Just curious as to if anyone has tried making a new NHL 94 game from the EA NHL lineup. What I mean is has anyone tried to take for instance, NHL 94's gameplay, 95-98's season mode, 97's skills comp. etc... and combined them to make their own ultimate version of 94??? I'm sure that I'm not the only one who wants a season mode in 94!!! And judging by what people on this board have already accomplished with editing the roms, it can't be that difficult to pull off, can it? After all, the original game was built by people using a dated Genesis engine, not rocket scientists.
While I'm on the subject of adding to the game, I would like to knw if any of the following has been tried or achieved.
-- Blood in 94 when players get injured
-- Ability to score at anytime, even when the play is whistled dead (to mess with my friends!!)
-- Adding the shootout to a regular game, after the overtime
-- Changing the A.I. to make the computer tougher to play against (I did notice that when I edit the puck and make it smaller, it was harder to save with manual goalie, and surprisingly harder to score...any thoughts?)
-- Injuries to the goalie
--computer changes goalie after too many goals (this may be wrong, but I think that the "unknown" attribute using NOSE for goalies in NHL98 might have something to do with this, as when I changed it to "0" alot of the goalies were pulled after a single goal; but alas, the same thing happened when I changed it to "6", so if anyone can verify, I'd be much obliged)
--any other graphic hacks to sprites and rink ( I'm making a league based on my ball hockey league, so I'm looking to make gymnasium type flooring, an empty arena, and an orange hockey ball for realism...I guess making the sprites look like they're "running" as opposed to "skating" would be out of the question)
--This one is for 93: one timers, and manual goalies
--Checking a player through the glass
That's it for now, I peviously asked about adding fighting to 94 and being able to break all of the glass behind the net with a shot, so if you have any updates, please post. Thanks for reading.
p.s. I'm a noob when it comes to editing the game, just starting out. Don't take this post as if I want people to do all this work for me, I'm just wondering if anyone has tried any of the above. If not, and you're interested in trying, by all means go ahead, I'm just interested in all the progress of changing the game so far. All these posts have been really helpful. Thanks again.
