So I've been working on 2 new roms off and on for a while. I presume most here have seen my deadline series, which is 7 roms for a 13 year period. I began thinking that was overkill, and really what interested me was capturing a team in a specific era rather than a particular year. To that end, I decided to make 2 new roms; one to cover 2000-2004 (until the lockout), and 2005-2010 (after the lockout). In terms of rosters, it's 30 teams, with 9 forwards, 6 dmen, and 2 goalies each. Obviously the player selections for each team is a little subjective, but the idea was to represent core players. This means the star players who spent a significant amount of time there during the relevant period, or depth players who were there a long time. It also means the same player may appear on 2 teams in the same rom if he was a big part of two teams. It also makes the teams more even than taking a given season. I could probably pick at these roms for a little while longer bug hunting and ratings tweaking, but I decided to put them up now. (Download at bottom) Preview; -Splash screen -Title screens -Player pictures for every starter -Scoreboard logo based on NHL 94 box art -Clockwise sprite patch for improved uniforms -Anniversary and alternate logos used as center ice when possible. Other features -Goalie trapezoid for post-lockout rom -Other hacks such as assist fix, weight/checking bug fix, halved speed burst effect -All team ratings (home/away, pp/pk...etc) set to average I guess that's it for now. Hope you enjoy! Comments welcome. NHL94 - 2000-4.bin NHL94 - post-lockout.bin
