Tales from the Dark


Vulpes R

Recommended Posts

Well, I finally started playing my copy of SvR2008 again and decided to port over some of my SvR2006 crew, the results so far have been decent. As always, sorry for the craptastic pics. I really need to buddy up to someone who can take pics for me. :|

[b]1. Chuck Williams[/b]

[img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023778.jpg[/img] [img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023779.jpg[/img]

Age: 29
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 185lbs.
Alignment: Face
Entrance Theme: Dope - "Nothing for me Here"
Finishers - The RBR (RKO), RBR Black (Rated RKO)

Notes: Chuck is of course me. The tattoos you may see are ones I have actually got, as is the shirt I am wearing, necklace and pants. High-Flyer of course mixed with Hardcore. I have gone through many versions throughout the years and I just made this look in 06. I am pretty happy with how it turned out.

Trivia: Chuck comes from a whole family of wrestlers, he has 3 brothers and his father has also been involved in the circuit.

[b]2. "No Ordinary" Joe Hunter[/b]

[img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023780.jpg[/img] [img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023781.jpg[/img]

Age: 29
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 187lbs.
Alignment: Heel
Entrance Theme: Cubanate - "Ordinary Joe"
Finishers: Joe-Kick (Super Kick), 7-11 Spear (Edge's Spear)

Notes: The name was inspired from a song by Cubanate, which is a kick ass tune. Joe is my IRL best friend and we have been playing wrestling games way back in the arcades with WrestleFest. Joe's character has the cunning of Edge, the flair of HBK and has had some amazing matches in the past years.

Trivia: Formerly a partner with Chuck in The Darkside Kids until he turned heel in the fashion of HBK when he put Marty through a window.

[b]3. Scott Klassen[/b]

[img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023782.jpg[/img] [img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023783.jpg[/img]

Age: 28
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 200lbs.
Alignment: Face
Finishers: D&D (Pedigree), Klassen Lock (Ankle Lock)

Notes: Ah Scotty, another friend of mine who is short and pokey. Every year he gets his wrestling game he tries and makes himself look all luchadore. In my mind, Scotty is more like a Crash Holly. The little guy who thinks that he's a super heavyweight, so Scotty is the little goon that could.

Trivia: Scott has never held onto a title more than one week.

[b]4. The Gimp[/b]

[img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023784-1.jpg[/img] [img]http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj315/vulpesr/S4023785.jpg[/img]

Age: Unknown
Height: 7'4"
Weight: 400lbs.
Alignment: Tweener
Finishers: Nail in the Coffin (Tombstone Piledriver 1)

Notes: The Gimp used to be a guy in a leather bondage outfit back in SYM and HCTP, in 06 we gave him a new gimmick. Sporting total body burns (really just clever make-up come on now), The Gimp is the wild-card on my wrestling save, he comes and goes as he pleases and now with the ability to light stuff on fire in 08 he really shines.

Trivia: The Gimp is the only CAW not based on a friend that has been on every wrestling game I have played with a CAW mode.

And there we go. I will get some more up and maybe post formulas. Hope you enjoy, please rate, review, etc and so forth. There are well over 40 original wrestlers I have to put onto 08, so keep tabs. :3

[quote]they all look pretty cool, but The Gimp is damned amazing, nice job. 10/10 on all.[/quote]

Thanks. I am still getting used to the edit functions of 08. The facial morphing doesn't seem right to me except on Chuck. :|

The Gimp is one of my favorite CAWs, he didn't appear in 07 but I'll be damned if he isn't scary in 08. Still, to me nothing beats the moveset options of 06.

[quote name='dark chicken' post='3743509' date='Feb 10 2008, 08:21 PM']the gimp looks like a hillbilly freddy kruger
theyre awesome
kould ya give out chucks form hes awesome[/quote]

Well The Gimp's look was inspired from House of 1000 Corpses/The Devil's Rejects, at least that's what my buddy Scotty always says.

When I finish my work week I will try and get a formula up or failing that a handy NTSC Max Drive save. :3

[quote]They are interesting, unfortunately they are not good. Chuck looks...meh. Joe looks...meh. Scott looks disfigured, and the Gimp looks ridiculous. 5.2/10[/quote]

Unlike most CAW creators, I appreciate your candor. I have said more than once that I am not as pleased as I am with these as my SvR2006 creations, of which you can view...

Here: [url="http://caws.ws/forum/index.php?showtopic=209226"]http://caws.ws/forum/index.php?showtopic=209226[/url] (my originals, newest on the top)

And here: [url="http://caws.ws/forum/index.php?showtopic=210185"]http://caws.ws/forum/index.php?showtopic=210185[/url] (tributes to other original CAWs)

In my own opinion, the CAW mode in 08 is lacking as compared to 06, and if you can't tell the difference the...yea. 5 point something is still a generous score though and I thank you. The Gimp is The Gimp. xD Over the top and a throw back to old school gimmicks, sort of a tribute to the worst gimmicks you can find in WCW back in the day. The others, yea--totally agree. Meh. They lack the panache of my 06 versions (due to the limitations of 08 on PS2).

I could seriously go on and on about 06 vs. 08. The limited movesets, lack of designs to layer to make logos/tattoos, the weird Maximum Layers Reached on certain parts, the glitched season mode, the unrealistic facial/morphing, there's not even different stances which really gave characters personality. :| But this isn't about that, this is about my CAWs, so carrying on...

[quote]Great CAWs here. You best CAW is the 1 currently on TWF: Chuck Williams.[/quote]

Thanks Tony, and once again you point out that my TWF is CAW is the 06 (and outdated) version. D: I really hope thestatswhore is not going to change versions of the game because I would like to fire him new versions of my 06 guys.

So all in all I think I am done with 08 and will continue with 06, seeing as my best stuff is on there. Sure, it's outdated, sure I am probably the only person who still plays it all the time, but I'll be damned if my Original CAWs on it don't look fantasic. >:3

That is probably the greatest compliment I have ever got on these boards. xD I will be the first to admit it that my "skillz" with 08 are seriously lacking and 06 is my bread and butter. Thanks muchly. :3
