So I take it this isn't possible :-(

*update* finished 16 teams. Hey, so by no means did I make this thread to preach my methods of making my rom, rather just giving advice, if wanted. I don't feel how I've gone about making the ratings is the "correct" way, or is better than anyone elses, just thought it was a good method, and the group of friends I play with locally (high school buddies, on a game doctor) also agree that the ratings are fair. So, after spending some time checking around, I found a few websites to help me make teams with fairly accurate ratings. After making a team, I'd go into the rom, make the team I just completed home and away, and make minor tweaks until I feel the players rating is accurate to what I know/have read about that player. I also created the teams to be fairly on par with eachother, while not making every team identical. The best teams in the game, are still the best teams in the game, but it isn't like NHL 94's ratings where if you chose Anaheim everyone on your team would be a 50... Anywho, due to the fact it took about an hour to make each team, I've only done 16 teams. So, use it as a tool, use it for fun, or just completely ignore it... Just don't tell me it sucks, because this is for me and my buds, and we don't care . Feel free to complete the rom as well. So, first things first I'd use this website to construct the team: http://www.capgeek.com/depth_charts.php?team_id=22 making the top line the top 3 players in the editor, the second line the next 3, and so fourth. Left wing first, centre second, right wing third, and back to left wing at fourth, and so on and so on. This made it easier to make the lines when editing it later on. I'd then do a second check with: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/forums/show/3745.page;jsessionid=25C5004ACB86398438B8817B28B60044 to check with other people's opinions. Second, I use this website: http://www.forecaster.ca/thestar/hockey/playerindex.cgi to get information on individuals, and base their ratings on the tidbits of information provided, as well as use their previous year(s) stats to make their overall ratings a certain way. As a general rule of thumb, the fourth liners would typically be around 40-50ish rating, third liners 50-high 60's (depending on the player) second liners high 60's to 80's, first liners high 70's to high 90's (Depending on the player). And third, I used some of the completed roms to do the jerseys (credit to trudatman, as I used all his jersey colours) I also added water bottles... And made every team that I've completed bonuses 4 for offense 3 for defense 2 for power play 1 for PK and 1/1 for home / away just to make things fair. What my group of friends will do is select 6 teams each and do a best of 7 (using each team at least once), if the series goes to a game 7 we each choose our best team and compete that way. So I guess that's why I stopped at 12 teams... and lack of time! Anyways, here's the rom. Hope it helps with making the rosters... If not, disregard! Thought I'd spread some assistance Oh, the completed teams are: Anaheim, detroit, chicago, boston, san jose, vancouver, washington, LA, Tampa Bay, Pittsburgh, New York Rangers, New Jersey, philly, buffalo, toronto, and nashville. Might do more later. Oh, and if anyone's in the Vancouver region, we're planning on doing another 2v2 tournament sometime. We've met other locals and have gotten about 8 teams. I'm sure you know JeffBC, he came out one time. Him and his partner got destroyed. Hope we can find some more locals. NHL.rar

Cool. What's with no arrows though? When it's 4 players this is essential IMO

I don't know what NHL 94 you play dude, but in mine (the cartridge version) it's 5 minute overtimes. We're playing regular season games, maybe that has something to do with it? We play 10 minute periods, the overtimes are always 5 minutes.

Only two of the 01 2C are together. None of the other hex values are near those. So I edited one, assuming one would be the period length (5 minutes) and the other would be the overtime. Neither got adjusted. BAH! Anyone actually do the edit before? Know where the exact location is??

I mean there's like ten of them. Ten of the 04 B0 's, so which to change

there's also like 10 04 b0 which i'd like to change. how do i know which to change. do i change them all?

Can't find it. Screen shot? I looked for the team, found it, didn't find it. There's about 7 "77's" i found.

thanks. default ot length in snes is 5 minutes though.

And is there a way to change overtime period length

Ok, searched them what values do I change to? And what do you mean search "the hex data" How do I do that? Do I search a text string or hex string? We must use different hex editors. Mine is XVI32 I searched "inutes" in both, couldn't find anything.

So how to change it?

Can you screenshot just the nets from your tile editor with no text? :-D

Any chance you can have an update to show what each individual player's total average is? It'd be great for balancing and what not

Can you show me how you edited your nets like that? I'd prefer those nets in my game...

How do you change the ice colour to white. Does it look better? Thanks.

I couldn't find out how to edit these in the hex editor, I don't really understand the brief guide in the mapping thread. First, what do the advantages do...? Second, how can I edit them? Thanks!

Is there a way to start a game that goes directly into a best of 7, doing home ice 2 / 2 / 1 / 1 / 1, with the option of who gets home ice advantage? Some way to possible morph the best of 7 option already in place, and rather than "not playing" be placed on opposing team??!?!?! this would be GREAAAAAAAAT! And stanley cup at end?

Can I get the editor?

Wondering how to change the overtime length, and can it be continuous (Still sudden death, but if the period ends, go into another period)? Also, how do you change the period length options. I'd like 5/7/10 Thx.

I tried adding the bottles. Doesn't seem to work for me. I've found the nets, but when 4 nets appear, and some I can't even centre, it becomes confusing, never seems to work. I'll add the bottle, and nothing will happen. Could you shed some light? What colour do you use? Perhaps the one I'm using blends in or something... (Although I do use brown for the bottle top)...

I'll take a look today. See the nets but that's about it

Still confused :/

Confusing as hell. All I see is a big pile of random colours...
