kingraph

I'm not sure myself. It might be tile number 41B from a tile set that starts at offset 8360. I usually scan and look for graphics by eyeballing in TM. If you know the palette, it helps to load that first so the graphics really pop.

This is perhaps the most constructive and helpful feedback received! Thanks for taking the time to share, this is good advice and something we need to consider.

If the left handle can be rewired to a dpad, there can be no greater gift.

The only thing I'd suggest is checking out @smozoma's dithering program to convert an image to 16 (or less) usable Genesis colors. That's my main goto for graphics editing: https://forum.nhl94.com/index.php?/topic/14421-tool-genesis-image-ditherer-to-16-colours/ Thanks for the write up!

That particular wireless, 2.4ghz, works well with no noticable lag as confirmed by some players who use them.

Seconding this controller recommendation!

Welcome! 94 & 95 are two completely different games. In the 92-94 series, The skating dynamics and overall gameplay just feels much better. That's pretty much the simplest answer. It's just better gameplay. What really kills 95 is the skating. In many ways, it feels like what you said about deck/street hockey -- way too much running!

Just confirmed with @McMikey that he's in the works to try and get this on YouTube at some point. That's good news, we just have to be patient.

I'm left with @dethroxas @Jammer - KO94IIsnes lost in 7 to @stheds2000 and @angryjay93lost to @Stantonator!

Tough one for me here, but I'm gonna put $1,000 on Jammer +400 $1,000 on dethrox +500 $1,000 on AngryJay93 +600 Total bet $3,000. I'm in the black as long as one of these 3 win.

I'm betting $1,000 on birdman at +300. 36-4 is insane, with a GDif of 3.52. It's a lock!

Bro, you went 34-6 in 2020!

That is not minor! I misread and will update my post and likely odds. House will still honor all bets made before this information was known!

Summer'20 GENS "A" Vegas Odds 1. AngryJay93 (STL) - 3000 8. PistolPete42 (VAN) +3000 Season Series (1-1) @angryjay93 is one of the all-time great ‘94 players ever. Multiple league titles over multiple years, multiple live event championships in BOTH Sega and SNES. He literally wrote the book on lineup options on teams that everyone references. And he just went 34-6 in the regular season, which just so happens to be the best 40 game record in Classic A Genesis EVER (or at least 12 years). Only two other times did someone go 33-7, and one of those was AngryJay93 (the other one was HABS). And he did it this season with St. Louis, in a league with some good veteran competition. It’s possible that AJ is playing his best ‘94 ever, which is scary for everyone else. Now here’s the intriguing part. @pistolpete42 was one of those 6 wins vs AJ! In his first Classic season, PistolPete managed to make the playoffs in the “A” league, which is a great showing for a newcomer. PistolPete proves that he can play ‘94, and will continue to get better as he plays tougher competition. And Vancouver matches up really well against St. Louis. All that speed and lightweight forwards will keep Hull off his feet, but I suspect AJ will find ways to counter that advantage. While PistolPete can steal a game, it’s just too much to beat AJ in a 7 game series. PREDICTION: STL in 4 2. Kingraph (LA) - 700 7. Zeppelin55 (WPG) + 700 Season Series (4-0 LA) kingraph took the LA Kings to a 31-9 regular season finish, earning him the #2 spot. One of 3 coaches who finished with over 2 on the goal differential, kingraph did it with the fantastic offense that LA has, finishing first in goals for in the league. On the flip side, Hrudey was 7th in goalie save % (of starters) and the Kings were 4th in GA/G. Raph will have to rely on his manual goalie and shot-preventing defense to make this team work for a chance at the cup. Zeppelin55, aka @kylewat, is always a tough competitor and frequently challenges all the top players in the leagues he joins. He favors the WInnipeg Jets, as he can use Phil Housley as an offensive weapon better than most other people. Zeppelin and kingraph met in Classic 2016 that resulted in a 7 game series! kingraph squeaked out a victory needing a 3rd period rally. The evidence is there that this series can go 7 games again and perhaps Winnipeg can pull the upset. PREDICTION: LA in 6 3. Uncle Set (QUE) - 1500 6. Scribe99 (TOR) + 1500 Season Series (3-1 QUE) @Uncle Seth came out of "retirement" to remind people that he’s one of the best players ever to pick up the Genesis controller. He took Quebec to a league leading Goal Differential of 2.56, consisting of a GF/G average of 5.51 and a stifling defense of 2.95 GA/G. Ron Hextall led all goalies with a .712 save %, showing that Seth is one of the best at manual goalie. Seth has always been at the doorstep of the cup. In his 2016 Classic, he had a 3-1 series lead over AJ before losing in 7. In the season before he also lost to AJ in 5 games in the finals. He lost to Plabax twice in the finals in Plablegs 01 and GDL16. I think the time off has given Uncle Seth a renewed hunger to make a deep playoff run and finally pick up one of those elusive titles. @Scribe99 is also continuing his '94 resurgence, coming back to the online scene after being away for a while. A veteran of the game who continues to practice, explore and share information, he took the Toronto Maple Leafs to the 6th seed with an impressive 24-16 record. His GA/G is stellar at 3.06 (3rd in the league), with Potvin posting a.710 save percentage! Clearly defense isn’t a problem for Scribe. On the offensive end, Scribe's GF/G is on the lower end of the league at only 3.34. That’s not going to cut it against Seth’s tight Quebec defense. So unless Scribe can find some more ways to bury the puck, it’s not going to be a pretty picture when they drop the puck in Quebec. PREDICTION: QUE in 5 4. Schmidt (MTL) - 110 5. Corbettkb (DET) - 110 Season Series (2-2 TIE) This 4/5 series has all the makings of an epic battle. Both @JSchmidt and @corbettkb have nearly identical GDif (1.50 and 1.46 respectively), and are reflective of the teams they are using. Corbett has the higher GF/G with Detroit’s explosive forwards, while Schmidt has the better GA/G with Patrick Roy in the pipes. Steve Yzerman led the league in points per game at 3.43, while teammates Dino Ciccarelli finished at 2.50 and Federov at 1.73. Montreal is a little more balanced, as expected, with Muller, Savard and Damphousse at 2.90, 2.45 and 2.41. Having played both of these coaches a lot over the last year, I feel they both have the ability to win the entire cup when they stay focused. And that’s going to be key here - the ability to stay focused in a 7 game series is a mental battle with yourself sometimes. Both of these coaches have a tendency of getting a little too loose too early if they fall behind which can lead to costly mistakes. However, when playing tight, they are as good as anyone. I have this at a coin flip (I make my $10 house cut!) and see this going to a game 7. The only thing I like better is Detroit’s firepower, but at the same time Montreal has the home ice advantage in a potential game 07! YIKES, this looks to be a good one. PREDICTION: DET in 7 (OT) ODDS TO WIN THE CUP (based on projected playoff path) The likely path based on my odds for Zeppelin/Scribe to win the cup would mean to beat kingraph, Uncle Seth, & AngryJay93 in 7 game series'. That would be one of the hardest runs ever! If PistolPete gets past AJ, he’d face Corbettkb, and then likely kingraph/UncleSeth in a finals. No small feat for our lower seeds for sure! AngryJay93 (STL) +350 kingraph (LA) +350 Uncle Seth (QUE) + 500 Corbettkb (DET) + 1250 Schmidt (MTL) +1300 Zeppelin (WPG) + 3000 Scribe (TOR) +3000 PistolPete (VAN) +5000
