Huge US location file...download here.

[tnafan]

This is a huge location mod for TEW 2005 created from scratch by tnafan and flaviooooo. It includes specific arenas and venues from around the world. The file can just be copied over your existing location.tew file.

Here's what's included:

- 1,369 specific arenas/venues, all in the US, Canada, UK, and Europe.

The sizes of these locations are very accurate. I rounded up or down to fit them into these categories and the game restraints. Suggestions or comments are welcome!

Version 2 Released!
- adapted data to new "Tiniest" location
- added more US Tiny and Tiniest locations
- added locations in Quebec, Ontario, and British Columbia
- added Adam's default locations to fill in locations I haven't done or won't do (Mexico, Japan, Europe)

Version 3 Released!
- added locations of various sizes in The Maritimes and The Prairies (Canada)

Version 4 Released!
- merged flaviooooo's UK and European location mod to the data
- includes over 600 locations from those two game areas
- added about 25 Tiniest locations in US
- changed name of Viking Hall
- deleted Winnipeg Arena and added Winnipeg Convention Centre, also updated Winnipeg's demographics

Enjoy!!!

looking good tna.

[Payne]

Good job, buddy.

[DodgyDavid]

great stuff m8, thx alot

[rayps23]

hey with a new Tiniest location coming soon will you be updating or adding any ones to the list you have done already. and again great job.

[TommyDreamerFan]

I'm sad, you left out the Deer Park Community Center (AKA The NYWC Arena)

[flaviooooo]

Very nice man

[tnafan]

hey with a new Tiniest location coming soon will you be updating or adding any ones to the list you have done already. and again great job.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. I'm gathering tiny locations around the country to add into the next update (I've already added around 25 more). If there are some bigger arenas I missed, let me know. If there's anything that needs changed on the ones I've done, just let me know.

TommyDreamerFan, I've added it and it will be in the next update.

Thanks for all the replies!

[rayps23]

TNA sorry for that i was reading in the update page and adam said he will be adding a tinest location in the next update so i was wondering if you would be making the new tinest locations to the ones you have already done.

Okay, I didn't know Adam was adding a smaller location size. I'm assuming that tiniest will be under 500 capacity or something like that. I will update all the locations I have that would fit in that category, although it'll be kind of difficult. A lot of the tiny locations I have don't have a set capacity, so I'll use my best judgement. That will be in the next update.

[Horizon]

Quality. Cheers man.

[tnafan]

Thanks for all the positive comments!

Version 2 will be released this weekend. It will include a bunch of new tiny/tiniest locations. I'm also going to go back through the tiny arenas and move the smaller ones to tiniest. I'm aiming for 650 locations in this update.

[rayps23]

thanks man i like this update better then ravex. i know that it is 2 totally diffrent updates. i like playing the original data and these places make it seem like yo are actually going to these places. thanks again for all your hard work.

[Consrvtve]

What folder should your real life locations.tew file be in? I can't find it to import and I can't replace the current locations because without the foriegn locales the game won't load.

[MrCanada]

how I did it is I created a new database named "imports" and then put the locations file in there, then using hte import feature I just imported all the stuff over.

[Consrvtve]

For the updates, I live in Steubenville, Ohio. We have a place called St. John's Arena. Max, it could fit 5000 people and Raw had a house show last summer there so we've seen WWE action (not to mention WCW came in 97 or 98.) Could you add us to the next update?

[Matt799]

I noticed that the Mid-Hudson Civic Center doesnt have a description. Its located in Poughkeepsie,NY and is an old ECW Arena.

MrCanada's idea is probably the best for version 1. In version 2, I'll add Adam's default locations for the regions I haven't created any for. That way you could just paste the location file over the old one.

BTW, I've finished sorting through the Tiny locations, moving some of them to Tiniest.

Also, I'll have some arenas added from Quebec, Ontario, and BC in Canada.

I'm going to add it right now and it'll be in version 2. Thanks for the suggestion!

Also, Matt799, I'll add the details to that arena. The person that suggested it didn't give me any info. Thanks!

[MrCanada]

thanks for these updates. I could help you with some local stuff (Ontario) if you really need some help.

[Consrvtve]

Also, in Wheeling West Virginia there is the WesBanco Arena (formerly the Wheeling Civic Center). I checked their website and they can hold up to 7800 max according to their seating charts.

[Payne]

Mr. Canada, seeing as I am too from Ontario, I did a bunch of Toronto ones on the first page.

[tnafan]

Version 2 is up! This has locations from all game regions, so you can just paste it over your old location.tew file. Enjoy!

[tnafan]

Is anyone having good results with these locations in the game? Are they accurate enough? There's been over 150 downloads between the two versions and I was just wondering how everyone thinks they work in the game.

Personally, I love having all of these in the current game I'm running.

[rayps23]

i have no problems with the data. and thanks again for your time and hard work.

[tnafan]

Version 3 released!

[paaron]

I don't know if it is just me or not but when I download this thing I still don't have any of the tiniest locations. Have I done something wrong?

[tnafan]

Are you using the most up to date version of the game? Adam added Tiniest as a location type in the last update to the demo.

[Game]

i like it, keep up the good work... I am using it now

[flaviooooo]

tnafan, are you going to add arenas from Europe in the future? Else I might be up for that task ;)

[paaron]

ah its all good I figured out what I was doing. I wasn't unzipping it into the right folder.

[noas5]

Thanks for your time and hard work.

[tnafan]

tnafan, are you going to add arenas from Europe in the future? Else I might be up for that task ;)

Not likely. Europe, Mexico, and Japan probably won't be done because I never play with those game areas on. If you do a European file, we could merge them and let people download just one file if you'd like.

BTW, worldstadiums.com is a great resource to find the capacities of arenas.

Thanks to everyone for the positive comments!

OK, I'll get to it. A merged database would probably be the best solution ;)

[tnafan]

flaviooooo's UK and European mod has been added to the downloadable file. Our file now has over 1300 locations!

[Mr T Jobs To Me]

Thanks Homies

[HaYt]

For everyone that has to have the up-to-date realistic stats and such...Viking Hall/ECW Arena/CZW Arena is now known officially as The New Alhambra.

[Justin Kage]

Score

Thanks

[Kraigy]

But...The Sir Matt Busby Sports Centre should be Sir Matt Busby Sports Complex. And it's in Bellshill, Scotland. Not Glasgow.

A good location in Glasgow would be the Braehead Arena. It has a capacity of 5,200 and WWE visited on the WMXX tour.

The SECC (Scottish Exhibition & Conference Centre) is the biggest Glasgow venue and resembles an armadillo. You could get at least 10,000 in there.

I won't add football stadiums, as it's unlikely they would ever be used. Same with music venues across the city.

[flaviooooo]

I'll add/edit these for the next version. Thanks for the feedback Kraigy!

Bellshill is virtually in Glasgow though, certainly close enough.

I could tell you why promoting in Glasgow Centre costs you £275 more than anywhere else before you even start, but it'd only bore you all. :)

[Kraigy]

Bellshill about 20-30 minutes train ride away to Glasgow. I lived there for 13 years. :p

Pretty much everything in a 50-mile radius of Glasgow is 'Glasgow' really. The Glaswegian culture almost covers the entire country because of two certain football teams from Glasgow. (¬_¬)

Random.

Thanks mate.

PWA used, from seeing it live, I'm guessing a 15x15 ring. So add or take away if you are basing it on other stuff.

Oh, both are pretty much just English people (if you dont count the odd person who speaks something else)

[tnafan]

MrCanada, I just added both of those. I'm uploading the new file now. I think I've added some Tiny US locations also.

[tnafan]

Actually, I'm getting an error when uploading the location file. Anyone want to host it?

[praize1979]

I'll hot it for you, for a while, TNA I not sure how much bandwidth I got on my site left but I should be good for 25gig's a month

Great! I think the file just got too big to upload on here (it's 41 KB).

Drop me a PM with your email address and I'll send you the zip file. Thanks!

[Consrvtve]

Thanks alot for your work, all these individual mods are making the great even better.

[Rams]

I can host the file, which seems to be missing, if someone would just send it to me.

[tnafan]

It's missing because I removed it to add the new update, but it wouldn't let me upload it. Drop me a PM with your email address and I'll send you the file to host.

[TsuMirren]

Mate,

With regards to UK locations, you should go to www.bigtimewrestling.co.uk and add all the locations for there...I'd say they're all Tiny.

For Scotland, the SECC (10,000 or so), Braehead Arena (5,000) and The Royal Highland Centre (1,000) should also be in. There's a Hall in Dunfermline too, but the name escapes me...Loreburn I think...and it's 1,000 or so.

[Dave Foley]

Is anyone hosting the latest version of this file?

[Rams]

I offered to but he hasn't sent it to me yet.

I really want it too since the current location file has no "Very Big" venues and that's the perfect size for my fed.

[Outlaw77]

I can host it as well

[tnafan]

The file has now been sent to everyone who offered to host it. Thanks for the responses!

[Nobledictator1278]

Okay Im confused I see all these people hosting the file...but where do I go to get the file? I would love to get this venue file seems pretty awesome

[tnafan]

As soon as someone let's me know where it's hosted, I'll put a link here. The file just got too big to upload directly to this site.

[Outlaw77]

You can find the file here

[Genadi]

thanks Outlaw, I mean Kip! Seriously though cheers for putting this up

[TsuMirren]

North England Tiny venues

Vulcan Arena - Hull
Lightfoot Centre - Newcastle (actually holds 2,000)
Everton Park Sports Centre - Liverpool
The Lowry - Manchester
Rob Park Arena - Wigan
The Dome - Doncaster

[pete]

Are there any 'very big' venues in there? Can't see any on my update.

[Rams]

Does the file work for anyone else? He emailed it to me and when I download it I get a .dat file called download. I get the same when downloading from the mirror.

nvm I figured out the problem.

here is an additional link- Mirror (http://tew05.blogspot.com/2005/10/locations.html)

[pete]

Very Big venues?

[tnafan]

Very Big venues?

Yeah, there's a few of them. There's just not many arenas that fit into that capacity range.

Also, thanks to the people who uploaded the file. I appreciate it.

[LucianCarter]

Awesome work.

[TsuMirren]

Empress Ballroom in Blackpool is also tiny, I have others but don't have the list at hand.

[tnafan]

Anyone still using this? I wasn't sure with all the other mods that are coming out. Also, I'd like to know if my locations work well in the game. I haven't been able to play much lately so let me know.

[Midnightnick]

I'm still using this, I favor it more then the other Local mods. And I suggest editing the South East/Mid Atlantic/Mid South crowds to Huge for Traditional. They keep the Kayfabe alive down there.

I took the fan types size to mean that there is that amount of people there willing to go to your wrestling event. Basically, the only huge markets I was making were the major US cities. I live in Richmond, VA, which is a big city, but to say that there is a huge amount of people that would go to a traditional wrestling event isn't really accurate.

I guess I just don't know if the size of the fan type has anything to do with how many people are in an area. That's why you don't see any smaller US cities with any huge amount of fan types. Does anyone know how the game actually works in this regard?

[Scott_Free73]

Not to sound dumb, but where is the link for this, I can't seem to find it in the first message... am I missing somthing?

[Scott_Free73]

Never mind, I'm a moron... yeah, it's my new angle... "This worker plays the character of a noob, who misses obvious situations when placed right in front of his face." Low risk, but high risk of brain trauma. :-)
