Stennick Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I know long ago in a galaxy far away (maybe as far back as 97) there was a stamina guide that told you such and such amount of stamina means they can go for roughly this long. Is there any such thing hanging around these days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know from previous posts that you're still playing TEW2016, you really should be posting in that section or at least specifying that in your posts here. A lot of things changed between games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be because he's currently in negotiations, away, has a bad relationship with the parent owner, has a booking skill too high or low for that size of child company, or is too over for a child company of that size. The screen only shows valid, willing candidates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I vaguely remember reading somewhere that the min psychology rating someone would need to successfully call a match in-ring was 80. Is that actually true or have I made that up? The reason for asking is I have a one-fall match with two workers at 74 & 78 psychology and I wanted to have them call in-ring. Not sure if that was too low and would incur penalties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbenjaminx Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Hi there, First of all I apologise if these questions have been asked before, but I couldn't find them. I am hoping someone with knowledge will be able to help me. Firstly: With workers, is it best to have them named in their database or is it better to have them named after their gimmick. The reason I ask is for example if I was looking to find Lisa Marie Varon, but didn't know her real name, but knew for example she was Victoria in WWE, and Tara in TNA what would be thest way to find her? (Essentially how would I link all search terms for her) Another example would be Ken Anderson. How would I find him under his real name, Mr. Anderson or Mr. Kennedy? Second question: In-game, it obviously shows a number of promotions that are defunct before the game starts. I know you can buy the classic championship belts, but is there a way you can buy the rights to the company if they are not owned by someone else? For example if I wanted to buy the rights to Chikara? Would I have to list them as active before the game begins or is there a way I can do it in-game? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is different from mod to mod based on that mod maker's preferences. Most people name them after their most famous identity and use the alter ego function to make sure if they get signed by certain promotions they'll use the proper gimmick. For Lisa Marie Varon, that's the name she typically gets put into mods as with Victoria being an alter ego for her in WWE and Tara being one for TNA. Ken Anderson is usually listed as Ken Anderson, but if you type Anderson in the search bar it'll bring him up anyway. 2. You cannot buy a dead promotion in game, but if you set it up as active in the pre game editor and make your promotion have an ownership relationship with them, it's doable.

I think others have mentioned but no two databases are exactly the same on how they name people so the best way to find someone is to search by their most popular alter ego. In this case Victoria. If you searched Tara she may or may not show up depending on the year. So searching their most popular alter ego is probably the best way to find them.

The Masked Orange Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Will a wrestler be annoyed if you leave them off of a show if they have somewhere else they can work that night? The in-built help section mentions working somewhere else as a factor, but words it to sound like only those who are unavailable for you. If I leave a major star off of one of my events but he can work for a different, lesser, company the same night, is he still going to get annoyed?

Not sure if that was too low and would incur penalties. 60 is the minimum for "Call in Ring". I don't know if it's 60.5 or some other fraction, but sometimes brand new 60s get the note that they look lost and other 60s don't. 59.6-59.9 may show up as 60 due to rounding, which would explain that, but I don't know if that's actually true, it's just speculation.

Not sure if that was too low and would incur penalties. From what I remember, it's based on what the match is rated at that point in the match rating calculation. So if the match is rated at 79 when the calculation gets to the psychology, anything less than 79 will trigger the penalty. So I don't think there's any real magic number.

Bigpapa42 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Might be overthinking this because its late... but how much importance should I be placing on having truly great road agents? Have several with Psychology in the high 70s to high 80s. Respect is 100 or near to that. But there are a couple of legends I can talk out of retirement who have Psychology from the mid 90s to 100. Respect is equally high. So basically as good as you can get as a Road Agent. With strong personalities. But they come at a cost - a very pricey contract. Of note - its a company with a work-rate heavy product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmsubzer Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I'm not sure how to search for this answer. How is the company popularity working in the current build? I'm playing through the 97 mod as PDW as a booker my critical goal is to rise from insignificant to Tiny in two years. I'm 8 months in and i've only gained 1 point of popularity. All of my shows have had a rating of 28 or higher running 1 show a month. Fans have been around 80 or so with cheap tickets. My current prestige is 4% with 26% momentum. What would anyone suggest for me to try and gain 10 points in popularity in the next 15 months in game? (without using the editor) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully, working as a road agent increases the psychology skill itself. If you have the funds, good road agents can really help your talent grow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my head they are that talent relations person keeping everything ticking over backstage as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cartopis84 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 If I transfer my save to a new computer , transferring database and pictures folder, will the game generated workers in my save who have been assigned free pictures have the same pictures on the new computer? Or will they be blank as there is no name correlation between the regen and free picture. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if I was running a really small company and there were no better options... but there always are. Even in the 70s gives me a bit of hesitation. The funds aren't a HUGE issue but its also Japan and bad economy. But... experimentation made me realize giving a per show wage instead of monthly makes it far more reasonable. Like $1200 per show instead of $70,000 per month. On 7/5/2023 at 12:14 AM, Dave Mac said: I tend to have road agents who have positive personality traits as well. So basically a good guy backstage.

I love how someone like Enforcer Roberts keeps the roster in check, so I'm always seek that kind of influence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperMachete Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I have a question regarding psychology now that we're sort of on the topic. I've understood that you can increase a worker's psychology by having him face opponents with better psychology? Is this true? Is the same true when teaming with someone with better psychology? Case in point, thinking of teaming up AJ Styles with Bron Breakker to help develop the latters psychology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
