Update of my old Mod


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

So given that I have taken a sabbatical from work, I've started working through my old mod, updating stats, base regions etc, I am also working through my picture pack that had about 28,000 images in it...

 

The mod starts in August 1997 which is pretty much the beginning of the attitude era, my last mod was void of depth, so I 'm going through each worker updating skills, adding regions, I'm probably about 10% into what I want to do,

 

At the moment it stands at:- (New Mod) ( Previous Mod)

I'm currently working toward making a "Playable" mod

WWF and WCW's contracted workers are complete so I'm currently working toward putting TV shows and PPV's in place as well as Titles'

 

I'm hoping to have the playable but not complete mod reading in the next few weeks and work toward monthly updates, still lots to do and as I'm dyslexic they may be alot of grammar and spelling mistakes

Not so much from Scratch I have a base data, now I look at it some of the stats are way out and it doesn't have base regions,

 

I've put a few wrestlers in that are not based in any of the regions in the game (South African and Chile) so deciding were to put them is the bit that is annoying me the most, South Africans are being based in Europe and Chile and South American wrestlers are going into Mexico

 

But thank you for the kind words

Also I will adding alot of MMA fighters and Celebrities, I will set them as Users characters so if this isn't someone cup of tea they can delete them,

 

personally I love the thought of having Steve Coogan as Alan Partridge anouncing a UK PPV or having a angle were Al Pacino gets speared by Goldberg Or Jon Cryer team with Steve Austin

<p>I've done a little more work to this in the last 24 hours, I've added WWF's Title history/Lineage, I've have tried to include everyone in the Lineage, (even retired and deceased, again this might seem like fluff so people can feel free to delete this)</p><p>

I've added WWF's Hall of Famer's up to 1996, </p><p> </p><p>

I have alot of unused workers contracted to WCW and WWF as I wanted to give players the feel of the heavily bloated rosters at the time,</p><p>

I've included guys like Freddie Blassie, James Dudley in WWF as they as they were on their pay roll</p><p>

WWF had development contracts at the time both Don Callis and Adam "Edge" Copeland were under contract but told to carrying on working indie dates until they were called up, I was unsure how to put this in the game so I have put a development relationship in with WWF and IWA Canada were both were working and other future development workers like Glen Kulka would work while under contract</p><p> </p><p>

WCW has a whopping 145 contracts, I've done alot of research into this and think its pretty accurate,</p>

<p>Workers will be KyKy</p><p> </p><p>

I want to try and use the black grated for logos, but will alot of obscure promotions I'll need a lot of logos made</p><p> </p><p>

Belts, Events and Broadcasters will be the grey background (I cant remember what it is called)</p><p> </p><p>

The pic pack I'm creating as Im going along, I've collected thousands of cuts (my pack has 28,0000 workers into) so I shuffle through it as I go along get rid of cuts not needed and slim the pack down (for example I had 73 Batista cuts)</p><p> </p><p>

Will definitely need help with logos, that would be greatly appreciated</p>

<p>So my next piece of work is to edit through companies,</p><p>

There over 500 so its a fair bit to do, I'll edit through, check base regions, edit products and uniform the profiles as well as add important events and titles to yet to debut companies</p><p> </p><p>

Profiles will look like this</p><p> </p><p>

Company: East Coast Wrestling Association</p><p>

Initials: ECWA</p><p>

Owner/Booker: Jim Kettner</p><p>

Launched: 27th August 1967</p><p>

Based: Newark, Delaware</p><p> </p><p>

Other Information:</p><p>

Has one of the oldest Hall of Fame's starting in 1982</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

I'll probably delete some of the companies I can't find Owner /Booker information for</p>

<p>So I'm currently working through the 117 active companies when the game starts, </p><p>

I have to do:-</p><p>

Contracts</p><p>

Events</p><p>

TV Shows</p><p>

Titles</p><p>

Titles Lineage</p><p>

and Fluff </p><p> </p><p>

Once these are done for each starting company I'll be close to having a working beta...</p><p> </p><p>

I have roughly 200 Users 121 are MMA Stars, the rest range from Rock Stars and actors, I have alot more in mind to add... </p><p>

The late 90s where when Axl Rose and Slash were at odds so I may just book them for Wrestlemania</p>

<p>While I'm probably trying to put too much into this mod, I wanted to create something that gives long term play ability </p><p> </p><p>

I have tried to edit every worker that I have put in the game, so their date of birth and debut is as accurate as I can find..</p><p> </p><p>

I have also tried to create a full indie scene, including lots of less known wrestlers etc..</p>

Link to comment
Share on other sites

<p>My next batch of Celebs to add</p><p> </p><p>

Bill Clinton </p><p>

Ben Stiller</p><p>

Snoop Dog</p><p>

Perry Fenwick (Billy Mitchell from Eastenders)</p><p>

Justin Lee Collins</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Last batch of wrestlers I added were:-</p><p>

Harv Sihra</p><p>

Gurv Sihra</p><p>

Johnny Fabulous (John Cena Sr.)</p><p>

Kevin Walchoz (Nailz)</p><p>

"Dangerous" Danny Davis</p><p>

Kevin Matthews</p><p>

Darren Drozdov</p><p>

Keith Walker</p><p>

JT Smith</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

I'm currently tidying the data:-</p><p>

I've deleted promotions that I cant find owner information on,</p><p> </p><p>

My cut packs when I started this was 22,300, I've gradually been working through it deleting multiples, tidying the file and then transfering then to the new file, currently its sat at 14,728. </p><p> </p><p>

To get to a working beta, I want to first tidying the companies and dojos</p><p> </p><p>

Company profiles will look like this</p><p> </p><p>

Company: !Bang</p><p>

Initials: !Bang</p><p>

Owner/Booker: Marti and Dory Funk Jr.</p><p>

Launched: 1997</p><p>

Based: Tampa, Florida</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Other Information:</p><p>

Initially set up as Funkin' Conservatory a training ground for WWF, would evolve into the !Bang company in 1999</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Dojo's will look like this:-</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Dojo Name: 4 Front Wrestling School </p><p>

Based: Swindon</p><p>

Head Trainer/Founder: Dave Sharp</p><p>

Affiliated With: 4 Front Wrestling</p><p>

Opened: 2004</p><p>

Notable Students:</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Then make sure every company has an owner and belts assigned,</p><p> </p><p>

I've been gradually adding narratives, some are just for fun, some are looking at History, </p><p> </p><p>

"Breaking Barriers</p><p>

Today we take a look back at the life of Ethel Johnson. Born in 1935 Johnson dreamed of becoming a wrestler. She wanted to do something where she could move around alot. Training for just under 2 years, Johnson made her debut and history by being the the first black woman to step foot in an American ring. The agile 130lbs woman was a natural and was billed by promoter Billy Wolfe as "The biggest attraction to hit girl wrestling since girl wrestling began". Johnson would go on to wrestle for 15 years before retiring in 1976. Johnson was a pioneer not only for woman wrestlers but for the breaking down barriers for racism inside the squared circle."</p><p> </p><p>

Some of the things I have added is plain filler, but I have added it for historical accuracy,</p><p> </p><p>

again apologies if there are spelling, grammar reference as I've mentioned before I'm dyslexic, feel free to mention anything and I'll amend it..</p><p> </p><p>

Also any thing you'd like to see, suggest let me know</p>
