Phaeno Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Reading the help text for weight cutting, it looks like there isn't any value that's left up to chance when you hit Weightcutting > 80. Does that mean that fighters with Weightcutting 80 would be able to consistently cut 11% and never miss weight in that range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattduck Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 If you can't get a belt graphic try going to a belt makers website they usually have pics of their work. Sometimes they have generic belts that you can use as yours. Also try Googling old wrestling promotions with the same or similar initials and use pics of their belts. Not perfect but better than blanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone explain that for me? I wondering if it's what i think it is.......... the assistant does several things to help you with booking shows. title fights tab shows you which champion is able to face the #1 contender in their division. main events tab shows you fights which could be used as a main event. hometown tab shows you if you have any fighters who are from the place the event is held in and are able to fight on it. rematch tab shows you which fights have a good reason for a rematch. like a split desicion or when the fight got overturned. fresh matchups tab shows you which fighters didnt fight each other yet. debut tab tells you which fighters have yet to debut in your company there is also a tab called ''challenges'' im not sure what it does but it says the following ''this is a list of challenges where both fighters are in the specified weight class and are eligible for this show'' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kemicode Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Very stupid question since I'm new to WMMA. What exactly does guaranteed fights mean in contract negotiations? If all the guaranteed fights are done, can I cut my guy anytime? Or is it the fight earning he is guaranteed to receive if somehow, the contract lapses without him completing his agreed # of fights?

You can cut the guy for free after all his guaranteed fights are done. It works both ways I think.

Night Robin Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I usually catch these games months after they are out so I've usually got a well patched version by then. If I start a save and download a new patch, does that affect my saved game or do I have to start a new game for the patched issues to be fixed?

Dogmeat Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Probably a dumb question but want to make sure: With a one-night tournament, does every match a fighter competes in count as a fight on his contract, or does the whole night only count as one?

The only thing you have to bear in mind is that patches prevent errors, they can't "go back in time" and fix things that have already gone wrong.

Wayne28 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Hey Adam I know I put this into the suggestion forum, but I was curious as to why in the in game editor "status" for characters was removed? That way we can manually retire and unretire fighters ourselves. I remember this last being available in WMMA3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted January 26, 2018 Author Share Posted January 26, 2018 You were never meant to be able to - when a fighter retires a lot of his data changes, and simply changing the status does not take that into account so you end up with glitches and other issues. Had I known people were abusing the editor to force people into retirement I would have blocked it from previous games too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had I known people were abusing the editor to force people into retirement I would have blocked it from previous games too. I never had any issues in WMMA3 with glitches, but I would use it if someone retired out of nowhere and I completely missed the message or if there was someone I felt retired too young and had more to give. Never forced someone into retirement though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
