  1. Yeah, the fact that they were a couple years ago makes Viva's point. His real life abilities showed not a single decrease in real life between his WCW run and when started actively working in WWE again in the mid 00s'. So why lower them based on an assumption when he has proven to be adept at his style despite his age or time away? Big difference in coming back in your 40's and in your 50's. Biology tells us this. But you're still making huge assumptions. I wouldn't mind lowering his stats just a hair, but lowering them more than a point or two each seems unjustly harsh based on no evidence.
  2. Finlay's stats should be lowered slightly but probably not as drastically as suggested. Wrestlers like Undertaker, Sting, Triple H, The Rock, etc. wrestle irregularly, but we aren't lowering their stats.
  3. Sorry to hear about the family emergency, Bill. I hope everything is okay in your world. I appreciate the fact you still pump these scenarios out with such consistency.
  4. I swear I looked... wow. I feel like a dumbass now. I even tried alter egos. I'm going to go shake my head at what an idiot I was.
  5. There are still some minor details to get finished on this one (some wrestlers and staff to add if I can get pictures and figure out stats). I don't know... It took me so long to finish this one. I might look at starting another one in a bit. I'd be open to suggestions. I'm thinking either 1997 or mid-'96, probably July 1st, 1996, which would be right before Bash At The Beach '96, when the nWo was formed.
  6. Jericho was still a tweener around this time, beginning the angry young man gimmick that would evolve into the most famous part of his WCW stint. He was still pretty cheesy in late '97, but he was starting to turn heel by early '98 when he was getting frustrated with losing.
  7. This is a really cool time period. It was before WCW introduced Nitro, before WWF started Monday Night Raw, before wrestling really started doing live television and before it started appealing toward wider audiences and adults instead of families and kids. I was looking over the latest update, and there's a lot of work left to be done. I see a lot of finishers left blank, some stats that haven't been done, and some weird stuff like Chad Austin being named voChad Austin, etc. But I can see you've done quite a bit of work as well. It's going to take a lot of time. It took me literally YEARS to get the 1998 scenario to where it's virtually complete (though I didn't work on it much during some points as I got tired of doing it... it's tedious). I hope you stick with it and get it done, but I can tell there's a lot of stats I don't personally agree with (like Hogan having a higher brawl than British Bulldog, or Bret Hart only having an 84 in tech). But I want to see a really complete 1992 scenario, and given the impressive list of wrestlers and staff and everything else you're putting into the game with all the details, I'm excited for it. EDIT: I could be missing him, but I don't see 2 Cold Scorpio in the scenario? I don't see Mean Mark Callous aka The Undertaker either. I don't see Rey Misterio Jr. either, and I tried searching under his other names.
  8. I've since uploaded a newer update of the scenario: https://www.sendspace.com/file/qx9vnj Hey, just noticed something strange. I was planning my PPV's for WCW, and online it says that Souled Out happened on a Saturday Jan 24. To confirm this, I go to my WCW game to see when it is scheduled and it says the 18th. Is this the correct date or was this generated by the game, seeing as you cannot change the PPV day in the file editor, just the month. I believe a person could change it in the new game, and save those files as your files in the file editor to make it work. Like Rocky said, the dates assigned to PPVs are game generated and can be changed on or before the first day of the month of the PPV/event. I'm not sure if doing a game save and moving it into the file editor would work, especially if someone wanted to play as another company. Thanks. That's good to know. Sorry about that. It's all good. It annoys me about the dates as well, but I don't know a way to fix them, so it's just one of those things, like assigning sponsors at the beginning of the game.

  10. Thanks, Kirkland. And I don't want anyone to forget about the game itself either. The stats, data, etc. can still be looked at/analyzed as needed. I'd appreciate as much feedback and as many additions as possible!
  11. WCW question. At this point in time the only guys I should be doing screens for that have held the title are Flair and Hogan, right? Crow Sting, Goldberg, Nash and Savage hadn't had it yet, right? Sting was actually the champion (won it at Starrcade '97 on December 28th). Randy Savage won the title at World War 3 in 1995 as well. Goldberg and Nash hadn't held the WCW World Title yet (though Nash was WWF Champion). Goldberg was still a rookie midcarder at this point (he debuted in September or October of '97).
  12. I imagine 9 or 10 screens per company? I'll throw some names out, and hopefully it'll help: WCW: Sting, the nWo (Hogan, Nash, Hall, and maybe Syxx or Eric Bischoff preferably), Ric Flair, Macho Man Randy Savage, The Giant, Lex Luger, The Steiner Brothers, DDP, the luchadores or at least Rey Mysterio Jr. or Eddie Guerrero, and Raven and the Flock (though I feel weird about not including Bret Hart) WWF: Undertaker, Shawn Michaels/D-X, Steve Austin, New Age Outlaws, Legion of Doom, Nation of Domination/Rocky Maivia, Owen Hart, Faces of Foley (Mankind, Dude Love, Cactus Jack), Sunny or Sable, and Kane, maybe with Paul Bearer ECW: Shane Douglas/The Triple Threat with Francine, Taz, The Dudleys (with Joel Gertner), RVD and Sabu, Tommy Dreamer, The Sandman, The Pitbulls, Bam Bam Bigelow, Al Snow with Head, and New Jack
  13. The blue theme was more '94-'97, yeah, so I would love a different WCW skin as well. I just didn't want to be extra greedy and request that of you. Thanks, man.
  14. I wish I did! I'm not a graphics guy at all. I'm barely proficient with MS Paint. Doc Pepper, who I don't think posts or even lurks here anymore, made those WCW graphics WAY back in the day when I was working on this years ago. I've thought about asking iDOL or somebody who's good with graphics about making some skins for the scenario, or if anybody wants to try, please do. Do you have any feedback on the scenario itself? I'm going to be releasing a slightly different version of it tonight. EDIT: Here's the link to the most updated version I have, including some stats changes: https://www.sendspace.com/file/kxoy2s I might be able to help out in reguards to skins. EWR skins are kinda simple. Show me this WCW skin that's been made and I'll see if I can match it. Thanks, man. Here's a link to the skin (in a zipped folder): https://www.sendspace.com/file/fw5r7q There aren't any loading screens, I don't think. Here are some screen shots: http://imgur.com/a/4EpNm I'd love to have a loading screen set for WCW, as well as WWF and ECW, if you're up to it...
  15. Here's the link for the latest update, which includes all of the Japanese rosters for the wrestlers in the game: https://www.sendspace.com/file/qx9vnj I'd say the scenario is virtually finished. There are probably wrestlers I could add if I had stats and pics, but for the most part, it is entirely playable. As always, feedback is much appreciated.
  16. One thing I know I still need to finish are the Japanese touring commitments, so any help with that is appreciated. EDIT: Finished the AJPW touring wrestlers, but there are two I need to add who are not in the game (yet): Rusher Kimura (Masao Kimura) and Satoru Asako.
  17. I always liked to pretend it was a special Clash of the Champions (the final one since the real final one was August of 1997). It would serve as a precursor to the live Thunder debut the following week in the same time slot.
  18. Oh man, did I mess up some of the pics for the workers? Sorry about that. I'll have to take a look some time and get all those worker pics fixed. As for some of the changes, for the longest time, I kept the stat caps for wrestling stats around 91-92. I decided to increase the very best in each stat to 93 and kind of change a few others as well. I bumped Eddie Guerrero's wrestling stats up slightly, for example; raised Benoit's tech to 93, Mysterio's speed to 93. I made some overall changes to wrestler stats to reflect some changes of opinion. Don't think it'd be too hard. Bret would've still been with WCW. I don't know when some of the others came over (Bulldog, Anvil, etc.) and you could double check any workers you weren't sure about regarding which side they were on (WCW or WWF). You'd need to make some title changes, obviously, but yeah... Rosters shouldn't be affected too much. I'm trying to think of high profile wrestler deaths in December of 1997.

  20. Here's the last update I had (been really busy lately, so I haven't had a ton of time to work on it). I uploaded it to sendspace since there were complaints regarding filedropper: https://www.sendspace.com/file/d69n2h
  21. I did realize after posting that Harley Lewis was already in the game (forgot I added him), so I just added him to IWA: MS. I need stats for the rest of those guys, if anybody has a suggestion. Keep in mind it's for 1998. Pics and everything else would be nice, too. I'm at the point in the game where it would be nice to have these extra workers for the promotions, but they aren't 100% essential. Some of the promos ask for you to hire extra people but not many (usually 1 or 2). I'm going to tweak some of the other things in the game (advertising and merchandising for the promotions for example, or the belt images that are in the game), but we're getting pretty close to a scenario I would be content with calling "finished", although I really want more staff for the smaller promotions (a lot of them are starting off with JUST owners - I know if we could find a show or something from around the era, we could at least get refs and/or announcers).
  22. Alright, I'm getting to the point where I'm gonna need some help with this scenario. I need to flesh out the staff members who were in the smaller organizations at the time. I also have a list of workers I'd like to add for some of the rosters that I need stats, pics, relationships, alter egos, tag teams, etc. for: All Pro Wrestling: Boom Boom Comini Jason C. Clay Frank Murdoch Jay Smooth Kuame Kamoze Rick Turner Bill Calhoun Chris Colione/Chris Cole Maxx Justice Robert Thompson Chicano Flame East Coast Wrestling Association: Boogie Woogie Brown Mark Shrader Kodiak Bear Extreme Canadian Championship Wrestling:Dark Angel/Angel Williams Billy Two Eagles Destruction Dr. Luther Incubus Iron Maiden John Rambo Johnny Canuck Ladies Choice Michelle Starr Mike Roselli Moondog Chopps Mr. Doby Gillis Ole Olson Prince Aladdin Randy Tyler Ray Brooks Strife The Reaper Vic Vicious Heartland Wrestling Association: Brian Taylor Bounty Hunter/Max Thrasher Xtremist GQ Masters III IWA: Mid-South: Twiggy Ramirez Purple Haze Derek Domino Harley Lewis The War Machines (War Machine #1 & #2) Music City Wrestling: Andy Anderson Blade Bourdreaux Bobby Brawnz Frency Rivera Jason Perry Justin St. John Keith Arden Kenny Arden Moondogs? Terry Golden Tony Street Mid-Eastern Wrestling Federation: Quinn Nash Max Thrasher John Rambo NWA: Ohio Valley Wrestling: David C/Mysterie Jebediah Blackhawk Kousin Krazy Juan Hurtado Dave The Rave World Xtreme Wrestling: Jake Daniels/Jak Molsonn John Rambo The Mad Russian The Russian Eliminator Richard J. Criado
  23. Here's an update - While the staff isn't done, it is sufficient (as in the analysis doesn't say there needs to be any staff added). There are 1763 workers, 18 promotions, 464 staff, 64 belts, 68 events, 510 tag teams... Still got quite a bit of work to do, a list of wrestlers to add for several rosters, and need to touch up pretty much everything, but it's getting there. http://www.filedropper.com/ewr199802052015_1
  24. https://www.linkedin.com/pub/earl-suttle-ph-d/5/403/41?trk=pub-pbmap Earl Suttle graduated with his bachelor's in 1971. Assuming he was 22 at that time, he would be 66 or so now. His age is currently 38, which is greatly underestimated. Jeffrey Dugas (medical) is around 60 years old (graduated college in 1976) - https://www.linkedin.com/pub/jeffrey-dugas-sr-md/3/722/874 Dave Lagana (writer) is around 39 years old (graduated college in 1997) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidlagana Bernie Siegel (road agent) is around 65 years old (graduated college in 1972) - https://www.linkedin.com/pub/bernard-siegel/7/835/6b6
