  1. NHL 89! Finally released

    in Genesis Roms

    Posted

    Impressive work SY, though there are some things that can be improved.

    The menu logos you did don't look very crisp, this probably has to do with not optimizing the logos and pallet(s) before you imported them leaving TM to do the majority of the rendering. Basically the BGR values in the logo are different from the values in the particular pallets.

    I have a method for doing them that ensures getting the best aesthetic result possible. I'd be happy to share it with you if you want.

    Glancing at the rink logos real quick they seem to have the same defects, TM was forced to do most of the rendering since the colors in your logos didn't match the uniform palette(s). It's best to using as many variations of a hue as possible when doing a uniform since the more colors you use in the uniform palette the more detail you will end up with your logo, and uniform too.

    For instance you only used one color red for team Canada. Had you used a darker shade of red, a lighter, and then a lightest your uniforms would have more depth and would make you logo would look much better..It's hard enough trying to make anything looks presentable with 8 or 9 colors.

    Come to think of it I should probably do a tutorial on this

    Wboy gave me a massive grid with all the tile offsets for editing the crease if you want to change it to the right era lmk and I can explain editing the rink tiles.

    Finally you should zip the rom if you want to make it an attachment. I don't think this forum supports bin attachments.

    Don't take it personal SY I'm only being objective and I know how much work goes into one of these. You know I'll to help you in any way I can.

    Great job, and I look forward to the next release.

    Thanks for the advice clockwise, some of the logos could use some working on especially the NY Rangers logo, I could really use some help with the logos and editing the rink tiles as well. Canada uniforms are yucky and they will be fixed.

    I've got to say that I really enjoyed it, kinks and all! Nicely done, SY, and thank you.

    My only true qualms are the following:

    1.) Why is Gretzky rated so low? He's a 90, even though coming off the 87-88 season, he scored 149 pts in only 64 games! Pro-rated over an 80 games season, he would have run away with the Art Ross. And he won the Conn Smythe that year in the playoffs. That deserves at a 95 rating, no?

    2.) Where's Bobby Smith? He was Montreal's #1 center (not to mention my favorite Hab ever) in both the 87-88 and 88-89 seasons. He scored 93 points in the season you based the game on. Surely there's a spot for him between Naslund and Richer on Montreal's first line.

    Apart from that, I really enjoyed this ROM. Thanks for making the effort, SY. I really appreciate it.

    PS - Anyone up for some NHL 89 netplay? AIM me: awesomerino

    I got to do redo Gretsky again, I messed up some stats without thinking.

    I think I might have deleted Bobby Smith's entry by mistake, I will put him back in, sorry for that mess up.

    I think it is safe to say there will be another release of NHL 89, so keep your eyes peeled!

    Changed all ridiculous ratings ie: Cliff Ronning was a overall 92 and now he is an 82

    Changed to be made

    Need to still fix Americas and Canadas logo

    Enjoy and if there is any problems or bugs please let me know.

  6. Player Card Question

    in General Questions & Discussion

    Posted

    Has anyone figured a way to use unique player cards for Anaheim and Florida in 94?

    I am working on what is, for lack of a better term, 'ultimate edition' of the game with correct 93-94 uniforms (New Jersey, Anaheim, St.Louis, etc. updated) along with some other cosmetic touch-ups and was hoping to add player cards for the starting lines of the expansion teams.

    Thanks

    Use Wboys 30 team rom as the rom has unique player cards already!

    Thats pretty fing sweet stevie! Just played a game using my favorite team that year (LA of course) and WOW.

    There is a colour bug, where green seems to show up where it shouldnt, think its suppose to be black.

    I will note this is the first year, that I really became a hockey fan! (Gretzky's first year as a King)

    I think Bernie Nicholls ratings gotta be bumped up, he had 70 G, 80 A that year. Bobby Carpenter shot gotta be toned down also, its way too strong for a guy that only scored 11 G in 39 GP.

    The colour bug I will look at, I will change Bernie Nicholl's stats and I will change Bobby Carpenter's shot as well in the next version and I am delighted you liked the game.

    The Rom is based in the 88-89 season where Calgary won thier last Stanley cup

    This will be changing, roughly in about 9 months...

    lol, Oh really!

    A great first attempt. Keep it up.

    thanks Mack

    Hey guys,

    I have just finished off my NHL 89 hack, it has kept being delayed due to technical failures (much like Microsoft and Sony's products, lol).

    The Rom is based in the 88-89 season where Calgary won thier last Stanley cup also the last canadian showdon in the playoffs.

    There is a bug in the game which does not display America's and canada's logo properly.

    Also if there is any errors in the rosters such as player ratings and etc, then PM me and I will put them in the next version of this game. I was not around during the NHL 88-89 season so there may be mistakes.

    Anyway enjoy this fine release!

  17. Block pasting in NOSE

    in NOSE

    Posted

    Hi there guys,

    It is probably pretty obvious but if you hold down shift + select all the players on one rom and press CTRL +C and then open up another intance of NOSE and the rom you want to paste to and select the same ammout of players you can paste data across using CTRL + V. I just thought I would add this as someone on my AIM asked me about this. Any comments or critisism are welcome!

  24. NHL 94 hacking question!

    in General Questions & Discussion

    Posted

    I have gone through hundreds and hundreds of pages from this forum and looked through hex code, tile graphics utilities and etc and I can't find out the hex address to modify the title screen for the Original NHL 94 (Not Wboys hack). The reason why I need it for the original NHL 94 is that I based my rom hack on that. If anyone can help me I will appriciate it. thanks
