1996: Hostile Takeover BETA Release

[kito333]

Not to pile on but you can also make those changes yourself. I’ll be adding Chyna to my game soon because I started a save file and I need her to debut pretty soon. It’s not too hard to edit data especially if you already know exactly what is needed. Loving the mod by the way. I’m debating starting a write up of my game events so far because I’m enjoying it so much!

[soxfan93]

I have a suggestion: I think you should give Rey Mysterio, Jr., either the "Easily Marketable" or "A Marketing Dream" attributes to simulate how hot those masks have been for 25 years.

 

Still love this mod. I'm a slow mover, but I'm on the road to Halloween Havoc!

[YoungNoble]

Thanks Gaz for all of your mods. I am having a blast booking Impact in KTB. You got these mods out and totally playable surprisingly quick. Don't be dejected by a few rude people.

[Jaysin]

Is the mod still getting support? The reason I ask is because it has almost been a month since an update and quite a few reports haven't been implemented yet:

 

Workers Missing:

Shannon Moore - 6/2/2020 [Valdarix]

Joey Abs (Jason Ahndt) - 6/2/2020 [Valdarix]

Eddie Jackie - 6/2/2020 [Valdarix]

Chyna (Joanie Laurer) - 6/8/2020 [The Nickman]

Spike Dudley/Matt Hyson - 6/9/2020 [hvacrepairman]

Prince Iaukea - 6/12/2020 [Darkestearth]

 

1) Terry Funk and Dory Funk Jr. are related. Also, Funk either mentor to Tommy Dreamer or good friends.

 

2) Mick Foley and Al Snow good friends

 

3) Arn Anderson strong friendship with Tully Blanchard. Married to someone outside the business.

 

4) Jesse James Armstrong, good friends with Jeff Jarrett

 

5) Dennis Coraluzzo: hatred of Shane Douglas, Paul Heyman, and Tod Gordon.

 

6) Fatu tag team with Samu as Headshrinkers/Samoan SWAT Team, tag title history as well

 

7) Bobby Fulton blood relative of George Hines/Jackie Fulton/The Eagle. They were a tag team for a while as well

 

6) George Hines/etc. tag history with the Patriot, they had success in AJPW

 

7) Dusty Rhodes mentor of DDP, or possibly loyalty

 

8) Brian Lee related to Ron and Don Harris (cousins)

 

9) Brian Pillman friends with the Harts and Steve Austin. Possible dislike/hatred of Sid?

 

10) Bruce Prichard friends with Paul Heyman

 

11) Benoit/Jericho/Guerrero/Malenko friendships

 

12) Curt Henning best friends with Rick Rude

 

13) Joe Malenko as a wrestler. Dean's brother, obviously. Remember him still being active in Japan 10-15 years ago. Showed up in WCW at one point iirc

 

None of this from hvacrepairman - 6/8/2020

 

Then there is the pic pack which has been requested mulitple times and the modder reported to be "looking tonight" on 6/30/2020 and said nothing since:

 

0 events

0 TV shows

301 workers with no pictures (I don't I can list them all here due to word limit) including Brock Lesnar, Bryan Danielson, CM Punk, Chris Harris, James Storm, Mark Jindrak, Matt Bloom, Randy Orton, Sean O'Haire

 

In the time it took to type this post you could have made the changes yourself.

[soxfan93]

I've made up a few more if anyone is interested:

 

Jeff Jarrett

 

Tully Blanchard

 

Barry Windham

<p>Sure....the modder leaves his own mod high and dry whilst updating a different one he did but it is the person that points out how the mod isn't supported that is entitled and out of order...</p><p> </p><p>

It's fine, I'll give the mod a pass, it's fairly clear that everybody would rather enable the modder rather than hold him accountable</p>

Because he's not made changes within your expected time frame that you could make yourself if it was such an issue? That does make you seem entitled and out of order, as you put it yourself. The game has been released for almost 3 months. Mods take time. If you can't realise that, maybe it's best you take a pass, my friend.</p>

Gaz, I honestly couldn’t “get into” the game before I started playing both of your mods. I hope you don’t feel that one or two people speak for the community at large that are loving the game because of your work.

[DjRelativity]

Ignore the hate. Your mods are awesome! Your picture pack design is revolutionary!

 

Thanks for making this game more enjoyable for the community

[Idolized]

Yeah, weird how people would rather support someone donating their time to make the community better! Modders do not need to be held accountable for anything, they don’t owe anyone a single thing.

You sound like a child whose parents won't buy him a toy.

 

Clicked your profile and you are a literal child. I hope you grow up some before trying to talk with adults again.

Hey guys, headed towards World War 3, decided to bring this guy in under essentially a Legends Deal for the match and maybe some spots afterwards against the nWo. Who knows? Talking people out of retirement is awesome!

Hey all, i'm away from home computer at the moment, can someone please tell me the start date for this mod?

 

Cheers!

 

Also thank you for putting this together!

I am having a blast playing a WWF game right now. A small think I noticed was that Ted Dibiase Jr is included in the Million Dollar belt history. Thanks again for all of the work put into this.

[kito333]

I just had Buff join the nWo, can I get a pic cut of nWo Buff Bagwell instead of the Marcus Bagwell cut?

[snowjorden]

Downloaded this yesterday after purchasing the new game, finally. Really good base of a mod, but theres a lot not finished. Thank you though, for this. Very hard to play through a game though for me, as I'd keep running into things that couldn't be edited with just the in-game editor, sadly.

 

One that could be edited, but was funny... Atsushi Onita, for example, doesn't do Deathmatches?

 

[kito333]

What is everyone doing about India not having any broadcasters? I was thinking of just creating a couple of different options with coverage there, or maybe add some "Oceanic" coverage areas to India as well.
