UPDATE! Beta .3 released. Still needs a lot of work, bur I want to get some feedback and show what I can do so far. I've been using Project64 1.6 and Glide so far. Feedback (good and bad) is welcome.

After testing out how quickly I can learn this editing thing, I wanted to make a mod full of goofy gimmicks, and pattern the roster so that the characters would fit in with the dialogue used in the various championship modes. I decided to make the graphics "AKI style" using various tutorials for a guide. That is because I wanted to have them blend in with the graphics in the rest of the game (like that one hidden Big Show face). Any graphics or codes I make are pretty much open for anyone to use if they want. I was able to figure out how to get a good AKI style face using Paint Shop Pro and the right face. I will be using resources from other games, such as VPW2 and WCW Revenge. I also am going to use the same moveset with each costume. If I do make another version of a character I'd rather have them have another character space (like the various Stone Colds in WWE '16).
I have yet to learn how to make arena mods and individual move hacks, but that can be saved for a later time. I don't want to ask a ton of questions and be an annoyance.
So with all that said, I have decided to make a roster mod. I know it's not going to be to the extent of Showdown 64, but I want to make it at least worth checking out when completed. It is named after an old newsletter parody that I used to contribute to.
Here is a quick video, and I'll post mod pictures when I have time this weekend . I hope this gives a good idea of what I'm going for so far.

I hope you like what I'm going to be making, and am open to any suggestions.
The first character I made was Johnny Ace
I decided to make it easy for myself by using the VPW2 moveset and graphics. And fits in with the theme of the characters I wanted to make with his Dynamic Dude and recent corporate gimmicks.
The second one was his tag partner Shane Douglas.
I used an Orson Scan for the face. For the moveset I used the one made by CAW movelists from the CAWplace message board, and for logic, I used the one from Keson's mod code from the No Mercy Library. I replaced the Franchiser with a Belly to Belly, mostly because I liked that one better as a finisher.
The third one is P.N.News
This was the point where I convinced myself I could actually pull this off. For the face, I was going to use the one from "nWo mark's Folder O'Goodies" in the modding starter kit, but decided to use one from a picture search. For the moveset, I used a DKJM save for FirePro R as a basis. I prefer to use movesets from older AKI games, but I found that the saves made by that creator to be a good reference for what I want for characters that wouldn't usually have one.
For my fourth one, I decided to make a man who took the WWF by storm. A man called Zeus.
Again, I found Orson's Scans very useful and hopefully his costumes will give a good idea for what I'm going for with this project. I made the moveset based on his matches (all 4 of them!), and can confirm that he has an accurate "moveset".

Anyways the moveset/stats/logic are from the Keson Mod from the No Mercy Library. I did want to make an attempt to edit the People's Elbow ground grapple so that I could take out the Rock's theatrics, and start learning how to move hack at the same time.
When I finally figured out what I was doing wrong with ripping from WCW/NWO, I made Dusty Rhodes. At first the face seemed off, but as I played the game the face was just so goofy, it actually fit in perfectly with my project.
Again, Keson's mod at No Mercy Library was used as the base, and he did have his elbows, his dancing, but I was able to add.....
The Dusty finish!
And speaking of WCW/NWO Revenge managers, here's Virgil.
The movelist was from CAW Movelists at CAWPlace. And after putting Virgil in the game, he's already trying to scam people out of their money!
Here is a character from Smackdown: Just Bring It and X-Box Raw, and a superstar who made a short return a few years back.
His moveset is loosely based on the Just Bring It moveset. Face modding into AKI style is getting easier for me as well.
I mentioned wanting to use the Big Show face that was hidden in the game...
However there was a small problem, there was a small bug with the code I used, and this caused the Big Show to turn heel in the game, so on another spot I have...
For the moveset, logic and stats, I used the Wrestlemania 2000 info for the Big Show, and for the Evil Show, I used the moveset from the Keson mod at the Np Mercy Library, and adjusted his moves and logic a bit so he finishes his matches with a knockout punch to show how good of a wrestler he is.

. There are two types of characters I want to populate this path. The first consists of "special guest" characters in wrestling games like Fred Durst from Just Bring It. I decided to make two recent ones, with movesets based on the games they were in.
