Red Roosters Mod Thread - WCW World War 3

[Red Rooster]

Red,  have i to extract or uncompress the file 1B59 inside MnLayHD? If i extract the file i can't open it with "ctrl+T" thanks

Uncompress, then inject the dds files, inject back into the pach and inject that back into the pac. "Update Arc Non Wrestler". Make sure you open the pac using Ctrl +R

[LordBarker]

Installed these and are bloody amazing! I didn't watch a great deal of WCW as a kid, I now want to go back and check it out based on how great these arenas are! Really fantastic. Any plans to update the old WWF ones - Royal Rumble, Summer Slam, SNME etc. with videos/name plates?

Eventually, I want to redo them anyway because my skills with textures etc were a bit lacking when I made those arenas, Im sure I could do a much better job now.

[LordBarker]

Good news man!

[LordBarker]

I had your Starrcade and Clash uploads working fine in bg 53 and 54, however after I installed the 4 custom WCW arenas, every arena except those 2 - Clash and Starrcade. I've checked the arc and no difference to when they were working. If I select Starrcade or Clash the screen goes black and continues to load. I don't get a fatal crash or a hang it just loads endlessly, the music changes etc. as thought it's working but the screen just stays black - any ideas? If I install them in slots 48 and 49 now they do work, I just wondered why the original place I put them stopped for no apparent reason.

Like I told you in that IM awhile back... feel free to edit any of the ones I modded if you like them as a base... just saying

I suspect it must be arc issues with the MatchHD.pac, updating the arc files of non wrestler files can be a bit hit and miss.

Try updating them manually. 

 

I had some problems "compress & injecting" some matchup screens so I decided to just inject them all and update the arc instead. You could also try extracting the files out and then "Compress & Inject" the 1B59 texture archive into the MB## file for my WCW arenas, then update your arc, that may fix the problem too.

Thanks mate, makes sense. I always update manually regarding arenas and did the same here. I think I'll try the couple of suggestions you make later on and see what happens.

I've had the same issue before, stupidly didn't even think of just injecting and updating. In this instance I assume I can just inject if I get an issue and update with the 'update non-wrestler' button rather than manually?

 

It seems odd since every other arena works fine apart from the two, Clash and Starrcade, I put in just before adding your 4 new WCW ones. I'll see what I can come up wit. Cheers.

Winning Animations for CLDC added

[Mathayus]

Thanks, Red. I´ll go for it yet.

[Mathayus]

Hey Red. I just installed the Winnings. But in the tuto you made a little mistake. You put for Jimmy Uso 438. But he is 440.

 

Champion Winnings start with 9. I never watched the current Undertaker Champion winning. But I´ll give a look a it, cause retro Taker haven´t any.

[El Guapo]

Thanks for the leg-work Red, looking forward to trying these out

Thanks for the heads up, I fixed it.

 

Yeah you could just inject the current Undertaker Champion victory again and assign it to Retro Undertaker.

Harlem Heat and Wrath added

[IamCrazyPT]

Thanks a lot for the Harlem heat. I was waiting for a long time

[LordBarker]

Cheers for Harlem Heat mate, awesome work!

[IamCrazyPT]

Does anyone have a Stevie Ray render? I can't find one anywhere.

Btw i have a Booker T Harlem Heat render if anyone wants it.

[Red Rooster]

[LordBarker]

Meant to add - I assume the 2k15 winning animations removed the victory audio like the entrance?

[Red Rooster]

Im not sure but its possible

[MDTornado]

Suberb work red.....

[motishow]

Thanks a lot red, tested the winning animations and works really good, with that the game is other thing

One question Red,  how can i change the slot number inside winning00.pac? I mean, if i open it in hexeditor it isn't EPK8 format and i can't find the slot number at the text strings

[Mathayus]

The EPK8 format doesn´t matter. Look for EVP and you´ll find it. Or you can look for the number you want. Example 6100. (The Rock)
