Okie dokie, here's the skinny.
I'm officially bringing my Superhero Beatdown mod here to the MWN. I know, it's already up on MpireMall, but that was done without permission- like I'm that fucking hard to find- but any future work on the mod will be coming straight here.
Anyway, for those that haven't seen it, it's my old dream of having a superhero-based wrestling game. Right now it's running on a code-modded WM08 (I know, what isn't), but I just snagged the code for Remix, so I'll probably transfer it at some point.
Here's the features I'm looking to have in the final version:
* All feds replaced by comic-themed feds (done)
* All characters have relatively comic-accurate stats at start
* All characters have a moveset that is appropriate to the character
* All have entrance music (I know, duh)
* The vast majority of texture elements replaced
* My old efed of close to 8 years, OCW, will be represented.
* I dunno, maybe something else- I'm thinking about rewriting some of the promos.
The roster itself is finalized, though the feet textures aren't correct on most, and I'll probably fix that at some point- this has been in the works since Encore, so it's been through a lot.
And you might ask why it's taken so long, and the basic answer is computer problems. I've suffered 3 separate hard drive crashes (thanks, Seagate, you fuckers) where I've lost work. In the last one, I lost 3d crowd member textures and all of the work that I had done on wrestler themes, which were roughly 30% done. Losing that much sort of made me not give a shit anymore.
So anyway, I'm going to be working on this and I'm hoping to get it finished by the end of the year. I mean, most of the work at this point is grunt work.
Frankly, I need help with the grunt work. I'll be posting a new beta here on these boards within the next couple of days. Here's what I'm looking for:
* Character-accurate (within reason, I mean, it ain't like we can have supermoves, I just don't want Galactus luchadoring it up) movesets and taunts. These can be submitted by simply sending me the character's .dat file; I'll have a list.
* Character theme suggestions. Not many of these guys have themes, so pointing me at some cool tunes for characters would be awesome. Instrumentals included.
* Any other suggestions. I can't do any 3D modeling (I don't have the knowledge or the software at the moment), though if anyone else is willing to tackle some, that's cool- there are some basic mods that would be nifty, but not necessary. I'm also not including any extra moves, at least that I know of.
Anyway, that's about it. Suggestions are always appreciated but please realize that at this point, no other characters are likely to make it in, and aside from the feet issue that I'm hoping to fix, if I can figure out a way, there isn't a whole lot else that I plan to do aside from just getting everyone's basic stats set up. Thanks!

So what do I need from YOU?
