no neither would I, but that was barely the point now was it?

urch, it seems the only people still optimistic about the Kings reaching the playoffs are the Kings themselves...I gave up hope 5 games ago!

Exactly, a week I can understand, but a fortnight says that the thread is basically destined to be buried under everything else. I suppose you can blame a guy for trying....

thanks for the speedy and helpfull replies guys...really appreciate it...

ah...right

What do you mean KG?

Using two PS2 clone USB controllers. They only cost me a fiver each and they more than do the job, the thumbsticks suit me as a really nice way to play the game, I just map the shoot and pass buttons to the right analog stick and the dump and poke buttons to the bumpers...kind of a NHL 09 / 94 compromise, works really well!

Do the Tilemolester bookmarks and palattes (for the rink and uniforms) exist in a saved project file for the default NHL94.bin? In the same way the logo bookmark file is? If so, would anyone be kind enough to share them? I'm in the middle of a NHL94 facelift project, making the original game as visually impressive as it can be, whilst still maintaining the charm of the original graphics. As a sidenote, i'd also be interested in the bookmarks and palattes for the goals, puck, player star and in-game score/clock; but they're really not especially important.

Come on guys, any takers?

Evening chaps, and greetings from across the pond! I suppose i'm new to NHL 94, but it's eaten up all my spare time of late, and i've been forced to create more free-time now i've downloaded a few bells and whistles (the NOSE editor being the holy grail so far)! But, playing through a good ammount of games has brought a few niggles to my attention, some I hope it's possible to fix; hopefully with you guys on side to help. In any case, there's only one way to find out, and that's asking. I'll upload my current ROM version so you guys can take a look, see what you make of my asks, whether you're generous enough to have a go at solving anything is of course up to you, i'm not fishing for it all being done for me, I want to learn too. I'll list these down in order of (what I believe to be) ease to do, some are just cosmetic, others a bit more complex, and some are just wild flights of fancy...but hey, we can always dream right? Here we go: 1) Centre Ice logo recolouring - The Nose Strip Editor appears to have taken a toll on the centre Ice logos, which now are either in the wrong colours, wrong colour patterns or in black and white. Not good. Two remedies i'd be interested in, either a way to return the logos to their original colours, or to remove centre ice logos from the game all-together, I can't say I'd miss them a great deal, and they do tend to clutter somewhat. 2) Player Eyes Recolouring - I've also noticed that on many (and I presume all) of the home uniforms, the players eyes (Ie: the single pixels) are no longer black, but instead white. This means they don't quite stand out as they previously did, which takes away from the charm of the original sprites; which although not crucial is a shame. Any possible fix? 3) SWOS strip Hack - I'd quite like to be able to incorporate the SWOS strip hack into my ROM, which would allow for a much better representation of the jerseys in the editor; the only way i'm aware of is downloading the 30 team ROM and editing, but editing the menu's logos, players and teams is a bit out of my depth for the moment, so I'd rather stick as close to the 'Vanilla' version of NHL 94 as possible. I'm happy to leave out the goalie crease edit that SWOS has also done, in fact i'd prefer to keep the semi-circle crease. Can the strip hack be added? 4) Disable Hooking - During gameplay players can become stuck against another for a few seconds, before either being checked or breaking free. I presume (although I may be wrong) that this is a result of the hooking feature that i've read about. Is there a way to disable this. Okay, heading into flight of fancy zone here, but bear with me... 5) Skating over downed (checked players) - This is probably the most frustrating of all the little niggles in the game, especially in plays behind the net. Picture the scene, you follow Lucky Luke behind the net, puck on your stick, but Luke gets hit, and goes down. Now you have a defender on your tail, and as Gretzky camps out in front of the net, ready for the one-timer you're stuck between a rock and a hard-place, you can't skate through as a prone Robitaille lies out flat, and you can't go back and get checked. Your fecked! If it were possible to allow players to be unobstructed by players that have fallen/been checked, whilst maintaining the collisions between active players, that would be awesome. It's a long shot, but... 6) The Holy Grail - NHLPA 93 style injuries and fights. Fights I can see being difficult, but re-texturing the injury sprites possibly less so...It would be especially impressive if heads only bled on game long injuries, rather than lesser period long, or 2 period long ones. See the ROM attached below. Thanks in advance for any help or advice your able to give guys, it's much appreciated. Rob NHL_94_RobbyD_edit.bin

Hi all, just fiddling around with the NOSE recolouring to make the day-glo blue ice, into a nice natural white. Only problem is, the skate-level numbers for the players have now become a hell of a lot harder to read. I want to change them to a darker gray, enough to be able to see, but not to clash with the puck...problem is, I don't know where the option for number colour appears, under the rink tab? under the uniform tab? et etc. Thanks in advance guys.

Ok, before I continue if this is either: a] somewhere else on the forum or b] posted in the wrong place then I apologize, I had a quick look round and couldn't find anything, so there it is... I'm using NHL 94 on the SNES emulator "zsnes". During gameplay, my players occasionally get stuck next to or behind/in front of an opposing player. I'm then unable to move/pass/shoot etc, until I am checked. Is this a fault/bug? Or, is this a feature of the game I am yet to get to grips with? Thanks in advance guys for any assistance. Rob

Awight? 'Names Rob, i'm a British student living in Scotland, and I suppose I stumbled across this site by mistake... Started playing NHL 94 a few days back with a couple of mates. It was kind of a lads night in 'pick me up' after a rather nasty split with my now ex-girlfriend. So it was a case of pizza, emulators, 4 controls we picked up for a fiver, and lots and lots of booze. I downloaded 94 that night, mainly because I remember one of my mates from back home sending me that clip from the film "Swingers" - I'm a Kings fan y'see, have been since I picked up NHL Faceoff 97 for the old PSX, and I get quite a bit of stick for it. So we booted up the SNES and NHL 94 and even after everyone had passed out I was holding the Kings in a 5-5 tie in game 3 against Montreal...the things addictive as hell! So yeah, I scrabbled around for more info on the net...and kinda ended up here Hey!
