Whatever happened to the random boxer generator?

Bonedwarf · 05-08-2004, 04:04 AM

I remember seeing mentioned when I got TBCB months ago. I think the guy had done a beta, but then the thing seemed to just vanish.

Just wondered if anyone knew anymore about it as I would love that as an addition to the game.

I posted the same question awhile back, I thought it was a great idea too, I don't know what happened,...he never came back

And there was me getting all excited that this was a response with news

hehehe

Yeah, it's a real shame. I would love to create a totally fictional universe in TBCB.

Wonder how hard it would be to program something? My VB skills are pretty pathetic, but I might give it a look (assuming I can find my VB disk.)

I, too, was really hoping for a random boxer generator. I think I mentioned it here shortly after the game was released...

It's a real shame. Makes me wonder if the whole thing wasn't a hoax in the first place.

It would add a great deal to the game. There is already an immense amount of replayability in TBCB, but the ability to generate your own guy at random and match him against the RL boxers...that would be such fun!

Coming from OOTP, I already create a lot of fictional players (I run fictional leagues). It's fun creating friends too.

Simply renaming an existing fighter just doesn't cut it

I know I must be doing something wrong - I looked at the thread above, but still do not see the link to the random fighter file. Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong? Also, does anyone use this file often? Does it work well?

Thanks,
Collin

There is no link, because there is no file. Read the thread above.
