Stories can be injected easily

[Aussie-Kat]

I'm sure you can source the DLC packs and inject them - ultimately would be better for you.

i thought that was only possible with a jtag console? (which i dont have ) And i tried putting a story in again and the same message came so you're probably right about dlc being the problem.

I've been working on a couple of stories myself. One has been a custom company slowly rising to rival WWE, using Original Caws (non current/former wrestlers) and also some Caws of current/past wrestlers. They also have tried to obtain members of WWE to help aid their growth... Been working on this since I got the game but i only do a few things at a time as I am trying to make it as realistic as possible and not using text speech, or TaLking LyKe DiS!!... also coming up with persona's for each CAW has been a tad difficult.

Another was Yoshi Tatsu's rise to Upper-Mid Card. It started at Elimination Chamber and is going to finish at Money In The Bank or Summerslam, so roughly a 5 - 6 month story line, (only done 2 months so far)

The other I've done was my own CAW winning Money In The Bank however used it to take a shot at the Tag Team Titles.. It's still in early development as it starts 3 weeks before MITB and I'm still trying to work out who to pair him up with and also how I'd have it work out for the cash in etc.

I haven't uploaded any of them though as most have just been for the enjoyment of myself and a few friends though I might look into getting the files and getting to a USB/Ex-HDD so I could possibly upload them here..

[gbx3]

sounds cool it would be awesome if you did and would it require the dlc to be able to play it?

[MarvstaX]

At the moment the WWE Rival Company story line does not have any DLC content used however it quite possibly will down the track.

Yoshi Tatsu is a DLC Character so does require it.

Caw MITB Tag Team Story does would not require DLC.

I've been cautious not to include DLC content with CAWs that I make myself for that very reason of if I did upload to CC more people could use it. Anyway I'll look into trying to get the files onto a USB once they are completed and see if I can't get something up..

Alternatively, if you have a Story you'd like to see I could try to come up with something?

[gbx3]

I would appreciate it and i don't have that great story telling skills except for the usual "use a caw, have it feud with some cool guys from the roster, have him make a tag team, have him win a championship" but that kind of the same as what i do in universe and do you have access to xbox live? If so could you, if it's not too much trouble, maybe download and upload a story here while I wait for yours to complete?

[MarvstaX]

See now, that alone can be a good story line. It just depends on how in depth the creator goes with the story telling and also who is involved.

An example... I made a story back on WWE '12 that my CAW, Kable Harrison, who had been in the WWE for 3 years (Made him in SvR '09). He hadn't been utilized much and demanded to be given a go... Long story short, he feuded with Ted DiBiase (who was the US Champ). During that feud he became allies with Edge and enemies with Batista (who helped Ted). After the feud ended, Kable was the US Champ then dropped the title to Alex Riley. Then formed a team with edge and ended up in a Tag Team Feud against Ted/Batista for the Tag Titles. Lost the first 2 matches for the titles then won them on the third. Eventually both Kable/Edge wanted the World Heavyweight Championship, Edge betrayed Kable and the tag team died off, Edge won the WHC and Kable got dropped back to Mid Card before being traded to SmackDown.

All that went over the course of about 14 months and then I stopped.. Didn't really have anywhere else I wanted to take him. As you said, you can do that in Universe though with the create a story you can add some more depth to it.

Also I should have mentioned this before, I'm a Playstation user so unfortunately, I don't have X-Live.

[gbx3]

oh yeah then im not gonna be able to play your stories, damn was looking forward playing them And i know you can add dept that way but it takes so long XD i tried making a story for my little brother because i didnt want to spend hours and hours creating a story for myself if i know what is gonna happen every step in the road, i wanna be surprised and that won't happen with my own story

[MarvstaX]

Lol go buy a Ps3 and WWE 13 for it . Honestly, the only time consuming thing with creating a story, is getting the right scenes. On a longer story (such as my Rival Company story) I could take 10 - 15 minutes just to find the perfect scene to use each time. However on a small story, such as my Yoshi Tatsu rise to Upper Mid Card Story. It is mostly the same Scenes (Talking in ring, backstage interview/assault). So it's easier to get that made up. Granted the speech can also take forever, however I use a USB Keyboard so it makes things MUCH quicker in that aspect.

As for the fun in your own story, if you only work on it bit by bit, then once you go back to play it later, you might have forgotten what happened (heck it's happened to me) and it's a great surprise. Also if you set yourself goals in a match during your own story.. Let's say your a Heel, you might want to put your opponent through 2 Barricades and the Announce Table. Or you might want to knock the ref out and get 3 Chair shots in etc.

As a face though you might want to execute your finisher 3 times or execute all your finishers at least once etc. Also setting matches for you to lose helps (from my experience) cause you can be more realistic with it then, put up the valiant effort and come close only to lose due to a sudden small package or interference etc..

So there are many ways you can enjoy your own story

[Revel]

I haven't really gotten heavily into the create a story feature but can you set goals the same way it happens in attitude mode? (perform 2 finishers, hit with chair etc)

If not, i wish something like that was available. It is available in the attitude mode, maybe these things could be hacked.

Another thing that i hate is lack of really, really good animations. I wish there were a few invasion style animations available like:

- Group invading from crowd (with up to 10-20 members)

- Mysterious blackout attack (lights go off, mysterious attack happens, lights go back on guy is layed out)

- Spray paint attack (attack then spray paint any word on back of wrestler, similar to nwo)

Those 3 animations could make some really good invasion style storylines.

I'm pretty sure if the story comes from a console that had DLC pack 3, regardless of if the content contains any, it will still ask for it. But just to make sure, try injecting "Kelly Runs WWE", it has no DLC content, if it works then we know.

[djlithium]

so these stories come with the CAWS needed to play them? if so, what TNA caws are in the TNA story?

[gbx3]

I tried that one and it didnt work, same with the miz and kelly story so i guess what you're saying is indeed true

[Aussie-Kat]

Dj,

They all come with the CAWs. Unfortunately both TNA Stories are garbage - if anyone can recommend a good one on CC I will download it and post it here. I was thinking of recreating the 2011 Sacrifice PPV but eh, it's all time.

[gbx3]

sorry for the nooby question but whats CC? And Kidsampson posted some stories on the first page of this tread.

Edited January 29, 2013 by gbx3

[Aussie-Kat]

Community Creations = CC

[gbx3]

ah ofcourse and just to get it straight i wont ever be able to play stories made by people who have any dlc pack on their console eventhough no dlc was used in the story?

Is it mentioned on CC if the creator has dlc or not? because how else can people like me (no dlc, no xbox live access) know if they can play it?

i dont want the story, i can create that myself. i just want the caws that are in it, can anybody make a list of what TNA caws are in that story?

[Aussie-Kat]

You have a method to extract CAWs from .sas files?

[djlithium]

do the caws not appear on the in-game editor once the story has been installed? if they do, im sure you can extract them from the xbox HDD onto a USB

[gbx3]

if that would work, it would be a super easy way to share caws
