WCW/nWo 2K16 Project: Crow Sting Final WIPs 1/24/17

Why not use the default jacket mate on crow sting?

Why not use the default jacket mate on crow sting?

Because he didn't wear it at Starrcade. It was a very oversized coat with shoulder pads & a grey scorpion logo. I may end up going back to the original if I can't get the designs down. I just want it to be as accurate as possible.

lol what I'm saying is that he didn't wear that jacket that's default on Sting '99 at Starrcade '97.

Ah ok sorry mate and plz release it as soon as possible :)!

One last suggestion mate, can you please uncolor his nose hole?!

[hovathagod32]

One last suggestion mate, can you please uncolor his nose hole?!

Yeaaaah, I've tried actually.. Sting's nose is a bit difficult to remove the color from. My texture has the nostrils blacked out to give off that effect. His nose is so big in game that it just puts dots on the side of his nostrils instead of matching up with the face texture in 000C. I have to make edits to the facepaints anyways, so i'll try when I can sit and draw again. Still healing from surgery so that's a process in itself. 

 

In the meantime I'm trying to mapout arena replacements. I'm kinda giving up on editing the crowd colors (if anyone reading this knows how to do it, please let me know lol). Just trying to start my asset injections (aprons, 3d objects, ring mats, etc) and pray I don't screw up the misc files. After I get everything injected, then I'll work on nameplates/menus. Gotta give praise to LordJustice17 because this is a lot of work to do alone lol

 

Last thing I want to try is implementing Schiavonne & Heenan (maybe Tennay to replace JBL?) into commentary. That'll probably be a personal project but I do want to attempt it.

[therealsting16]

It's okay mate if you can't do it, take your time and can't wait for Starrcade '97 Sting because this is my favorite Sting attire of all time!

[hovathagod32]

Coming along, I guess. Some I had to render myself (Nitro, Thunder. Proud of Nitro lol) but these are the arenas that are pretty much finished & placed. There's some stages I have finished but don't really know which arenas to override them with:

Not really sure how deep into 1999/2000 I can go.. I forgot the max arena #. I think I ran out of arenas with ramps too, gotta figure out how to render that in so it doesn't look weird if I have to go that route.

I love the details you put in those arenas and attires. Hoping you'll take all time you need to make it as great as possible.

I'm trying lol.. Bouncing all over the place to get stuff finished...

 

 

I'm trying to find the Main WWE 2K16 logo. I found one of them. Here's one of the Logos I'm going with for the overall project:

 

WCW/nWo Revenge 2K

I finally figured it out..

 

 

Wish finding the crowd color was this successful

if you mean the crowd shirts I think @LordJustice17 told me that they are like textures with multiple layers with each layer being a shirt.  Not sure if that is right but he may be able to remember better.

Yeah that's correct about the shirts.. What I mean is the crowd color during a match. For example: Raw is a red crowd, Smackdown is blue, Summerslam is blue/orange, MITB is Yellow etc. I saw on PS3/360 that there's a texture file that allows you to alter those colors. I can't for the life of me figure out where it's located on PC. Whether it's a texture file or whether it's hex controlled. I just hope it's not hardcoded.

[hovathagod32]

Working on SuperBrawl VIII.. I think it's pretty much finished since I probably can't angle the stage to the corner without losing the stage lights. 

 

Does anyone know if you can create video files for objects? What I want to do is turn those SuperBrawl screens into walltrons if I can't do full video

[hovathagod32]

Ok I finally got My placement down set for 97/98. The missing ones will be filled with 99-2000. I think I have 23 arenas for 99-2000.. 22 if I keep LordJustice's Thunder Stage for the original look. I'm also thinking of using the DLC slots for 1996 stuff. Definitely doing Bash at the Beach 96, Maybe Starrcade 96. If you guys have suggestions I'll look into it. Hopefully 2K17's limit is a bit bigger:

[LordJustice17]

[hovathagod32]

Yeah, I thought Arena editing was time consuming, but creating nameplates and transition videos are a bitch lol.. a lot of work to make 1 second and 2 second videos, but it'll be worth it in the long run. Especially with 2K17 and the Show intros.

If you finish the mod after 2K17 is out on PC, will you still release it on 2K16 ?

I'm not sure. It'd depend on what I'd have to finish for 2K16 and whether or not 2K17 is a hassle to accomplish what I want to do. My priority may switch with 2K17 but right now I'm working with the intent to release on 2K16.

Haven't completed the nameplates and matchup screen for this, but the 3d Starrcade logo & transition video came out ok. Wish they were a second or 2 longer though. lol @ youtube blocking Voodoo Chile INSTANTLY
