Derek B Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 What are some of the biggest areas of work or any advice you could hand on when importing a mod over? Was there any unexpected area of work? Just going through everyone to set things... there's already a thread in the main forums that has gone through most of the things covered and I don't want to keep repeating things. Will you update the Helpful Info Document with these omissions, so we can go in and add them if their existence becomes appropriate (i.e. Victoria Stone gets pregnant)? In order to speed up development (as I've gone through most of the things I need) I've stopped updating some documents and haven't included them in this download. I might do something later, but at this point I'm concentrating on the other mod I want to make (while doing tweaks here) so that I can play the game more... I spent too much of TEW13 modding, I intend to spend a lot of time playing and writing for TEW16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldStingberg Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Super excited to see this. Easily one of my top 3 favorite mods. Glad to see it done so soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oyaji Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I am excited to give this a shot. I hope this is what finally pulls me into the Cornellverse. Thanks for all the hard work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek B Posted April 27, 2016 Author Share Posted April 27, 2016 Thank you very much! I remember having a blast playing the first version of this mod. Just one question... I noticed all the 4 East coast wars promotions have weekly events. Does this work or will I end un bankrupt after the first month of my playthrough (XFW)? Also wasn't Kurt Laramee supposed to be on XFW instead of DAVE? Just some questions I have Laramee did used to be in XFW in older versions of the mod but the canon Cornellverse histories have him in DAVE from 1996 so he moved. That change happened in the TEW13 version of the data, so he's been there for a while now. As for events, in testing the warring companies have had varying degrees of success with their shows (which have also been there since TEW13) in the TEW16 data. DAVE has been almost universally successful while each of the others have managed to do well in some saves and die in others (usually being bought out by the SWF). As a player, it's up to you how you want to compete though, it certainly isn't as easy to survive in there as it used to be. Derek B Found an issue while using your database, which I can repeat with ease, but unable to repeat using the 2016 database. I know not if this is something on the database end or on the .exe end but I thought you should be aware of this. Thought you might like the heads up. --------------------------- Using Patch 2, Running CV97, Created a User character, started unemployed, created new company. 15 workers hired, 2 shows, one title belt. Create MDB File produces a Run-Time error '6': Overflow Behind it, "Transferring Belt Histories #3" is as far as the MDB file got. Clicking OK on the error results in CTD. Notes: - I can get this to repeat with CV97 with any user character but it only fails once I have a worker in my company that inst the user character. - I cannot get this to repeat in the Patch Beta 2 database 2016 making me believe it is a database-dependent issue. Making it something mod makers have to be aware of and would probably like to know the cause. ---------- I'll start a thread in Tech Support to pass that on to Adam, is something he'd need to look at. He'll probably want more information though, and ask if you are using the initial data I posted or the v1.02 version I updated when he added the patch.

Jaded Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 As expected, LOVING this Derek! Two minor things - Big Cat Brandon doesn't have a picture assigned in DAVE, neither does Liberty in HGC. My plans for my HGC game (maybe including a dynasty) are looking good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Great! I always loved this mod and played nothing else. Any chance the 2005 mod gets released? I'm going to do a small-time company with actual WWE-style booking this time. Probably AAA. Usually I'd do ROF or CZCW because I didn't like the angle system.

elkhour Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 <p>Thank you again Derek. This is by far my favorite mod. I played TEW a lot since 2010, but never got into dynasty writing until I played CV97. I wrapped up my TEW13 dynasty and was hoping for this mod to be available for the new game. I already have an idea for a new dynasty and will start exploring the mod in TEW16 shortly.</p><p> </p><p> Thanks again</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oyaji Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 <p>Very minor grammar issue in DAVE's promotional bio. The first sentence uses "it's" when it needs the possessive "its". I think I'll give DAVE a shot, as I loved mid '90s ECW (for the most part - some of it has not aged well at all!).</p><p> </p><p> Edit: one more thing for DAVE, Big Cat Brandon's missing a picture for his contract.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigilistic Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 You might want to adjust Jennifer Moran's age and debut date. Tommy Cornell starts out with his organic bio saying he's engaged to Mito Miwa since she doesn't start the game debuted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Man, I wanna play with this data... But I'm just giving Cverse a shot for the first time, and it's hard enough to take in an entire universe without having to take in the Good Ol' Days at the same time. I will be hitting this up in the future, though, buh-lee-dat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genadi Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Thanks Derek! Could not have been easy updating this and working on release. Appreciated, will be my first save. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stennick Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Man, I wanna play with this data... But I'm just giving Cverse a shot for the first time, and it's hard enough to take in an entire universe without having to take in the Good Ol' Days at the same time. I will be hitting this up in the future, though, buh-lee-dat! Honestly when I bought TEW 07 is when I played my first C Verse game. It was a small created promotion that only used unemployed people. When 2008 came out I played a lot as USPW but then when this got released I played it non stop. If anything this is a great base to learn your C Verse history. Phil Vibert is in his prime full on mad scientist of pro wrestling. Sam Strong has broken away from the SWF and he's only his final leg as a draw. Rip Chord is in his final run as a worker. Tommy Cornell is JUST starting out and already has issues with Eisen and could break away from him at any time. Liberty and Ricky Dale Johnson are young up and coming future stars. I could go on and on but so many of the "legends" in the later games are just starting out future stars or are in the prime of their careers now. Its so awesome to go back and replay things like that and as I said you learn so much history along the way. "Hey I know that guy" "Hey I know that guy".

YoungNoble Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 If its anything like prior releases its not very good. That was an unfortunate page break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colby Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Definitely going to give this a long overdue try this weekend! Have never played the '97 C-verse, I'm sure it will give me a better understanding of the current "legends" in our games. Heck, I might even mark out a bit from seeing the game world sorta like it was in TEW '04 at some point in a long save. Cheers for all the hard work and dedication to this series and the board DerekB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TakerNGN74 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Yes! I had my best save ever using this mod with TEW 2013 so I can't wait to download this and see if I can recreate the magic I once had with SWF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foolinc Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Derek, thanks again for putting out this mod. It's one of been one of my favorites for years! As I'm prepping for the full release and the start of my next NEO diary (which will be using this mod), a weird sentence came out of my mouth: "If I don't sign Craig Green, I'm screwed."

Sigilistic Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Caught some other oddities. Organic bios where one half of a relationship doesn't start the game debuted and so the other half is always labeled as Mito Miwa. He is simultaneously engaged to Tommy Cornell, married to Tom Gilmore and tagging with Duane Stone and Alex DeColt. Busy guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
