Modifiable name files

[Horatio Hammerlock]

I'm an OOTP baseball fan and one of the features that I enjoy is the ability to modify the name file for computer generated players. I think this would be a nice addition to TEW. It would be great to be able to modify the files used to generate the names of new wrestlers, tag teams, PPVs, and TV shows.

Welcome to the forums. One of them is called Total Extreme Wrestling Suggestions. That's where you should have posted this.

It's a pretty cool idea, dunno how easy it would be to implement in the code though. I think that the databases are hard-coded into the game, so it might take a bit of work for Adam to do. I really yhink that the shows and teams would be best served with this, as wrestlers usually have pretty good names, and I think most of them are generated randomly for first and last name combinations.

I think in TEW2007 this is unnecessary seeing as how you can program in future workers.

There's really only so many you can program in. It's not like you can put in people who are going to debut in the future, so that's why the random workers are still needed (if you want more workers).

I know. But that means if you want a particular name to be generated, then you can edit that worker in. The random workers file does a good job of making regular names, and if you want your name to show up, you can make a future worker to be yourself.

I think that there could still be a possibility of ading some first and last names to the list to expand on it. Plus, what if you just thought of a name, but it wasn't attached to a wrestler, and you wanted that person to be randomly generated? I think it's a good idea, but we could 100% go without it.

Wait, can't you go into the In-Game Editor and change his name inside of there to what ever you please?

I think I might me mistaken on to what he means, but you can change your stats and such accordingly to you in there.

You can edit their names to whatever you want, but what I think is meant here is to add surnames and first names, not actual wrestlers. You know so there is more variety in the names generated.
