cesspool Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 I'm a little surprised by the negative feedback on the UI, to be honest. To me, at least, clicking on a few extra tabs isn't that much of a hassle and is a fair trade-off for how much easier on the eyes everything is now. I feel like my brain registers all the data a whole lot better when it's more spread out and I'm pretty sure this new designer is much more newbie friendly. The game just feels less overwhelming like this. 13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattywood Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 4 hours ago, MadsMC said: The new angle system will grow on me, but I don't hate it. The one thing I don't like about it are the storyline victories. I tried to give David Stone a storyline victory over Cameron Vessey, which made him furious, and I had to rebook. Even a minor one wouldn't work. Obviously, I'm not going to have Vessey jobbing out to Stone at this point, but if I can't make him look strong in matches, and now in angles too, his storyline momentum is going to be pretty bad... Echoing what you said here. In real life, Hulk Hogan, for all of his faults of "That doesn't work for me brother," he was more than happy to let Earthquake hit him with several Earthquake Splashes on the Brother Love Show. He had no qualms about the Big Boss Man beating the tar out of him. He was willing to act like he was terrified of Sting during their feud in WCW 1997. Or how about having Macho Man beat him down backstage to confirm the split of the Mega Powers? So many other real life examples that involve so many other wrestlers with huge egos not having any qualms about allowing someone to get one over on them in an angle segment, & if I try to list them here, we'll be here all night. In fact, the only real instances of workers having problems with angles were not even about getting beat down or a worker getting a storyline victory over them, but more because a worker may have been a prima donna (the infamous Ultimate Warrior/Jake Roberts skits, if what Jake said is to be believed), or a worker being uncomfortable with the risque nature of the angle, which is already covered by workers with the appropriate attributes refusing to work risky angles & matches. I apologize in advance if this comes off as an attack since we cannot tell tone through text. My intention is to give my honest thoughts after trying a bit of the beta myself with a converted version of Fleisch & Skycrasher's 1992 mod & booking an angle where the Undertaker & Ric Flair beat down Hulk Hogan. Hogan complained. Now in a match where he's not made to look strong, OK, fair point. But an angle? I'm not so sure about. Now all of that said, I love the new options we have in angles, such as making them pre-taped, videos, outside, backstage, etc. But I'm not keen on the change when it comes to storyline victories in angles & workers getting upset about putting over others in angles. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real focus on the female, masked and Japanese wrestlers and a much greater standardisation of front facing, studio-lit images.

Unlike previous iterations which was saved in "Windows (C:) > Program Files (x86)", TEWIX is automatically downloaded into "Documents" unless you changed it manually.

No one has any hidden attributes. I'm going to just delete and re-add all of the attributes one by one to see what's flagging it. Edit: Yeah, this has to be a bug. If I use the in-game editor to delete and then add all of the same attributes, the penalty goes away. Edited July 28 by D.W. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCStensland Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Might be a dumb question but can we move the TEW IX folder out of the OneDrive and put it in the same place as TEW 2020?

Blackman Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Finally able to take a look. At first sight it looks like the picture size has been reduced? Why did that suddenly happen? On a big monitor, I can barely see the image at all. It's literaly 1/32th of the entire width of the screen. Imo there was nothing wrong with the stable images on the background of the standard GIF image. This new style offers more options, yes, but don't shrink the one graphic this game has. I saw the option "background logos" and turned it off, thinking it might fix this, but instead it becomes some black space with the name of the game on it? Please have the picture extend in this case instead of this? I cannot imagine anyone, anyone at all, who would play the game this way... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stable/company border GIF are potentially helpful, but shouldn't be done at the cost the worker. I'm wondering if the gif could be done a header/footer. Rather than encompass the entire worker, a logo at the top for stable, a logo at the bottom for company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the "Default_Alt" database with the "Default_Alt" pictures. There are plenty of people who like the GIF versions, but the normal JPEG versions were included for people like you who may prefer it the "old" way.

Doing "header/footer" would not improve the sizes of the worker images but I'm sure plenty of people are already thinking how best to use the new GIF system so custom modifications may surprise you in the near future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHUK Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 I noted about the angles earlier, I just found the quick angle button and it's super easy and enjoyable to use. I understand why it's a button press as it uses the form to fill out the new angle editor, maybe there could be an option to open it by default for people who prefer the simpler forms. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
