  1. Hi Everyone! So, I took my recently released NHL94 "2018 edition" ROM and converted it to 3-on-3 play. It's basically the same ROM with a couple notable changes/updates. Here's what's different from my other ROM: * When playing with line changes, the CPU gets the lines wrong. I'm not sure why. The CPU treats the CHK line as the #1 scoring line. The #1 scoring line is treated like the second scoring line. And, in turn, the 2nd scoring line is treated as a checking line. That said, I re-ordered them in NOSE. The CHK line will default to start each game that is simmed (as several folks like to sim games) but, it will contain the #1 players (Crosby, McDavid, Ovechkin, Doughty, E. Karlsson, etc.). Keep this in mind whether you do auto or manual line changes. If you are player 1, it defaults starts scoring line 1. If your opponent is the CPU, you default start with scoring line 1 and the CPU default starts with the CHK line. If you are playing head to head, both you and your opponent will default start with scoring line 1. If you use NLC, it's a non-issue as that will default the NLC line. * The PP lines will have 4 skaters to have a man advantage. If your team gets two men in the penalty box, unfortunately, it will be a 4-on-2. Can't do anything about that...the good news is, penalties, in this ROM, are only a minute in length (unlike the normal 2:00 length used in my 5-on-5 ROM). * Line combos/pairings are "best guess" in some cases. I did my best to figure out many of them by checking OT boxes score info or from what I remember seeing in person. Many are accurate (e.g - Couturier with Konecny & Provorov which was very successful this year). PP and PK combos are all guesses based on the personnel used for 5 on 4 powerplays. * Skater speed has been increased by 1 for all D and FWDs for this particular ROM. While I prefer the speed of my 5-on-5 ROM, the increase does add to the excitement of 3-on-3 and allows for more potential breakaways. * By default, offsides is turned off. Feel free to turn it back on if you like... * KNOWN BUG: Player portraits can only be viewed in the main team selection screen. In any other screen/view, if you allow the portraits to cycle, it will eventually freeze the game. To learn more about the other edits/features of this ROM, including Playoff structure and ratings logic, you can review my summary for my other ROM (link below). It addresses the known "Winnipeg Freeze Bug". I welcome any feedback on this ROM. It's not perfect but, it is still fun to play (if you need a break from 5-on-5 play). If you notice any bugs or errors not mentioned, please let me know. Cheers! NHL94 2018 3-on-3 v4.zip

  2. I am in Toronto, and this Ice Storm is for real! A friend here just posted on Facebook about a utility pole falling into his house and sparks flying. Power is out for his neighborhood now. They mentioned this storm a couple days ahead, and for once, they got it right.
