Hi bro, I just installed SFPWXP on my SnesMini and was wondering if I could use your saves to get all those awesome rosters you listed. Do you know when they will be available? thanks and good job!

Sorry for not replying for so long and in general for taking so long on this. So much stuff has come up since I first announced this and I have so little spare time. I am still 100% committed to finishing it eventually though, hopefully sooner than later. Hi bro, I just installed SFPWXP on my SnesMini and was wondering if I could use your saves to get all those awesome rosters you listed. Do you know when they will be available? thanks and good job! It'll be done when it's done. Hopefully this year.

To use Giant Baba's head and body graphics, extract SFHack to a directory like "C:\DOS". Copy your SRAM into this directory alongside your SFHACK.EXE. Download and run DOSBOX. Type the following commands into DOSBOX, one line at a time - Mount C C:\DOS C: sfhack ssp sramname.srm 1 106 124 Change '1' to the slot number of the CAW you're editing. '106' is Baba's head. '124' is Baba's body. Change 'sramname.srm' to your SRAM filename. Keep file names to 8 characters maximum (DOS limitation).
If you're wanting to use a different body, check out the codes found in SFHack\DOCS\CODES (open it in notepad).

Thanks for the info!
But unfortunately, I'm not sure if SFHack will work on my machine. I'll try it though. If it doesn't work, maybe someone else could help out? (Once I get to that point.)

Thanks for shitting up the thread. Appreciated. /sarcasm
As for "longtime troll who [...] never uploaded anything": That is 100% false. Loooooongtime users from the old Fire Pro Club will remember by old SRAM pack from the very same thread you are referencing. (In other words: You disproved your own post with your own post.) I'm not sure where you are getting any of this from, but seriously, let's not derail the thread. How about you delete your post and I'll delete mine and we'll not start a catfight nor will I accuse you of trolling? (Or can you not delete posts on this forum? I forget. Perhaps a mod/admin will have the courtesy to delete both of our posts? Let's hope so.)
And wrong guess on where I got my name.

The little slapfight can stop now, thanks. Consider this a sort of "umpire warns the benches" moment, and chill out.

Sorry for not updating in so long, but I've been busy and I haven't had much time for games, especially not something as time consuming as making Fire Pro edits. But I will get this edit pack released eventually. I'd be genuinely surprised if it's not out in the next few months. I've finally got some free time for the foreseeable future and I'm going to try to double down starting next week. Thanks for being patient.

STATUS UPDATE:
I've spent this month going over all the edits and fixing/finishing movesets. I actually managed to get the large majority of the remaining movesets done. There's still some left, but I made a surprising amount of progress in that area. After movesets are complete, there's still a few wrestlers that probably could use redone appearances, but that won't take more than a few days. Then I'll probably make around half a dozen (give or take) new edits from scratch. That last part won't take long, but there's also no way I can make more than one per day because I don't have the time for more than that these days, so once appearances and movesets are complete the new edits will add at least another week. At that point it's just a matter of making a new save with all the official edits from the guidebook.
The biggest reason why this has taken so long is that I don't have the free time that I used to have. The reason why I was even able to get so much done this month is because I had very little scheduled and no unexpected bullshit came up, which are not luxuries that I've had the luck of in the time since I announced this. In theory, everything I said in the first paragraph above can be done in under 2 months. MAYBE even within a month if I really double down. Unfortunately it's looking like next month (and potentially beyond) are going to be back to the time consuming bullshit, so I don't know how much time I'll have to work on the saves. I'll try to do what I can, when I can, and keep you guys updated on my progress. But I still don't know when these are going to be done, but they WILL be done. And hopefully sooner than later. The earliest potential release could even be before Spring.

I for one am still looking forward to this release. Having been working on my own stuff (the DLCs for GMSpectre's WCW Saturday Night Romhack) I realize all too well how time consuming these things can be.

Quick update: I'm currently about 1/4 of the way done with updating/finishing the movesets for the Japanese saves. After that the movesets (which was the bulk of the remaining work to be done) will be complete. That won't take more than a few more weeks TOPS. After that it's just some appearance tweaks, a few new edits, and then the new save based on the official edit book, and then it's all done. I still don't know when everything will be done, but I'll be shocked if it isn't finished this Spring. Could even be done by the end of March, though that's looking less likely.

Alright, a few things:
Movesets are done (unless I decide to redo a couple of the more obscure FMW guys in one of the saves). And appearances are done (unless I decide that I'm still not satisfied with I.R.S., which, as I'm sure you can imagine, is one of the very few wrestlers of that era who's not really possibly to make look accurate in X Premium [though I did what I could]). Next up is replacing some of the redundant edits with new ones, though I'm still not sure exactly who I want to replace and who I want to add, but I'll figure it out. Based on the current pace, this will probably release next month.
Also, I was looking through those X Premium SRAMS that got posted a few months ago and I noticed that I apparently reused some of the Bill Battershill edit appearances for some of my own saves. It's less than half of the WWF edits, I'd estimate about a third of the territories edits, and maybe like a quarter of the lucha edits, plus several of the Japanese edits and maybe like five or so of the indie edits. It does look like I (partially, and in some cases completely) redid the movesets for each of them (and for some of them stats and other settings as well), so they aren't BB's exact edits even though they use the appearances. It's been so long that I don't remember making those saves, so I'm not sure if I was using them as placeholders or if I just didn't think I could improve on his appearances, but regardless I just thought I should point that out. This has already taken me so long that I'm not going to redo those appearances because I just don't have the time or patience for that much more work, but when everything is released proper credit will be given.
And lastly, I noticed that there are A LOT of edit formulas in the SFPW III and Special guide books, many of which are wrestlers that have never been in a Fire Pro game and that you'd be hard pressed to even find edits of. Would anyone be interested in seeing those converted into X Premium? I'm not committed to this idea yet, but I might try doing it with a handful of edits just to see how doable it is.

Sounds like you're on the home stretch! I for one look forward to the finished product.
