Is there a way to replace the title song in 94 with another track, possibly the title track of the original nhl hockey?

F'in awesome! I was going to start a thread impatiently requesting the status of NOSE and a release date, now I don't have to do that & look like an impatient prick. btw, will the "bigger rosters" allow you to use more teams or just more players? I would assume it's just more players, but I wanted to be sure

Hell yeah, a Subbuteo soccer fan. I played that with my brother all the time growing up.

I'm poor

There's already a thread for this. http://www.nhl94.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5

I'm old.

Just thought I'd comment on cool new look of the boards. I like the in-game pics. Keep up the good work.

Man, I was really optimistic about this project & I was so determined to show that us modders & emulation geeks aren't freeloaders, that I was going to buy the game just to show that I appreciated the thought of EA for us 94 fans, but what would it get me? I already have the real 94 cartridge. Why would I want this fake roster ripoff? I expected something equal to the original, I hoped for more, I got less.

Yeah, but... but... Pronger's no longer a Blue.

I finally beat the posted record of 34 goals in a game. I had tied the record twice, once with Buffalo (a long time ago, before I came to these boards) & once recently with Boston. Today, I posted up a 40-1 victory with Boston against Buffalo. Here's the specifics: Rules: Penalties on no offsides Auto line changes 10 minute periods Played on real Sega Genesis system, not emulator Stats: 70 shots 173 body checks 5/5 on the power play, using 5 shots in 1:09 3/3 on breakaways A surprising only 1/3 on one-timers (this has to be an all-time low for me) Only 8 completed passes the whole game (also a low for me) 49 faceoffs won Vladamir Ruzicka 16 pts. (5 goals, 11 assists) Dmitri Kvartlanov 9 goals Adam Oates missed almost the entire 2nd period with an injury. We still scored 18 in the 2nd & Oates still finished with 8 pts & the #3 star of the game. Crowd peak level 149 dB, average of 119 dB Unfortunately I don't have a video card for my computer, but I captured the end results screens on my camcorder & will send them when I get a chance to use my father-in-laws computer with a video card.

See, I'm one of the few people who likes Lemieux. I score tons of goals with him. As far as goalies go, Sean Burke seems to do quite well, moreso when he's playing against me. Nice avatar by the way

Underrated: Gord Murphy - plenty of things he can't do, but he can check & shoot, which for me means unassisted transition goals. Tomas Sandstrom - best pull up slap shooter in the game Adam Graves - consistant hat trick producer on the 2nd line Jeff Brown - Great offensive defenseman, defense is good enough Overrated: Cam Neely - by far, the most overrated player. No other mid-80s player has a tougher time scoring a hat trick Brian Leetch - All-Star or not, I can't score with him Jaromir Jagr - Goes on insufferable scoring droughts. Lower rated Kevin Stevens scores a lot more. Al Iafrate - Has a killer shot, but can't seem to get in position to use it

I have a nyko air flo & I love it. It's the controller with the fan inside to keep your hands cool, although I didn't even get it because of the that reason. The reason I got it is because it is the only controller I could find without webbing between the up down left & right on the D-pad. Plus you can customize the controller's many buttons very well, it's ergonomic & the fans really do help keep your hands cool.

I like either NOSE or backcheck. I can't decide between them. I also prefer the old school, blocky puck to a rounded one.

It is a huge step in the right direction. I just fear that they'll figure that this is the end of it. That instead of enhancing it next year with player editor & trades they'll essentially say "Allright, we gave you 94 again in 06, so in 07 we'll just have the regular game & if you want to play 94, just buy last year's game."

What would be considered proof? I don't have the in-game scoreboard shot or scoring breakdown, but I could get a shot at the team card showing the record for goals scored for that team.

I'm still getting this problem even after downloading the new bios.

I am hoping to someday edit 94 with new rosters, but with 1 twist to what I've seen people here do. I want to go beyond a player's traditional 0-6 ratings scale. In other words, I want to have players' default attributes to be a more true 0-100 scale like their adjusted attributes (after hot/cold calculations are taken into effect). I figure the easiest way to do this would be to control the hot/cold setting. I am assuming that the computer's selection for a certain game's hot/cold players is completely random. Is there a way to avoid this randomization & select a hot/cold player? I figure it would be hard to rework the game's code, so I thought the easiest way to do it would be through save states. The problem is, how do I isolate the code in the save state that points to who is hot/cold? Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there another way adjust the ratings scale besides tinkering with the hot/cold setting? If not, how can I control who is hot or cold through save states or otherwise?

Sounds like a cool project. Keep us posted. I may buy a Sega CD just to play it.

I would probably say Patrick Roy. The best skater, for my style is Ray Bourque. I do a lot of mid-range pull up slapshots & bourque just doesn't miss those & to boot he's a hell of a defender.

Oh, I understand. The penalty shot after a period doesn't work correctly. I thought your were saying that there should not be any penalty shots after a period ends at all. I use the Genesis version, so that would explain why I wasn't familiar with #1 & #2.

Just a little nitpicking, but I think the speedburst with puck could be kind of cheap. Not being able to have a speed burst with the puck allows the defense to catch up or close in on the puck. Giving a speed burst to the guy with the puck would disrupt the balance of the game. Can you imagine how many breakaways there would be?

Why shouldn't there be penalty shots after the period ends? I've never experienced that.

Thanks again Evan. The ROM from the website you provided was what I was looking for. The ratings aren't what I'd hoped & could use some tweaking, but tweaking I can do.

How about a real 1-100 ratings system instead of a 0-6 ratings system for player attributes? It would be hard to impliment, but would definitely help if there was a franchise mode. Stat building in a franchise mode wouldn't be that much fun if your guy only increments 1 or 2 points in his career.
