Hive Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 @Hive...did you rename Stevie Ray or did the computer? Either way I just noticed he's wrestling in ECW as "Jive Soul Bro" EPIC! It's sort of a mistake, because I hadn't thought through exactly how alter egos were used by the AI when I first did the mod. He's supposed to use that name *sometimes*, but the way alter egoes work he will use it every time he's employed by AI and never use his real name. true except i got the same ratings warning for them on TNT so i hope i can keep it but if worse comes to worse and we loose TV altogether we will switch to a weekly 3 hr show and bump PPV's to 4hrs i have the roster to support but really hope it doesn't come to that Perhaps you should consider extending Nitro to a slightly smaller tv network then, to make sure that it's at least aired *somewhere*?

rvdjrv2002 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 apoligies all around for slowing us down again my computer has decided to try my patience again this facing a potential hard drive failure i formatted my license is secure so as soon as i get my video card operating properly i will begin reinstalling everything i have a card booked in principle just need to run it in game that will be priority 1 once everything is back up and running at 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hive Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Ah, so that's why I haven't received the save in nearly 1 month now... Oh well, more time for my new mod - and more importantly, Mass Effect 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvdjrv2002 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 looks like the computer is gonna have to go in again much to my dismay the hard drive failure warning has returned so im gonna have to take it in to get a new one put in so i may be a bit before i get back on.

Hive Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 <p>Got a nice B for Impact due to a makeshift main event match as replacement for the one I had been planning on for a month, but had to cancel as I forgot that 3 vs 3 vs 3 matches are not possible... doh. But I can't complain, that one surely wouldn't have rated me the A that this match did. So all is good.</p><p> </p><p> Save is off to Jackknifed for decisions.</p><p> </p><p> Oh, and Thunder officially got axed.</p><p> </p><p> Btw... could you guys maybe consider *not* spamming the database with *unnecessary* angles and match types? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> They really clogg it up, making it harder to find what you're looking for... at least for me, who can't always remember the name of the angles I need and therefore have to look through them all. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Not trying to be an arse here or anything, but you don't have to save angles you create for one-time uses all the time (for instance, I don't see "Tom Prichard flips Buddy Rogers the bird while eating a piece of strawberry pie on January 4 1996" as an angle that's has a lot of re-use potential) - and I have seen a lot of duplicate match types recently. What is a "1 vs. 1 Fatal Four way" match anyway, and why is it better than the standard 1 vs. 1 vs. 1 vs. 1 match? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> Anyway, good to have the game rolling again.

Even Spanish would be stretching it a wee bit imo, as Wikipedia says only 5.2 % of the Atlantians in 2010 were of Hispanic descent. It shouldn't be more than 'some', at least. But then again, that's just my opinion - and I'm definately open for arguments. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I hate being a cog in your wheels, but the way I see it putting Japanese there would be kind of an exploit... as it has virtually no basis in reality and would only serve to ignore the game mechanics of language barriers and make Japanese wrestlers perform better. I find it highly interesting that you're going for a 'huge' modern approach btw, that should shake things up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hive Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 Whatever you say, Eric... after all, controversy creates cash, right? On a sidenote, if our game ever gets that far (and I hope it does, because I'm really enjoying it!)... then I will call upon the hordes of hell to dismantle and destroy anyone who prevents me from signing Batista when he appears. He's one of my favourite roid monsters of all time, I really like him for some very strange reason...
