  1. NHL17 by Skip and Slapshot67 - Major Update!

    in Genesis Roms

    Posted · Edited by The Dopefish

    I'd leave Ovi at a 5 shot power. His best in a Skills Competition -- 101.8mph -- is still slower than Stamkos, Subban, or Byfuglien. Not that performance in the Skills Competition is the only way to measure it, but at least it's a more official guideline.

    What are the standards by which you rate everyone else?

  13. NHL 2016 Deadline 1.1 by Naples39

    Cool. Just wanted to mention if you didn't hear already, that the Pens are going back to their 1980s/early 90s uniforms. They are making the black/yellow ones permanent home jerseys (only used for a dozen regular season games and playoffs this past season), and was announced just a couple weeks ago that they are going back to their white/yellow road jerseys of old (substituting the yellow for the cream color they used the past decade). Just wanted to throw that out there :)

    I like your version better than the other one because I felt the other one played too fast and arcade-like and I was scoring way too much. As with the above poster, I am also a Pens fan, and now they have gone back to their older 1980s/early 1990s uniforms for both home and away, and would like a way to be able to change it in the game to reflect this.

    So what I'm hearing is: you want to make sure the both of these modders know that the Penguins have new jerseys. ;)

  14. NHL'94 for the Iphone

    It works for me.

    I paid I think $10 per year to download emulators for iPhone from this site:

    http://builds.io/?

    The MeSNEmu emulator is great for playing SNES games. They have Genesis and other ones too. My Bluetooth NES controller is compatible with the emulator too. The biggest issue is that they're not usually compatible with the latest iOS. Right now I'm running 9.2.1 and it works. But for a while it didn't. It's like they're always trying to catch up to the latest iOS. It stopped working on my iPad and o can't figure out why. It's worth a shot though!

    I have GBA4iOS for my iPhone which I used my Macbook to sideload. What's happening is that these apps are not authorized by Apple and thus have "developer certifications" which are revoked after a certain amount of time. I found that whereas when I was downloading GBA4iOS from iem.us (which collaborates with builds.io) the certification would lapse after sometimes a couple days, sideloading it via my Mac would assure me a week's worth of availability.

    Without getting into the finer details, the long and short of it is that emulators will likely never be authorized by Apple due to the erring on the side of caution with respect to copyright infringement. To that extent, emulator apps that circumvent this certification process may never be as fully developed with netplay and other, deeper features.

  18. NHL16 Playoff ROM

    I tried posting yesterday about how I'd like to make some edits as well, mostly to ratings. The brackets seem to be fine, at least when I play as Pittsburgh. The bracket lining up later on is completely up to the AI.

  20. Scoring with 0:00 left in a period?

    in General NHL'94 Discussion

    Posted

    I've been playing NHL '94 for YEARS but I can't remember a time when I've scored with no time left on the clock. Of course, much of that time was back when I was playing on the console and couldn't save record of it even if it did happen, but I've certainly never seen it happen when emulating...until today!

    I thought immediately once the clock hit 0:00 that the period was over and the imaginary force field that prevents goals would go up instantly, but apparently that's not the case? Anyone else ever have this happen to them?

  24. NHL16 ROM - Midseason Update by Skip

    in Genesis Roms

    Have you done any experiments to determine the root cause of your issues? (e.g., use one file type versus another, using different versions and doing the same thing, trying different emulators and different versions of those, etc.)

    I assume most people who use ROMs and emulators do so on PCs which are generally more powerful and more stable than phones and their OSes. I'm not an expert on emulation, but I'd also surmise that PC emulators, some of which have been around, play tested, bugfixed and otherwise generally optimized over the course of years, are much better for emulation than their mobile counterparts.

    In summation, it's probably unfair to blame your difficulties on the ROM since that's just the tip of the iceberg in the grand scheme of emulation. Like with anything, a bad foundation will cause problems all the way at the top.
