<p>I don't really know where i should ask, so i just put it here and if it's wrong you can hunt me through the forum with Pitchforks.</p><p> </p><p>

I recently gave the Netflix series GLOW a try and I have to admit, it is awesome, but here is my question, is there a mod that brings the Characters of the TV-Series to TEW 2016?</p>

<p>I know nothing about creating TEW alts. I'm working on a mode that involves TEW alts, and there are 3 things that I need to be doing to them. </p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;"><strong>1. Darkening the shade of white for the eyes of some one</strong></span></p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">2. Changing the background of a worker alt. For example changing an alt that has the Thunderverse red background to the Cornellverse blue background.</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="color:#006400;">3. Changing the skin color of a worker alt.</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;"><strong>4. How would I put a TEW alt in a suit or a referee shift?</strong></span></p><p> </p><p>

I have been searching YouTube and I have not been able to find any videos that address my 4 questions. I am still looking through YouTube and I'll post any videos that were helpful.</p><p> </p><p>

I downloaded the Derek B Mod Guide but it didn't address my 4 questions.</p><p> </p><p>

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.</p>

The nice thing about modding something like this, if you did decide to, is that its fantasy so skills are all relative. Easy way to do it would be find the roughly equivalent "real GLOW" wrestler from the Mod Squad and give the "GLOW show" wrestler similar skills. If you were gonna do that but wanted to release it, would want get any okay from the Mod Squad as it would be pretty much the same as importing workers.</p>

This may be the wrong place, but I am thinking about creating a mod and an important part of a mod is the workers and they need renders. So I have been looking around and seeing what I would need and have seen that Daz 3D is suggested and I am curious how much I would need to invest if I do want to start creating renders.

Will the AI recognize divisions in contracts?

<p>I was just wondering if anyone else has issues with storylines when creating a mod? I have created starting storylines, but whenever I start a new game all the companies immediately create all new storylines, why is that? </p><p> </p><p>

Also, what is the rule of using created pictures? I don't know who created all the one's I have and I plan to use some in the mod (I was originally making it just for me) will people get mad, or is it a compliment? I can take them out if it will upset/annoy people.</p>

If unsure, just message the top creators in the "re-render" thread for permission.</p>

Yeah that was the plan, I just don't know if I'll be able to track down each person.</p><p> </p><p>

<p>Greetings,</p><p> </p><p>

I did some quick research but couldn't find any better place than here. I would like to know if there is a mod of Summer of Punk for TEW16? I saw something from 10 that you need some converting but I hope there is something straight for the last game. It doesn't have to be exact mod but still something around the time of pipebomb and the buildup to the Money In The Bank 2011 would do the job. Thanks in advance.</p>

[lonestarDC]

May have been asked before but is there anything for 1989 or 1990? I have used the 88 mod from 2013 and converted but didn't know if there was something either made or in progress for either of these two years. Thanks!

<p>Quick question for any mod makers, or anyone who knows the answer!</p><p> </p><p>

So I created a global subscription network with every single area set to tiny. I just advanced a year as a test twice and both times all the workers for the American company on the network have popularity acting very oddly. </p><p> </p><p>

The popularity in Great Lakes, Mid Atlantic, Mid South and Mid West is increasing much more for workers, so a guy will have E popularity in those regions, F+ in every other region in america. It's usually two different, for some just one.</p><p> </p><p>

The fed is based out of New England and ran all it's shows in New England too so this is really weird. The New Zealand fed on the network isn't having the issue, all the popularity is evened out world wide.</p><p> </p><p>

Anyone have any idea what that is about?</p>

You’re not meant to edit databases outside of the in game editor.

<p>Anyone know how to have a promotion open and their owner also be the booker? Feel like I've forgotten something.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, are people still playing TEW16? Is there much interest in mods these days? I've been out of the loop for a while and part of me feels like attempting some modding again and trying to think of a good time period that isn't already covered or at least, covered to my satisfaction <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Obviously as I already made 1996 data anything closer to this time period would be easier but i am open to any suggestions. No promises, just curious on people's thoughts.</p>

[a0161613]

For me there's still a lot of desire for new stuff. I'm excited for the 2008 and 2011 mods among others even though I've never played a rw mod with any depth. I'm a CV guy all over. That said I came late to the game.
