The smooth background music reminds me of reading WWF magazines and looking at the posters in Winn-Dixie as a kid while my mom was grocery shopping 😆 it's very fitting for this timeline, I love it.
You don't get enough credit for how you plan these out, every game of yours is like a time capsule. 2k should've snapped you up as series designer/planner when they had the chance in 2020
Bro brought everything I originally wanted in SYM back 😩 I saw the Pre orders for the physical copy and imma order it when I get situated I’m just as hyped when I got the original copy in Fall of 2002
I’ve been apart of your Patreon since 2019/2020 and I’m stoked for the new updates like this since I feel like this is what Smackdown just bring it was supposed to be
Man this is just incredible! The amount of time and effort you put into remaking these games or should I say restoring these games. Props to you Jay! 👍🏾
I'd be keen to know if the US board had any ROM differences to what's out there - some Zapruder-esque frame by frame suggests there may be a few earlier releases on your PCBs than MAME reports (Darts v2.0 is not marked as working due to a bad dump, so this might be what's needed to repair it).
This is amazing stuff man that time period was special for me Is there any chance, and I know it's a long shot, that Chris Jericho could be the undiputed champion with both belts Looking forward to your release and thanks for doing this for wrestling fans
@@ScottJay01 kotr 2001? you also changed the textures of that arena? judgement day 2002 might be a good end because the ppv logo might had the wwf logo i hope that you might make a video about SYM development and things that have changed a lot
I wouldn't doubt that they locked the wrestlers out in Season mode to ensure you get the full story. A good chunk of the story wouldn't exist if nWo was split between shows or on the opposite show of yours
I had a few suggestions for add ons for this of possible -old Smackdown arena -wrestlemania x-seven arena -2001 undertaker long hair -hhh my time theme -2000 rock hair -road dogg -Shane McMahon
Fantastic updates as usual, Scott! I have quite a few questions about SYM that I’ve been meaning to ask for ages but never got around to (apologies if you’ve already addressed any of them in the past): 1. For wrestlers with alternate attires, is it possible to modify/assign alternate entrances for each attire so that their music + video correspond respectively? For example, Hulk Hogan’s “A attire” is left as is, but if you choose his “B attire” he will come out in black & white to his nWo theme + video, and maybe his “C attire” has the “Real American” theme instead of “Voodoo Child”. It always annoyed me how I’d have to keep manually altering his entrance whenever I was playing season mode. 2. Have you considered assigning the old-school RAW stage to the 1st year of season mode (pre-WM), and then the updated stage upon entering the 2nd year (post-WM)? 3. The number of faction slots is way too limited in my opinion. For me, about half of them are used up on nWo alone. Is it possible to mod more slots into the game? 4. Concerning the SmackDown arena in HCTP, is it possible to add collision detection to the “fist” and then mod the climbing mechanic from SYM over so that you can climb the SmackDown stage in HCTP? 5. An attention to detail that I've always liked about SYM is how some wrestlers have shortened edits of their themes that trigger after they've won a match, like Chris Jericho and Triple H. It's a shame that this detail wasn't carried over to games succeeding SYM. Is it possible to mod this detail into later games? 6. In HTCP and games beyond, is it possible to mod out or even toggle the "red flashes" the occur every time a wrestler is busted open? Personally, I've always found them annoying.
Great updates you made to the game to incorporate the state of the WWF from 2001 to early 2002. I think they would have gone with those changes etc if the name change to WWE didn't happen in 2002.
Hey Scott. I just wanna say a lot of what you added sounds really good. (Everyone being draftable and title histories carrying over are amazing.) But I jusy have one question, is it possible to boost the number of slots in create a team/stable? In the older games creating larger factions like DX, Evolution & the nWo is a massive PITA due to the way you can only create 2 or three man teams. Honestly, even today, and I found myself filling all 27 slots rather quicky. I understand if it isn’t. 🙂
Hey does your SVR 2008 DE work with a CFW PS3? I’ll do whatever I have to do, even join Patreon, if I can play it on my PS3. You should drop a tutorial video of how to set up your creations.
I get too much satisfaction hearing "replacing a WWE logo with a WWF logo"
Word!!!
You’re the 🐐 bro

To be fair I didn't apply when they had openings also it was during the start of c19 so travel was a no no.
Huge fan of all these updates, by the time you're done the original will be obsolete
This is the first time I've heard of this project. This is AWESOME! Thank you for all of your hard work!
Welcome back! Would love more YT videos from you mate, thank you!
Thanks! I just moved so more soon and more frequently
The work that has gone into this project is amazing. WWF ny looks so cool!
That cover art is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ordered the physical version this week 🇨🇦 Can’t WAIT!
I think you've made the right choice for the Raw titantron, fwiw
💯
while it might not be timeline accurate, it looks perfect so not complains here
After playing no mercy for so long it's hard to go back to the smackdown games......
Here comes the pain gets all the credit for being the best Smackdown game but for me this was the best one.
Seeing KOTR having the correct tron at the end of the video! You add so much that even you forget to talk about it lol
this might have been the SYM that yukes wanted to make if it wasnt for the big changes in the wwe at the time
Scott you've gone above and beyond with all these updates and you're not even done 😵
This is awesome. Great work, SJ!
Everything here looks great Scott, I think you DID forget a few things you showed on patreon haha, Looking for ward to it.
Bro brought everything I originally wanted in SYM back 😩 I saw the Pre orders for the physical copy and imma order it when I get situated I’m just as hyped when I got the original copy in Fall of 2002
OMG 🤯🤯🤯 the nostalgia is real. Thank you bro!!!
This is so dope! Hope you finally blow up after all the years you've been grinding.
Looks absolutely amazing. I'm very interested to see how AI vs AI matches are gonna look!
God I miss that era
This looks dope bro!! They needa hire u to do more games! U should do here comes the pain next!
I've been waiting all day for this,I cannot wait to get this version
Wait this is real? What platform can I play this on??
I’ve been apart of your Patreon since 2019/2020 and I’m stoked for the new updates like this since I feel like this is what Smackdown just bring it was supposed to be
Can’t wait bro 🔥
I'm downloading on release date 100%. Amazing work! Also what is the background music? It sounds great for a chill while I edit 😁

Good stuff mate. Look forward to what's next.
i imagine that every video on SYM has been changed to represent late 2001-early 2002 moments
Part two for Rebuilding SVR 2007 anytime in the foreseeable future?
Not till this is out and done, svr 2008 update will be pretty soon after then 2007 then hctp some time in summer 25
@@ScottJay01 Alright thank you. Your Svr ‘08 DE is shaping up to being something great.
where can i download it ?@@ScottJay01
That's awesome. Looks like a fun time for sure. Toight.
how can i have the version
shut your maven definitive edition
Great stuff!
You’re so talented❤
Can you add the Wcw championships from the invasion angle? The tag titles, cruiserweight and US championships?
I did make all of them a year ago but there just isn't enough belt slots for them
Like the background music & the work that you do! What’s the song that plays in the background?
That Raw arena looks amazing!! 🔥
I like the fully loaded stage more each time I see it.
so the arenas might be from king of the ring 2001 to judgement day 2002?
also these arenas look totally natural
Yup thats right kotr01 to jd 02
@@ScottJay01 kotr 2001? you also changed the textures of that arena?
judgement day 2002 might be a good end because the ppv logo might had the wwf logo
i hope that you might make a video about SYM development and things that have changed a lot
How do we get our hands on this mod? cant wait to fire it up in my MX4!!!!
Is there a Way that i can but this, as a Physical ps2 game,.. including boxart/instruction booklet ?
Is there going to be blood
Most realistic looking wwe game on ps2 in my opinion. The way wrestlers are textured and lit just looks like real life.
What if you have the game already will just be updated
I wouldn't doubt that they locked the wrestlers out in Season mode to ensure you get the full story. A good chunk of the story wouldn't exist if nWo was split between shows or on the opposite show of yours
Can you made the option of playing chapionship mode without playing season mode ?
I wish but sadly not do able,however I just started work on something that makes title matches happen more frequently in season
@@ScottJay01 OK thanks for answer me and i like this video.
Mannnnn, this is dope!!!!! How can I download this?!?! I’m gonna subscribe to you because this is 🔥🔥🔥
I got to the end of the video and heard the release date!!! Can’t wait to get this!! 🔥
Pay for his patreon. It supports him and the great work he does!!
Would this run on an actual PS2? e.g via mx4sio
Yup all my stuff works on original hardware
I miss when wwe games were like this
Is it hard setting the game up for us to play? Like does the Patreon give us everything we need to play the game?
Yup should be super easy
Do you have to have a modded ps2 to get this physical copy to play? I thought there was a certain memory card you needed and that’s it?
Just fmb memcard is fine for physical
Will it be on the PS market? Plz tell me
Yes.
I had a few suggestions for add ons for this of possible
-old Smackdown arena
-wrestlemania x-seven arena
-2001 undertaker long hair
-hhh my time theme
-2000 rock hair
-road dogg
-Shane McMahon
Old sd arena is avaliable in the winter update/ physical edition which you can order on my patreon currently
would be good to put a download link here where else would you get the game
Maaaate, I need to get a wiggle on and sign up to the patreon! Excellent as always brother 👊
Welcome back!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Is it possible to add liscened music to fit the games aesthetic and time period or would you be sued?

P.S. Are you aware that there’s a faint _static_ sound in the background during 12:39 - 13:27?
how do i get this ?
Where can I get this
I’m new to the modded versions of these games. Where can I play them?
1:53 Would love to see what you made for this. Although it won't be used, which, while sad, is probably the right call.
Great updates you made to the game to incorporate the state of the WWF from 2001 to early 2002. I think they would have gone with those changes etc if the name change to WWE didn't happen in 2002.
I will be purchasing this on September 30th how do I do so?
Fantastic!
i love this
Is there a way for you to remove the table weapon under the ring for regular matches or matches with DQ? So that no one can spam this easy DW win?

Great work yet again. A question for the HcTP definitive edition. Will you be adding back in the legends too and Kane’s unmasked attire
Please tell me Y2J has the correct theme song on this edition along with The Hardy Boyz? Everything here looks amazing

Will this be available for ps4 ps5?
Love your work! How can I get svr 2008 DE and which patreon membership do I need?
How do i play this!!!!!!
By any chance did you add a Scott hall into this game
Can you also make a svr 2005 definitive edition mod please for 2003 to 2004 attires please
You should port the older smackdown games over to the original Xbox if it’s possible, that would be huge
I don't have a good enough base to port it over to the og xbox but all my games play on xbix on/s/x in dev mode!
Awesome when will this be available? I would like to play this on PCSX2
If you dont want psychical, Digital is available for $50 on the 30th or if your a regular patreon its part of your downloads
Is this really coming back for the ps5 ?
This is for modded ps2,ps3 and pc

How about the superstar points? Does it retained and carried over to next season?
Yup if you continue your title history then your points also carry over
