Hi, it's possible to add cutscenes , but you can only view them in Create Video . However The game will not use them in Universe Mode. If you want a ported cutscene listed in Create Video mods. you have to add a listing it to the cae_item.pac file. Be careful when editing this file. I will suggest you open the cae_item.pac in pac editor, extract the 0027.dat file inside the 26XXXXXXXXpac file, then open the 0027.dat file in Wrestleminus. The best section to add any ring cutscene is the cutscene - Universe mode - victory section, right after victory Cutscene 87 , which is the last one. This screenshot shows the cutscene 87 which has ID 5824. You can use the ADD button to insert new lines after that. In the second screenshot, I added the ID's 5901,5902,5903 AND 5904. lets assume these are the ID's of the cutscene pac files I am adding. They will be listed as CUTSCENE 88, CUTSCENE 89, CUTSCENE 90 and CUTSCENE 91. then you save and inject the file back into the 0027.dat in cae_item.pac file using pac editor.

Memo: From the Office of the President (of WCW) Sorry for all the wordy posts recently. Smacktalks has been very therapeutic for me as I work out my personal issues with the 2K series . I think I’ve got a decent game plan now so let me make like a DX theme and break it down… 1) 2K20 is presently broken. I mean...like..I choose a menu option and the game crashes broken. Until the developers do some serious patch work, the game isn’t playable - let alone moddable. I got out my frustrations in this thread yesterday: So I’m at peace with it now but I also don’t plan to invest much time into it unless it gets waybetter. Still, I paid for the full game with DLC and I’m not returning it. I’m hopeful that some of the amazing people that are good with tools and file types can figure out how to access the content, and that eventually things improve. At the very least, I’m eyeing a few characters for back-porting, and that Southpaw DLC arena looks like a sweet base for a Spring Break Nitro … maybe a little too sweet . 2) I like the momentum behind the ‘what can we do with another year’ 2K19 movement. Since several modders have said they’re cool with sticking with 2K19 for a while - I think it presents a great opportunity to push the boundaries of what we can do. I can’t overstate how helpful some of the recent improvements to the modding tools have been for me this year. Like @pozzum's 00CA and 00CE editors, for example. If we keep poking around and experimenting who knows what else we can do. I’ll bet it’s possible to do more with custom entrances and animations at least. Personally, I’d love to see if anyone can pick apart the game files related to things like cutscenes, loading videos, promo engine, towers, etc. If 2K doesn’t want to update Universe mode or add back Create-a-Story, maybe we can do it ourselves? 3) I still have big dreams for WCW mods. If 2K20 had been a good game, I had two big mod ideas I was excited about: I. Replace Roman Reigns’ 2K tower with Ric Flair’s Space Mountain challenge (16 classic matchups with promos interspersed). II. Replace the Bump in the Night DLC with some sort of Dungeon of Doom vs Sting/Hogan/Savage storyline. I can’t make those happen in 2K19 because it relies on game mechanics and strategic game-triggered videos. But as I mentioned above, maybe we can figure out ways to do different but equally cool things with this engine. _________________________________________________________________________________ So … for now I have some short-term plans for the game. First is to port the rest of my 2K16/17 stuff to 2K19. I’ll release the WWF ones as I finish them (see first post for Rhythm ‘n Blues Greg Valentine to start). The WCW ones are gonna get stockpiled for a future big drop release. Next will be to take a fresh look at the game as if it was just released, and see if I can figure out anything new. After that, I’ll work on finishing up a few attires I have in-progress (like part 2 of the Roddy Piper collection). Then I’ll re-assess, and potentially start putting together something much bigger. ‘To be named much bigger thing’ would be in the kinda-distant-future and involve collecting and organizing as many mods and assets as possible, so if anyone is interested in collaborating, that would be amazing (feel free to PM me whenever). Woooooooooooooooooo!
