If I am running a product that doesn't require storylines, are there any reasons to run them? Will they provide bonuses to matches if there is a hot storyline?

Was the 6 months negotiations removed in this game when you drop to Cult from National? My game somehow dropped TCW from 79 to 75 pop causing me to drop to Cult and ruining everything im doing. I need to recover my game if this 6 months still happens

If I am running a product that doesn't require storylines, are there any reasons to run them? Will they provide bonuses to matches if there is a hot storyline?

 

No.

[dnmt]

No.

 

So the bonuses only apply if your product needs storylines in the first place? I read in this thread that storylines do provide slight bonuses if they have enough heat, but it didn't specify about the product.

Is there anyway to influence whether someone tones up, gets flabby, or so on?

 

I made a gamble and asked Amazing Fire Fly to go up to lightweight in hopes that his SQ would increase (not a huge gamble, since he's likely to always just be a tag wrestler in my game) and he ended up coming out the other end flabby. I've had other guys in my game change body type (like Kirk Jameson, who now has a SQ of 100 just by going muscular), and I was wondering if there was any way to kind of nudge of them tone up.

 

Would the get into shape option for development help, or is that just for stamina?

[darth_cuscus]

I'm not sure if its a bug. But the storylines in one of my brands are going down from A to B+. I advanced the storylines on a PPV on the Sunday. Then I ran a B show on the Monday and then after that the storyline heat started to decrease. I thought the storyline penalties only occur after not advancing them after two or more shows and I thought that B shows don't count?

<p>What size company for TV?</p><p> </p><p>

Does anyone know the minimum size your company has to be to be eligible for TV shows? I have some small broadcasters that are willing to show my events, but they say I'm too small to have a weekly tv show.</p>

What I usually do is put a minus sign or something in front of the company name to change it slightly, then re-use the name. In my game I figure that the USPW would bring back SCCW and use them as a developmental fed, but it's taken so I just make the original "-Southern Championship Class Wrestling" instead.</p>

Some real world mods have stations that allow for Small or even Local feds if you have good enough Production & popularity in a certain region. Usually it's just a dumpy, little local station with Tiny range in 1 region but some make Youtube (and Vimeo & the other sites) easy to get on as well</p>

Title belt

 

Playing as WWE, I decided to revive WCW as a child company. By revive, I mean I created an entirely new company using WCW logos.. I did not reactivate the original defunct WCW. Now how do I assign WCW their original title belts, considering that I have ownership of them all as WWE? I tried editing the belts in the database but it wouldn't let me change company ownership to my child company WCW. Is it possible for me to give these championship belts to my child company? I feel like I'm missing something here. Thanks guys!

How do I reopen a company that is closed?

 

I am trying to play a real world chronicles WCW revival game and was just going to create wcw. When I try to though it says it's already a company in the database.

 

I can see the company but I don't see the option to reopen it

IIRC there should be a date the company was closed at. Remove it and it should be active again.

I tried that. It didn't work

<p>Road agent</p><p> </p><p>

Hi. So I know a good road agent needs psychology first and respect second. But what is the advantage of a good road agent? I was using the $400 per appearance Ayumi who is good and now I'm using the $2000 per appearance Tom Prichard which should be a great road agent.</p><p>

My matches don't get any better rating and I don't get any more information. so what am I spending my money on?</p><p> </p><p>

I the intel (like in-ring performance) of a good road agent more accurate? do the workers have less off-days?</p>

<p>What is the purpose of a user avatar in the game? We're playing a multiplayer game and we're in the same alliance with alliance titles.</p><p>

Because an avatar cannot go to another company we were not able to defend the alliance title with an avatar.</p><p>

So I went into the mod database and changed my avatar and unselected that it's a user avatar.</p><p>

Not only can I now go to another show with this character, I can still keep playing with the same company and have not encountered any issues yet.</p>

How in the world do you use loading screens and skins???</p>

[equinox10]

<p>Hello everyone, question about momentum and win-loss records. So in my current save I've hired a lot of talented young guys and I can't push them all at once. I also have some veterans I like for various reasons and I don't want them to be forever damaged by lots of losses.</p><p> </p><p>

Is there a point of no return with losses and bad momentum where you can't ever push the worker properly again? Does this have something to do with their current push i.e. keeping them as enhancement talent or opener prevents them from being permanently scarred by lots of losses? I just don't want to permanently ruin someone who doesn't deserve it because of a bad losing streak. </p><p> </p><p>

Thanks for any help.</p>
