I think, Christmas would be a good "reason" for a first version.. let yourself be surprised ;).

*Replies, critiques, and bug reports are welcome, but please try not to quote entire posts, just simply write in the "Reply to this topic" section at the bottom of the page, it just makes it more convenient for people who get here late and want to go back and catch up on everything without having to see duplicates of my posts, thank you. ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR FILES(ALL OF THEM, ALWAYS)! "Get The F Back In 2K19!" What does this mod do and what should I know before installing it?: This mod will replace every WWE arena in the game(and the two generic Japanese arenas) with WWF/WWE arenas from 1998-2003, as well as the match up screens, nameplates, locators, Show Videos, Show Themes, Universe logos, etc. No need to create a show(unless you want to) you can use these in regular exhibition mode. There is no way to quickly install 1 arena at a time or switch which slot it is installed in(refer to the arena modding wiki if you wish to try it for your own personal use), and there is no way to keep the modern arenas as well as the modded ones! This mod is NOT compatible with ANY of the other arena mods you might find, including my Golden Era mod. If you try to use two arena mods at once you will completely break one or both of the mods(It is possible to 'merge' them, but again you would have to read up on the arena modding wiki, it's a really tedious process). I do NOT recommend playing online while using this mod(or any for that matter) not worth risking a ban. I do NOT recommend trying to upload any modded content to Community Creations, again it's just not worth risking a ban! You should be fine downloading things from Community Creations while you have this mod installed though. List of known 'bugs': There are some lighting issues in the ported 2k15 arenas(the stage pieces don't reflect light as well as they should) Also the Bad Blood '03 stage is way too dark. Starrcade '83 doesn't appear in the Show menus(this seems to be a Yukes/2K issue) While in the Create a Show menu(most notably when selecting a theme song for a show), some of the logos will appear unchanged, they are all modded into the game though(check arena images page 2), just preview them to see which is which. Installation Instructions: 1. Download the .rar file and extract it with WinRAR or 7-Zip 2. drag and drop the WWE 2K19 folder in your installation directory so that it merges with your WWE 2K19 folder, click yes when your PC asks to replace the files(If your PC doesn't ask to replace any files, you dragged it to the wrong spot). 3. Install and Open Custom Character Tools 2019 4. In the "Chunk Tools" tab at the top, clear your chunk0.arc file, and then rebuild your chunk0.def file. 5. Enjoy. *If you have a bunch of weird issues like barricades that are crooked, or walking through ramps, you likely have another misc01_start.pac and/or misc04_arena.pac file somewhere in your WWE 2K19/mods folder, either edit it(the misc01) with HxD and copy/paste from "STG" to "COS" to match the same area in my modded misc01 file provided in the download. For the misc04, you could edit the values to match my modded one via WrestleMINUS. You might be able to just copy over the modded misc01/04 files into your mods folder, I honestly don't know which program creates those extra ones that some people seem to have, or why it would need those, I'm guessing it's likely Data Editor or something similar.* *Alternatively, you can just temporarily remove/delete the extra misc01_start.pac and/or misc04_arena.pac files from your /mods folder* DOWNLOAD LINK Credits: I want to thank @tekken57 @pozzum @Cave Waverider @TheVisitorX @squaredcirclefan @LordJustice17(and anyone else who helped in similar ways) for their amazing tools and/or mods and help with various things in the community, without all of those things none of this stuff would be possible. HUGE shoutout to @hovathagod32 for sharing his spreadsheet and overall vast knowledge of arena modding throughout the years(Click HERE for his main arena modding page) Another HUGE shoutout to @JManny for his various help with things and also for taking my first Golden Era mod and taking it to the next level! Be sure to check out 2K88 on his page HERE! Special thanks to @LordBarker for providing many of the ECW assets that were used and also for helping me out with many things, even way back when I first started modding and was a complete noob. Special thanks to @Mr.AG for fixing a ton of the titantrons, and also various .bk2 files as well as various help with a ton of other modding related things. Special thanks to @sXe_Coan_sXe for providing the HD video that I used to make the transitions, show videos, and some match ups screens. Special thanks to @trioxin1331 for providing the original logo I used for the "WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION" PPV apron! 65+ Updated movesets and entrances! *Many of these .moveset files include accurate custom entrances that were created by @Mr.AG, including: Chris Jericho '00 and '03, Edge '05, Batista '05, Rey Mysterio '03, Randy Orton '05, Undertaker '98, Jushin Thunder Liger, Hayabusa, Jinsei Shinzaki, and The Great Muta!* (Make sure you download his newest Hayabusa CAW btw, it's insane!) BEFORE YOU INSTALL THESE!!!!! Step 1: Go to THIS PAGE, download and install both the ported entrances pack and the ported moves pack, then rebuild your .def file using CCT. Step 2: I have included some custom .wem files(theme songs) and titantrons, I HIGHLY recommend installing each of these with CCT and Sound Editor, because most of the entrance timings are built around them. Step 3: Install the .moveset files(and .pofos if you want to) using CCT and have WAY more immersion in your game! *If you install the .pofo files, make sure you open up each one in Data Editor, click on "Announcer Settings" and make sure "Commentary Name" is set to whatever slot you are installing to, otherwise you have issues with announcer names and/or team settings* Step 4: Make sure you you open up each wrestler who uses an "Advanced Creation" entrance in Create an Entrance mode, click "Edit Menu" at the bottom of the screen, then click on "Title Motion", and then on "Champion Motion", and make sure that "Advanced Creation" is selected, then click save and have MAXIMUM immersion!!!! Step 5: DOWNLOAD LINK *Fixed Randy Orton '05 .moveset V2* /ch Mods The Rock '03 *works in Create a Superstar mode!* *You NEED to install this in the modern Rock slot(ch10002.pac) and also replace the tx10002.pac file in your /ch folder for all of the textures to show up properly, I tried to make an alternate version with a texture archive, but kept running into issues with it* HUGE thanks to @Mr.AG for the muscle sculpt and attire on this one!

Special thanks to @Red Rooster for his improved WWF intro video. Please don't re-upload any of the content from this mod unless you get permission.* This mod replaces/changes every arena in the game, most menu screens and many Create a Show/Universe logos. I didn't really want to release this mod in it's current state, but due to various issues I don't know how much time I will have for modding going forward, and I don't want to leave you guys with nothing for a long period of time. Here is the list of things you should be aware of before installing: The most notable issue remaining with this mod is the one discussed HERE. As far as I know, no fix for this has been found yet, though each match type is still 'playable' in the affected arenas, as you can still pull the needed weapons out from the apron and use them in the ring. (list of affected arenas) This mod is likely NOT compatible with either MyPlayer mode or 2K Showcase mode, but 2K Towers still work fine, they just play out in different arenas, the main goal of this mod was to make Universe mode better for WWF fans. The WWE stage logo in many arenas needs to be 3D modeled to allow for a WWF logo The spotlight on the stage piece in Survivor Series '96 and WrestleMania 13 is too bright There are some strange shadow glitches, mostly on the portion of ramp closest to the ring and on the aprons(as far as I know, this is a 2k/Yukes glitch that wasn't in previous games, only thing I've found that makes it less noticeable is to turn off shadows in the graphics options, this completely "fixes" it for the aprons at least) Do NOT use the side exit door near the parking lot area if you go backstage in arenas that have crowd fighting disabled! Elimination Chamber mode uses This Tuesday in Texas as it's arena now(you can put the original back by simply copying the original WWE 2K19/pac/arena/entrance file for it back in"arentrance00021.pac") If you want to use these arenas in regular exhibition mode, you will need to create a show for each one and give them whichever nameplates, etc that you want(the modded show/watermark logos are in "Arena Images" pages 1 and 2) Then just select them from the "Custom Arenas" page. Online still works, but I do NOT recommend it as your arena will be Raw is War(with crowd fighting enabled) and your opponent will still have Modern Raw. It might be considered "cheating" if you play online with modded arenas, I really don't know, so best not to risk it, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! If you want to try and improve something in this mod, want to mod Modern Raw back in for the sake of online, or are just interested in arena modding for whatever reason make sure you check out THIS PAGE and THIS PAGE. HUGE shoutout to everyone involved in putting together those pages(and another HUGE shoutout to @LordBarker as well, for being kind enough to help me out WAY back in the beginning when I didn't know very much at all, if it wasn't for him I would have likely given up a long time ago), everything I know about arena modding is thanks to all of them and this mod wouldn't exist if they didn't share their knowledge, so be sure to thank them if you enjoy this mod. So without further ado.. Installation Instructions: BACKUP YOUR FILES!(I know I already said that, but IDC do it again if you have to..) Drag the WWE 2K19 folder from the download link into your /Steam/steamapps/common folder and overwrite all files, then regenerate your chunk0.def using Custom Character Tools 2019 DOWNLOAD LINK *I do still hope to release a V2.0 at some point(if I find the time) which would include modded match up screens, nameplates, stadium banners, etc. If you run into any bugs I may have overlooked, know how to fix any that were mentioned, or have any reasonable suggestions, feel free to comment on this page or message me and I'll get back to you ASAP, I hope you all enjoy this mod.* WWF Championship Belts *If you open up any of my championship belt mods in Create a Championship mode and set up the Title Information like this:* It will then show up like this in the menu and in-game: WWF Heavyweight Championship '98: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces WWE Championship '98-'02) WWF Winged Eagle Championship: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces WWE Championship '88-'98) WWF Undisputed Championship: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces the WWE Undisputed Championship) WWF Smoking Skull Championship: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces the WWE Smoking Skull Championship) WWF Intercontinental Championship('87)*updated 12/31/2018*: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces WWE Intercontinental Championship '94) WWF Intercontinental Championship('90)*updated 1/1/2019*: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces WWE Intercontinental Championship '90) WWF Intercontinental Championship('98-'02): Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces WWE Intercontinental Championship '98-'11) WWF European Championship '98: Download Link Preview (drag/drop both .pac files into your WWE 2K19/pac/prop folder, replaces WWE European Championship) The Younger 'Taker Collection If you don't know how to install these, I highly recommend visiting the main tutorial page HERE Backlash '01: Download Link Preview Royal Rumble '01: Download Link Preview Raw '98: Download Link Preview Raw November '98: Download Link Preview Rock Bottom '98: Download Link Preview Over the Edge '98: Download Link Preview Summerslam '98: Download Link Preview Raw June '99: Download Link Preview Fully Loaded '99: Download Link Preview Other /ch Mods and Ports Razor Ramon(Modded head/face textures) Download Link Preview John Cena '03(Modded head/face textures/hair) Download Link Preview John Cena '03(alt entrance attire with ported 2k14 chain) Download Link Preview Stone Cold Steve Austin (17 ported 2k16 attires) Download Link(Preview pics inside of the folders)

Thanks for another batch of great caws...

Damn! Is so hard to look for an icon.... the heart, the YES!, Glorious!, Whoo and Too Sweet ALL Modders deserved it! By the way I finally got the game from Steam, downloading now. I will wait until the last patch to start adding MODS. Can't wait!

I don't think it will update, resort, male and female if you change it like that once the menu is open. If you pick the first player, then change their gender, the options for p2 will be that of the gender you have switched to. From there select your p2, then make p1's gender correct. Also sometimes the alt+enter out/in makes the keyboard select p2, if that happens hit Esc, then down, and the slot should be controlled with the controller.

looks great, congratulations on the release

Oh yes, you are completely right. It takes waaaay too long. Maybe we should apologize to you for that!? Maybe it would go a lot faster if more people would contribute to the work from others? As @Red Rooster said: People have a live, this is a hobby! I can understand that more and more people lose the enthusiasm for modding this game - When I read such posts, I lose them too.

heres a tutorial just uploaded to youtube a couple days ago from gamerz zone

I just want to echo what others have said and say thank you so much for putting in the time and effort to create these tools. It's a huge help for us and I think I can speak for everyone when I say we appreciate it a lot.

I will also do a his Beer Money

It is more or less the same as last year, but with another compression. Only the design has changed a bit, but nothing fancy, functionality is more or less the same. By the way... Thank you for all the kind words in this thread. It is nice to see that so many people are using my tools and that they like what I have done with them. That motivates me a lot!!

People have lives, this is a hobby, you should appreciate the fact that any of these tools exists in the first place, the modders here owe you nothing.

Pretty much done. Just have to remap the lights and find all my old menu stuff

Heath Slater referee Released: - Replaces The Raw Ref.

Sure. This look, right? I think what I'll do since they had a few attires is go with 4 per slot again, and that way people can choose what they want to go with from there.

I recently watched Starrcade '83 and saw some things that I could change to make it appear more realistic. Might give that a try. I haven't looked at 3C's much. It'd be great if I could just inject a 2580 in that slot. I don't really like doing all the testing much tbh because it really feels like luck most of the time when you're making one. It's literally the last thing I have to do for the mod to be finished so I'll take a look soon when I get a chance. SuperBrawl wouldn't work because of the tron issues I'm having. Still trying to figure that out. It's really important for the things that have more than 2 trons... WW3 97, Starrcade 97, SuperBrawl VII & VIII, Souled Out 97, The Great American Bash 97 & 98. I was thinking about releasing Nitro 99, but that's the same issue. Both Spring Stampedes might be finished. Not sure what I don't have from my 2K18 files yet. Here's pretty much what they looked like: Idk.. I might fix up Uncensored 97 if I can't get Starrcade working properly.

Anything wrong with my movesets? Are there any moves that I put wrong on em? 😅
