe set him on a Touring contract. This one really puzzles me on how to properly simulate his only being brought in for a couple shows every few tours..

 

Kikutaro does not work there.

 

Kishin Kawabata was not re-signed in late 2009, thus no longer works there.

 

Mighty Inoue was also let go, but he ref'd several matches since then, so I say keep him on until I can confirm 100% he's gone.

 

Mitsuo Momota left the promotion and left the business completely after Misawa's death.

 

Tamon Honda and Tsuyoshi Kikuchi were also let go during NOAH's contract period.

 

I also noticed you've got Kobashi out for 8 weeks, but the arm injury he has has him sitting on the shelf possibly forever, so Kobashi may be taking another 1-2 year break to fully heal up.

 

 

New Japan Pro-Wrestling

Akebono hasn't been there in a while bar the Tokyo Dome Show, which was a one-shot appearance.

 

Black Tiger V left less than a month after debuting after losing a mask vs mask match against Tiger.

 

Jado and Gedo are the bookers, not Riki Choshu.

 

Hirooki Goto needs stat boosts and popularity boosts..

 

Tenzan is currently out injured, it's nagging injuries and they haven't specified when he's returning..

 

Keiji Mutoh does not work for NJPW.

 

Kota Iibushi(I don't know why there's two i's in your game.) doesn't work for New Japan.

 

Masahiro Chono has left NJPW, set his loyalty to Freelance and make him a semi-active worker lower his physical stats down a bit, like toughness, resilience, stamina, etc..

 

Mistico isn't in New Japan anymore.

 

Rick Fuller isn't in NJPW anymore.

 

Shiro Koshinaka hasn't been with New Japan in a few years.

 

Set Takao Omori to semi-active worker, he has taken over his families Inn business, and will only be wrestling occasionally.

 

Set Tesuya Naito and Yujiro to Middleweight, they have graduated to the heavyweight division.

 

I'd set the IWGP Tag Belts to be Middleweight and up only. I know there's no rule per say that says Juniors can't win the belts, but they never have in modern times. This is just to prevent over Juniors like Koji Kanemoto and Jushin Liger from default AI being teamed up and beating Yujiro and Naito because they're more over.

 

Pro Wrestling SEM

Personally I'd be in favour of this being removed completely.

 

Honestly with NOAH you could add a monthly event(Which would only happen months they're touring) called Pro Wrestling SEM and it would be the same thing.

 

 

I'll get into stats, popularity, missing workers, a few future workers for the big 3, and title histories another time. Maybe this month, maybe next.

[StealthGD]

I will look into this later tonight when the kids go to bed. This is an big issue except to probably Cornio's mom.

 

@ King Chono :- Thanks for all of that, I will update that ASAP.

Cool...its just with TNA's wrestlers popularity lowered everyone elses needs to be too. Another one i noticed Petey Williams is an International Worker, AJ Styles is a National Worker

[Sasso]

I appreciate all the work you put into this, but since you changed many of the worker's names into their WWE-copyrighted names make this mod almost unplayable, as people will now have to go through the workers and correct this oversight.

 

May I ask why you did this?

I believed that the majority of people preferred the character name as they didn't know wrestlers real names. If I am wrong then it wouldn't take long to change.

[Mr.Macho]

The Edge wasnt a great change tbh.

[franticloser]

there is no tag teams set in tna didn't check others and the impact announcers are set to mick foley and brian knobbs

[Tom Bombadil]

Granted, I haven't gotten a chance to play with it yet, but I'd prefer WWE names to real names, yes.

[Johnny Fenoli]

I believed that the majority of people preferred the character name as they didn't know wrestlers real names. If I am wrong then it wouldn't take long to change.

 

I would want them to be listed as a name that they would most likely work as outside of the WWE/TNA. So, Evan Bourne, listed as Mtt Sydal... If we dont know what they'd be, then give them their real name. So, that if they get signed by someone outside their current promotion, they dont use their WWE/TNA stage name.

95% done.

Fixed for next update.

[StealthGD]

Fixed for next update. I believe I have all present tag teams and stables. Announcers corrected in database also.

[Tom Bombadil]

Lemme make sure I'm right- you're not releasing anything else until 3/1, right? So it won't matter whether I can be patient for another week or so before starting my "real" game, if I can't make it a whole month? My desire to play the best mod possible is conflicting with my desire to JUMP IN RIGHT NOW AND GET TO BOOKAN, and the latter is about to win unless there's a crucial tweak coming out in the next couple of days. <_<

I wasn't planning on releasing until important issues where brought to light. As you can see I have fixed some already. I am working on the TNA roster as I type this. Somehow the popularity got screwed up because the values that are in there aren't ones I put in (Yes I am confused). I am fixing that and then will change all the WWE wrestlers back to the real name (Doing that with TNA while I fix popularity) and then will release the next update. So expect another release by Friday at the latest.

 

I will make sure this becomes one of the best mods out there and will work overtime to make sure that happens.

[Tom Bombadil]

Woo, thanks! This will force me to take the time to thoroughly playtest the backyard fed I'm adding, anyway. >_>

[PhenomenalPat]

Don't know if this has been adressed yet. (Wasn't mentoined) but the first New Power Rising forgot arguably the biggest Media Network out there.

 

Viacom Media owns MTV, MTV2, MTV Tres, MTV U, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, TV Land, CMT, VH1, G4, Paramount Network and Spike TV.

 

Just a minor thing, but it may help.

[StealthGD]

Okay new update in first post.

 

Edits made:

Reworked TNA popularities as they seemed to be low in first beta.

TNA Champions, tag teams, announcers and stables added.

Edited popularities on 50+ wrestlers whose popularity was to high or was right a sometime ago when they were with top promotions.

Edits made to Japanese promotions after King Chono's feedback

I did edit names more towards stage names than real names (sorry to those who I disappointed.)

Added some stations to Viacom networks.

 

Again this is a beta and will probably always be a beta as changes will always happen as time goes on.

I aim for next update to be after ECW disappears but if major issues arrive I will do my best to fix them ASAP. I am sure I have missed something so please show me my errors so I can fix them.

 

I am also still looking for request of angles, story lines and match types you want added.

 

Regards,
