RELEASE! 1996 The War Begins


Recommended Posts

Alrighty then, here is the long-awaited follow up to my previous 1996 mod!

 

Thanks to ... Justtxyank, Hive, Nightshadex, Grimmas, Magnus D, Nachtfalter, TNAFever, Flamesnoopy and D. Boon's Ghost who all in some direct or indirect way helped me get this done. Also thanks anyone else who may have helped out along the way on this mod or the previous one who has slipped my mind at this moment.

 

Now that the thanking is out of the way, I guess you want to know what's in this mod?

 

1801 total workers so you never run out of guys to job out!

496 Yet to Debut workers so you can keep playing up until the present day!

658 Alter egos! Yes, 658 of the best, worst and weirdest alternate gimmicks your favourite wrestlers have used!

27 active promotions covering every game area but Australia! (but you can start your own down under because now the Aussie indy workers of the mid 1990s are included! You don't wanna know what I did to research that!)

31 Yet to open promotions to keep the game running well into the 2000s

And a (mostly) historical pic pack in the DOTT pic style. The majority of workers have a picture that is as close to the era as we could find to add to the genuine mid 90s atmosphere!

 

A few things are different from the old TEW 08 version. Firstly potentials should now all be set to random. If any aren't let me know. Secondly while stats are not majorly different, there has been a fair bit of "Cornellversing" as I have learnt a bit more about TEW since last time around and made lots of minor changes accordingly. I've also done my best to make sure things sim reasonably sensibly. The game controlled promotions do still do a few odd things from time to time, but overall it seems to sim fairly well.

 

Apart from that angles are a little light as I haven't done much to them, so you might want to think about importing your favourite angles data from somewhere. Also, you might want to go find some logos or like .... make them or something! :p

 

Otherwise though, this badboy should be ready to go. As always any comments, criticism or error reporting is welcome provided you actually try playing the mod first. :D

 

Hope yall enjoy.

What suggestions do you have as far as other pic packs (promotions, belts, TV shows, etc.) for this mod?

 

To be honest I am not really up on all the pics for networks/belts etc as I've had my face in data and wrestling footage for way too long. Anyone else have suggestions?

 

I know Toggs logos for promotions are pretty good and will cover most of the companies though.

playing as AJW looks amazing so far one tiny lil thing, Tomoko Watanabe has no bio in her AJW contract.

 

Ah that's what happens when you add contracts before bios, I'll fix that one up for if/when I do another release.

 

Thanks for the comments guys, it's also encouraging to hear that it's not just the big promotions getting played either. Tough break though DeadCeleb, you could get a working agreement with WWF and see if you can bring in the big name WWF star Border City Wrestling used off and on around this era - Steve Lombardi! :p

Turned goals off, got new ones. Can't hire spot monkeys. That's cool I only lose Jeff Hardy.

 

BUT! go to create a working agreement with ECW, and Chuck doesn't want to be allied with other promotions. That game is dead. Lol.

 

Ah, if you want an easier life as BCW go into the editor and make Chuck Fader not be isolated in regards to pacts. Can't remember why I made him isolated originally but I suspect it was probably to make the game more challenging on people like yourself :p

I might just go with it actually. It'll be interesting to have to keep having a roster turnover whenever I get poached.

Why thankyou Genadi, I just wish I could be as prolific with mods as you.

 

I've said this before and I'll say it again, no BH no Genadi. You gave me my big break so to speak :p Just because I'm pumping out the mods now doesn't take away from the fact I'm an Eminem to your Dr Dre. My fave mod (Montreal Aftermath) still had traces of you all over it! Just like Dre you lay the base and I just put some hooks to em :p K analogy over :o
