TEW 08: 1991 AND 1992 RW Mod (Anticipation Station)
Sorry everyone but I had to remake this thread, it seems like a board glitch got the original one deleted. This will fill everyone in:
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f360/withauthority/titlescreenkp3.jpg
1991
It is year 1991 and the 1990’s are still very young. Wrestlemania is 4 months away, and for this year Vince McMahon has big plans to run Wrestlemania in the largest arena yet, the LA Sports Coliseum, with hopes of breaking the Wrestlemania III attendance record and of course, making a truckload of money. It’s obvious however that it will be harder then he thinks. His big idea to run Hulk Hogan Vs. freshly heel turned Sgt. Slaughter in an American Hero Vs. Iraq Sympathizer match is flopping, as early reaction to the gimmick has been luke-warm.
That is not Vince’s only option however.
Mark Calloway, formerly known as Mean Mark, recently debuted at the last PPV under an intriguing gimmick where he is being referred to as The Undertaker. Unlike Slaughter, the reaction to the Undertaker has been red hot from the very beginning. His undead monster character is the perfect one for a Hogan feud one would think.
Or will the enigmatic Ultimate Warrior not drop the belt at all. Will you instead try to rely on the Warrior to fill the Coliseum, to load the Coliseum, load them with the Warriors?
In general, will you continue to run with the old guard, or begin the "New Generation" a few years early. It could be a long road to re-condition fans to not believing the "Bigger is Better" approach that the company has pushed for so many years, but talented as well as charismatic wrestlers such as Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels could make the transition easy.
As WCW, will you continue to try and style yourself as the WWF despite fans objection, or push a contrasting product to satisfy your longtime fans and convert others. A lightweight division perhaps, or an infusion of foreign talent. A properly formed 4 Horseman if nothing else.
Or, as the WWF, will you try to get the one and only Ric Flair away from the WCW in time to do Hogan Vs. Flair for the first time ever? How will you "Fill The Coliseum"? One thing is for sure--- Hogan-Slaughter isn't going to do it.

Look forward to seeing how this one turns out man.
Very impressed with the number of workers you got and the fact you are aiming for something era specific, though I wonder how possible that is with the amount of data you are working with.
Most of the top 3's look good to me, a few I disagree with and some of it is a little USA-centric but it looks like being a solid mod.

I'm excited to give this a try.
I might not rank the Undertaker a top 3 brawler or Hogan top 3 in psychology, but that stuff is open to change. :)
Definitely looking forward to the release, good work even by completing it.

I second Tarheelia up there, have to love 90s mods.
But I have one concern though about the stats you provided. Toughness is not how much punishment one can take, its how tough one is, meaning, how good they'd be in real life fights. This has been confirmed by many cources in the past.
With that in mind, I'd rethink Foley as one of the top 3 toughest people in 92.

Really. How would that ever come to play in a game like TEW? I had Foley there totally on the basis that it meant toughness in general, not real life fighting. Ill have to look into that

06-08-2008, 01:30 PM
I think D16NJD16 is right, why would being tough in real life fights matter in a wrestling sim?
D16NJD16
06-08-2008, 01:44 PM
Oh and some news, everyone will see from the topic the the release date for this is pushed back as I've decided, since I was working on it for myself anyway, to also release my 1991 mod, which obviously will be directly based from the 1992 mod. So a little variety of choice I figure. In addition to major roster changes obviously, there will also be minor statistical changes, but the mods will definitely go hand in hand with one another. sorry for the delay but i was on vacation and havent even had the chance to buy the full version of TEW yet.

Dont worry theyre actually A rated right along with him, I think all around the 85-90 range, I just got more then 3 in the A and above range when I did the filter, so I didnt feel like listing them all.

How it matters is it adds a lot of legitimacy to the wrestlers, and ultimately, the company. You need a real world parallel, Bill Watts fired anybody who lost a real life fight outside wrestling. I'm not being a prick and saying just because I like it that way, it has to be, but I remember Adam saying thats what the toughness stat meant.

I don't think so. It's personality what matters in the backstage incidents. I don't think there other incidents if one of the backstage brawlers is a lot tougher than the other. Eventhough it would be fun to read "Balls Mahoney ripped a new A-hole for Randy Orton in a backstage brawl initiated by Randy".

But I mean, we're not gonna argue about that, it's individual interpretation.
For the record thats a bit of a dated screenshot, his brawling has since been revised the past week from the 55 range to 45. Minor but brings it down a letter grade which is not only probably more accurate, but looks better cosmetically. When it comes to the Warrior, there is no individual interpreation, he blew in ring.

I have to say that as a mod-maker, having alter-egos that did not appear until later are pretty essential to include in most games. While most of us know the alter egos of Cactus Jack, you have no idea how many lesser known workers changed gimmicks a few times during the '90s, to leave out future alter egos would be to leave out a significant chunk of important information for players who want a particular wrestler but don't know what gimmick they were using in 92. I think D16NJD16 made the right call on this.
Oh one thing though D16NJD16, pretty sure Jeanie Clark is English not American as she is listed.
Also great to see someone else including Reggie Bennett, she was one of the better American women of the '90s

Those of us who play for long term playability will definitely appreciate future gimmicks.

As far as the future alter ego thing goes, if someone creates a real life 1970s mod, would you really want Sterling Golden to be the mainstream driving force for 1980s wrestling, or would you rather he was called Hulk Hogan........?
Its perhaps a little wrong to have the alter egos possibly debut before they are supposed to be used, but as others have said, to make long-term mods playable, having them there to be used at the right times is need!
James Casey
06-11-2008, 05:29 PM
Totally agree.
Also on Jeannie Clark - she wasn't 27 in 1991. At least, not unless she was 14 or 15 in 1978 when she appeared in her first match with Adams...
Bradshaw 2?
And Bobby Heenan and Nick Bockwinkel (if he's in) should be friends.
Really looking forward to this - but will I play WCW or WWF? Hmm...

Yea I mean to me it works perfectly, so that if and when Mick Foley gets signed to WWF, he'll go in as Mankind, or a much lesser chance, Cactus Jack or Dude Love. Its worked out really well when I've simmed it. Or Kevin Nash using Diesal only in the WWF, but never anywhere else.
Also fixed Jeannie Clarke's age, her age wasen't listed on wikipedia or anywhere else, but I was able to get a much closer estimate from a Chris Adams shoot interview that said she was 20-21 when she "first started out".
Anyone have anymore final bio or pic requests?

This mod is looking to be so awesome it's effing crazy. Can't wait for this. Btw ... I noticed you are also doing quite the deep write ups for angles. I am doing that as well when I write angles on the fly when I am booking, problem is that the game doesn't show it all as there is no scrolling down possible atm and it only shows a fraction of the stuff you wrote. I hope Adam is gonna address that eventually ..

A few new things you'll find in this mod:
As has already been discussed, the alter egos, previous gimmicks, current gimmicks, and future gimmicks. Some you may be expecting, some you may not remember, and some you may have never even heard of if your a new fan. I'm not quite done yet, but the number is at about 300. Here is a full look at them as is right now:

I'm almost certain this inclusion will be Gary Albrights TEW Mod debut, as I've never seen him in any of the other mods I've ever played personally. You'll find alot of other instances of wrestlers similar to Albright who for one reason or another have always seemed to allude most mods
Such as:
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f360/withauthority/TEWJaimson.jpg
Okay seriously now, Gary Albrights style is likely to mesh well with and possibly led to him being signed by...
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f360/withauthority/TEWUwfi.jpg
UWFi, the hyper-realism "shoot" promotion based in Japan. It was probably the most realistic worked promotion I've ever seen to this day. It will be a "Yet To Debut" promotion in the 1991 Mod, and feature full roster in the 1992 Mod.
And heres a random stables (active and inactive) overview:

I'm Impressed you are getting UWFi into the mod, I'm interested to see how well a worked shoot-style promotion will go down in the game.

Would Hyper Realism really be their Key Feature, rather than Realism?
My understanding is that Hyper Realism = MMA... I'm not sure if that's what you described. It might be though.

Hyper Realism is closer to MMA than Realism as that is more like the strong style of Japan.

You can't have true shoot matches in TEW. The outcome will always be based on someone booking it, be it you or if you leave the notes blank, the road agent in question. So hyper realism in a nutshell is basically .. LIKE MMA but not quite there ^^

06-12-2008, 06:03 PM
Yeah UWFi wasn't actually a shoot, but it was as close to it as worked pro wrestling gets. Like someone said since no actual shoot matches exist in TEW, I put it at Hyper Realism all the way, and it sims well.

Another update for everyone. Just today I was lucky enough to stumble upon a great asset, which is the 1990 Wrestling Observer Yearbook. For those of you who dont remember these, they featured a wrestler directory, listing every promotions rosters(as of 1/1/91 for example), as well as hundreds of free agents. It is far superior to Solie.org. Now I wish I had discovered this months ago before I took on finding these things out in much harder ways, but Im still figuring to be adding a decent amount from this, I added 30 guys from the free agent section that I thought retired alone this past hour.

Anyways this is shaping up to be one of the most realistic and well put together mods on the forum. You clearly know your subject matter and it really shows. Can't wait to try this out as 1992 was one of my favorite years in wrestling. The 1992 Rumble will always have a special place in my mind.

I just imagined that not everyone has an encyclopedic memory of what certain point certain guys were at in their career 10 or 15 years ago now at this point and it would be pretty useful to put as much time specific info in there as possible, at least for all the major guys.

You can get both out at the same time so they get same focus from you. Those bios rock! The stats of the mod seem to be in nice balance to allow smooth gameplay, can't wait to try out by myself.

Maybe Clarity would let you pack his website mod in with this? Or heck, maybe someone would be nice enough to do a real world website mod? Maybe like some PWTorch graphics or something? :cool: That'd be sweet.

As for the banners it's going to feature about 7-10 promotion specific ones, and then a few website ones.
Im not really going to mess with all the screens, thats up to a persons preference, but with that said, everyone can be expecting some graphics posted in the final few days before the release.

Alot of the cuts at the bottom of the 91 screen don't fit in with the time period at all. It's akward seeing King Booker, a current era Undertaker, etc. on the same screen as old school Sting and a young Hogan, Warrior, and Flair.

Incidentally, I would lose the title screen thing. It looks awful and amateurish, a better title screen would be suited to this mod. I'm sure there are plenty of graphic artist on this board who would gladly offer to make you a more suitable one.
Having said that I am looking forward to this mod, it shows some promise. Especially as you seem to be taking your time over it, and not rushing it out the door to gain some forum adoration. Unlike some mods that have been released thus far.

It was apparently due to Hogan's unwillingness to lose to Ric Flair and his departure for WCW the had them change the main event. That's what they say anyway. I'm not sure that big Sid would have the political clout to be able to change the Wrestlemania main event in any case.

And all are pretty much "height of popularity" in the wrestlers time line. So having the group of future stars have a picture that co-insides with when they were the stars, faded and below the current stars........works great.

Actually just from reading about it a few nights ago in the Observer, Hogan and Flair were scheduled to have a feud after Wrestlemania, obviously people thought it was going to happen right away, but it didn't. However even as late as March 1992 according to Meltzer yes it was still planned to happen. But then it got scrapped because Hogan went on hiatus once the scandal started.

Although I should point out, one doesn't have to be a professional to produce work to a professional standard. Regardless, I'm sure there are, aside from myself, other members of this forum who are in the profession of art and design who would no doubt gladly, free of charge, offer to create a title screen for D16NJD16 and his mod (Which I have no doubt will be a fine one).

For both 1991 and 1992 I definitely wanted to have the current main eventers and big stars sort of big and large in the background, say Hogan, Warrior, Savage, Flair. And then more on the bottom, in front of them but much smaller, almost in the shadow so to speak, what ended up being the stars of the future, say Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Steve Austin, Brian Pillman, etc.
As for the background, 1992 I'm not sure, but for 1991, I wanted to have something that would fit with the name of the mod, which is "Filling the Colliseum", and the meaning behind that is that in 1991 the WWF had planned to try and run Wrestlemania in the LA Colliseum, which fits like 90,000 fans and is gigantic, but because the main event was so lackluster and the product getting to be stale, they had to move to something smaller, like the LA sports Arena, because they knew they could not "Fill The Colliseum". With that said, I was thinking of having a shot of the Colliseum in the background
(I really like this shot http://www.chrisputro.com/ballparks/...20Coliseum.jpg)
Thats what I got goin in my head right now
I took an hour to find the pics, I took an hour to download photoshop again (as I havent used it since I made screens for Forlan and D. Boon), and I took a little over an hour to make the actual screen... I think it turned out pretty good. Sorry it disappointed others, guess it's time to "retire" the photoshop again as I dont have the "touch" no mo'...

I'll include any title screens regardless of title name sure, but yeah thats my name for it. All I'd really like is for the mod really to become to be associated as the '90's mod' as much as DOTT is the '80's mod'

Actually, 'The 90's Mod' sounds like a cool name. Written in a garish 90's style font, that may look good.

Effects: yes, photoshop filters: no. As much as it makes it look more stylised and graphic, anyone that's used photoshop knows exactly what filter has been used and how easy it was to implement it. It's a fine title screen, don't get me wrong, but the filters let it down.
With regards to the missing dojo workers, perhaps you should ask Adam about that. In case it is a glitch in the editor or something.

Oh ok I gotcha. Yeah I normally don't use the filters as I think they look cheesy. However, with this being an early 90's mod I thought it would fit perfectly. It reminds me of something that I would see during the early 90's and that was what I was going for.

It'd be cool if there was something other than table, as you can tell it's not what everything is really laying on.
But that's more nitpicky, since it's not really in the foreground. Oh, and there should be an apostrophe in 90's.

you take that same screen, darken it, take out the 90's mod part... and it would be a great background for all the other screens in the game. not that it would be a horrible title screen. I just think it would be an awesome start to a total screen mod.

Thank you sir. I did consider making a total screen mod, until I found out just how many screens were in the game. Although, if this design does prove popular I could consider doing it, including various 90's wrestling trinkets throughout.
There was no apostrophe in the font that I was using. I could add one from another font mind you. Any suggestions as to what I could use in the background as opposed to the table?

not me.... those three sections arent that big of a deal, and can be redone easily, not a big set back having to start them over. why test another week? they dont really affect gameplay, if he thought it was ready BEFORE they got deleted, then the mod she still be ready.

Both of these mods look fantastic and have the potentail to be better than 'End of the Golden Era' on TEW '05 which is still my favourite mod ever. I'm a huge mark for the early 90's period of wrestling.
One quick question though, any idea what time the mods will be released tomorrow? I get in from work at around 6pm UK time and it'll either be a case of straight in, download and play or else get in, dinner, few beers in the pub then home to download and play, depending on what time it will be released.

Were you able to re-enter all of the data that was lost, D16? Hoping this is the complete, perfect mod we're all thinking it will be. No pressure, though. :p

You head south until the weather turns warm and the people start speaking a foreign language. You continue south until you see a red man with horns on his head and a pitchfork. When you see him, you are about halfway there.

Bangs head on wall. Sorry, was tired when I read it. I saw the 4 and then the reference to WM 3 and put 2 and 2 together and ended up with 3. :o:D

Longview eh? I've actually never been through Longview (hard to believe considering how small our state is :cool: ) but I've been to Tyler and I think I've passed just outside of LV en route to Shreveport.

Right, it's 6.45 pm here just now. I'm away to the pub for a few hours, hopefully play this first thing in the morning through the haze of my Saturday hangover.

I didn't really follow this until today but I am hyped up for this thing. Looks like it will be the first real mod to come out for 08.

Your one of the lucky ones :p This thing has spanned 3 different threads and I only started one when I was 50% complete. This could have been a year long countdown
