What a beautiful save Never seen such amazing arena and wrestler mods in my life! Keep up the good work mate


Is this game kinda like No Mercy? Looks like it [I am no NM expert, just asking]

This game will be a no mercy mod yes but the actual "Virtual Pro Wrestling" was a video game released in Japan that used the aki engine(same engine as no mercy) and played almost exactly the same. There's also "Virtual Pro Wrestling 2" which again was only released in Japan and featured Japanese wrestlers. Fun games!

 

[PsychoGirl]

Wow, Ya they look really fun to play. Welp, if you need anything, feel free to use stuff from my resource packs.

Good luck with this, I'll keep watch

Edit- my bad, I didn't see the section it was in, but your mod totally makes the default No Mercy game look so damn different! Great stuff ahaha

Keep on truckin', guys.

 

[bluntfello]

The crowd looks amazing.

Just join the development team to help out Jazz and Jcsix to keep the save alive with their agreement, and with the permission to post previews.


Heres 90's Yuji Nagata.

Credit Jcsix.

Excellent!!!

 

[bluntfello]

That's really good AKI style quality. Some guys say they are doing AKI style but just take an image and blur the hell out of it.

 

[dafamily]

can't believe this is a WWF No Mercy mod!!! You guys are crazy at pushing the limits man!!

If your modding "AKI", why half ass it.

Glad to have Jordy on with this, welcome aboard!

Jordy's work is a piece of art. So are jcsix's stuff.

 

[PsychoGirl]

Forgive me for saying this, but this mod makes No Mercy look waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the original game.

Good Goin guys

Heres an update on Nagata : Improved colors, WCW attires, Early 2000s attires and better faces/front hairs

Thank to both Jazz and Jcsix for some tips and stuff on the face

 

[TheBITW44]

This looks great. Is there an ETA on it? The OP says Winter 2014 but that is long past long. No rush though, this looks like a brand new VPW game which is a dream game for sure.

 

[AKI Man]

Wow. This looks freaking awesome. So happy to see updates still going on this. Hope everyone is well.

 

[CalvTheHedgehog]

I check this thread every single time I'm on OSR. Seriously. I love how this is turning out

 

[DCLawliet]

I tell you what, I've just created an account just so I can keep track of this save and the progress of it. Reading through the 12 pages of this stuff has got me beyond hyped for the potential of this. I'm loving what I'm seeing here. Props go out to everyone who has worked on this the past 4 years. Keep on going

First of all, thanks for all the support, I was always encouraged by so many people commenting here despite the long hiatus the save went on. And secondly, I apologize for not keeping in touch during most of the time. It's a long story and I don't wanna bore anyone with details, but basically I moved abroad almost 3 years ago and my new job and settling down in a new country (from America to China is a huge leap, culturally, and the language barrier can be daunting) took up a lot of my time, but I would still work on the save here or there as time permitted.

Now, on to important details: the save as originally intended was more than a bit overambitious, the roster was huge (almost all slots would be shared, plus some), so we have decided to break down the save into smaller pieces.

The first save will be basically themed around what a Virtual Pro Wrestling 3 game would've looked like, using wrestlers and rosters based on the period between 2000 and January 2001. So you can expect to see most of the VPW2 roster + some new faces
- One wrestler per slot
- One arena: Korakuen Hall (as previewed here. A new, even more detailed version is in the works but will not be part of the initial relase)

With the addition of Jordy and self_destruction, and the completion of Jcsix's attire bases, work on the wrestler mods has been going on at a really good pace with all three of us working on individual wrestlers and even collaborating on single mods, and I can't speak highly enough for the quality of work that those three gentlemen have been putting in!

I won't try to put another release date on it, lest unforeseen circumstances come up, but I truly hope we could get some initial release out before the end of the year. The move replacements and move hacks are about 80% done, the arena is 90% done, so really it's just a matter of us working on the roster and interface.

Here are some wrestler mods I've worked on recenty:

Satoshi Kojima

Manabu Nakanishi

Tetsuhiro Kuroda

Nobutaka Araya

Koji Kanemoto

credit: jcsix for attire bases, FTW_Jme for kickpad base, shout out to Ronald Rain, whose AKI Faces PSD was super useful for making custom front hairs/facial hairs.

That Kojima is AMAZING. All of these look really good, I'm excited to see this is still going!
