WWE CAW Editor, Titantron, & Arena Import v2.3.1.0 UPDATED!

[JLawlor91]

You are obviously not resign/rehashing the files correctly or they would show up in the in-game list. Here's the easiest way to do it :

Start with a blank USB stick with nothing on it

1) Move SaveData.dat to USB stick.

2) Plug USB stick into PC and use USBXTAFGUI to extract SaveData.dat to your PC.

3) Run WWE Games CAW Editor and click StoreIDs

4) Click LoadIDs, browse to your SaveData.dat and click SaveIDs

5) Click Special Button and choose Save Resigner/Rebuilder

6) Select all your .enc files and then click Open

7) Wait for the program to finish

8) Move all the enc files into the 00000001 folder using USBXTAFGUI

9) Close the USB stick and safely eject it.

10) Insert USB stick in Xbox at Move all WWE13 Data back to Xbox HDD.

If that doesnt work then you are doing something wrong.

I must be doing something wrong :glare: I don't know what because I've followed the steps and I'm confused because I moved one of the titantrons from my Xbox back to laptop and when I opened it to see the ID, it had an identical one to the files I got the ID from

I renamed the file from 00.Encode.dat but this shouldn't matter because the files still have the extension and a slot number has still been saved and it appears in my WWE folder as each slot number. And I also made sure they were saved as WWE13 not WWE12.

Update: I've done your method as well as the one that BrienJ wrote where you use Concept instead at the final stage. I've also used different .enc files that I had converted and for your method moved savefile.dat and for his moved a superstar to get the IDS.

Why on earth wont mine work

ok so far everything is working amazing except one small detaill I injected a ryback caw ingame saved 2 of his 4 attires (dont know if this is the problem) i played a match using one of his already saved attires and everything went smooth until i tried to use his finisher, then the 2 wrestlers just froze and started to melt into eachother ;p i tried openening move set editor saving, even tried setting different finishers (non custom made finishers) Anybody who has an idea what i did wrong?

Did you injected the caw AND his custom Finishers?

Hey brienj just out of interest im wondering if you're thinking of ever putting in a storyline importer or a music import, don't even know if that's possible because it's a real pain placing music on your xbox to use as custom entrance theme and i wouldn't mind trying out some storylines people made (no access to xbox live ). So just wondering, not forcing you or anything

[koberulz]

If I inject, then load the game from a USB, save the attires, and move the game to my HDD, do I need to resave all the attires again or will it work right away?

Hey BreinJ, I am amazed by this program but I cannot use it as I own a PS3, I do have acess to an xbox 360 and after you release the wwe 12 to wwe 13 caw converter I might trade in my ps3 copy for an xbox copy.

I know you dont normally mess with PS3 however since you recently worked with kim666 to make a 360 to ps3 converter I was wondering if it is possible to do vice-versa meaning converting xbox 360 caws to the PS3? I know you could do it if you worked at it. There has got to be some way espically if you figure dout how to convert ps3 to 360 then I really think you could convert 360 to ps3. I will try to help any way I can.

Secondly I realize you have a life outisr of moddig and games. All of us have othe rimportant things in life besides this, well at least we all should lol. So I am patient and understand that you have more imporant things to do then to make progrmas for people. With that being said My second question is is there a timable release where you think you might be finished with the WWE 12 to WWE 13 Caw converter? Again I am sorry if this has been asked beofore, I am new here. Not trying to be annoying or anything, just wondering about when we can expect a release ya know haha.

It can't be done. Nobody has decrypted the save data for PS3, so it's never going to happen until that happens. And no, I have NO clue on how to decrypt PS3 save files, and to be honest, I have zero desire to ever learn or try it.

[JLawlor91]

BrienJ sorry to be a pain but has anyone else asked about similar problems to mine? I've followed your guide and redrooster's above yet my titantrons don't show up in game. The IDs on my Xbox currently are the same as the save file I moved and I have also rehashed/resigned them as well. I've even made a new titantron and used the steps with it and that won't even show up in game.

Should these just simply show up under custom movie as mine is grey although they're on my Xbox with the correct ID

[TheBirdSolution]

One thing I've gotta' ask Brien, there's one little gripe I have with the '13 editor. Custom PT Logos don't show up as Logo-1, Logo-2 etc like they did last year. It's a tiny thing, but it makes bypassing the blur slightly more confusing. Tiny thing, but any chance this can be fixed?

Oh, I didn't even notice, I could try and fix that, shouldn't be too hard.

[koberulz]

I'm still using the older version--prior to the arena fix--so I don't know if it's still an issue, but I'm getting the unhandled exception error in the minitron manager. Seems to always happen with the British Patriot minitron, and occurs other times at random.

After setting the British Patriot minitron, however, my save is now corrupted. Rehashing hasn't worked. Any way I can fix this?

EDIT: Okay, definitely still a problem in the new version. And I've tried removing the British Patriot minitron and it's still corrupted. No idea what's going on. I accidentally deleted the entire folder, and I've only been extracting the SaveData, so I restored a current SaveData and older CAWs, so that could be the issue...

The USB drive is running out of space for no reason, too. It used to have about 14GB free with 1GB for the game, and it's now 2GB for the game and just 6.4GB free. The free space is dropping, without the space used by the game really changing.

You're having issues with the way you are transferring your saves, it's not my program, so I don't know how to help you, I don't even use USB. As far as the exception for the minitron manager, that is just some stupid GDI+ error for the preview pictures of the minitrons and has zero bearing on that part of the program working. I've tried to fix that, but even trying to handle the error in my program still results in it not being handled. It's a Windows issue, and there must be something you and the few people with the problem, don't have installed on your system. Do you have Vista? Because that OS has so many bugs in it, it's not even funny, and it's damn near impossible for developers to get around the dumb bugs.

[Red Rooster]

Oh sure, blame it on Windows Vista. Next you'll be telling me Window ME is no good too.

[brienj]

Of course. :

But yeah, I know too many people that just refuse to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7. It's really sad, they don't know what they are missing. Bug free, same awesome stuff added, just doesn't have the stupid problems that Vista has.

And then there are those with the opposite problem, that think the newest is always the best, and are already on Windows 8, which is a piece of shit OS too.

Whats wrong with Window 8? Why would you not want a smartphone OS on your PC. How can people survive without pushing giant buttons on a touchscreen?

[koberulz]

I did get it working (I must have not resigned properly the first time or something), but this is a completely different error to even what I was getting when I had the wrong IDs. And all because some idiot put together a program where the 'inject' button and the 'delete' button are right next to one another and there's no deletion confirmation dialog.

[brienj]

Yeah, if you have a smartphone, then that is the OS to go with, there is ZERO reason to have it on a desktop computer though, other than to piss off people who develop programs like me, because they didn't give one shit about backwards compatibility in the OS, and don't even have lower than .NET 4.0 support right out of the box, and you have to go in and manually make it be enabled. I could go on all day about how stupid it is, but I'll stop there.

@BrienJ: What's WWE'12 CAW Converter to WWE'13 really do ? Does it convert the morphing and detailing on the face ?

@BrienJ: What's WWE'12 CAW Converter to WWE'13 really do ? Does it convert the morphing and detailing on the face ?

It would allow you to not have to redo all your morphing, adding attires, adding logos, etc.

Still it's last on my list of things to do. I'm sorry, I know it would be a tremendous help to CAW makers, but I am so busy working on these non-retail hacks, I don't have time to mess with it now. I can only handle one thing at a time any more.

[TheBirdSolution]

This is going to sound abit nooby, but the PS3/360 converter. I know the .cas files on the PS3 are locked inside the savedata.dat, but how do I get them out? Am I missing something?

I have NO idea. The only two saves I have, were given to me. You'd have to ask or look at the WLF site. There are a bunch of people doing hacks for PS3 there.

Well, first of all, if you are opening the WWE12 CAW Editor, you better get the correct and new version which is WWE Games CAW Editor. Secondly, if you made those renders to add to your WWE13 CAW, then you should probably read the readme file, the help file, or hell, even this thread, so you'll know that you wasted your time for nothing. Then lastly, if it won't open the CAS file, then you ran it through some other resigner that messed it up, so click on the Special button, then click on the Rebuilder/Resigner, open your CAS file, and have it correctly rebuilt and resigned, and then go to work.
