shadowmaster Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 <p>So, I created a new child company in Australia and created a worked called Paul Hogan (Crocodile Dundee) to be the owner of it. However, when I bring up the window for assigning a head booker and owner it doesn't list anyone.</p><p> </p><p> The worker is a copy of another fed owner with some tweaks...</p><p> I made him based in Eastern Australia which is where the child company is based. What other requirements are there to be an owner? I also have his listed as being a movie star. Should that be removed?</p><p> </p><p> Also, as a 2nd question, could anyone point me to a mod file which has a bunch of new female wrestlers in it? My game is currently in 1989 (started in 1985) and their aren't a whole lot of female wrestlers to be had. I've created some of my own, but was looking for some help.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Workers who are movie stars can leave for months at a time and that's not a suitable trait for an owner. No idea if that affects things but I'd think it should be a disqualifier. Also, make sure his owner preference settings (Style preference) fit the approximate product of the new company and that the owner isn't "too big" for it (Min Company Size). Look at the ? next to Other Genres. Paul Hogan was never a 'major movie star' (think: Cruise, DJ, maybe Will Smith at one time), even when Crocodile Dundee was an active franchise. I think giving him additional popularity in Australia would be enough to denote he was once really famous (but 'kids today', outside of Australia possibly, probably wouldn't be able to pick him out of a lineup).</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, have a look in the mod section for some spare logos, maybe change the company name to suit, or even use logos from other mods if that might work. Thanks for the reply! I have actually done that, but the grace period is quite long before you can disband them. I figured I'd ask because I couldn't find any other way to get rid of them, but I guess that's the only way.

Suplewich Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 <p>Hello, so these past few days I have been knocking my head over this broadcaster stuff. I am currently playing under a custom made Japanese company in 1987. Planning to play this long term. I currently have 40M$ and I want to make my own broadcast. In Japan, I'm at 81 popularity. Here is my popularity in the rest of the world. <img alt="s3B6Fcp.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/s3B6Fcp.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> I want to extend worldwide, at least starting with North America. My question is, what type of broadcaster should I make? And what size? I still want to gain money. I'm #2 in the world. Could I please get some help? Thank you.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would want to put NXT on there as well as my PPVs because that's really what WWE relies on now for their PPVs is it not? Just looking for the path that leads to the most profit as well as serves a realistic purpose. Thanks for your thoughts in advance guys. My understanding of Commercial versus Subscription game mechanic wise is Sub has more money potential and Comm has more popularity potential. There might be slightly different requirements to realize those gains. The most realistic for WWE Network is subscription because that's literally what it is. Having it as a commercial network would be like if WWE network were something you could just flip through on cable (like USA), which probably wouldn't fly real well with there actual commercial TV deals. And frankly, making a new commercial broadcaster isn't particularly realistic in real life for anyone that isn't already a telecommunications company (think Comcast, GE, other major networks) since you have to have enough money/pull to actually get cable providers to offer it.

CharlieRock Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Popularity question: Is a worker's popularity effected by the match's overall rating or their personal rating? Like if someone is rated A* but the match only gets a B (due to time, say) which value is used to determine the effect on the popularity?

I'd rather thought of it more like Mr. Ted Turner's role as owner of WCW. He owned Turner Networks and had access to commercial broadcasters as a result and purchased WCW to have an 'in-house' wrestling promotion to put on his networks and compete with WWE.
