Gilmour always lights it up with/against all of us. I've just played against Dan The Man, being his team Maple Leafs, and I just received a goal from Doug.

Doug Gilmour, Wayne Gretzky, Teemu Selanne, Jaromir Jagr, Theoren Fleury and Mats Sundin. No order. I just played NHL97 and from yesterday I started playing NHL94.

Thank you. The intention of the post is going further than that. The information is good, but what is important for me is that those players should have their suitable attributes. Thanks CamKneely2. I have created an excel file. If you feel ready, I can send it to you. It's a heavy work. Your mission is refill every empty cell with values between 50 (minimum) and 99 (maximum), in every parameter (FIELD GOAL, 3 POINTS, OFF. REBOUNDS, SPEED, AGILITY....) corresponding to every player, and trying to be as realistic as possible. In this file there are 14 teams. 2 of them are marked in red (Argentina and Brazil) because I have already done it. Once you finish filling in this file, I will send you the others 15 teams in order to be filled in as well. Also you can see the players that are marked in green are part of the starting line-up.

A few days ago I started a project of hacking NBA Live 97 from Sega Genesis. I will convert it into FIBA World Cup (no year) with up-to-date rosters based on the event and performances of the 2019 FIBA World Cup in China . What I have done until now is modify the names of the teams, insert a few logos and modify three rosters (for Spain, Argentina and Brazil). It is a project I am working slowly and I want it finished before summertime. I have to recognise I don't watch too much basketball since 2009. So, what I need for this project is someone who was an expertise on international basketball: Must know most of the players. Players main attributes. Players Strenghts and Weaknesses. Concerning I want a very realistic game, I want realistic attributes and skills of the players. Below there is a list of the national teams that there will be in the hack (ordered by FIBA ranking): 1. USA 2. Spain (finished) 3. Australia 4. Argentina (finished) 5. Serbia 6. France 7. Greece 8. Lithuania 9. Czech Rep. 10. Brazil (finished) 11. Russia 12. Italy 13. Poland 14. Croatia 15. Turkey 16. Puerto Rico 17. Slovenia 18. Germany 19. Dominican Rep. 20. Venezuela 21. Canada 22. Nigeria 23. New Zealand 24. Montenegro 25. China 26. Angola 27. Tunisia 28. Japan 29. Ivory Coast See attached the following screen captures: Thanks in advance. Best, TA Marcos

Regarding the issues I found hacking the rom. 1. There is no possibility to add the extra two teams without the "sacrifice" of others two. 2. EA Sports and Renegades teams contains repeated tiles in their prematch logos and names. That's why I had to insert as "CZ REP." and "FINLAND_" (That _ is part of the L) 3. I corrected CHECH REP as CZECH REP. I know that was an issue. In that graphic text there is a Z, but it is not showed when you type Z on hex. The Hex code for the Z for that graphic is "29." 4. I had to look after the prematch logos. Because of the limitation of 16 colors in that screen, every team MUST use the same palette. If you modify a palette of a determined team you can see the logo as local team OK, but being visitant not. Both logos depend on the local team palette. Best, TA Marcos

Oh I understood the ice logo was black and the kit was red. The solution is very easy. Anyway, I am going to send you a private email with that modification of that logo and you can upload it here or wherever you want. I did already on my site. Best, TA Marcos

So, Canada's ice logo is red or black? And first kit is red or black besides white?

OK. Let's go to the party. https://ta-marcos-translations.blogspot.com/2020/04/nhl-97-best-national-hockey-teams.html#more

I guess you modified with a tool like Hivepal. If you modified one color, those colors that are shared are modified too. I will modify the logo also. Gimme a small amount of time, I am finishing the hack

I guess I am going to start to ask for money for working in all these stuffs....

Hi Thornton, Checking the way is programmed as follows below, there is a possibility to include Czech Republic and Finland, BUT you should "sacrifice" two teams instead: The solution is as simple as going to the "No cheats" area in the ROM and use the pointers of Czech Republic and Finland wherever you want. So it is up to you, if you want to go ahead or not. If it yes, let me know which two teams do you want to remove from original game. Best, TA Marcos

Hi Thornton, I got something similar for FIFA: Increase or decrease the number of teams in every domestic league. In this case, being this a cheat I may make something else besides modifying 1byte-value. I will check and let you know. Best, TA Marcos

That repeating sounds like crowd chants are programmed. It is possible to insert a sound to be repeatead as much as you can, but what is the point of that? There is no need to enlarge a rom for it, that's why that is programmed. I hope I can solve those questions. Best, TA Marcos

Update until now: SWEDEN at 100% RUSSIA at 100% - I need to correct a graphic error that duplicate a couple of tiles in the main logo. CZECH REP. - I have checked on the screen before the game start, there is no way to add the "Z." I checked the graphics for that letter and the Z was not there. I modified the X which is useless on that screen. I will take a look later on. FINLAND - Working on it. I think by tomorrow I will finish the whole thing. From now, have a look to the screens captures I made: Best, TA Marcos

Thanks for the quick answer. I don't know anything at all about NHL players and team performances. So what I suggest is me being in charge of the graphic and sound part: Look after the details of the logos and graphics names on the menus and in the ice. If you want any extra screen in the game I can assemble that. Regarding the sound, players voices, crowd reaction, I am able to modify that. Anyway the main idea is to fix the logos of the national hockey teams and their names on the menus and ice logos also. The rest is a heavy work, and being just a small and interesting update, this is enough for a good work. I will get in touch with you soon. Best, TA Marcos Translations
