WWE 2K19 Modding Issue

[KainScion95]

Hi everyone.

I'm fairly new to modding 2k19, but I purchased the game literally because I love wrestling and saw so many new cool mods.

I've set my 2K up to be moddable, I have CCT as well as Data Editor 2K19.
I have the mods folder too.

I've cleared the chunk and rebuilt it.
I can import characters (ch files) as well as renders and they show up perfectly in game.
(Everything has administrator rights too)
I boot up the game, and minimize it or just alt+enter it and then I import the .pofo and .moveset files.
Once they are done, I head back into the game and edit someone in My WWE (Adam Cole) and change his crowd react to and from, and let the game SAVE ALL SETTINGS.
If I check (check not change at all) the new character's move set in game or their entrance in CAE it's all as should be.
I can find the character in the character list and select them.

Once the match loads, the entrance is broken. For the added Johnny Morrison (Slot ID 511) he comes in with a Bray Wyatt-like entrance. In game his moveset is odd (Attitude Adjustment as Finisher) and everything but his payback is blank.
I added Unmasked Kane to the Great Muta Slot (Slot ID 774) and his entrance seems to pan around the arena and not show him at all.
His move set is also similarly messed up.

Does anyone know why this is happening?
I feel like I'm missing something small!

Thank you 😢

did you open the moveset in data editor to verify entrance and accuracy of moveset?

[Cave Waverider]

Some .moveset files may require modded entrance files ( @squaredcirclefan's modded Entrance packs should cover most things, but there may be others), trons, etc. or simply not having bothered to set them nicely. Not all the .pofo and .moveset files people upload are complete or have a good quality. I suggest to always open them with Data Editor before installing, checking if everything is in order there, changing anything that seems off and then click the respective Install via CCT button to use CCT to install them in the game. Some .moveset files may also require modded Moves ( @squaredcirclefan's ported moves pack should cover those).
If you can't get a .pofo or .moveset file to work properly, it may just be corrupted. In that case, use Data Editor to create your own for the Wrestler and see if that fixes it.

Thank you guys for the responses!

I opened the movesets and enterances in Data Editor and they seemed fine (compared them to existing movesets).

Also, I botched Johnny Gargano up and accidentally replaced him with Morrison😂. But there was this pofo and moveset pack I downloaded from the moveset and pofo forum here (I'll check which one when I get home a few hours from now) and it had and "Originals" folder and it had Gargano, and when I used those pofo's and movesets it worked and he's okay now.

I'll try downloading the pofo and moveset you suggested and let you guys know if everything is okay now.

[KainScion95]

I just made a .pofo completely from scratch for John Morrison and it's still the same.
None of the abilities and skills I set for him are present at all.
Once the match loads all the data seems to go to some kind of default setting.

I downloaded the mod you suggested too and it didn't do anything.

I went back and tried the mod I used last too.
I used the pofo and movesets from this mod :

I downloaded the super string he said in his mod that I should have too.
The exact same issue occurs:
Finishers are Attitude Adjustment and skills and abilities are blank too. Character Entrance is still the Bray Wyatt-like entrance.
Everything looks normal in Data Editor too, nothing like what I get in match.

What happens if you use CCT to edit John Morrison's .pofo and .moveset file with Data Editor (i.e. pull it from game memory)? Does it still show everything properly in Data Editor then or is it messed up like in the game?

Also, if you have any Antivirus or Security Software running, try to add CCT to it's exceptions, in case it prevents it from accessing memory.

[KainScion95]

Yes everything is fine in Data Editor the way it should be, in fact if I view him in My WWE it's all good there.
It's literally only once I'm in a match that things go awry.

It has been added to exceptions, so it's cool.
Also, it does change the renders and actual characters too, so I doubt it would be the Antivirus.

[Cave Waverider]

That's very odd indeed. Is it just in MyWWE or is it occuring in Universe Mode? If it's only in one or the other, have you installed the .pofo and .moveset for Superstars as well as each Universe save you want to use the wrestler in. Other than that, I have no idea what could be happening.

[KainScion95]

Okay, so I just tested it and everything is actually fine in Universe Mode only.
Which is odd, because I have imported it to Superstar as well (using Data Editor).
This might not be the worst thing as I actually play 2K for Universe Mode.

[KainScion95]

I've tested it with unmasked Kane that I added to the Great Muta slot and he's also fine in Universe Mode. I've even used Data Editor to add the pofo and movesets so I make sure it goes to BOTH Superstar and Universe slot 1.

[KainScion95]

I had a look at what the default moveset for a modded character is and it matches what I see in match.
Please, walk me through on how to add the moveset and pofo's step by step, I have a good feeling that I'm missing something very small yet critical.

Moved question to a new topic as this one isn't precise enough. The new one is.
