CAW in DLC?

[wyndrax212]

Hi i created a caw nothing special but then i added another mod i believe it was the Road Warriors and then all of a sudden my CAW was in both the custom superstars selection and my DLC selection.  Any idea how this happened and does that mean i can take and extract his textures or be able to change and place him in the regular roster or what?

Did your mod also go into the game or did your CAW somehow replace the mod you installed?

[wyndrax212]

No it did.  But i also had used the pacplus by Pozzum

Not really, you just likely moved him to a different menu, it's still a CAW with all it's benefits and limitations. Did you perhaps edit the .pofo for your CAW with the Data Editor and change the DLC status? If you figure out how you did it, please let me know as it might be rather interesting to have CAWs available in other menus as well, and perhaps move regular and modded wrestlers to that menu if you want to sort them by three brands or whatever and perhaps I could implement the functionality into the Data Editor.

I had the same issue with a caw and it turns out it was because I had loaded a pofo for it with the Data Editor and hadn't noticed that "Set as DLC" was already marked as "Yes (appears in Downloaded Superstars Menu)". Your post helped me figure it out, thanks.

Aha, that's what I thought. Thank you for the confirmation. I wonder if there is a value to "set as CAW". I'll do some testing when I find the time.

yea it isnt working for me i tried switching it back for me in Data Editor and then installing it using the CCT but it doesnt move.   But am I able to transfer over CAWs from 2K15 to 16?

hi @Cave Waverider i downloaded a balls mahoney and a raven from Community creations, and YES they are in DLC also, BUT the problem is they are both in DLC and CAWs so its like they are available in both menus :\ 

[Cave Waverider]

Yeah, it looks like the CAW menu doesn't relly have it's own value, CAWs are automatically added to it.
