WillyWillyWilly Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Hey, its me, Andy aka Willy. My english hasn't getting better since the last tim im doning this, sorry for that. A few years ago, I started my first modding attempts with a fantasy mod, Titanverse. do you remember? Anywys, that mod was never finished. Due to a lack of ideas, feedback, and motivation, I eventually abandoned the mod. Recently, however, I stumbled upon an old TEW 16 save file and started playing TEW 20 again. Since real-world mods aren't fun for me for me and the Cornellverse has some aspects that bother me alot, I decided to continue my mod, but with significant revisions. First, the new name. ND = Andy i know silly, but hey. Then I replaced all the graphics or am still in the process of doing so. Lastly, I discarded a lot of things that I no longer needed or that disrupted the balancing. Regarding the graphics: Since my old PC with DAZ 3D and my old renders died (tragically), and I have no plans to start 3D rendering from scratch again, I decided that someone else could work for me. Specifically, Google's/Bing's Text to Image AI. With this program, I created all the renders you can see in the presentation banner above. Its a mix of comic style with a bit of realism. All the logos will be handmade by me, becaus AI hates letters. 😕 Preview of some of the companies: i had no ideas what backgrounds i run with, so i went the easy way In total there will be 65 playable Companies, covering all 8 regions, including India. ND Verse has wrestling in every region, and theres alot of women's and hardcore wrestling. Also has 25 Training Facilities 5 Alliances 170 Broadcasters and 2400+ Workers if there are people who would like to write bios for me, please let me know. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyWillyWilly Posted May 17 Author Share Posted May 17 (edited) USA Let's start with the BIG THREE NRW l UPW l ASW Since NRW (then known as Pacific North Wrestling) left the NAW alliance, they have repeatedly clashed with their fiercest adversary, USWC. When USWC began to falter in the early 2000s, PWN was able to claim the top spot in American wrestling. However, unrest ensued as the company underwent multiple changes in management, name changes, and significant departures towards UPW, damaging the company's reputation in Oregon and preventing stability. Until USWC ceased to exist in 2014, as NRW, in collaboration with UPW, managed to acquire the remnants of USWC, including contracts of top stars and the video archive. In 2015, Hank Richards exited the company, handing it over to his son, Jerry. Since then (and a rebranding to NRW), NRW has been able to distance itself from UPW. When USWC closed down, UPW quickly rose to the second position, securing better TV slots on the USCN Network that were previously held by USWC. Since then, UPW has been on the rise. ASW, on the other hand, remained under the radar for years, even smaller companies like TSW or LCW occasionally drew more fans to their events. However, this changed when ASW entered into a cooperation with AOKI, whose wrestlers regularly appeared in ASW events. The Forbidden Door Tournament remains a well-attended, internationally respected tournament and a highlight of the wrestling calendar for many fans. Indies: Tri States Wrestling l Texas Championship Wrestling Below the "Big 3" are two companies, TSW and TCW, which have existed since the 70s and 80s, respectively. Particularly, Texas Championship Wrestling enjoyed high popularity in the 70s and until the mid-80s. in the 90s TSW was the development company for USWC and still producing a fair amount of talenten men and women over time. Pro Wrestling Urban Then there's the Semi-Hardcore company PWU, Which combines elements of hip-hop music and wrestling, often featuring Gang Fights as multi-man matches. Celebrity Rappers appears occasionally on PWU Hood Rats. BEER WRestling l Xtreme Wrestling Combat BEER Wrestling and XWC are renowned Hardcore promotions, with BEER focusing less on excessive brutality and more on comedy. XCW, however, is a controversial company that has faced national bans but still exists to this day. Mid South Wrestling MSW, founded in the 80s. Once battled TCW for dominance in Texas, closed its doors in the 90s, but reopened in 2012, living up to its legendary name. Notable Mentions: These are the following tiny companies whose products are different. I will go through all of them one by one at some point ALOHA Wrestling l Champioship Wrestling from Vemont l Youth wrestling Union (PWU Developmental) Limitless Championship Wrestling l Cabra Puerto Rico Wrestling l High Flying Spctacular Wrestling Bad Ass Wrestling l Ground Breaking Wrestling (NRW Developmental) l Holy Crap Wrestling USA Women's Wrestling: Women's Revolution Wrestling As for women's wrestling, it was virtually nonexistent until around 2010. USWC showcased more "eye candy" matches, while UWP and NRW hardly featured women's matches, and if they did, they were often relegated to the under-card or opener. Female wrestlers often went to Japan or Canada, where women's wrestling was better established. However, since around 2013, women have played a larger role n us wrestling, evident even in WRW, which, though established since 2008, was never as popular as it is today. Foxy Ladies Of Wrestling Alongside WRW is FLOW, which despite its short existence, has succeeded in nurturing national and international female talent and introducing them to major companies. FLOW is considered an independent development ground for women, while WRW hosts more established female wrestlers. Noatble Mentions: Wrestlecalyse l Diamond Dolls l Not Safe For wrestling (NRW Developmental) CANADA Canadian Maple Leaf Wrestling In Canada, there were two notable competitors: Canadian Maple Leaf Wrestling in the east and World Athletes Wrestling in the west. While WAW could hire American wrestlers (and closed down in 1999), CMLW stuck with Canadian talents, particularly in the French Canadian provinces. This was largely due to CMLW's training school, Steel School, known as the toughest and most reliable wrestling training facility ever, which still produces homegrown talent for CMLW. Although CMLW could keep up with NRW and UPW, it was never considered a serious competitor by both companies due to its specialized concept and not being based in their own country. Nonetheless, owner Marc Leclerc gained attention with clever cross-promotions between Canada, Mexico, and Japan, to the extent that the concept was temporarily adopted by USWC. CMLW still holds a significant presence in North American wrestling, albeit often overlooked. Notable mentions: Sick n Twisted Wrestling l Big Dog Wrestling l Sharpshooter Wrestling l Northern Lights Wrestling CANADA Women's Wrestling IndyGirlZ Women's wrestling in Canada has a larger reputation compared to the USA. Legendary wrestler Mis Veronica was able to build a fanbase around herself, leading to the existence of the first and for a long time, the only women's-only company ion North American ground. After Veronica retired and closed down her company, KISS, otther women, inspired by Veronica, continued the legacy of women's wrestling, which now continues at IGZ. Notable Mentions: None. IGZ is the only women's company in canada Edited May 18 by WillyWillyWilly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDeep5ix Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 The new style looks like the Rockverse stuff that Willr0ck is doing. Also, Extreme Wrestling B*tches and Not Safe For Wrestling existing together seems wild 😝. I definitely wonder what the lore behind this new universe would be, especially since the other companies and renders seem interesting at first glance. The number of companies, workers, etc., also looks promising, so good luck on finishing this project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyWillyWilly Posted May 18 Author Share Posted May 18 i know people wait for companies and backstory, but its alot of text and stuff, it takes a bit of time so in the mean time i will tell you about narratives. narratives are a thing in ND Verse, there are a lot of them, some would even say too many Among them are random things like wrestlers breaking the fourth wall, doing promos, getting mad or insulting. wacky commercials, small stories over several periods of time, crazy tasks with funny stories and sometimes celebrities show up and do nonsense. none of this has any effect on the game or should be taken seriously, it's just a lot of stuff to have fun with. here's a small example: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeep5ix Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I personally enjoy narratives, especially since they can add some flavor text (or a few minor events), so it's nice to see them utilized in this mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyWillyWilly Posted May 18 Author Share Posted May 18 updated the 2nd post with a preview of the US and Canada companies I go into more detail on each company's story whenever the rosters are introduced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyWillyWilly Posted May 18 Author Share Posted May 18 Normally, I would have gone with the US companies first, but since no us company is finished yet,but Japan is, I’ll just start with Japan. All Joshi Pro Wrestling AJW is a solid Joshis only company based in Tokyo founded in 2011 The product is tailored to the Japanese mainstream and offers typical gimmicks and aspects for a family-friendly show. However, AJW's shows often feature alot of fatal 4-way matches, whether between individual wrestlers or teams. When long-time tag team partners Hisa Kuroki and Fumie Numata left their former home company Ocho-8, they went their separate ways. Numata founded TDS, while Kuroki initially founded J+ Promotion before its remnants merged with AJW. For a long time there was peace between TDS and AJW until then TDS wrestler Akayo 666 and Hisa Kuroki faced each other at the annual Tournament of Joy. Akayo was forced to forfeit her Dreamslam title in this match due to injury, whereupon the hot-headed Kuroki grabbed the title and carried it around with her. Although TDS introduced a new title and did not recognize Kuroki as the defending champion, Kuroki continued to call herself the reigning Dreamslam champion, much to Fumie Numata's dismay. Among other frequent incidents and taunts between the former partners, resentment towards TDS grew as Numata was able to achieve better bookings and attract more people overall with the TDS product. Furious over TD's status, Kuroki banned their wrestlers from wrestling at TDS and sent a brigade of AJW wrestlers to infiltrate and sabotage the TDS shows, but was unsuccessful. After years of fighting for second place and before the dispute could seriously escalate, Kuroki's hot-headed temper cooled and the relationship with TDS and Fumie Numata improved. Today, wrestlers are allowed to perform again in both companies. Titles: There are 4 titles, with AJW Joshi World title being the most important. The Joshi Tag Team title, which can be defended under the Freebird Rule, The Joshi Talents title for younger and up-and-coming stars The 4-Way title, the secondary title often contested in fatal 4-way matches AJW Joshi World Title AJW Joshi Talent Title AJW Joshi 4-Way Title AJW Joshi Tag Team Title Since 2014, AJW has been broadcasting its TV show Climaxx every Friday evening, which is broadcast on the television channel of the same name.

WillyWillyWilly Posted May 22 Author Share Posted May 22 Insane Action Wrestling Insane Action Wrestling has been around since 2001. It used to be a entire deathmatch company known for featuring extremely dangerous spots. Things like barrels full of thumbtacks, a tower made of 1000 light tubes and a electrified barbed wire steel cage has been featured on the program. Nothing was too violent for IAW. But in 2014, the Japanese government had enough of the “Gore Fest From Ehime” and issued regulations saying the brutality must be toned down or it would have consequences. In addition, the IAW had to include matches without deathmatch involvement in its program. Owner Fukao Kantaro then used some of his connections and split his company into two divisions. The Insane Division still features bloody deathmatches, while the Action Division focuses more on regular wrestling. However, there are moments where both divisions mix together, as head booker Chika Muto isn't too strict about it. There are 4 titles, with IAW Deathmatch being the most important. The IAW world Heavyweight Title, wich is basically the same as the Deathmatch tite but without Deathmatches The IAW world Tag Team title for 2 on 2 action and the IAW Action Title, the secondary title for the midcard IAW Deathmatch Title IAW World Heavyweight Title IAW World Tag Team Title IAW Action Title Staff Owner Booker Fukao Kantaro Chika Muto Announcer Color Commentator Road Agent Action Referee Insane Referee Koin Manakawa "Screamin" Ukon Takara Noshi Yakabe Keisuke Kijimuta Master Chu Insane Division: basicly all the Deathmatch Wrestlers Mr. IAW Toyoharu Okumura Spider Katayama KC-CK Kinji Kawagichi Karate Takemisu Ichiro Inuya The Mongolian Mauler Ripper Ito Taru Ueshima Bunka Shintani Bloody Kanaka Shunso Idane Insane Tag Team Division Harakiri Niou Onoe Unaio Uribamo OUCHI Masa Ouchi Goro Ouchi Suffering And Fear Gakuya Yamaoka Tomochika Koizumi Action Division: all the regular Wrestlers Big Dog Titus Kaoyashin Nakuma Takoyo Goto Sadato "Hulk" Katagiri Dick Aratani Ryozo Onishi Yobo Terakado Ryuichi Genki Takamasa Aoya Toshihisa Taiguchi Kyouta Shinden Homare Kantai Kou Tokugana Yasuyuki Tomii Action Tag Team Division Absolute Anarchy Harumi Jumonji Keita Imoo The Roudhouse Daichiro Shimuda Namboku Mitsui The Mawashi Boys Yoshitaro Josuke 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nekochan Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 hey man, i wanted to say that your mod looks great and i'm really looking forward to play. keep up the good work You're getting surprisingly little feedback despite similar mods receiving much more attention and feedback, even though your mod has more to offer. But that's just how people are; they want to celebrate a product because the creator has done good things in the past, and you haven't. No wonder more people are losing passion for modding.
