The commentary for King of Colesseum 2 is incredible, and I will absolutely be using it, if Carl creates a casual friendly mod tool to implement it, like all his others, as it's pretty technical atm.

The Colosseum games mirror actual Japanese commentary, as their excitement level increases as the match goes on. For example, there are 3 different audio files for each move varying in excitement. Combine that with the increasing excitement levels of the crowd, and it REALLY adds a lot to puroresu matches.

Destor 11-30-2017 12:25 AM

Idnlike to see the commentary mods as a point of curiosity but it would take a lot to execute well

Fignuts 11-30-2017 12:58 AM

They've already figured out how to attach move commentary to the moves being executed in game, as well as pre match ring announcements. Just a matter of plugging it all in and posting it as a download. Given how much time these guys already spend in the game's code, I don't doubt they'll do it.

Yes.

It's kind of like Samckdown vs Raw's old GM Mode, but with much more depth and options. The Japanese version of Fire Pro Wrestling 2 had it, and it was really good.

Returns also had a version of it, but it was very watered down, and didn't even allow you to use edits. However, the devs are very aware of the unsatisfaction with the returns version, so I'm expecting it to at least be as good as the GBA version.

Well, they kind of will have to let you use edits, Return has a bunch of built in wrestlers, World has like 20, so Edits would have to be done.

Fignuts 12-01-2017 09:31 PM

Oh definitely, but the returns version was subpar for a number of other reasons as well.

Fignuts 12-05-2017 06:11 PM

Next twitter stream on Dec 11. Stated they will be announcing BIG plans for the future of Fire Pro. Likely the official Management of Ring announcement, but could also be full version release date.

#BROKEN Hasney 12-06-2017 04:42 PM

I'm guessing full release date. Management of the Ring could be a 1.5 version and they'll want to get the PS4 version out sooner rather than later.

Also hoping for a Switch announcement

Fignuts 12-06-2017 05:09 PM

Well they said previously that Management of ring would be presented before the end of the year. That combined with the leaked screenshot is a pretty big indicator. I do believe we'll be getting a release date as well tho.

Fignuts 12-07-2017 11:36 PM

Custom trons in Carlzillas latest update.

Fignuts 12-11-2017 11:10 PM

I typed up a summary of the Twitch chat the best I could. If you'd prefer to watch the full hour livestream, the vod is up at https://www.twitch.tv/videos/208823505

- Dave & Director talk about the move poll. How there was one for US & one for Japan. The excuse for some of the moves not making the cut (BIG WIGGLE :angrymob: ) is that they were too much of a singular signature move where it moved into legally murky water they've been trying to avoid. Testicular Claw avoided that trouble since it's become kind of a staple of various wrestlers. On the Japanese side, Airplane Spin was top of the list. Director was on the fence about putting in something so classic over something new & fresh but he went with the old school appeal on the Japanese side. Although the first batch of moves came from that poll, those aren't the only moves they'll be adding. So there's more to look forward to in the future.

- Dave notices a comment in chat about how it would be nice if there was more boxing moves. Director also agrees. So we'll see where that goes. Director mentions that they added back S-1 mode so it'd make sense to add more strike moves for that.

- Director is getting nervous about the upcoming announcement.

- Three big announcements today

1) Charity DLC for Yoshihiro Takayama on 12/18. It'll cost $3 and you get an official licensed Takayama character and a new move, Spirit Rush Punch. All proceeds, outside of Steam's cut, will go to Takayama's charity foundation to help with the cost of his rehabilitation. He was recently injured in the ring and paralyzed from the neck down.

This deal was worked out by the president of Spike who's been around since the early days of Fire Pro and wanted to help out in some way.

Regarding the new move Dave mentioned if you look up his match with Don Frye, you'll have a good idea about what you're getting.

Somebody in chat asks a question...yes, you'll be able to use this DLC in online matches.

2) Director is really nervous about this next part. Dave & Director cheers and celebrate with a beer. About what?

Fire Pro is leaving Early Access 12/19. The game will be on sale from 12/19-1/5 for 33% off. After the game leaves Early Access, the price will rise to $29.99

(please let them elaborate and don't kill them yet) The past 5 months they've been in Early Access has felt alot longer than they were. The game is progressing nicely thanks to the feedback of the community. They feel fairly comfortable with releasing the game in its current state. So thank you. *Director nervously drinks his beer*

The reason why they're leaving Early Access is so they can turn their attention towards the PS4 version. The details of the PS4 version they can't quite release yet but they'll be making another announcement in early January.

Dave's assistant is monitoring chat and they're relieved to find out that chat isn't tearing them apart like Director thought they would. So thanks again *more beer drinking* He was under the impression that everybody was going to dogpile him. If it was up to him, he would have stayed in Early Access for as long as possible but they knew this day would come where they'd have to move onto the next stage of development.

They want to emphasize that just because they're leaving Early Access doesn't mean that more content and game tweaking isn't on the way.

3) Fire Promoter (aka Managment Mode) is coming in January as the first piece of paid DLC. Japanese fans are already aware of what management mode is. Fire Promoter is going to be based off of the one that was found in Final Fire Pro for the GBA. But that doesn't mean much to the western audience so they're going to go into details.

In a nut shell, it's a mode where you get to manage your own wrestling promotion. You want to raise talent and book matches to increase the size and scope of your promotion. There's all different kinds of ways how you can grow your promotion. Putting on good matches is the bedrock but there's all sorts of other little stuff like signing broadcast contracts, finding new talent or maybe even stealing talent from other promotions. If you do steal talent, you have to be careful since you can build up animosity with another promotion. You can also partner up with other promotions and do cross-promotional matches and things like that.

To give you the scope of the mode...you need to have 14 other promotions and each promotion has to have a minimum of 6 wrestlers signed. Which means you need a bare minimum of 100 wrestlers to begin the mode. Personal created wrestlers and Steam Workshop wrestlers work in this mode. Dave made a mistake. You also need free agents so you'll probably need a minimum of 150 wrestlers. So if you're the person who'd be interested in management mode, you'll probably have far more than 150 wrestlers. Director clarifies. This is more like creating your own wrestling alternate reality.

Regarding paid DLC: It's out of the team's hands.

Director was so worried about the response that he couldn't sleep the night before but the chat isn't rioting which is a nice surprise. The community seems supportive.

The whole point of World was to bring the Fire Pro franchise back to life. They've been trying their best to not nickle-and-dime you to death but these are business matters and thank you for understanding their situation.

The good thing about paid DLC is that they'll make a profit and they'll potentially be able to put that profit back into the game so they can keep developing. The team would like to work on the game as long as possible and, if the DLC does well, that could open new doors in the future.

There's no fracturing of DLC. If you buy the mode, you get the mode. No loot boxes or anything of that nature.

There will be a season pack that contains Fire Promoter and one other unannounced major piece of DLC for a discounted price. [my note: it sounds like these two are the only major pieces of DLC they have planned at the moment and this is a test run to see if it's a feasible business model for Fire Pro]

More details will be released in the next live stream in early January.

On the Japanese side, all this stuff like PC gaming and season packs is a complete unknown. So it's an experiment to see what they can do with this business model and where it can go.

They almost forgot to mention. 4 player online multiplayer will be launching with the game when it leaves Early Access. So that's something to look forward to.

Fignuts 12-19-2017 07:56 AM

New move that comes with the Takayama Charity DLC is amazing. Ripped straight from the Don Frye fight.

Ver. 1.0 patch notes

Quote:

Today's patch notes are as follows:
OFFLINE
Fixed bug in Leagues/Tournaments where victory/loss would sometimes not register properly.
Fixed bug in Leagues where result screen would show the winning wrestler with the name “No Entry” and fail to display their graphic.
Fixed bug in League Mode where the correct wrestlers would sometimes not proceed to the finals.
Fixed bug in League Mode where, in a title match, the challenger would sometimes not receive the belt if they won.
Fixed bug in League Mode where sometimes the winner of a finals match would not be recorded, forcing you to replay the match.
Fixed bug in League Mode where sometimes a finals block would repeat until a wrestler beat everyone else consecutively.
League matches now proceed in a more even distribution between wrestlers. (Previously, there was a tendency for a single wrestler to perform all their matches before other wrestlers.)
EDIT MODE
Added “Overwrite” option to Edit Wrestler load menu.
Face part scale arrows now scale at 1% per click. (Previously 2%.)
Added 2 more Priority Attack slots to CPU logic. (12 total)
Fixed bug preventing certain renamed moves from displaying properly.
ONLINE
Added support for four player matches.
MATCHES
Match-specific Match Evaluation criteria implemented for Deathmatches, SWA Rules Match and S-1 Rules Match.
PARTS
The following edit parts were added:
FACE
Base Part 698 – Anime female (Normal)
Base Part 699 – Anime female (Normal) > Separated
Base Part 700 – Anime female (Cool)
Base Part 701 – Anime female (Cool) > Separated
Base Part 702 – Anime female (Adult)
Base Part 703 – Anime female (Adult) > Separated
Sub Part 699 (1) – Anime female (Normal) > Eyelashes/eyebrows/pupils
Sub Part 699 (2) – Anime female (Normal) > Eyeball and eye highlights
Sub Part 699 (3) – Anime female (Normal) > Lipstick
Sub Part 701 (1) – Anime female (Cool) > Eyelashes/eyebrows/pupils
Sub Part 701 (2) – Anime female (Cool) > Eyeball and eye highlights
Sub Part 701 (3) – Anime female (Cool) > Lipstick
Sub Part 703 (1) – Anime female (Adult) > Eyelashes/eyebrows/pupils
Sub Part 703 (2) – Anime female (Adult) > Eyeball and eye highlights
Sub Part 703 (3) – Anime female (Adult) > Lipstick
[MOVES]
The following moves were added:
Standing (BIG) > Fierce Low Kick
Counter > Toe Kick B
Jump From Post > Double Rotation Moonsault
Front Grapple (SML) > Toe Kick B
Front Grapple (MED) > Short Elbow B
Front Grapple (MED) > Jawbreaker B
Front Grapple (BIG) > Screw Neckbreaker Drop B
Back Grapple (BIG) > Turning Two-Step Knee Kick
Back Grapple (BIG) > Full Nelson
Opponent Down - Facing Up, Near Head > Running Middle Kick
Double Team - Corner Grapple > Double Impact
Voice now plays for Counter > Pop-up Jumping Bomb.
Changed category for Corner Grapple > Kinniku Buster to [Rear Blow to Head]
Turning Two Step Knee Kick is Seth Rollins/Kenny Omega's ripcord knee, so that's a welcome addition.

Fuck yeah, finally got a full nelson. Two of the big three old school moves that have been absent from firepro have been put in with this, and last updates airplane spin. Now we just need a hammerlock (preferably multiple variations) and we're all set.

Running middle kick is great to have, as now I can save the running head kick for the people that use it, like Shibata.

Double rotation moonsault is cool, but I dunno who uses it.

Saw the list of new parts and got super hype. Then I saw "anime". Ugh.

Fignuts 12-19-2017 08:15 AM

Was really hoping for an improved UI, particularly in edit mode. Overwrite helps but it's still a mess.

Destor 12-19-2017 09:08 AM

Right. So much could come out of this. New edit parts representing official attires, tournaments with actual logos, new belt designs (something FPWW desperately needs) new moves, the modding possibilities for story mode.

And of course the sales boost. There hasn't been a NJPW game on console in over a decade. Wrestling fans in Japan are going to be all over this.

NOAH are owned by NJPW, so that should be fine. But man, if they could get deals with ROH and DDT as well... Jeezus.

I bet the UK indies would be down too.

Fignuts 01-06-2018 07:24 PM

I would almost call DDT a lock since they have been integral to promoting the game in japan, and there have been fire pro related events in japan for years.

Fignuts 01-06-2018 07:28 PM

Also, I don't think njpw ever actually owned noah, but regardless, the relationship was dissolved over a year ago. That was the main reason for njpw pulling all its wrestlers incuding suzuki gun.

Fignuts 02-07-2018 06:13 PM

Fire Promoter has been delayed in order to make improvements. Originally edits were going to be locked after the mode starts and couldnt be edited, like the gba version. They are making it so you can change them now.

Dunno how long its been since you checked out mods, but the biggest since the camera mod is the match booking mod. Allows you to choose who wins in simmed matches. You can choose win by any method, sigs/finishers, or specifically one move that will end the match. Can also book count outs and broad ways.

Helmsphere 02-07-2018 06:32 PM

I might have to get into that.

I could never quite figure out how to get the Trons to work.

Wait so this means you can pick Curt Hawkins to go over Roman Reigns or something and then watch the CPU characters actually make it happen? That's boss.

Handful of modders have gotten together and started making new moves for the game. released the first pack yesterday which contains13 moves

Fignuts 03-11-2018 01:35 AM

Just checked out the move pack. Here's what we got so far.

Double Underhook Piledriver - Front Grapple - Piledriver

Repeating Elbows to the Arm - Front Grapple - Elbow

Chop Punch Combo - Corner Grapple - Punch

Grounded Hammerlock - Face Down Near Head - Punch

Kudo Driver - Front Grapple - Piledriver

Front Necklock - Face Down Near Head - Necklock

Hammerlock - Back Grapple - Armlock

Black Mass - Front Grapple - Kick

Brainbuster to Knee - Front Grapple - Suplex

Inverted Go 2 Sleep - Back Grapple - Kick

Turning Cutter - Back Grapple - Cutter

Pumphandle Neckbreaker - Back Grapple - Cutter

Benadryller - Front Grapple - Kick

They use existing frames of animation, but these guys put a lot of work into these and they look fantastic. Black Mass looks especially brutal, as it uses the selling animation of the straight punch.

Carl just dropped another bomb, saying the next pack should drop tomorrow.

If you don't have it, its worth picking up. Only 3 bucks and it goes to good cause and gives you the awesome spirit punch rush move.

Move pack mod now up to 62.

Thats 2 more than spike has added in updates. It has been just under a week.

couple of the new moves are school boy superkick (gargano) bitter end (pete dunne)
Dab taunt (tjp)

I'll post a video when it gets made.

Not yet, but one of the modders seems interested in doing it.

Halfway through march, and still no updates on Fire Promoter. Getting worried that they bit off a little more than they could chew and its getting delayed again. Fire Promoter + NJPW + PS4 port + the usual bug fixes and updates is a lot ofwork for a small team.

8th Move Pack Mod is out today, but it looks like it will be the last one for a while.

Quote:

I was originally planning to do this with the release of Pack 8, but I feel like that would diminish some of the enjoyment of it, and the team worked hard on it, so I'm going to post this a few hours before so it has time to process and then we can all enjoy Pack 8 properly.

I've been asked by Spike to discontinue move pack releases until they are finished with their own move updates. They also work hard on creating moves, with less people and a larger amount of scrutiny, and Director Matsumoto really likes showing them off, and so we're stealing a bit of their thunder so to speak. Move Pack 8 will be the final move pack release and will contain close to 50 new moves (it could be over 50, some creators haven't sent all their moves to me yet...), and then we'll be calling it quits. We'll still be making moves, so you may see something on a move team member's stream that isn't in the game, and we WILL get you those moves...it just won't be for a while.

If you enjoyed the work of the team, and see them around, tell them thanks (I'm using their discord or commonly known names here...forum names may vary):

TheAceThatRunsThePlace
DakotaK
Dawnbreaker/ControlFrenzy/HeroicEMU
Maikeru
Ninjabrute
Professor Voodoo
Rey
Rumbata
Soak
View619
Will/AWildWillAppears/Will Craddok
Black Omen
Phil Parent
Phoenix Nitro
TigerSword
Zin5ki
Carlzilla

In the interest of sanity, we'd appreciate it if you didn't keep requesting moves in the Move Suggestion thread, because by the time we're able to release again, there could be hundreds upon hundreds of requests...and going through that would be a nightmare.

It's a double edged sword when I say I hope we'll be able to start making moves again soon, because that means that Spike will have stopped updating the game, so while I hope that's true on some levels, I also hope that Spike works on the game for a while as well.

Thanks again everyone, it's been a fun ride!
My hope is that their own lack of updates is precisely why Spike allowed it to go on as long as it did, and putting the kibosh on it now is a sign they're getting ready to drop the UI update with their own new moves included.

Either way, the new pack is truly epic. Lots of great stuff in there.

Fignuts 04-02-2018 01:10 AM

Eh, not too broken up about it. Devs aren't going to be able to support the game forever so we'll get more eventually. In the mean time, more moves from spike means more animations to use in mod moves in the future, making them better in the long run.

NICE

I see some new attire parts in there as well.

Fignuts 05-11-2018 01:41 AM

Handful of new moves and parts revealed in a stream from the director. Makabe, Naito, and Tanahashi join Omega and Ibushi in getting new parts for their attires.

New King Kong Knee Drop for Makabe.
Slap combo for Tanahashi
Back to the Future for KUSHIDA- The small package driver that Seth Rollins sometimes uses.

Some new info on the game from BOTSJ

-They want to get a "gauntlet match" in, which NJPW often held in the 80's
-The PS4 version will release with the Heavyweight Story mode and NJPW content
-Fire Promoter will be DLC and will arrive after the PS4 release
-There will be an additional story mode for the Jr. Heavyweight division released as DLC
-One more piece of DLC planned that they aren't revealing yet.
-You can use all the NJPW voice clips on any edit
-You will be able to use 5 different voice clips for an edit as opposed to the 2 we have now.
-Director teased more layers for appearances.

They also displayed a few high res images of Omega, Tanahashi, and Okada, showing off new edit parts and faces

Sooooooo many new edit parts on the way. Gonna have to back and re edit hundreds of edits now.

Fignuts 05-19-2018 02:19 AM

Also, I probably won't buy this for myself when this comes to PS4, but will buy it for a friend to support the Devs.

I just can't go back to playing the vanilla game after using mods. Maybe if we were talking some of the earlier mods. But the stuff they've been producing the last 4 or 5 months has been FUCKING INSANE. Stuff people only dreamed about in Fire Pro, and some stuff they didn't because they never would have imagined it possible.

And so here we are, with the latest innovation

Unfortunate that the ROH guys aren't in, but they're easy enough to make in the game.

Tiger Mask and Liger aren't in due to licensing issues as usual

Biggest omissions are Will Osprey and Jay White. Maybe they have some sort of merchandising deal with one of the European promotions that prevents they're likenesses from being used? I have no idea.

Roppongi 3k probably being saved for the Junior Heavyweight DLC. Hopefully they can get the rest of them in future DLC.

Could be a misunderstanding in the translation, so I'm not getting my hopes completely up, but it sounds like they are making new attire edit parts for every single wrestler in the DLC.

That.....would add a shit ton of new parts.

Emperor Smeat 05-21-2018 06:04 PM

Really hope they bring the mini-figurines from the Japanese Premium Edition version over to the US. Loved buying MUSCLE wrestlers when I was a kid.

I'm having so much fun with the Royal Rumble mod. Just did a 50 man rumble with stars from NJPW and NOAH. My boy SHO took the win.

At one point Cody Hall got thrown into the corner. Taka then gets thrown into the same corner. Marufuji then goes to the corner and hits a Shiranai (sliced bread #2) on Taka off of Cody Hall who is still slumped in the corner. It looked so cool.

Had another great moment in a Rumble with WWE guys. Styles, Orton and Braun ended up being the final 3. Now they have two versions of the styles clash in the game. One that is just the move, and another specifically for styles that has his hands out pose after putting the opponents head between his legs. So Styles starts to hit the clash on braun, but as he does the pose, Orton hits an RKO from OUTTA NOWHERE! IT WAS SO FUCKING COOL!

Also, when the mod launched, you could only have as large of a number as your system can handle. I don't know the technical details of why, but if you had too many the game would crash.

Not any more. Latest update fixes it so you could have as many participants as you want, regardless of what you're playing on. You could have a 1,000 man rumble if you want.

Fignuts 05-28-2018 08:05 AM

Yep.

Amazing detail

Helmsphere 06-14-2018 06:14 PM

Finally loaded this up again, bought the DLC, what do I need for the moves?

Helmsphere 06-16-2018 09:25 PM

I can't get any mods to work now Figs, please help me Tony Bromo

Fignuts 06-16-2018 09:34 PM

Is the game updated to the latest version and did you download the latest version of Carl's mod suite?

Helmsphere 06-16-2018 09:35 PM

I did. I feel like I should just delete everything and start over. Also have no idea where to put the move folder.

Fignuts 06-16-2018 09:44 PM

I just extracted the file to my main fire pro world directory and everything went where it was supposed to go, just like Carl's mod suite updates. Then patch it in with the patcher.

Don't really know how to help you beyond that. I'm not exactly an expert on this stuff.

Fignuts 06-30-2018 06:19 PM

Someone on twitter got screen grabs of the entire roster from the select screen. It looks like almost everyone in the game has new parts to accurately recreate their attires. So awesome. Lots of new moves as well.

Helmsphere 06-30-2018 07:54 PM

Does PC get those parts, or will that be like a Add-On DLC or something that they miss out on?

Fignuts 07-01-2018 01:49 AM

The NJPW content will be paid DLC for PC. No price yet but they've stated before that they would try to keep the price as low as possible.

Most people have been thinking 15-20. Given the amount of content we've seen, I wouldn't be upset if it was a little more. We're getting a fuckton of new edit parts and moves here.

Fignuts 07-03-2018 03:15 PM

50 new moves in NJPW DLC

Afterwards they will continue to release free move packs in between the DLC

I'm hyped for this

Emperor Smeat 07-17-2018 05:53 PM

Some new details were recently announced for the game.

Quote:

Coming in Fall of this year, "Fire Promoter" will add a whole new management sim-style side mode to FPW. Fire Promoter will allow players to create their own wrestling promotion, hire and train wrestlers, book shows and tournaments, collaborate with other promotions, even work on merchandise sales, (just don't forget to stamp out any notions of a union.). The dedicated Fire Pro crowd have been using the series to run fantasy leagues for decades, so this mode will be a more than welcome addition.

Also coming this Fall is a new story mode chapter based on New Japan Pro Wrestling's Junior Heavyweight division. Players will enjoy a fictionalised account of the high-flying Junior's past year, featuring stars such as Jushin Thunder Liger, Tiger Mask IV, Jado (Fuck You We Are Jado and Gedo), Rocky Romero and the pride of Britain; Will Ospreay.

Spike also announced that there is an entirely new story mode also to be added to the game down the line, but no date or details have been confirmed for this as of yet, so that particular addition is probably on the books for 2019.

Fignuts 07-17-2018 07:36 PM

Hoping that the fourth dlc is roh, cmll or a combination of both. Dragon Lee being in the Jr dlc gives me hope for the latter, at least.

Been going back and forth on whether I want to get the ps4 version. On one hand, I want to support the devs, and I have 28-31 off so I'll be able to create and upload a bunch of wwe edits in that time.

On the other hand my hard drive fried so I'm buying a new laptop in couple weeks and will have to remake all my rosters on PC, so I kind of don't want the extra work on ps4.

If I do get the ps4 version and go on an edit making marathon, I'll probably stream it.

Also the director recently tweeted that after listening to feedback from early access they are including an unlock code for all the moves hidden behind mission mode, so I d be able to get started right away.

Evil Vito 07-17-2018 09:25 PM

Beretta, YOH, SHO, and Yujiro are in the junior DLC as well. That'll get just about everyone in there except for the ROH guys.

Fignuts 07-17-2018 11:11 PM

Yeah, the full list isn't out yet. With Yujiro being confirmed, that could mean other heavyweights that aren't included in the initial release, like Henare, Jay White, and Finlay.

Fignuts 08-08-2018 03:30 AM

Yoooooooooooo

Check out the amazing job this dude is doing on modded edit parts. E erything is in the first post of the thread.

http://www.criticalclub.com/thread/2...-jps-portfolio

I'm getting the ps4 version for now, but once I get a new PC I'll be back on there, probably for good. This shit is unreal.

Evil Vito 08-12-2018 12:43 AM

Still undecided on if I'm going with PC or PS4. But with the NJPW DLC coming out, I kinda wanna do a clean start for my game since I have sooooooo many edits there are better versions of than when I initially downloaded. Is there any easy way to just delete everyone in one go or do you have to actually do it one by one?

Fignuts 08-12-2018 12:48 PM

Not in game, but I believe there is a mass deletion mod.

At this point, if you have a choice, you should go PC. There are so many awesome mods that the PS4 version looks gimped in comparison.

Evil Vito 08-12-2018 04:03 PM

Yeah I was kinda leaning towards PC since I need to get a new one soon anyway. Mine is about 6 years old and I've been having issues. It runs Fire Pro perfectly fine though, so as long as I back my shit up I can transfer it all to the new PC if/when I get it.

Fignuts 08-15-2018 05:05 AM

Tested out some new mods, including Trons and custom edit parts and ended up with a pretty nice match, so figured I'd post the recording.

PC version currently on sale for 20% off till August 20th.

https://store.steampowered.com/sale/spike-chunsoft/

Evil Vito 08-20-2018 12:05 AM

Decided I'm definitely going to carry on with PC mostly due to the insane amount of mods available, but I'll definitely be supporting further by getting the official New Japan DLC and the other packs.

Fignuts 08-20-2018 03:36 AM

Just a heads up if you are going to delve into mods:

Quote:

Because recent additions to the mod suite save directly into your save data, and I'm unsure of the amount of free time I'll have to update the mod suite after the 20th of this month, I want to make everyone aware of the possibility that you will be unable to play the game at all after the update until I've found the free time to update.

This really only applies to custom parts and custom moves, but if you use them on any of your edits, there's a chance that your game will not run after the update as the information for those items is stored in your save data regardless of whether or not you have mods patched in. This means that unlike previous updates, where you could just play the vanilla game while you waited for me to update, that may not be an option for some of you this time around.

The only work around would be to remove all custom parts from all your edits (you don't have to delete the .tex files or anything, just remove the parts in edit mode) and all MovePack/Custom Moves from your edits. You can use the option on the Testing Options tab of More Match Options to find edits that contain custom moves or edit parts.

The Mod Suite could take it's usual 12-24 hours to update or it could take weeks (depending on the amount of changes they make to the underlying code), so if you don't want to potentially be locked out of the game for weeks, I recommend heeding my advice and temporarily moving away from custom parts and moves. You've got two weeks to make the necessary changes...after that, I won't entertain any "My game is broken" posts or questions...because lets face it, you're a cunt who didn't read this and you deserve all the broken you're getting.
If you would rather play the game with mods than with the NJPW DLC until the suite is updated, you could set steam to offline mode. I would also turn off automatic updates, and steam cloud saves.

Evil Vito 08-20-2018 09:37 AM

Shittttttttttttttttttt

Really can't be arsed to look through which of my edits have custom parts/moves so I might just nuke my whole roster and stick with the NJPW DLC exclusively until the mod suite is updated.

Not a bad time to do it anyway, most of my edits (current WWE, WCW 1998) came in packs I can re-download with minimal effort. Plus the roster organization tool is an amazing timesaver.
