Get your league ROMs here ^^^^

Thanks guys! Pearate, since you answered first and are immediately available, you are in! HABS, you're next in bud, thanks for keeping in touch about the league

Welcome Pearate!

Playoffs are right around the corner! This will be updated over the next couple of weeks.

That's sick! Happy birthday bud!

Hey guys, I need a replacement coach for the Chicago team in Velocity League. The league is in its first season, and it is a draft league consisting of today's NHL players. There are 18 teams, 12 teams make the playoffs, and we are about halfway through the season. You will have time to get all of your games in. Let me know! Here is a link to the league forum, and to the standings page to see where we are at: http://forum.nhl94.com/index.php/forum/221-general-discussion/ http://nhl94online.com/html/standings.php?lg=33&sublg=GENS -Skip

Hey sonoffett, how did you fix your hamachi issue? Someone is having a similar problem...

Dcicon has notified me that he will not be able to catch up because he will not be available. It's too bad because he is one of the top players in the league. Sorry to lose you, Dcicon. Uncle Buck will step in tonight. Welcome, bud! -Skip

...due to not meeting checkpoints. Good luck to Ba55i5t!

Thanks for that input, I have another update coming and I may release that sooner rather than later because I didn't remove Kassian from Montreal :-D

Awesome job guys (especially Raph). Fantastic player cards! I need to learn that.

^Yes. We could try a full-rules tourney with the 2016 ROM. 7-minute periods or something so you have to really roll some line changes. Tough to do old 94 rosters and have a lot of quality teams and a good mix of skill for GMs, but maybe it could work haha

Ah, yes this makes sense. Buffalo is the key, and it is also the most confusing slot. It (seems to) usually goes Faceoff Music - PP Music - Goal Music, in that order, by the list in the earlier thread (see: Calgary). But, Buffalo (Slot # 4) uses their Goal Music as their Faceoff Music, which is why their Faceoff Music (hex 02C718) follows their PP music (hex 02C714) - because it is only identified as the Goal Music, used as Faceoff Music. So, for the Bruins, who occupy that spot in the 30-team ROM, we have to use the same Faceoff and Goal Music "Here we go Bruins, here we go..." (music code 02D6CA) for Faceoff and Goal. The confusing thing that made the list hard to decipher was Buffalo having one song, when they clearly had two, but Calgary being listed directly after Buffalo. Now, this makes perfect sense). CoachMac gets my vote for bud of the year for helping me try to perfect the 2016 ROM over the past 24 hours! UPDATE: I am not so sure about my original statement with the order of musics. I am sure about Buffalo's old slot, but something happened to the Chicago faceoff music when I changed their goal/PP musics.

I'll be posting an updated ROM today - fixed all of the music so that they match the teams. :-) Huge thanks to Coach Mac for his help, and also smoz and swos (and others) for the awesome notes on switching up the audio. Had some trouble, but Mac and the boys keep on proving why there is no other community like this one.

Huge help, CoachMac! I got the Blackhawks all set and should be able to fix at least teams 1-21 and team 26 (looks like old WPG position also occupies with old ANA/FLA/OTT, just as old NYR shares with old ASE/ASW). Thanks a lot for that push over the hill, definitely needed to see that pointer list to click hahaha. Thanks for you're help, bud! Now if I can figure out all of the goal music offsets/pointers, we'll be fully operational! -Skip

Awesome, thanks so much for this Coach Mac! I'll let you know if it works...I never saw that about the shared pointers and that may be my problem.

I tried that one but it isn't the right spot for Here Come the Blackhawks + Chicago in the ROM I have. Do you think it has something to do with the pointer? I am having a tough time figuring out that part.

Re-read my post. That is what I'm trying to do :-) Also this isn't the forum for that type of request.

Hahahahahahahahaha!!!

This is funny, because I've just started truly looking into fixing the faceoff music/goal music for teams that have been moved around for the 30-team ROM. Teams like Boston, Buffalo, Chicago and Montreal have very distinctive faceoff music, but they got thrown off when moved in the 30-team ROM. For example, I cannot figure out why Carolina still has Chicago's "Here Come the Blackhawks" faceoff music, and I am having a lot of trouble locating the offset to make the switches. I was able to successfully switch Boston and Buffalo's faceoff music for the correct ones, but cannot figure out where their goal music is located in offset hex editing. Please please please let me know if you figure out the mapping for teams in the 30-team ROM. My v6 is already a bit "corrupted" in the sense that I have moved some music pointers around to try and fix Boston, Buffalo, Calgary, Carolina and Chicago by moving them all up 1 spot (to account for adding Arizona in between Anaheim and Boston, which bumped all of the teams up one spot)

Hey guys, I am having trouble changing a few songs for the 30-team 2016 ROM. Carolina still has "Here Come The Blackhawks" as their music, and I cannot figure out which offset is for Chicago. Does anyone know which code/pointer is for Here Come the Blackhawks, and which offset hex is Chicago? If there is a fully corrected 30-team ROM, I'd love to be pointed in that direction :-) Additionally, Winnipeg has no music at all, very sad state of affairs at the MTS Centre. Anyone know how to locate and fix that one too? Thanks guys! Awesome work!! Your guidance has allowed for me to fix Boston and Buffalo's opening music, but I have not been able to locate their goal music offsets. -Skip I attached my current work-in progress ROM so anyone can look at the current code.

Hey guys, here is my mid-season update (V8/V7/V6) for the 2016 ROM. Update includes: *Tweaks to players (changes from V4 noted in the excel file 'chg' tabs) *Player additions (players name marked in yellow) and some subtractions (listed). *Edited certain attributes league-wide. I made a decent amount of changes to speed, checking, and defensive awareness. I also updated goalies quite a bit. Also updated player roughness (CPU shooting bias) for a more realistic type feel to the numbers, though it won't matter for us. The biggest update for V6/7/8: I had the chance to fix the faceoff music for teams (except Washington and Winnipeg). My next task is to figure out the locations of the goal musics, and then, my really ambitious task of figuring out how to add player cards for the 2016 ROM -Skip I should also note some additional info in the excel sheet. I include the "checking ability", a rating we use in Blitz and Velocity League to show how good a player is at checking based on the in-game code (uses weight and checking attribute to decide if a check is a pass/fail). I've added some overalls to show a player's offensive skill, defensive prowess, or goaltending ability. Just a guide for now Link to earlier ROM post: http://forum.nhl94.com/index.php/topic/17174-nhl16-the-ultimate-nhl-rom/ NHL16v8skip.zip NHL16v8.bin

Posting an update in a new thread...

Please add your name to the thread to join the league waitlist, and also make sure you are registered and on the waitlist here if you're new to the website: http://www.nhl94online.com/html/registration.php?lg=33 http://www.nhl94online.com/html/waiting-list.php Waitlist: 1. Lupz (VHL3 First In) 2. Hokkee 3. GusIslander (inactive) 4. pfs_80 (inactive) Legacy Waitlist Order: Lupz, Riboot, Wittgenstein and WallyWojo. Chaos can join anytime he'd like since he does so much for the league already. Note: There is a possibility to expand for season 2 to 20 teams (for season 3), but not sure on that yet as I want to make sure all of the other teams are cool with expansion. Also, we've had to replace 3 GM's, so expansion may not be in the cards right away. Discussion needed. But, with the depth of players in the draft pool, this league could easily handle 26+ teams. Get on the waitlist to grab a spot!

Hey guys, It is sad to hear that Wally is retiring from NHL'94. Probob will take over Winnipeg once Chaos adds the switch on the website. I have already added Probob to the AIM group. Thanks again for being a great bud, Wally! And special thanks to Probob for taking over on short notice! Welcome to the league bud. -Skip
