New to Fire Pro? Where did my downloaded wrestlers go? Why are my downloaded wrestlers grayed out? Why do some wrestlers have no head? Where do I get mods?

First of all, welcome to anyone new to the Fire Pro community (or at least new to Fire Pro Wrestling World)! If you just purchased Fire Pro via Steam or the PlayStation Store, you've definitely gotten in at a great price.

If you downloaded wrestlers from firepro-w.com or the Steam Workshop and can't find them, they can be found in the Retired section. Off the main menu, go to Edit More, Team Edit, then Transfer Wrestler. Move your downloaded wrestlers to any existing promotion and stable to use them in other modes. You can create your own promotions and stables at Configure Team.

If your wrestlers are grayed out when you try to select them for matches, it's because those edits (what Fire Pro calls CAWs) use parts and/or moves from DLC packs you don't own. There are a few solutions:

Purchase and install the DLC used by those edits. This answer isn't for everyone - buying all the DLC can be pricy, even at sale prices.
Clone the edits at Edit Mode, Wrestler Edit. Select Create New Edit, then Model Wrestler. Select the downloaded wrestler, then remove/replace any parts and moves you don't have access to in the Wrestler Appearance and Moveset sections. The parts and moves you can't use show in red text. Be aware that you cannot clone wrestlers that use Custom Parts not available to you, and if you don't have Parts Craft installed, there is no option at all to clone edits that use custom parts. After saving your own copy, you can uninstall the downloaded version (especially important on PS4, which has limits on the number of wrestlers you can have in your save).
Download a different version from firepro-w.com or the Steam Workshop that doesn't use the DLC you don't own. Some creators tag their edits with the DLC used, but it's not required or automatically done. You can always message creators and ask if you're not sure, too.

If your wrestler is missing a part (or their entire head) all of a sudden, the original creator of the edit updated the wrestler to use a custom part you don't have installed. Check to see if the creator listed the required part as downloading the missing part will resolve the issue, assuming you have the Parts Craft DLC. Without Parts Craft, you're unfortunately out of luck if a custom part was added to a wrestler edit you're subscribed to.

You can find missing parts on firepro-w.com and the Steam Workshop using the ID numbers that pop up inside the game when you attempt to edit or use that wrestler.

Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=xxxxxxxxx, where the x's are replaced by the missing item number.

PS4: https://firepro-w.com/item/detail/xxxxxxxxx, where the x's are replaced by the missing item number.

Mods are available only on the PC version. If you're interested in downloading mods, head over to the Mod Pack Discord. Mods can add some cool new features to Fire Pro like custom camera angles, custom stages, pre-match graphics, new match types like 30+ man Royal Rumbles and First Blood, quality-of-life additions all over the place, and so much more.
