I would like some advice. I would like to turn the default universe into a boxing mod. My thoughts would be to reduce each non boxing stat to very low or zero. I like to do this with WMMA 3. I'm having difficulty trying to determine how I should tweak the fight engine in WMMA 5. What would you recommend? Is there anything that I may be missing?

I don't recall whether there's a "never kicks" attribute, but that would be obvious if it's there. Just to be safe, give everyone +100 on the kick defense stat (forgot the name).

 

Personally I would recommend increasing everyone's chin by 10 (or 20?) to simulate the big gloves having less KO power.

 

Would be curious to the result. I've dabbed in simming pure kickboxing but never pure boxing.

 

Thank you so much for the feedback. I will give it a shot.

Unfortunately I can't get the fight metrics to resemble a boxing match. There aren't enough punches thrown to feel realistic. I'm seeing 8 round fights with less than 25 punches thrown at times. Two power punches. It was fun giving it a shot.

 

Increasing the values of the regular punch technique will normally increase the volume as well, but also the effectiveness, which means you might have to increase the defensive stats (footsies, head movement, etc.) as well and basically make the individual differences of the stats less relevant.

 

If the numbers are bothering you, I suggest you experiment with the round duration. Just look for the "getting tired" lines and finetune the settings until you're satistied with the output numbers, if that's so important.

 

I hope this helps.

Funny thing is I don't know why I care about fight metrics all of a sudden. I rarely "watch" a fight anyway. I appreciate your feedback.</p>
