DLC Inc posted:

is this the actual framerate of the game or is this 20fps due to youtube/capture compression


hahaha have you ever even bothered to watch anything from newlegacyinc, the 2k games are dogshit that gently caress up constantly.
and yes, if only 2k did literally everything better it would get a "pass" but right now it's a yearly game that will never get better

Actual. The game relies on the slower framerate as that's how the moves are animated. You can set the game speed to 500% to get more frames, but it's wrestling on crack (way to fast to be playable)

The 2D game had more wacky stuff like drivable motorcycles and coffins that would appear at funeral shows. I had a tribute show that was an inferno match, and everything was covered in huge flames like the Sims 1 (including the coffin, with the supposed dead wrestler in?)

I think the best new of the game is the commentary has been scrapped and they've been forced to make fresh lines with Graves/cole (and Byron I think?). You can here some in the 2 entrance vids.

Like the fact that the Royal Rumble has been the most boring goddamn thing for 12 straight games now. They added all these animations were people can get clotheslined out of the ring or reversed and dumped that way and it only applies during a regular match. I would rather go back to wild rear end rumbles that end in 10 minutes as opposed to the meters and quick time event based pushing simulator that takes like 40 minutes to complete and is fun for none of that time.

Yep! They say they're working on the rumble this year, but I doubt it will be simple like the old days. I watched every NL rumble apart from the post HCTP ones to current (well, skipped through to see winners). They're just so dull and lumbering.

Surely with 8 men in the ring this year, they're gonna have to do something!

drat,

Random select is what i've wanted for 1 v 1 but it auto fills 8 characters, unless I'm doing something wrong. And it still doesn't re-populate when you press it again (for battle royals). Maybe the next patch will fix that....

Hey guys, long time no see. So I finally figured out how to get MDickie's games working correctly on Windows 10 after many years...and because I always get sucked in; I'm working on a re-tooled version of Wrestling Mpire HD [totally not to do with my favourite, current music genre]. No doubt we'll be seeing a series with a recurring character in the near future :)

Saw your teaser video for this and I'm anticipating it greatly. One question though, will the new HD mod work with both the Booking and Career versions or just the Career version?

Glad to hear it! The download will just be a zip archive of the game dir for Career mode, so for your booking install just drag over the respective files (Graphics, weapons, items, world folders) into your booking dir. Booking is basically the exact same game barring a different exe :)

For the microscopic MDickie fanbase, and for the even fewer who are interested in mods of Wrestling Mpire, Wreslting Mpire HD 2019 is coming along nicely. It's a Bladerunner-ish-come-synthwave-come-etc-etc style conversion, it's looking good :)

Super pumped about this. Been modding these games since '03 - founded the biggest site for mods, so i'm happy that someone finally cajolled mat into doing workshop. I spoke with him a few times and he was like ehhhhh, so bravo to the man who convinced him.

From what i've gathered, you have to fux with bepinex n poo poo, it's not like the old modding days of just switching files in your folders, but yeah...better than NO modding.
