  1. Man, I know @clockwise had done this hack (changing puck color to home team) in his ROM updates years back. I can't find the info though.
  2. This visual was money...made me laugh out loud.
  3. Thank you! Your clarity, organization, and helpfulness is off the charts. This is just beautiful work.
  4. I am revising my estimate today. I think there are 26k for each letter, and 5k of the non-lettered. Why? Well, we haven't gotten a number past 26k (largest is 25910 and multiple 25k+ for each letter). When I make this assumption and look at the distribution of only the letter numbers in buckets of 2600 (10 slices), we have a 50/50 split from the first half and second half of numbers (n=338 as of today). And the distribution between the 10 buckets feels normal. So until I see something otherwise, I'll go with this. I am also dying to have visual proof of two sticker matches. Right now we have two reported matches, but I don't have the visual screenshots! These could be errors.
  5. Sorry, I did a fly by and didn't realize this was not '94 related.
  6. Also fun fact -- the "High Score" splash actually uses multiple palettes (that orange part in the globe) in the original ROM, so it's not possible to do a direct copy of that splash in the 30 team without slightly modifying. Not sure how you did it, but nobody would ever notice that nuance.
  7. For what it's worth, attached is the exact rip of the nhl and nhlpa shield from the game.
  8. The layout of the scoreboard logo is BDD44. I highlighted the tiles here: I also noticed that my original post had the incorrect palette. Or at least I believe the palette on the scoreboard logo is 776934 (2nd palette). The 3 stars and scoreboard have separate palette locations.
  9. My original favorite player for Sega was Russ Courtnall. And probably still is, but it's evolved over these years more into a love/hate relationship lol. My original feeling (almost 30 years ago???) was that he wasn't an all-star or top player in the game. He was this hidden gem on a team that was also not recognized as a top team (Dallas Stars). I prefer righty shots on the LW, and SPEED is the most valued attribute, so he was the perfect player. I always loved dominating with Russ and the Stars because it provided more legitimacy than winning with the Blackhawks, Red Wings, etc. When I stumbled into this community back in Spring'11, I used the Stars in Classic. Probably not a coincidence. Thanks to this community, I've amassed more knowledge about players and attributes than any normal person should know. And one thing that troubles me with Russ now is his poor stick handling skills (3 rated out of 6). Stick handling affects the ability of a player to handle a pass. So with Russ, you'll notice that many passes bounce off his skates. It's frustrating, and requires some patience and adjustments when you play with him. But since we go way back, I think I still have a soft spot for him and would be my favorite player for that reason. PLUS, @chaos got Russ to do a Cameo appearance for me to start CDL 05! As far as SNES, I stink and have no idea.
  10. What about making the skate blade white at home? Then you have the white color to use and the blade color is the least noticable color imo. Either way I like the white on the home logo.
  11. From the Empty Clip website and my e-mail exchanges conversations with their CEO, it looks like they use something called Arsenal. Haven't found any information on that software, or even if it's proprietary, but it does seem like something that allows you to run old ROMs on modern platforms with enhancements.
  12. Thank you!!! I appreciate this in so many ways. Thanks for taking the time to make the detailed post. Also major kudos to your art skills! Hacking and coding is one thing, but the art of making a small image using 16 colors look good in the game is no easy feat. (anyone who has done Sega graphic edits are nodding their heads).
  13. Thanks for the reminder! Will do this week
