Playing as Italian Wrestling Federation, the match intensity is set at 60% in the product settings. The recommended setting should be 0-20 <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

[The Celt]

On the subject of stables, Fargo Korben's bio says he's currently in Life without Fear, but I'm not sure the stable even exists (formally) in CWT. Also Jesse Mills doesn't have the minimum requirements for a Cult Leader gimmick.

You can add Xtinction to the list of workers who were made obsolete. There's a future worker named eXtinction who's bio mentions him as being out of the business (or dead if you want to take the "becoming a ghost thing literally.) Just thought of him as I was playing around with Diaspora and going over their unit and title history.

 

In late 2014, the wrestling world breathed a sigh of relief as Xtinction vanished, cutting off all contact with promotions and becoming a ghost. Since then, there have been many who have taken up the mask and persona in an attempt to get a leg up in their career but none of them ever came close to replicating Xtinction.

 

That was until eXtinction appeared. Eerily similar to Xtinction, there have been some who have questioned if eXtinction is actually Xtinction attempting to get over the sins of his wrestling past. Most however believe the similarities to be nothing more than mere coincidences and that eXtinction is just another young worker jumping onto an infamous wrestling persona in order to get some quick notoriety.

[Big Roguey]

Xtinction is intentional. In fact, some say he's the one who opened the wormhole to the void.

And he must be the only character, along UC James Heatly, who has conscience of the GDS-Verse (or HoganVerse, as I like to name our real world)

 

In fact, I imagine (e)Xtinction as a Deadpool-like character, breaking the fourth wall and having some kind of regenerative power.

 

 

If both my english and booking skills were better, I would definitely incorporate this in a dynasty/diary.

Figured I'd let y'all know what 1.03 will bring.

 

- Some more future promotions, rescued from the vault!~

 

- General fixes!

 

- Worker sizes more in line with the weights listed in TEW. Any belt that is Junior/Cruiserweight now has a max size of Lightweight (Lightweight's max size being 230lbs as per TEW). This is the thing that'll affect any ongoing saves the most but in the interest of not forcing people to go through the rigmaroll of starting a new save or anything, I'll also link to a google doc which lists the workers who got moved sizes and what size they moved to. That way if you want, you can simply go into the in-game editor and change the sizes yourself.

 

1.03 should be out sometime soon, I'm hoping for Sunday but hey, at least you guys have a version of the data to play this time!

Very excite! I'm such a weirdo completionist, I always have to wait for the "last" update before really diving in for a long term game. I'm simply pooping around with the data currently. Exploring all the characters and feds. That last note justified my weirdness. Hollywood has piqued my interest, but the Cruiserweight division felt a little off due to the weight limit being middleweight. There's was no real line of demarcation in terms of the roster at hand and the weight limit. Can't wait to dive in once 1.03 is released this weekend. Already planning a game where King brings in Chaperone to book the territory!

[Big Roguey]

1.03 should be out on Friday as I'm away from my desktop Saturday - Tuesday.

 

Also, if you check the first post you'll noticed the Seal of Approval is back!

[Ping von Erich]

Well earned! Thunderverse is without a doubt my favorite data set above all others, the attention to detail is absolutely untouchable.

[Pteroid]

Question, his bio mentions Carmine Perotti being 'completely lovable' but his babyface performance is only D+, is this intentional?

[Markw]

Another one for the update, I think (/really hope) Butcher Hachirobei should be available to work in the USA.

 

Edit: Also El Sueno is Spanish but doesn't speak Spanish.

[bonnie]

Hey! I love the mod, been playing it since release (i'm mainly a lurker). I've been playing mainly as CWT and doing some slight changes for my own joy (basically playing it as if Terry Thunder has come back to wrestling by purchasing CWT due to their money troubles). Anyway one thing I noticed was that Jesse Mills is said in his bio to be really fantastic at his cult leader gimmick (and is basically one of the top heels in the promotion) however, in matches and angles it repeatedly comes up with the tip that he's not suited to his gimmick. So I think this needs to be changed. His acolyte Sonny is also said to not be suited to his Weirdo gimmick, but I can understand that because Sonny is a stupid jobber.

[Big Roguey]

Sonny isn't stupid.

 

Jesse is on the fix list, I get back to my desktop tonight so once I touch base with the team and see what has been done in my absence (Paris is lovely, everyone should endeavour to go at least once in their life), I'll see how we close we are to 1.03's release!
