WMMA5 Small Questions Thread

[DAVEFAN95]

<p>Two questions</p><p> </p><p>

Firstly, what is performance affected by? Fight ratings, recent win/loss record, momentum?</p><p> </p><p>

Secondly, what does performance and aura affect? I vaguely remember something about them being related to rankings but I'm not 100% sure.</p>

Where can I see who won - for example - the world jiu jitsu championship? Or any of these tournaments?

For the life of me, the answer to this question eludes me and has for YEARS!

 

 

Is there a reality based reason for the six month rule? For example, a fighter signs a standard contract with a regional promotion and less than six months later, a national or higher promotion offers them an EXCLUSIVE contract and they turn it down because they 'signed a contract with another company under six months ago'. Um, why?

<p>Hi, I'm playing with BCF. Still at high level regional but popularity has risen to 92.2% . I still have the same PPV deal - United Kingdom Choice. At Medium size. </p><p> </p><p>

Economy is at Strong and Rising. </p><p>

I was getting PPV revenues of around 400k. One was 700k and one broke a million. </p><p>

However In September of year one I tried running two PPV's in a month. Revenue dropped to 40k.</p><p> </p><p>

Its still at that and I'm in february of year two.</p><p> </p><p>

Attendences are still the same.</p><p> </p><p>

I thought it was because of the multiple PPV's but it can't be. I've had a Low Level International Draw match in there and multiple National Draw Matchs. The same as before.</p><p> </p><p>

Ive ran 4 events since I tried the double. So double in September, then october, november, January and February.</p><p> </p><p>

The only other thing is I created an Internet Media Company for all other regions apart from the British Isles and I have been showing the PPV's on that as well. I'm going to run my next PPV without this and see if that is causing the problem. But surely it shouldn't be.</p><p> </p><p>

Any other suggestions are appreciated.</p>

As for the exact reasoning, I don't remember off the top of my head, but I've seen this in a previous post, possibly for WMMA 4.</p>

[bshankly]

<p>ah man. Just ran a show without it. and back upto 500k. </p><p> </p><p>

Piracy taking 90% is a bit much though. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Suppose I'll just keep it for TV. Getting around 500k in advertisement from the TV company as well. Its good for growing the pop in other regions.</p>

While playing will regions ever to opt to make MMA legal, like New York becomes regulated?

<p>So I'm basically only using generated fighters and now the world championships don't seem to work?</p><p> </p><p>

Anyone know why? What is it tied to?</p>

[raufbold]

Does anyone recall the specs for pictures in the game? File format? Any limitations? I have saved a few PNGs as JPG using Paint, but they still don't show up in the game (can't choose them). The dimensions are all ok. Saving them as GIF doesn't help either...

round scoring

 

is it possible for a 10-10 round ?

[Adam Ryland]

So I'm basically only using generated fighters and now the world championships don't seem to work?

You haven't really explained why you think they're not working. If you mean nobody is being selected for them, you probably don't have anyone with a world class background in that sport. If you're using fighters generated from the early days of MMA, that's very likely.

 

is it possible for a 10-10 round ?

 

Yes.

[dmatos01]

Achievements can enter the fighter's biography?

How do you add weight classes? I go to Office > Weight Classes and I don't see an add button only save and remove.

debt , child org

 

What is the amount of debt a promotion needs to have for you to come in with a successful bid?

[Adam Ryland]

Just bumping this question - any thoughts?

 

It is solely from looking at their official win-loss record.

[Adam Ryland]

What is the amount of debt a promotion needs to have for you to come in with a successful bid?

 

It differs from company to company, depending on multiple factors. There is no one value that works for everyone.

[USNNJB9]

round lengths

 

is it possible to get 12 3 min rounds added to the round format on a update, or would that be to hard to do? i dont know and dont want to bother you to much.
