I'm going to try and initiate this as soon as I can, which likely means in weeks or months.

Okay - version 1.1 has been released... VERSION 1.1 Updates - Boston Bruins logo updated to era correct version - Player sticks/Skate blades changed to white in order to fix colour issues on ice logos - Shayne Corson and Stephane Richer portrait photos flipped back to correct spots - New York Rangers photo portraits updated HNIC 90-91 Season v1.1 (NHL 94).zip

From someone (me) who has been watching for a while, and now starting to ask questions and interact, I completely agree. Sometimes it’s difficult to ask the right questions in the right way. I grew up with Genesis and it’s incredible and fun to see what you can do now with programming and coding.

FWIW I think this (and more types of behind the curtain threads) could be a really cool way for us all to learn and also maybe get some new people into this wonderful hobby.

They've done this with Pro Evolution Soccer... some guy created a companion app (incomplete at the moment) which runs on the side (he called it 'MatchUp')... it's a GUI interface (which sits in the background when playing the actual game) that creates a save file for PES and once the game is played inside PES it pulls the result in... Such an interface would need to offer a way of simulating results accurately and realistically however. But the possibilities of creating seasons/tournaments etc are endless. Like a full management sim but with the gameplay of the classic we all know and love

I've thought about the exact same thing. If you built a standalone season/dynasty program that creates a schedule and gives you the option of playing/simming the game by jumping to a save state matchup where you can take it from there... the issue is creating that save state AFTER you've finished the game and extracting the stats to go back into the program and fill out the necessary tables to track the season stats. I've thought a lot about it, tbh...

Just hopes and dreams. This is what you get for putting out such good stuff.

I played the demo for this at PAX East yesterday. It was fun. I didn't try out the story mode too much but the 2v2 and 3v3 multiplayer was fun. The goalies are just flat and pivot left and right. It was still tough to score. The skating was fluid, and the checking was fun.
