Computica Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 X-CVE Database 05/03/17 X-CVE Pictures Version 2 *Use Version WinRAR 5.0+ to unpack the picture database -Character Renders in PNG Format Here- This is the most recent default database for WMMA4, combined and tweaked with CVE, O+, Eyeball Pack, Weidtverse, CFS, & many others. All duplicate renders are removed and all fighters have unique renders. Many late fighters have there debut time moved earlier to be anywhere between 2001 to 2010. I advise that you use this mod as a base mod. You should be extremely strict when importing into this mod as I've most likely added it within reason. Detailed Description Incoming... What's Left: -About 40 Male fighters need unique renders -Clean up free renders -Clean up and add female free renders -Clean up Agers -Clean up Belts -60 Fighter have no Bio at all -30 Random Companies have no Bio at all -Clean up Fighters with too many Attributes -Unique Character Count is at 2912! The next 100 unique characters will debut after 2001 in areas where there just isn't much action yet in places like Africa & Australia. Let's hit 3000 before WMMA5! Future Changes: -More Achievements -Add belt images -TV only broadcasters need new opening and closing dates -Add bio for eras -Add more narratives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Thanks for sharing this! My only gripe seems to be that you've added elite tier (95+ stats which should be superrare) women that already debut before the start of the game. Why? They will just own the existing official C-verse stars. Their profiles look like they've been generated by the game itself, which seems hardly fitting for an elite fighter (I tolerate them for cans). That was also my only gripe against Asaemon's changes in the original CVE: He added a couple of elite men who just beat up the cream of the C-verse crop (at least in my games). It seems... unnecessary. I took great cares not to edit the default setup and had them debut at the start, but with reduced stats. That being said: many will enjoy it as it's a fresh take. I'm not criticising, just voicing my dislike for it. But I can always just move them back myself. Seems like you added a custom name here and there... Frickin' 70K names? Really? I'd also advise to change or even delete the narratives for WEFF. They are scheduled to change to 5x5 main events (non-title), but have a default 7x3 title fights, which seems a little off. Good god it takes long to sim a year. I like the idea of WEFF having the child companies. They produce about 3 events a year which seems realistic. edit: - The database also seems to suffer from the earlier "attribute bloat" issue. Sarah Vaughan, for instance, has a background in judo and muay thai. - There's a woman named Manolita that has a background in boxing but the profile says judo, and she doesn't have a profile. She's ranked nr 11 P4P but comes in at 0-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computica Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 Thank you for replying, if you make any changes to the database upload it for me and I'll make it the new version. I didn't change the stats around too much personally but I try to give fighters strengths and weaknesses. Then I would test them in the fight picker. For everything else I wanted fighters to train with there teams but I'll make sure that current C-Verse champions have a good running. As for attribute bloat I didn't know that was a thing, my loading times are OK. What I will admit is that I carefully imported CVE characters so that is probably why your seeing similar changes as in Asaemon's version. Yeah I added custom names here and there, the 70,000K names are necessary if you truly want to see real names in local fights based in that area. Yeah the Narratives aren't fully fleshed out just yet. I'm glad you looked at some of the ones I added. I'll adjust the WEFF Narrative if you decide not to up any changes of the DB. WEFF having the 3 child companies is quite awesome I agree, I'm glad to see many of the females you added tally up there match numbers. I was thinking I should limit there popularity level but so far I haven't played over 4 years to see too much of a climb. I'll fix any attribute errors you find, feel free to add profiles and send them to me. There a quite a few people that still do not have any profile info at all. EDIT: -UPDATE 1 I updated the DB again, I'll be making periodic changes and minor updates like this without warning (or notes) a lot on my free time. None of my minor changes are really worth starting a new game over. I want this to be a base mod that people can change how they want. -UPDATE 2 I replaced the WEFF 1 - 3 narratives with 4 new ones, updated the flavor text and headlines. I made all 3 of WEFF's child organizations different from each other in rule set with appropriate bio. This should allow the 3 smaller companies to stand on there own and have there own appeal. I decided to split AWFC into 3 weight Classes instead of a singular roster. LVFF is based on Las Vegas show entertainment and like wise set to saturate with a singular maxed out roster. Let me know what you think of the changes. -UPDATE 3 Made adjustments for starting wealth for companies with no roster. A few characters had there name value adjusted.

Guest deathcroc Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Very interesting. I was starting to do the same thing, but now I don't have to! I did notice that the free pictures for women are not in the pack (any file that started with "f_") Edit - Nevermind, I just noticed your note about it in your to do list. Sorry about that.

Blackman Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 The default free pictures for women have all been assigned by the mod, so it's pointless to add them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computica Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 If you all decide to add a picture from a pack in the forum I extremely advise you check the body & face folders for duplicates using VisiPics. I haven't posted a another update yet because I've been busy making new renders for unique males. Some of the male renders are down right horrible quality so let me know which characters could use a face lift. Only 2 - 4 twins Actually share a render with another twin, I forget the names, but I'll make them brand new renders when I get the chance. I'm also open to any suggestions you all may have. ... I did notice that the free pictures for women are not in the pack (any file that started with "f_") Edit - Nevermind, I just noticed your note about it in your to do list. Sorry about that. I had to separate them until I sorted out the duplicates that should of been alternates and agers for unique fighters. I'll release an update/add-on to the pictures when I'm done sorting them out. Edit 2 - I just wanted to let you all know 'm still in the process of making/sorting my render Library in Daz3D Studio. I plan to make at least 4 new renders for fighters a week.

MOS182 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Downloaded the mod and I'm currently using it atm thoroughly enjoying it I've noticed a large number of regens coming up with no images for their character, any chance you can remove all the characters with no pictures in the next update to this mod? Hopefully that should fix the amount of no picture regens. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By "regens" do you mean the 'new' characters who are randomly generated during game play or the characters who are re-generated from characters with pictures from the start of the game after they died off? In my current work database there are 37 (male) active fighters with no images which will get assigned pictures and 15 others that will eventually get images. -OR- Are you talking about the Free Pictures that don't have a picture assigned to them yet?

The new characters randomly generated during game play. Is there not a way to avoid them from being assigned no pictures? I've got tons of female fighters with no pictures, takes away from the immersion I've seen at least one fighter who had a write up but no picture, not sure if you've missed out on assigning him one, can't remember his name but if you need it and I run across it again, I'll keep an eye out. I know he's signed to Sigma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computica Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 That's already on my to do list on the OP. There's over a hundred free female renders I need to sort out for duplicates, and 155 more unused renders that aren't even assigned to anything. They'll be added on as an update for the Picture DB later so your current game will utilize them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Computica Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Hey Revoz, if I don't update the DB today I'll do so tomorrow night. I should of been did so its just there are huge pre history updates in the mod for the female promotions. I'm just busy making more renders for the new fighters that have been added. Meet Calantha Maillet: http://tw.greywool.com/i/3w5YZ.png Calantha Maillet is a Canadian athlete who entered C-Girl in 1994. She is one of several females known to have studied more advanced forms of Judo before MMA became quite popular. Before the start of her MMA career she practiced strictly with males since at the time there wasn't any major female promotion at the time. Known as one of the original C-GIRL fighters, she climbed the ranks until there closing in 1997. Even though she is quite the fighter in a ring match, she has yet to compete seriously in a cage.

Blackman Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Now that is an great render. I'd prefer it if it was a future addition as the current C-verse already is a good representation of the 'beginning of MMA'. It makes no sense to overpopulate the women as few will have a job anyway. But your render, your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computica Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Don't worry Blackman I simulated the female side of MMA's C-Girl, LVFF, AWFC, and GFE. I needed to see in a real simulation who would really succeed and fail. The current leaders of Women's MMA were largely unchanged. It's hard for me to explain here to be honest. I added more so the precursor to WEFF. Of course WEFF is left untouched, but this was a great learning experience for me to see what actually works well for female Promotions. Girl Fight Entertainment was added late 1997 when the female Japanese Fighters started to debut. It may have been Criminal for me to add a atomweight division to them, I'll have to think about it. Also only the important generated characters were imported. Specifically the ones who did great against created characters in matches. C-Girl was the only promotion I had issues with because it debuted much earlier than the females in the database. AWFC was the most successful female promotion next to GFE. Also each of the companies start with semi full to full rosters on game start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Computica Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 Sorry for the Double post I had to introduce an atom weight fighter to you all, Emi is the #2 atom weight in the mod: http://tw.greywool.com/i/qaliP.png Emi 'Easter' Island is a small Japanese female fighter who signed up to GFE's Lightweight Division in 1999. Jiu Jitsu is her strongest style of fighting, though she has some boxing experience. Emi is known to be a slow yet heavy hitting precise puncher aiming to knock out her opponents with every strike. Even though quite versed at Jiu Jitsu, she is extremely well trained at leg locking her opponents. She kept up a good fighting streak in the beginning of her career until she was beat by Kyoto Masuzoe at GFE 25: Ragnarok in October 1999.

Computica Posted March 16, 2016 Author Share Posted March 16, 2016 @Derk06 I really don't know man, I'll most likely release the updated database first since the important stuff is in. I honestly just need to run more tests on it just to make sure it is how I intend for it to work. Plus I made some changes I felt for the better that some people may not like straight out the box. I'm glad you all are letting me know that you all want more updates I'm just not hearing too many suggestions from you all other than from Blackman (which I do appreciate). In the meantime I'll keep posting teasers: http://tw.greywool.com/i/fn-EJ.png Azalea 'Stunna' Robison is an American competitor from North Carolina. She is well trained in wrestling in which she played on a collegiate level until she graduated in 1995. In 1996 she moved to Las Vegas, Nevada after signing her first professional MMA contract with LVFF. Azalea is considered a LVFF trailblazer with a well rounded skill set perfect for the MMA arena. Pro Record: 9-4-0-0 If you all are making personal changes to the DB let me know; I'm curious how you all are playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
