oh man, I'm playing with the WWE and recently became the parent company of ROH... I can imagine the outrage over the company dying as the main even of the first "new ROH" was a tag match between Heidenreich and Khali vs Umaga and Bob Sapp... at least Gabe had enough sense to book Joe vs Low Ki vs Daniels for the ROH title, but oh man... I wouldn't even put that on as a dark match.

what storylines are you guys running right now? I got a lot of alliances... as I have Batista/Booker T vs JBL/Orton, Triple H using Conway as a pawn and helping him get rid of RVD/Tajiri... MNM vs The KaneShow over who's the better tag champs... 6 way cruiser storyline involving Mexicools, Yang, Nunzio, and Kash... and John Cena mentoring Shelton Benjamin as Edge and Angle try to take out Cena. I really like over using alliances I guess, but I like getting everyone involved and giving main dudes their own little click/stooges. I'm also going to start building Austin/Hogan and Benoit/Eddie/Taker for Mania.

I know you can import new storylines and angles, but where from? I can only import from my other games, and they're all the same.

Right now in Flair's WCW I'm running:

An Unchained storyline with Booker and Jarrett teamed up to get the World Title off of Sean O'Haire, with Jarrett using the Filthy animals and Americas Most Wanted as extra backup, and O'Haire teaming with the Rock for help.

A Singles feud with Shawn Michaels and Rey Mysterio that gets A - A* ratings for every segment

Hardys vs E&C Tag Title Feud

I just started the "Fatal Overconfidence" story with "Sugar" Shane Helms as a cheating bastard defending his Cruiserweight Title against 8 different people before eventually losing to AJ

I'm not running an actual story for it, but I've got kind of a mini feud going between Shelton Benjamin, Raven and Sean Waltman for the US Title

Tajiri kept complaining about being the only japanese guy on the roster, so I brought in Jimmy Yang as his tag partner in "Team Fusion," and I'm building them, the Guns and the Briscoes up, along with AMW for the tag scene.

The game starts Punk off with the "perfectionist" gimmick (what kinda gimmick is that for punk anyways, especially when the Straight Edge gimmick is RIGHT THERE), so I changed him to a Straight Edge gimmick, but he has to be kept off camera for 56 fuckin days for the change to go through, which is retarded but it gives me time to go through my other feuds before I start the Punk mega-push, I guess.

Thats what I've got at the moment.

What exactly is an unchained storyline? I've never tried one.

It's a storyline with no storyline. You do whatever you want in it. Like how it is in EWR. Though I haven't really figured out yet how to end the storyline, which may be a problem down the line.

you have to end it whenever you think it can't get enough heat anymore, or else it winds up hurting the worker's overness... the only thing that truly sucks is the only way to end it is from the booking screen. All I run are unchained storylines... I like my freedom to book stupid crash tv.

You can just edit him in the during-game editor, shorten it up.

So, I found the perfect cure for my laziness. Just set myself up as the booker of NOTHING, and just watch, and see what happens in the game world.

Does Mutoh always take over AJPW like right the hell away?

Edit: oh yeah, might help if I clarified that I'm using the Flair WCW mod.

OK, I downloaded the Death of the Territories scenario, but I can't figure out how to get the data in the game. I tried Harley's steps, but the part where he says "Open the Data folder and see a folder named 'x'", there is no new folder. A little help?

I followed the steps..but when I tried to load up the database, it told me there's no locations for anything and no matches or gimmicks found.

I think I fucked something up..

I don't know what Broward did, but it sounds like Alf just missed the step about Create Database in TEW first to have the folder & default blank data there to replace.

I went thru step by step..

Took the file that got sent to my e-mail, and unzipped it. Created the whole "4promotions" folder within the database then copied the data from the unzipped folder into the newly created one. When I went to start up a new game, it told me there were no locations.. no matches.. no anything. Just a ton of errors that had to be fixed before I could start.

Did you put it in the WCW folder and not the default one?

You're best asking Chris or Zed because they had issues first time before they found a way around them.

In my Death of Territories scenario, I'm running a cool storyline with WWF, where we are doing the big Mania IV tourney to crown a new world champion, and Ric Flair invades to try to win the belt and resume his touring heel champ gimmick while the other WWFers are trying to prevent that.

In my DOTT scenario, I have my World Champion Bob Backlund slowly transitioning from an All American Face to a Paranoid Heel, terrified of losing his World Title and thinking everybody on the roster is out to injure him in matches if it means winning the World Title. He also thinks the referees are being paid off and hires a very young Kevin Nash to act as his bodyguard while refusing to face Andre the Giant by claiming the size differential is an unfair advantage.

I reinstalled TEW using the first Greydog link. Worked fine.

Zeddemore & myself have just written about 200 different programmes for Sean O'Haire and David Flair on MSN.
