MMA: Origins

[Phaeno]

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=78WTNOMK VERSION 1.2

Threw this together after finding out that the poster behind Fresh Start didn't plan on making that mod for WMMA3. This is my first WMMA game and my first mod, so I definitely appreciate any help, changes, or errors you find.

CHANGES

Version 1.2 (1/20/2011)

*Added the new fighters from version 1.1 of the game. Modified as usual.

Version 1.1 (12/11/2010)

*Added PPV Carrier and TV Station pictures as included in the retail version of the game

*Added the extra retail fighters to the database and modified them as normal. However, a large number of these fighters debut later than 1998 in the default database. Therefore, they debut later in MMA: Origins as well. Their debut year is their original debut year -7, as to fit in the with the time frame of MMA: Origins.

Version 1.0

*Game begins on January of 1991 to take full advantage of the new Era system

*All regions begin as unregulated, with no media or authority bias, and with 50 media and authority feeling

*All CEO's are born 7 years earlier to compensate for the game beginning in 1991, debut as the game starts, and have a Very Low reputation.

*All companies begin with no CEO or founders, no contracts, no momentum, 5 popularity in their home region, and weak finances. The eight companies available at the start of the default database all debut at the start of the game, with the others still set to debut randomly.

*All fight teams begin with no founders or members and 10 reputation. The fight teams already open at the start of the default database all debut at the start of the game, with the others still set to debut randomly.

*No companies begin with any PPV or TV station contracts.

*The Hall of Fame has been wiped clean, with no fighters nominated.

*All titles have been erased, as I've been given the impression that the AI will create titles for the promotions at the start of the game.

*All fighters debut at the start of the game with no popularity, reputation, performance, aura, momentum, or record. All fighters are also born 7 years earlier to compensate for the game beginning in 1991.

Sounds like it will be cool, will try it out later.

[HansLanda11]

How did you make everyone 7 years younger? I cannot figure out how unless you did it manually.

[Phaeno]

Yep, I did it manually. Trust me, it took ages.

[Phaeno]

Also, I noticed that Adam has confirmed that the full version of the game will have some additional fighters...I'll add them to this database (modified as well, of course), and upload it as soon as possible. Look for it the day of release.

[Rathen4]

Sounds amazing, a whole new fresh clean universe. Awesome.

[ripwalk]

Sounds good I will try this out.

Question thoug, do all the fighters in the game debut in 1991, or do some come along later?

[Phaeno]

Since the default database starts in 1998 and all the demo fighters debut before then, I went ahead and had all the fighters debuting at the start of the game, in January of 1991. However, if the fighters Adam is adding in the full version debut after 1998, I'll modify them accordingly for this mod and have them debut later.

[Jacko00]

This is what I was thinking of doing myself, except my plan is to start in 1998 and have only the oldest fighters start in the universe, make them a bit younger and then have a system where all 18 year old debut in 2010, 19 year olds in 2009, 20 year olds in 2008 and so on, also have featherweights and women debut at a certain date like 2005 and 2006, I think there is enough fighters to make this happen.

[Eyeball]

Just to ensure that nobody wastes an insane amount of time on this: WMMA3 editing tool allows you to edit characters en masse, both resetting their records to 0-0 and lowering their experience levels.

Just thought I'd point this out in case anyone hadn't noticed.

[Phaeno]

Yeah, that tool was super helpful. The only changes that really took me a lot of time were the birth and debut dates.

[Phaeno]

Updated to v 1.1

[Rathen4]

This is a fabulous mod - only problem is GAMMA, ALPHA-1 etc go out of business VERY quickly.

They do. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated. I'm thinking that I may just give all companies more starting money so hopefully they can establish themselves and start bringing in a profit before they go broke.

I grabbed V1.1 but there's no graphics. Are your younger renders in a different spot? Thanks!

[BuddyGarner]

Is there a can pack?

[Phaeno]

I didn't actually add any new renders...the game does start 7 years before the default database, but the fighters' birth dates are adjusted accordingly, so no one is actually starts any younger in this mod than in the default database.

Is there a can pack?

All I have in this mod are the "official" fighters included in the retail release of the game. Should another mod maker show an interested in throwing together some cans, I'd probably be happy to add them, though.

[hlg.]

this is awesome. i was hoping for a fresh start, and now i don't have to do it myself.

thank you sooooo much for the time and effort put in to this. i promise to put as much (or even more) effort and time into playing this mod.

No problem. I made it for myself and I figured I might as well share it with the community. Glad to hear some people are getting use of it! I haven't quite gotten the bankrupting issue out of the way yet...I'll be raising the starting finances of all the companies in the next version, I think.

[hlg.]

yeah most companies seem to go bankrupt quickly, but i tweaked it myself. the only thing that almost bothers me is seeing so many retire with a 0-0 record. but hey, the regeneration takes care of that!

and for the record, i'm seriously addicted to this game. by far the best one in the series. now i'm just waiting for the grey dog intervention tv show.

They haven't called you yet?

[hlg.]

don't have a cell phone. will probably get one as soon as the wmma series can be carried around in my pocket though.

n00b question:

I try to extract this to my database folder and I'm getting errors. What am I doing wrong and how do I do it correctly? Thanks.

Disregard above. I "unidioted" myself.
