clockwise Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 Wow, thats precision . I've never seen this before, did you score one of the goals on a pass shot or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo Knows NHL94 Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 NHL 94 Fails At Math I didn't make that, and also is that the SNES version of the game or is it not 94 at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wboy Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 I don't actually know. Did the cpu team concede a own goal? That would do it statistics wise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wboy Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 NHL 94 Fails At Math I didn't make that, and also is that the SNES version of the game or is it not 94 at all? Definately appears to be the SNES version of NHL94. So how does the game calculates 365% from 212 / 314 passes? Here's how! (yes, it's a bug/oversight) The function that calculates the percentages in-game must only accept/expect bytes values. A byte can only accommodate for 256 values (0 to 255). Add 1 to the value 255 and the byte effectively returns to the value 0. 212 can be stored within a byte, but 314 effective becomes 58 (314 - 256, or 314 mod 256 to be more technically correct). Calculating a percentage with this, 212 / 58 *100 = 365.52% EA seemingly never expected anyone to make more than 255 passes in a game!

CaseBC Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 If you pass it into the net it doesn't count as a shot. Jeff and I have had games where we'd have about 5 or 6 more goals than shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clockwise Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Trying to replicate this I messed around the and scored on some pass shots the other day to no avail, when I checked the game stats the passes registered as shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samhain Posted July 5, 2006 Report Share Posted July 5, 2006 Just wanted to pass this one along.... I think if the net comes off it doesnt count as a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trudatman Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 for SNES, if you skate into the goalie and lose the puck and it goes in, there is no shot. I often have 120% shooting averages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smozoma Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 I've seen this happen if you score on a penalty shot in the Genesis version. Penalty shots don't seem to count as shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
