add a referee

Can someone explain to me how I can insert a new referee (eg Aubrey edwards

In WWE 2k19, all referees use the Wrestler ID 255 with the Attire type of 0. Thus they use  ch255Y0.pac files. All 10 Attires for the referee are already used in the game, thus you'll have to replace one of them with your mod.

You can't install Attire Type 0 files via CCT, so you'll have to do it manually. You can copy the ch255Y0.pac file for your  modded referee (Rename the Y to the correct Attire Number and use a hex editor to match it right at the start of the EMD section or it won't work properly) to the \WWE 2k19\mods\Wrestlers\Referees\pac\ch\ folder  (or wherever you prefer to install your mods to) and then Regenerate the Chunk0.def with CCT.

You may be able to search the forum to find out which attire number is which referee so you'll know which one you want to replace.

You should also be able to find instructions on how to replace referee renders on the forum.

Just replace the referee model, Download at 2KM or SMACKTALKS. You may need to use HxD.

Convert it to EPK8 format. Install it with CCT as ring attire for the slot you wish to use (CCT will auto-convert the mod to EPK8 in the process). Then open the freshly installed file with a hex editor of choice and change the 255Y2 line to 255Y0. Change the file names to match the Referee ones you want to override as well, rebuild the Chunk0.def and you should be good.
