[Beta Release] Risky Business(January 1985)


Recommended Posts

I don't know if you're taking suggestions for workers or not, but there's two things I remember from the 85 mod (as it's absolutely my go-to mod).

 

Firstly, The Destroyer Dick Beyer isn't in there, despite working for All Japan well into the 90s. He's definitely a must have! Also, the mod had Jesse Ventura as fully retired when he still wrestled full time into early 1986 (in addition to color).

 

Thanks for taking on this task! 85 is by far my favorite mod for many reasons, and it's wonderful that someone is expanding on it further.

As someone who worked on the mod on TEW 2013, and then released a beta for 2016, I'll take responsibility for both of those. The Destroyer was a gross oversight on my part. I thought I had him in there, but alas as you have pointed out, I didn't. My due apologies for that.

 

As for Jesse Ventura, that was a tough one for me to decide on because unless I'm remembering incorrectly, I believe he started having his health issues around this time and had to start limiting his ring work, hence why he was doing more color commentary. However, like I said, I could be completely wrong. And if so, by all means correct me. :D I don't get any better at anything unless I learn, after all. :)

<p>Suffered a setback on the data this evening. Went to back up my work and deleted the wrong file. Shouldn't take me too long to get back to where I was because I'm learning the editor quite quickly now, but it's still annoying as hell.</p><p> </p><p>

My current plan is to tackle JCP and WWF workers and attributes and then possibly post the data for a beta test. </p><p> </p><p>

Very frustrated.</p>

As much as I want the data, if you're getting frustrated don't hesitate to take a break mate. All working under anger will do is give you more work in the future.

This is probably a TEW 2020 problem and not a Risky Business problem, but I'm running with a converted 2016 Risky Business save and in 86 my popularity raised enough to go to "National" but lowered back down to "Cult" a few months later.

 

However, all of my wrestler's "statuses" are still being reflected by the international status, for example when I was "Cult" status Hogan was a Major Star, when I went National he became just a star, but now it's back at Cult he's still just a Star. The game is also making me lose popularity accordingly and giving me poor ratings for 70ish show ratings when before such a rating would raise my status...

No point reporting issues you're having with data you've converted yourself as the mod is unlikely to suffer the same issue as it will have been properly balanced before release.

Hi I am really looking forward to this mod being released could you tell me please when this mod will be available roughly

.

 

Sorry, not even a rough estimate. I haven't even started work on it again after it got deleted. I've been busy.
