Good point. Cat Quine is 'average' with finances while Lioness Mushashibo (CEO of my developmental company) is 'flashy' (I set that when I decided she'd be CEO). Cat doesn't seem to be tight-fisted though. She borrows alliance titleholders frequently. I'll see what they do with the alliance's midcard title (which is now on Jessica Bunny), if anything at all.

 

I know how you feel. My alliance has a male and a female title. The female title has been used 8 out of the last six months (all alliance companies run monthly only, so this is pretty frequent). The male's title has been stripped because it wasn't defended in so long, and it's about to be stripped off the current holder for the same reason.

[James Casey]

In my RW 1991 game, the NWA World title gets defended 2-3 times a week, and changes hands every 8-10 defences.

 

I've changed event frequency from often to normal to see if that changes things - I don't necessarily want the NWA titles moving around quite so much if I'm leaving them to the AI to arrange.

Hi all!

 

Small question. I'm currently playing the 1992 Eye of the Storm mod. I took over another company as a child company, they're currently a member of the NWA though and as my company isn't I'd like them to follow suit.

 

Is there any way to remove them from the alliance? I've tried browsing through the menus and even looking through the editor, can't seen to find a way

I know B shows don't increase Company popularity, but if I do B shows in a new territory will it increase the popularity of the wrestlers that perform in the show in that territory?

That is one of the good ways to use them, to get exposure for your lower card. It's been a while since I played (might get back to it now that the TEW fever is back) so I can't really remember if there is a cap, or what kind of gains, but yes, you can use those shows to get your undercard over, if i remember correctly. Run an angle between, let's say The Rock and Heath Slater, and see the differences in popularity in the editor after the show that Slater will probably get.</p>

[Mike7273]

I was thinking of using it to get worker popularity in the new region and when I get enough, do some A shows and see if I can get high enough for a TV contract.

But remember you won't get losses or gains to your company from the B shows. But to increase the worker's popularity in a region, yeah that should help. I know someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can indeed use them that way. Which is realistic.</p>

The popularity gains are still popularity gains. </p><p> </p><p> One of my favorite "tricks" with TEW2016 is the low popularity mechanic and development talent. For workers who have very low or no popularity, just being on events for the main roster will see their popularity shoot up quickly. So borrowing developmental talent for B shows is an easy way to do it. Even if they are losing to main roster talent, or appearing in angles. It helps out the child promotion because having more over talent is a good thing for them, and it makes the worker more ready to debut on the main roster. I've done this a lot with WCW talent on the WCW Lives mod, where young talent like Samoa Joe and Bryan Danielson start with very very low popularity.</p>

I do this often in the 2K1 WCW Lives mod to gain popularity in Canada, because the starting popularity levels aren't enough to get Nitro on there. They aren't broadcast anywhere so even if its pulling a C grade or something, its enough to grow the popularity of the company there as well as the workers involved, and you can a 1 hour show with just a couple of matches.</p>

Do you have to start a Tour schedule? and is it an A show?

I usually would name the WCW something like WCW Maple Leaf Tour buts really just another event. I would have to be careful where it takes place, though. </p><p> </p><p> But yes, its an A show. The upside to that is that it will grow you company popularity in that region, not just the worker popularity. The downside is that you have ensure the show is good enough to so. But if your popularity isn't that high there, its not typically problematic. I could headline the WCW one with a main eventer against a midcarder, or two upper midcarders facing off. Can just put three tag matches on there to build tag experience. It was quick and easy booking.</p>

[Embee]

There is just one way that I know of:

 

First, cap your child company to Local.

 

Second, make sure every other member of the alliance is at least Regional.

 

Third, add a new player as owner of one of the other companies and expel your child company.

 

This should do the trick.

 

Strange, still couldn't get it to work!

 

Oh well, severed the relationship and formed another one, with the company I originally wanted to take over anyway

 

Thanks for the help!

Can anyone post the default trainers for the WWA Dojos? I edited them in my game, and don't want to DL the original game data to check who they are.

<p>Ok, I've wondered how this works for a long time, how the heck is the power 500 formed? It isn't by average match rating and it says its done by match ratings but what match ratings? Is it by one match? Or something, someone please answer.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, I've run into a problem where I'll vacate a title and when I put it on someone new the title history doesn't say vacant. What can I do to fix this?</p>

Is there a limit to how many people a manager can manage? Is there diminishing returns at some point?

[Munit]

If im using a real world current mod and want to push someone like Jay White in NJPW to win the world title, how do I do this? Do I just have him beat Main Eventers all the time until he rises in pop?
