Yeah thats pretty much just a rain texture blended in with the scene, over top of the dude in the coat. Looks like some soft or hard light in there.

Izzy finished up those worker pics, I'll have a new list up shortly.

Rocky Feller, I'm not trying to be a dick but your cutting needs some serious work. I don't know if it's that you're not taking your time, don't realize they're that bad or what, but it look seriously rushed. Look around for some cutting tutorials. If you're using Photoshop here are some tutorials on cutting with the pen tool: http://www.celoxdesign.net/free-photoshop-tutorials/pen-tool-cutting-out-objects/id/23

As for Cena, I'm still going with Cena/Lizzy Project X. Some pics to get started on...

Anyone have Photoshop and want to help compile a pic pack? I'm going through right now and changing each person's bio to fit iDOM, and give each person a picture (those that I can anyway.) I've finished 350 workers, but it's taking the most time to find and format the pics. As for the structure, It's pretty simple. I'm just finding a picture and cropping it to 150x150 and adding a 3 pixel black border. Here are some examples of what the pics look like: If there are enough people interested I'll post some blocks of workers to find pics for.

Yeah, the gimmick most are getting behind for Rocky is Austin's gimmick pretty much.

Well said, yeah that's the whole point of this thread. Up until it was mentioned I hadn't much thought of the economy, but now that it's been pointed out topped off with the fact that you can simulate a shit economy in TEW I think it's a great idea to not turn a blind eye and actually work it in a bit. Like I said, some great suggestions have come to light in this thread.

My thinking is Lesnar to Austin at Starrcade > Austin gets his token run that is a must with the way 08 was set up > Orton defeats Austin making it a short reign > Orton's reign is highly disliked and he's defeated by Jericho who becomes the top face and had been in contention since Sting handed him the torch.

That's why I posted the timeline - I want Orton's reign to be a bit of a flop, just to make things not so perfect. Looking back, I agree maybe Austin should take the title at Starrcade, with Orton winning it in 09. All your input is helping shape this greatly by the way, keeping it coming guys - great stuff

Percy Jackson was that bad, Split? I'm supposed to go see it with the girlfriend - I'll have to convince her to see another one instead.

AA will pretty much have a whole new class of wrestlers, considering in 08 there were a number of veterans still there. Speaking of "Classes," I plan on using the Dojo system in the game and I've already included Tough Enough as the official Dojo for TWE. I'll also be using developmental promotions so Promotions like NWA: NY (TWE's Developmental Fed) will be in the game and their booking will be able to be seen. Seeing how the AI handles the results should be a great deal of fun, and the main reason I want this on TEW so bad.

Well, that is where he was stationed in the original NWA Domination

Yeah for sure. I'm looking into having a European fed, One or two British ones, an Australian one, and probaly keeping a bit of Japan the same as real life for the most part. I'm not all that knowledgeable on these areas though so some suggestions on what rosters should look like would be a huge help. ^^ In BG James case, He'll always have a spot in Memphis be it an agent role or an in ring one with his family ties. I agree with most of them for the most part, and even have other plans for a lot of the bunch.

That's part of the beauty of it being an alternate reality though. And in the case of Austin, he was on the verge of becomming the biggest start but a car wreck took that out. That's why he's taken longer to catch on. The Rock on the other hand has stayed loyal to Hawaii, and is just breaking out.

There's no reason he couldn't, it's not like he wouldn't leave NWA:MC. RVD would probably be a good choice to move up to RFP, or perhaps even Calgary. He'd make a nice addition to the main event scene in either promotion. Or possibly Memphis, which could do with someone that isn't a Lawler or Jarrett at the top >_>. Also, three words - Steven Regal Push. edit: Also I'm not sure how much I like Austin not being the one to take down Lesnar. I'd have liked to have seen Austin beat him in a straight match at Starrcade 08, then drop the title to Orton somewhere down the line. Would Randy be using the Legend Killer gimmick or the Pyscho one he has going on now? I'd hope he's not a face. Orton's iDOM history is that he's trouble backstage, and spent much of 2008 in rehab for drug problems. The typical "had everything handed to him" dickhead. However after returning from rehab and cleaning up his act a bit, RFP has fully gotten behind him. He's a heel, and a dick one at that still. The title line was supposed to represent a year long feud between Lesnar and Austin. Austin hands Lesnar his first loss, but it's by disqualification at WCCW's Pay Per View on March 22nd. Then, in a rematch at the NWA Anniversary Show, Austin is finally able to hand Lesnar his first pinfall loss and take the strap. However, Rhodes and Company the very next night have arranged for a rematch which Lesnar wins to take the title back. In order to get another shot Austin is forced to win the World War 3 Interpromotional Battle Royal - which he only co-wins when he and Orton are eliminated at the same time. Thus it sets up the three way for Starrcade in which Austin should finally be able to have his day in the sun, only for Orton to sneak away with the title. Orton's push is supposed to be a forced push to the top and not liked when by all means Starrcade should have saw the real feud ending match between Austin and Lesnar with Steve finally getting his reign. Ah yes that reminds me, ILA is still ILA. Only in 2010 the company has become a much more American/Lucha hybrid as Konnan feels that is the path to finally attain the NWA Title for ILA. FMLL is a new Mexican Promotion focused on more traditional Lucha Libre, while ILA has began to prominently feature foreigners like AJ Styles, Jack Evans, and other American Juniors.

While not complete, or set in stone by any means, this was the working timeline for the belt in 2008: My plans for the AWA in 2010 were a merger between Smoky Mountain Wrestling and the AWA, in hopes of giving AWA a little more credibility with a deeper roster and a guy like James Cornette helping their cause.

The Scott Steiner thing is a joke by C-Mil just for the record

I would really love to see someone book TWE without any roster additions, I really would. When I was thinking about updating iDOM for '09 I had a timeline mapped out of Lesnar's year with the title. I think a timeline of the defenses and title changes would work great for the main titles. Also, since I have Indesign, I'm thinking a magazine will be released with this version much like the NWA Handbook was released with the last one.

:/

Here's the deal - I purchased TEW 2010 about two weeks ago and try as I might, I can not for the life of me get into the Cornellverse. At all. So my solution is simple - update iDOM for TEW 2010. I know there's A LOT of Domers who play iDOM so what I'm asking here is simple. What do you want to see in the next update (for TEW 10)? In '08 we saw that TWE had a Main Event Roster that was dated and frustrating to book. How do you want to see that fixed? I'm open to all ideas - remember this is iDOM two years later.

:lmao: Those are terrible.

Dear John ***1/2 out of ***** I find it crazy all of the hate that this one has been getting. I understand it isn't at The Notebook level as far as Sparks' books turned movies, but I found the movie perfectly acceptable and rather enjoyable. I guess a lot of the hate comes from readers of the book who complained that the movie "changed too much," but I always ask to anyone who expects a line for line book to movie adaptation, "Why would you want to see that if you've already read it?" I live next to an army base myself, so I've seen a lot of the soldier/girlfriend relationship evolve/dissolve after deployment. I thought the movie was a decent enough case study about a relationship and its hardships when the two people have to be apart for an extended period of tie and how much can actually change.

I use the screen protector on both screens, for the touch screen I did have to trim it up a bit with a pair of scissors though because the edge was a bit too long.

Gaga got screwed. Taylor Swift Album of the year? Fuck that noise. Discuss.

Not sure about The Gimp, but I know in photoshop sometimes kyky is set to Greyscale mode which in turn makes all other layers in that window greyscale as well. See if you can change the mode of your image in Gimp to RGB.
