Hi Tom.

I like the idea of renaming standard moves as finishers, sinse you are absolutely right.

The undertakers' tombstone for instance was a fairly standard jumping pile driver, ---- indeed when I was younger we always referd to a pile driver as a tombstone.

Beware the Grue!

Hi Dan,

Well, eventually I am considering releasing the game as open source,
but other than editing the C++ code and recompiling it you really
can't add custom moves etc. A lot of this is hard coded into the game
itself, and in order to add the kind of customizability you are
thinking about requires some sort of scripting interface. I wasn't
planning on going that far with the game.

However, the superstars that make it into the database will eventually
have their finishers added to the game as well. Randy Orton will have
his RKO DDT, Cena will be able to use the AA, CM Punk his GTS, Beth
Phoenix the Glam Slam, etc. Which in most cases are just standard
wrestling moves with a fancy name that reflects the performer's
character.

For example, the Glam Slam is just a standard gorilla press slam. Beth
picks her opponent up, pumps a couple of times, and then drives her to
the mat like a load of bricks. Its a pretty common wrestling move, but
Beth Phoenix named it the Glam Slam since her nickname is the
Glamazon.

What might work better here is to simply create a menu of options of
generic finishers like a DDT which is a pretty common finisher, but is
known by various names. That would save me a lot of work creating
custom functions for an otherwise pretty common finisher or move.

Cheers!

Hi tom,
well i'm not saying the wwe roster is bad, in fact i've been into
wrestling for a long time now and recently am getting into guys like
Cody Rhodes, Dolph Ziggler and others.
I just feel that at the moment as evidenced by the rumble that its
pretty thin on the ground, however with so many top guys out, its
hardly surprising.
I have a couple of questions though.
firstly, will it be possible to make a custom move set for wrestlers
to give them more of their personality such as god forbid the 5 moves
of doom?  lol.
secondly i'm looking forward to seeing your top 100 or so, as its
always good to see opinions of other wrestling fans, as i don't
actually know many sadly.
I'm personally looking forward to making william regal a world champ
for one especially after reading his book which i found to be
fantastic.
No, i'm not a fan just because he's british.
