This is exactly what I was looking for. Figured it was something along those lines but didn't recall anything regarding 1-7 other than "don't change #1". Now to put it to practice. Dithering away...

So I've been plugging away with Tile Molester and making some slow but steady progress. I've got the banners down and thought that I was having some success with the startup logos but ran into an unexpected issue with team logos changing colors depending on opponent? Apologies in advance if this has been covered elsewhere but there is a LOT of info out there and it is spread out among many threads whose titles may not really clue you in to the tips and tricks within. Couple questions:
1. Any idea what could be causing color changes in the startup logos? Logos are fine in many cases but colors sometimes change depending on who the opponent is.
2. Is there any shortcut to capture the colors in the original logo and transpose them into the palette or is that a manual process? I'm importing 48x48, 16-color bmp files.
I have watched Slapshot's videos and am using Wboy's screenshots. I feel like I'm missing something when it comes to palettes however...

Thanks again Mitch. Looking forward to giving them a shot.

I input the women's teams for kicks. Not easy with such a limited sample size and trying to bridge the difference between US/Canada and Korea... Fire away.

"My" rom is a blatant ripoff of the Vancouver 2010 rom with just the rosters of the 22 countries participating in the WJC and Division I updated and rated, still has Vancouver logos, splash screens, etc. Definitely not comfortable uploading it. I'm late to NHL94 modding so I have been using that as a training ground as I catch up on so many others' great work and research, but unfortunately I seem to have hit the wall when it comes to the graphics side.

Don't mean to hijack Mitch's thread but I'm more than willing to enter data for any previous Olympics or WJC if a shell were to appear...

Out of curiosity, how long did it take to create the shell ROM?

I used Corky & Slaphsot's Vancouver 2010 rom to create the 2018 World Juniors for my own personal enjoyment. Despite fooling around with Tile Molester for what seems like ages I just don't have the graphics knowledge/tutoring to put together a polished final product. Definitely interested to see what you come up with.
1977 World Junior Championships

A huge thank you to Slapshot67 for doing all the work to make this look presentable.
1977 - the year of Star Wars, The Clash, the Atari 2600 and the first officially IIHF sanctioned World Junior Championships. Following three unofficial tournaments, the IIHF recognized the relatively obscure event which has become one of international hockey's signature events and the first time on stage for many of the NHL's future stars. The round-robin series was hosted in Banska Bystrica and Zvolen, Czechoslovakia to modest crowds.
The Soviet Union swept the field to win the gold medal and remained undefeated through four years of competition. The Soviet team featured future Hall of Famers Sergei Makarov and Viacheslav Fetisov in addition to goaltender Sergei Mylnikov, who later became the first Russian goaltender in the NHL - albeit for 10 horrible games with the Nordiques.
Canada won silver, however were not represented by a true national team but by the St. Catharines Fincups, winners of the previous year's Memorial Cup. The Fincups roster was supplemented with players from several other OHA teams. Of the 19 members of the Canadian squad, 17 would eventually appear in the NHL with Brad Marsh, Rob Ramage, Ron Duguay, Dave Hunter, John Anderson, Al Secord, Ric Seiling, Willie Huber, Dwight Foster and tournament leading scorer Dale McCourt all logging over 500 contests.
Czechoslovakia took the bronze and featured Peter Ihnacak, who would later defect to play for the Maple Leafs, and three-time Stanley Cup winner Jiri Hrdina.
Team Finland would eventually send a pair of blue liners to the NHL in Risto Siltanen and Reijo Ruotsalainen. Sweden was backstopped by future Flyer Pelle Lindbergh and also included NHLers Mats Naslund and Bengt-Ake Gustafsson.
The American squad contained 9 players that would make it to the NHL. Only one, Richie Dunn, would have a significant career (483 games) and 5 of the 9 would play fewer than 10 games.
West Germany and Poland were added to the tournament in 1977 for the first time. Neither roster included any future NHL talent, although the West Germans would finish ahead of the Americans in the standings. The Poles lone point came in a tie contest against the USA and they would be relegated for the 1978 edition of the WJC.
Speaking of 1978, this would be the debut of some guy named Wayne...
Thanks again to Slapshot67 and to all of the others who have posted their knowledge and already asked the stupid questions so that I didn't have to...
