New
- Mod support. Mods add to the game or change it: wrestlers with their own models, attires, pictures, voice lines
and movesets, new moves and animations, and arenas with their own models, lights, fly-ins, crowd sounds and Choose
Stage pictures. A mod wrestler can take a game wrestler's place or get a new slot on Choose Fighter. A mod arena can
take a game arena's place or appear as a new stage on Choose Stage. - Projects. Mods are played in a project: a set of mods in the order you choose, with its own saves. The original
game never loads mods, and its saves stay as they are. Make and pick projects on the settings program's Play page,
and switch their mods on or off on the Mods page. A whole project can be shared with friends as one zip. - A check before a project starts. If a project's mods have a problem (a mod missing, or a move that isn't there), the
game says what is wrong instead of starting. - The mod kit comes with the game. The mod kit v0.3.0 is in the Mod kit folder beside the game. Open it from
the settings program's Mods page with Open the mod kit. It makes wrestlers, attires, moves, animations and arenas
and adds them to a project. Its Blender plugin brings the game's models into Blender 5.2 and exports your own.
Better
- High Poly always. Every match uses the High Poly wrestlers and arenas, so the setting for it is gone.
- The first start after installing or updating is quicker. The graphics prepared during setup are now used, so
the game no longer spends about 2 minutes on "Preparing graphics" the first time it opens.
Fixed
- Setup stopped while building the game on some PCs (an internal compiler error). The setup now checks the build
tools' compiler and the Windows SDK, and updates older build tools by itself. Thanks to the player who reported it.
Good to know
- To update, press Update when the game asks as it starts, or on the settings program's Play page. Your saves and
settings stay as they are. The mod kit is added to your install by the update. - After the update Windows may show "Windows protected your PC" again (the program isn't signed yet): click
More info, then Run anyway. - The original game plays as before. Mods are only played in a project.
