Now I'm thinking I should set up these loans, never use the wrestler I acquire (can't really afford the $750 just to import enhancement talent), and still have my prospects benefit from extra matches. Then I can just let the time expire on the loan and set up a new one after that.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> More than likely, yes. There is a time limit on the loan -- it is different for the number of matches/appearances you have, but let's say you have the other talent for sixty days. IF you don't book the talent you borrowed in that time frame, they leave no harm no foul. There is still a good chance that the talent you loaned out will be booked and return to you with the extra experience.</p>

Plus, any user-created and owned venue is automatically a hotbed which means it will draw slightly better and have a slightly hotter crowd than a regular building.</p>

I -believe- that it's a 40% discount, but I don't recall for sure. I know I was looking to see if I'd make money if others used my venue, but I didn't see anything of that nature.</p><p> </p><p> The other benefit (at least in my experience) is that the venue you create is considered a wrestling hotbed, with all of the benefits of that as well; slightly higher attendance, for one.</p>

Fairly sure sex appeal is in there too, and think it’s possibly only for people under a certain age.</p>

2. You still have to pay travel as far as I know.

 

Wanted to follow up on this: I just did a test, and you do not have to pay travel costs for loaned wrestlers in a talent trade (not sure about alliance).

 

I clicked Analysis after setting up a show, then switched out a $400 PPA wrestler in my home area with a $400 PPA loaned wrestler from the UK (I'm in US). No change in cost of talent.

A wrestler is set to stay in rehab for 6 more months but his contract is up for renewal and will expire in a month. If I don't renew his contract, will he stay in rehab?

[BleedTheFreak_23]

<p>Is there any good ways/work arounds to getting promotions to change their name or re-open without losing the set to open date?</p><p> </p><p>

I'm working on a mod that takes place in June 2014, so while I really want to get GCW in the game, I'd have to have it be JCW at first. All I can do is change it in game, correct? </p><p> </p><p>

Another example would be MLW. It was originally opened in 2002, but came back in 2017. I can set it to open in 2017, but I'd lose the 2002 open date too. No way to fix this either, right?</p><p> </p><p>

I know there is the basic answer of just ignoring the open dates and such, but I was wondering if I'm missing something obvious, or if there's just no way to do it yet.</p>

Do managers in AI companies have clients or am I free to sign any random pairing from a company and make that the reality?

Does worker overness impact house show attendance? If I sign all of my main eventers to not work house shows, will the attendance go down or is it just based on company overness?

[soxfan93]

Does the amount a worker is used have any effect on how quickly they reach time decline? Does using them sparingly actually lengthen their career?

[Munit]

If im doing Black Canvas Grappling when they first open and have no tv deal, should I just do the monthly scheduled shows to eventually get to cult.. or do a weekly event as well?

I am playing the 1991 mod and Eric Bischoff is the owner and booker of my devleopmental company with an Exclusive PPA. He just accepted an offer with another company, but did not leave my developmental. He has an exclusive and non-exclusive contract. Should that be possible? In the editor, he still has over a year left on his deal with me. I noticed it in RWC with Alberto. I was playing as Impact, and he was willing to negotiate, but I never went through with the signing.

A question on alliances: I want to set up a women's wrestling alliance so all the women's only promotions could work together (it's primarily for talent trading).

 

I've considered inviting the Integrated companies, but I want to be sure of something: Will the other women's only promotions start using the male talent from those Integrated companies or will they only use women in trades?

 

Not worried about the women going to Integrated companies and wrestling men, just wouldn't want to "mess up" the AI-controlled women's promotions by putting them in a spot where they use men.

Only Women's Promotions will always remain that way, unless manually changed

[Mr_Hendrix]

I'm doing a RW mod with PROGRESS and I'm tired of being dismantled by the Regional Battles system and RevPro.

 

My production levels are at the very least, on par with everyone else expect for NXT UK but my shows keep getting dinged for having lower production values. Now, I assume that every other British company is getting the same penalties, yet RevPro is consistently putting on shows in the 60-75 range while my highest show ever is a 48. To be fair, they are using talent from NJPW and British stars like PAC and ZSJ (my 2 biggest stars are Scurll and Aldis) so I can understand them putting on some amazing cards.

 

BUT one of their lowest rated recent shows was a 57, with the main event being a 59. And my best and most recent show was a 48, but with a main event of 61(Scurll vs. Mandrews for the title).

 

Obviously there's a lot of context missing, but these numbers just don't make sense to me. Can someone help me out? Should I just pay WWE lump sums to use a wrestler or two for every card to give myself a boost?

[rktaker]

is there a war games match in the game? if there is what is it under?

[Bigpapa42]

is there a war games match in the game? if there is what is it under?

 

It depends on the mod, as each mod can have different match types. If there isn't one in the mod, you can easily create one.

[Matt_Black]

is there a war games match in the game? if there is what is it under?

 

In the Default data, it's 4v4 Cage Wars and 5v5 Cage Wars. There are also some variations, like Total Mayhem or one of the House of Games matches.

I am far from an expert on the game's inner workings, but the game explains the breakdown of the match card ratings. When you finish a show (on the screen where you're allowed to make a speech), click the question mark next to the show's grade. That help file explains the percentage breakdown for each match/angle.

 

How do you see numbers for match/card ratings? I only see letter grades.
