Is it possible to "mod" a Community Creation downloaded CAW?

[ilidiankid]

So I found @Rhuanico99 CM Punk and it's fantastic AND with a proper render...Can I edit his CAW to insert AznBlusuazn's ported CM Punk 2015 entrance animation (I think that's the .moveset file? You guys are geniuses or something I spent 3 days reading these stuff and still can only barely understand the basis behind WWE 2k modding)?

If possible, please kindly leave me links to the necessary tools and wiki/resources. Thank you all and hope you had a good Thanksgiving.

Of course. You'll have to edit his .moveset file with Data Editor and set the CM Punk Entrance, Trons, theme, etc. for him and then inject it into the CAW's slot.

How do I access/extract the .moveset from CAW downloaded from Community Creation? Is it in the save file or memory while game is running?

I tried opening Data Editor but it seem I have to point to a specific .moveset (which I have only ever see from mods downloaded here - not official CC CAW)

You'll have to extract it from the game. CCT should allow you to do this with ease once it's released, I'm not sure if WrestlePlus allows you to extract/inject CAW .pofo and .moveset files. You can do it manually with cheat engine, however.

Cave, I've never used Cheat Engine before. I just downloaded it and have it running. How do I find and extract the caws movesets using it?

Welp I downloaded Cheat Engine and tried to wrap my head around it with the Memory table and I have decided that it's definitely way above my pay grade lol. I imagine if it was something simple like changing gender or the unlock credit amount then maybe I can do it but to import a .moveset into the game using Cheat Engine...Guess I'll wait for CCT. Thanks a lot though, really appreciate the work you're doing for the community. I'll be more than happy to donate when my paycheck comes in.

BTW hope you guys can convince AznBlusuazn to return to modding lol, honestly for every troll/entitled pirate/griefer out there he has 10 other people who love and appreciate his work, not sure why he focus on the negative.

It's a bit complicated, but there should be cheat engine tutorials out and about on the forum somewhere which should explain things well enough.

The addresses for CAWs may be found in the CAW Info Memory sheet. You can find it by clicking the Memory Table button in Data Editor (if you have a CAW Wrestler ID selected, the button will take you right to the CAW table).

Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you liked my caw. Be sure to tag me when you finish extracting his entrance to the caw, I'm really curious to see how it would look like !!!

Only for you @Rhuanico99 https://imgur.com/a/49lJBXQ

I think it looks perfect...though I have only managed to do the titantron so no wall banner ringpost etc. For those curious, I actually had to do this the roundabout way courtesy of @jakeypearce's "Create an Entrance item adder". I added AznBlusuazn's ported 2k15 Entrance motion and titantron, both using that tool, then select those for your CAW in Easy Entrance. Hah!

Though curiously, I have only managed to get the titantron working for the RAW arena only...try any other arena and it's a black screen instead. I named the tron ent_0131_0_0_0.bk2 if that makes any difference.

Thanks man! Great job on the entrance and titantron!
