[Bobby Brown]

<p>okay, 2 times a no ... but hope is still on the horizon <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

i just had to download the trial version to take a look into it. </p><p>

and it is still as it was before: you can change dojos and school's graduation to no, but when you're about to save it, it tells you that only performance centers can have graduations disallowed. </p><p> </p><p>

if you want to, you can try it yourself ... maybe i have a little saturday shadow in my head <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

and maybe one positive answer from you? do you know, or someone else, if there will be an iceisle skin for the 2020 version?</p>

[boswer91]

<p>I Have some questions about the game ( fairly new to the game so...^^ ):</p><p> </p><p>

1/ If You want to create a promotion that look like Lucha Underground, what style do you give that promotion ?</p><p> </p><p>

2/ Is there any promotion in the game already that is like Lucha Underground ?</p><p> </p><p>

3/ And for last, in real life anybody can broadcast a show. You need to have a promotion ( of course ), some wrestlers, a ref, a announcer and someone to film the show and then put on Youtube. It cost money, don't earn any money but you earn exposure because it's free which means more fan who can buy a ticket next time you make a show. So the question is : If you create a promotion in the game, can you do this with the game version of Youtube ?</p>

[moafnsteel]

WrestleWorld i think it the name, i don't have the game in front of me but its always in the news on the first day of a new game, launches in March. I believe their requirements are only like 25 or so pop to get on their network. It's subscription services i believe. Its not YouTube but it gives you an option earlier than others.

[xphen0m]

Ok, so firstly, because your match and angle focus are main event spotlight and tight focus respectively, it means 90% of your show rating will come from your best angle and main event. So that’s all you really need to focus on to get a good score.

 

For a good angle, you just need a good entertainment angle of about six minutes with someone like Austin or The Rock or John Cena. For your Main Event, have a 16 minute match between some Major Stars and Stars (either singles, tag or triple threat), and use road agents notes Open Match, Call in Ring and Slow Build. Absolutely avoid using notes Keep Strong, Protect or Dominate at all cost on your Main Event.

 

The only other thing is make sure you meet your storyline requirements (looks like you need 5 “hot” storylines, so keep your major storylines propped up with good angles) and avoid the overuse penalty (your Booking Analysis button will tell you if anyone is overused before you start the show).

 

Try those things out and tell us how you go!

 

Thank you. I ran my first show with these tips. Here's the result (Some mor text underneath the image)

 

 

This was actually a better result than the RAW I ran earlier but still upset my network. Howver, some concerning ratings. I had several segments with no penalties listed (and actually a lot of bonuses), but yet stilled get somewhat low ratings. Upon checking in the editor, the guys in question have at least decent popularity (>70 or >75) but this still happens.

[Planet Stasiak]

Could someone tell me where is the option to create a developmental company? I'm not seeing it in the new interface.

[creepshow]

<p>Less a question than a comment...</p><p> </p><p>

I'm using a real world mod, and I'm working as an insignificant indy...</p><p> </p><p>

I cannot wait for the game world to settle down. WWE is hiring away my roster as fast as I can re-fill it. Very annoying.</p>

So if i create a promotion, i just need to put the style of EMLL to look like Lucha Underground ! Cool ! Thanks

 

So i have to wait a little to have the game version of youtube or create my own broadcast :s

 

If you want a Youtube style broadcaster, the default database has OnDem which is basically Youtube.

Guys this may be a stupid question but when it comes to booking, is there a way to format it so I'm booking from opener to main event rather than Main event to opener?

[njmcfreak]

If I have someone under a written contract and loyalty to my promotion. How can they sign a handshake deal somewhere else and not lose availability towards them? Edit: nevermind, I wasn't paying attention. whoops

[adam24c]

I'm using auto booker on one of my shows and it continuously books multiple 5 minute matches, before upgrading to the full version it was booking 12-15 minute matches. Any idea what's going wrong? I've looked throughout the product and settings and I'm not able to find any way to fix it. I also have booking times turned off but when I turn it back on the auto booker books 20+ minute matches which also makes my ratings suffer.

[NinjaBadger4k]

Your Preferences - Book Main Event First, uncheck that box.

 

Thanks to you and Smashman

[hecatomb]

Is there a way to tell how often a wrestler needs to be used and at what level (maybe popularity?) they are at before they complain about not being on shows? Is it different between written and handshake deals?

 

 

 

Example:

 

How often can a Major Star champion just not be used at all so they do not have to defend their title every show or just be paid to wave at the camera to cover them being technically used on a show?
