Hi All - I have posted the final versions of my 2024-25 season ROMs (UHC and Mammoth versions). I have updated the files to have this year's playoffs brackets. I also included brackets for the 16 teams that didn't make it (aka - "The Golf Course Brackets"). I kept the original "regional brackets" as mentioned in the OP as some folks have enjoyed them. So, there are several scenarios/options for users. I updated the players and added a few returning players and, some notable rookies. I did not add Gabriel Landeskog to Colorado. It was nice to see him play an AHL game (after such a long absence) but as his immediate future is uncertain at the moment, I left him out. For more details on the ROMs, please see the original post. Make sure, if you are interested in downloading the ROM(s), to download one noted as "Playoffs Version." If you notice any mistakes (jersey numbers, handedness, spelling, etc.), please feel free to let me know. Lastly, thank you to everyone who downloaded the file, shared feedback or just stopped by to say a kind word or two. I appreciate it! Cheers! -Sauce

Howdy! For folks, like me, who enjoy playing a 3v3, I am posting such a version inspired by my NHL94 2025 rom and EA's "Threes." There is plenty to read below, and I realize that some may just want to get to the file. If anything, please read the “Important Notes” and skip the rest for a rainy day if you’re in a hurry. IMPORTANT NOTES: * There are 4 Period Lengths: 1, 5, 10 and Sudden Death. Credit for 3v3 OT Sudden Death goes to @Sean. He came up with the concept for his NHL Jam series (check it out, under GENS Roms, when you can). NOTE: to make it happen, as each period in this mode is zero seconds, select Sudden Death and then click Start Game > Resume Game > Resume Game > Resume Game and viola! You’ll be in sudden death OT for 5 minutes. * Due to how the game must be edited in the Hex Code, the checking line, when you play with "line changes on", becomes the top line ("Scoring Line 1”) to start each period. So, I renamed the checking line to say Ln.1 (with the Scoring Line 1 forwards and D) when editing in-game. The original Scoring 1 (Ln1) and Scoring Line 2 (Ln2) remain as such/intended. The in-game line editor and team roster view, when line changes are on, sort as Ln1, Ln2 and Ln1 for the 3 lines. Just keep that in mind when you do in-game changes. * I use the same PP and PK lines, for each instance, so I renamed them to PP and PK instead of PP1/PP2 and PK1/PK2. MORE ABOUT THE ROM: (for those curious) * 32 Teams including the Utah Hockey Club. * Each team has 5 forwards, 3 D-men and 2 goalies to choose from when editing lines. I picked those most commonly used in OT. Feel free to change the pairings as you see fit. * The game features the ability to do 4v3 powerplays. If you want to do so, you must play with penalties ON (except offsides) and play with line changes ON. It will stay as 3v3 if you play with NLC. * As with previous versions of 3v3 that I created, all skaters (minus goalies) have the position of D so that you can select whoever you want for your 3v3 combos or when you are on a 4v3 powerplay. You want 3 forwards or 3 D-men, have at it. * Penalties are 1 min in length. * You can now edit/update PP units in the game. In the past, because I would only show one Dman, if I had a second on the PP point, you couldn't see them in the Line Editor. You would have to download NOSE to see them and edit accordingly. To remedy it, I simply show 1 D and 3 wingers. This way, you can edit one of the 4 within the game. * Injuries are disabled using the hack @chaos provided on 8/30/24 (In the Gens How-To & Reference section of this site). * Every player has a hit/checking ranking of 1 and an aggression of 0. While there will still be hits and penalties, there are less than a 5v5 rom. KNOWN BUGS: (in case you notice one) * WSH/WPG Freeze Bug if you cycle player cards, on the Team Selection page, for both Washington and Winnipeg. If you use Kega Fusion, as an emulator, it will not freeze. * Player Cards are broken and will freeze due to how lineups are two missing players, on ice, per team. * If your team has two players penalized, the powerplay becomes 4 on 2. However, since penalties are only 1 min in length, it shouldn't be a big deal. It adds to the excitement. LOL * If you like to watch intermissions of other game highlights, they are also 3v3 format but, there is a "ghost" player who appears at the home team's 1st and 3rd period blue line (bottom right). It does nothing but stand still and players will skate through him. It is likely due to this ROM having 3 skaters (per team) as opposed to 5. Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers! -Sauce Original Version: NHL94 2025 3v3.bin Trade Deadline Version: NHL94 2025 3v3 Trade Deadline Version.bin

Yah I guess the hack was meant to be used on a fresh rom with the old rink that doesnt have the behind the rink tiles. Lesson learned 😁 Thank you soo much! Everything is looking great! 👌🏻 Very much appreciated. 😁 The red sticks and faces will become their signature now 😉 they'll match the penalty referees face 🙄 Thank you soo much! Everything is looking great! 👌🏻 Very much appreciated.

Hi All, A rom that I wanted to work on, for a while, is an update to the original/classic. A 1994 post trade deadline roster/playoffs edition, if you will. But, I also wanted it to have some of the look and feel of the original. It's important to note that some other folks have had a run at this concept rom, so I am not a pioneer. However, there are things that I wanted to do differently or, perhaps, be the first to do to the classic version. So, below is what you need to know about this rom. THE ROM * This is was created using WBOY’s 30 team rom. * It has the weight bug fix applied to it. I can also provide a version without it if requested (PM me). * The rom contains the 26 teams from the 1993-94 season plus the 1993 (Campbell & Wales) and 1994 (Eastern and Western) all-star teams. * It has the Clockwise helmet/sprite patch AND the original goalie crease, faceoff circles and no trapezoid. It does have coaches on the bench, officials in the penalty box area and the new red goal light graphics. A little of the old and a little of the new. NOTE: If you apply the helmet/sprite patch to any rom, it automatically assigns that rom the new/modern goalie crease and trapezoid. So, it had to be undone in this case. SPECIAL THANKS GOES TO JKline3 WHO HELPED "RESET" THE ROM TO HAVE THE ORIGINAL RINK LAYOUT USING HIS JEDI POWERS! He is a good soul who said he didn't want/need any credit. Well, too bad, you're getting it. You helped me with that particular request so that I could focus on everything else and make this happen. Thanks homie! * Unlike my recent/current season roms, I didn’t use the Smozoma patch for the edit lines rating bug/3 stars fix for this rom. I want to leave that up to folks to do themselves if they want it added in vs leave it like the original. * Unlike the original version, each team now has a structure of 14 forwards, 8 dmen and 2 goalies (with the exception of the all-star teams). THE PLAYERS * Much like my recent/current season roms, I added actual headshots of each NLC player. None have helmets or masks on, in their portraits. You get to see just how ugly these guys are and how bad the hair styles were back then (see Jagr, for example). I went with images circa 1992-1995. This was quite a chore to find these as the online images are mostly low rez scans. I did my best to clean them up. * Player Attributes are based off of end-of-season stats for the 1993-94 season. I edited all 624 players in one way or another. My 0-6 tier structure for attributes is very close to the original rom as far as distribution. I kept a side by side comparison spreadsheet when doing edits. * Like my modern era/current season roms, shot accuracy and pass accuracy are based on “per game” stats, not season % (as there is no season mode). Offensive awareness is based on points per game. Unlike my recent/current season roms, this version is strictly based on 1993-94 stats. I didn’t do a 3 year average as I do with my modern era ROMs. * Rosters are post-trade deadline. * As Cam Neely and Pat Lafontaine, to name a few, didn’t play in the 1994 playoffs, due to injuries, they are not in the active line-ups if you use line changes. They are, however, in the 5v5 NLC mode. * Several missing players and some rookies have been added. A name like Nathan Lafayette may not mean much to you but to many Ranger fans he made many of our hearts stop, in the third period of game 7 of the Finals, when he “hit the post!” He was not in the original version. THE TEAMS * Teams are ranked by the order of how they finished for 1993-94. Same goes for OFF and DEF team ratings as well as PP, PK, Home and Away. You can review these by using EARE. * Lines and d-pairings are confirmed as having been used, at some point, during the final months of the 1993-94 season and/or playoffs. A lot of research went into this detail which included watching a ton of old game footage. Feel free to change them as you see fit. * While jersey layouts don't mirror the actual versions, in several cases, the colors that I used are pretty close to the official team colors. I used two websites that provide official team RGB colors, per season, so that I could match them up (as much as possible) in NOSE. Helmets, as mentioned earlier, are corrected due to the patch. THE PLAYOFF BRACKETS * I included the playoff brackets for 1993-94. I also created a second set of brackets that include the ten teams that didn’t make it into the playoffs. THE ART * Center ice and team selection logos are the official team logos for the 1993-94 season. Unlike the original, the center ice logos are NOT stretched to add more detail. They are they official sized logos. * New title screen art. Hmmmm... I wonder why I chose this particular image? I hope that you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed working on it. It was fun to relive this special season. If you see any mistakes, please let me know. Cheers!
