Hi, I'm putting up this tutorial to share what I have discovered regarding how the game handles titantrons during entrances. This will enable users to troubleshoot and fix titantron issues they might encounter in the game. First it's important to note the assetconv_p30.pac file in the pac/audio folder handles titantron assignment in entrances. Unfortunately custom titantrons with ID's different from those of the default trons are not loading in entrances. A few modders came up with a solution of modding the assetconv_p30.pac to include data for custom titantron ID's. This file is placed in the mods/titantronfix/pac/audio folder when the titantronfix is installed in CCT. The assetconv_p30.pac file in the mods sub folder supercedes the file in the pac/audio folder. I will be using this file in this tutorial.. Titantrons in the game are placed in the 2k19/movies/titantron folder. The trons used for each character's entrance are in the format ent_xxxx_0_0_Y.bk2. I will break this down here. Let's pick Triple H for instance . His character pac is 102. If you look in the titantron folder you will see these 3 titantron files ent_0102_0_0_0.bk2 (This is the long titantron loaded in the Raw Arena) ent_0102_0_0_1.bk2 (This is the long format titantron loaded in the smackdown and current PPV arena's) ent_0102_0_0_2.bk2 (This is the square format loaded in classic arenas with 4:3 format titantron screens). Most current gen superstars usually have all three titantrons. All retro superstars like The Rock, Steve Austin and Goldberg have only one titantron (The 4:3 format tron) A few superstars have just the smackdown/PPV and the classic trons. This is important to note as you might have discovered superstars without the other two modern titantrons still have the 4:3 format tron loading in all arena's Superstars without the Raw titantron have the smackdown/PPV tron loading in the Raw arena. So it's possible to have just one titantron loading in all arena's. This is where the assetconv_p30.pac file comes in. Open this file in a hex editor. We will look at a few examples to illustrate. Scroll down to offset row 1800. Here is a screenshot below This is a default listing for in game characters starting from The Rock. The Highlighted numbers 64,65,66 and 67 are Hex ID' for The Rock (100) Steve Austin (101), Triple H (102) and The Undertaker (103) . You will also notice I have highlighted a set of 3 bytes which contain the values 01 or 00. Lets look at the Rock/ This is actually a 4 byte array 00 00 00 00 but just 3 bytes are used for the trons. The first byte id for the Raw trons, The second byte for the Smackdown/PPV trons and the 3rd byte for the classic trons. If you look in the titantron folder, you will notice the dev's have placed just one titantron for The Rock and Steve Austin, both ending with a 2. The 3 bytes I highlighted for the The Rock and Steve Austin both have 00 00 01 The single 01 in the array is for the Classic Tron (ent_0100_0_0_2.bk2 and ent_0101_0_0_bk2) As the other values are 00, the game will assign this titantron for all entrances. You will also notice the trons are not stretched in the Raw Smackdown and PPV arenas. Lets look at a few things here. If the ID for the Rock's titantron was changed to ent_0100_0_0_1.bk2, It will be stretched in the smackdown/PPV arena and it wouldn't work in The Raw and Classic Arenas as the game will try to locate the tron with ID ent_0100_0_0_2.bk2. If the data bytes was changed from 00 00 01 to 00 01 00 , the game will try to locate the tron ending with 1 and assign it to all arena entrances. If there is none, no titantron will be loaded. This is the case if no other titantron is present. If the data bytes were changed to 01 00 00, the game will try to locate the tron ending with 0 and assign it to all arena entrances. The next example is Triple H (Hex ID 66) You will notice there the highlighted listing is 01 01 01. You will also notice there are 3 titantrons for his character, similar to all current superstars. The 01 01 01 here will enable the game assign the titantron ending with 0 to Raw, the titantron ending with 1 to Smackdown and the Titantron ending with 2 to classic arena's. If the Data bytes are 00 01 01 and the Raw titantron is removed, the game will assign the Smackdown titantron to the Raw arena. Let us look at the modded slots added to the game. I will use the ID for CM Punk to illustrate. If you have CM Punk installed in slot 468 and the titantron ID is 468 you will search for D4 01 (1D4 reversed =468 in hex.) Here is a screenshot below. You will notice the bytes here read 00 00 00 . This is the same with all custom titantron slots. With this, we will need to have all trons with all three ID' s for the game to load trons in all arenas. In this case, we need to have titantrons with ID's ent_0468_0_0_0.bk2 (Raw), ent_0468_0_0_1.bk2 (smackdown/PPV) and ent_0468_0_0_2.bk2(classic arenas) placed in the titantron folder for the game to load trons in all arenas. If there was just one tron ending in 0 ( raw), The bytes will have to be changed to 01 00 00. This will load the Raw tron in all arena's. There are times we can only find 4:3 trons for retro mods. In this case, let's say I had just a 4:3 titantron for CM punk. I will have to rename it as ent_0468_0_0_2.bk2 and change the data bytes to 00 00 01 as explained earlier. This will load the tron in all arena's. The titantron will not stretch in the RAW and Smackdown/PPV arenas. Hopefully readers can pick one or two things. Feel free to ask any questions.

Raw is War 1999 Fun fact: THIS^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is the whole reason I got into modding at all, I thought it would be cool to have a separate logo on the towers and stage piece

Thank you to @WhereTheFdidTheEgo for letting me use his WWF2K19 logo

Solid work man, keep it up 👍

It's extremely easy, just put all WrestleMINUS files in a folder somewhere, then when you first open it will ask you to locate your WWE2K19.exe file, after that it will ask you if you want to incorporate some other files that are found in X-packer, etc. you don't even need these for what you are trying to do, so you could just say no for now if you want. After that stuff is done it should look like THIS, then you just click the little + symbol to the lift of WWE 2K19, now you can navigate the folders/files of you install directory. Now just go to THIS FILE and then you have to click on THE SHOW TAB. Now in this very first row that is highlighted you just need to go over to the "Stage" column, double click on it, type the number 1, PRESS ENTER, and then click on Save Changes. Now go to your WWE 2K19/pac/root folder and backup or remove the .bak file that was created by WrestleMINUS. If you want to change the arena name, just double click on THIS BOX, type 5483, PRESS ENTER, and then save changes(you have to have the Super String installed). If you ever get an error after pressing save changes, it's because you forgot to reopen the file on the left after the first time you saved changes If it still doesn't work after doing this, see if there is another misc01_start.pac file in your WWE 2K19/mods folder somewhere. If there is one, you either need to edit it in the same exact way, or remove it.

Just bought 2K19 on sale from Steam. Tried to download from the adfly link in the first post but keep getting a white screen and no download. Can anyone possibly host this elsewhere for us to download?
