It seems that newer versions of Windows will not allow the necessary commands to be executed inside of a Program Files folder. I don't think there is a way to script around this. The workaround would be to move your game install to a different folder not inside of Program Files (ex: "C:\SteamGames"). There are several ways to do this (google is your friend). This may seem like a lot of hassle for a simple index script, however arena mods in the future will also likely rely on batch scripting as they did in 2K16 so it is easier to do it now before modding gets into a full swing. I suspect that running the game outside of the Program Files folder will lead to fewer modding issues in general. doesn't work for me, copied all 3 files in my 2k18 folder (wich is not located in program files folder). when i launch the batch file, the dos windows says the specified path was not found then close. edit: problem fixed, it was because my wwe 2k18 folder, wasn't called wwe 2k18 Edited October 25, 2017 by tich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The HSN Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Well after a research on menu files (my fav part) i found they used same animation types for 2K18 (i thought they will change it since they dropped last-gen) so , i just converted WWE2K18 BG (without seth or people , coz thats a different story) to SvR11 PSP/PS2 and as this screenshot shows ... it works so same thing is probably possible last older games for match cards -> Selection pics and stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AznBlusuazn Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I noticed that for slot 256, it seems that the city/state/country reverts back to 002b5d (new york) regardless of saving the changes to 03175d (chicago). ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep , technically we can mod last gen games too we tried with 2K14 (since that game had more options and abilites in last gen) thanks to @eatrawmeat391 with his PAC Editor i was able to change files in PS3 , i changed loading icon and it worked however for other things , since it was Disc version of game , it had Checksum and stuff and it was crashing at Game Data installation so i guess PSN version of game in PS3 will work since that doesn't having checksum if you change the files and about 2K17 in PS3 , well since they used new algorithm for files , we still can't Update ARC there --------- at all , its possible since for animations they using same structure , you might not get the wrestlers there at menu .. but at least you can convert the BG - or match cards and stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It keeps coming up with unsecure connection and doesn't allow me to reload, proceed or anything? Any help with this would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is it something that anyone and everyone can get or not? But tbh it sounds a bit technical for me. I am not very good when it comes to tech. I can play games sure but the tech side of it I don't know much of. I managed to mod 2K15 and 16 with the Data Editor, CCT, and Sound Mod etc and I am hoping I can do the same with 2K18 as and when it is released. At the moment I am able to swap out wrestler attire pacs and use them in game. But it will be a lot better once the tools are there to use. I already thanked you and others in a different post for an outstanding job that you guys are doing to make this game so much better. A grand job you are all doing.

I tried changing the memory table to 1-0, but I got a texture glitch. sorry my bad english i used Google Translator. No problem, so.. I first choose the female fighter (i created one, wich is shofitia.. maybe it don't work for original whrestlers..) [she is still a female, i don't change her gender] then, i switch my another whrestler from male, to female.. then i choose him to be my oponent, then quickly switch gender back to male.. and that's it xD sorry my english, brazilian noob here.. so in the end, it's still a fight of a Female Vs Male.. i don't let both to be the same gender in the fight itself.. because of the walking animations and stuff..

Freon Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 @pozzum @Cave Waverider @Perfectplex Just want to share something I've been meaning to tell you that I am not sure whether you guys know already or not. If you do, then obviously disregard but its been bothering because I see certain people still replacing their existing Titantrons. You can add new Titantrons without having to replace an existing one. If you don't know how just respond to this & I'll write out the steps, & if you do know then just disregard like I said.
