I was just wondering is there a way to see the exact amount of PPV buys are done, rather than "money made from PPV"? Thanks

I'm wondering if anyone has came across this issue. I'm playing a modded game(Real World Mod - MacGowan). At the start of the month when new fighters are introduced in my region and a couple of others the only weights new fighters generate in are super heavyweight and fly weight.

 

Has this happened to anyone else? I'm not sure if it's a bug with the mod or not, and if there is a fix for this.

[raufbold]

I had a ton of flyweights generated. But I thought this was due to this division being fairly empty with quite a number of promotions that wanted it. I had some other weight classes generated, albeit in very small numbers and early on. So this might not be a bug at all...

Not generating any other weight classes at all.</p>

[Hazemore]

how do you stop someone being a "weak champion"?

[benjistanley]

How do I check the reach of a fighter when viewing their profile? I can see their heights and weight division but where does it indicate their reach?

<p>What goes into betting odds? I'm assuming not just record, but also skill? It just seems a little weird when two fighters making their debut have a massive odds discrepancy, despite neither of them having a pro fight.</p><p> </p><p>

I suppose it can be hand-waved away by saying the bookies watched old amateur fights <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

<p>Is there any chance of getting Raul Hughes out of retirement in the default set up? Just had an amazing PPV where the LHW Titel was the Main Event and he faced LeToussier in the Co-Main for the #1 Contender Spot. Both really awesome fights, Hughes got the TKO W after just 20s with a body punch... and now he leaves with a garanteed titel shot on the horizon. I really would love to see him compete for that titel one last time would be a great story.</p><p> </p><p>

So is there any chance and when are they thinking about reentering the sport. On the same day at least he had no interest of coming back. :/</p>

Yes, it did work. Put a select few ratings on 100% asked him and he wanted to come back. Then but them back where they were.

 

Btw I just saw I had regeneration on. Should I have it on at this point in the default set up or should I wait a few years. Any experiences?

 

Nice. What ratings exactly did you tinker with? Would love some inside on this. I always play with regeneration on, but that's my personal preference.
