Sean Posted November 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Hey all, 4.0 just went up. Included in the update... Spreadsheet Season Simulator Regular Season schedule tracker, conference playoff seeding randomizer, and NCAA tournament seeding randomizer There is an example spreadsheet so you can get a feel for how it works - feel free to delete my notes or the conference/non-conference game designations, but make tweaks to the total games played or formulas at your own risk. I tried to make this as user friendly as possible, but it may be finicky for some and hell, there's a chance no on even uses it! If you have any issues, send me a Discord message and I can try to help you out. Updated ROMs with small visual tweaks ESPN+ scorebug updated, bracket banners restored to original pallette, and portraits updated Anyways, let me know if there are any problems.

I got the puck Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 Hey Seamor...still enjoy your games...these are biblically HUGE and fun..I got a question, you did the neutral and outdoor roms but for the end of the year, do you intend to do roms for Final four? where any and every team could be part of the final four with the final four ice and crowd stuff? Just thought I ask since it hasn't been mention. I know there's a lot of work involved and wondering if you might not do it, which could be understandable..but just wondering if sets of playoff roms will be added. Stay safe and thanks a million for your work. Always there to support you man!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted November 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, I got the puck said: do you intend to do roms for Final four? Good question - I personally consider the neutral site ROM to be the playoff ROM. The only reason I used the general NCAA Hockey logo instead of the Frozen Four logo was to make it flexible for anyone who wanted to play conference championships or in-season tournaments (as a proud Bostonian, I love the Beanpot!). If you look closely at the splash photo, it’s actually from one of the NHL rinks they had the FF tournament at a few years ago. In terms of future updates - I have a small graphics tweak (added scorekeepers, coaches, and refined bench players) I hope to publish soon after some more testing. I may or may not add a separate pod with all of the major club teams that people speculate could go D1 within the next few years around Christmas time. Thanks for the continued support!

Sean Posted November 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) Hey all, Caught a bug that needed quick patching while playtesting something else, so you get a bug fix and the new rink template I was toying with. Have a nice American Thanksgiving. Edited November 24, 2022 by seamor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been a few outdoor rink templates (including my own), but this is in my opinion the truest look. The glass is "transparent" and the lighting is ever so slightly tinted yellow to give a sunshine/stadium lighting effect. The scoreboard is snowy, the splash screen is Soldier Field, and teams that I have seen wear alternate uniforms outside receive updates to wear those jerseys. A few football inspired uniforms too. Bugs have been tracked and fixed.  That rink is awesome! I love the creativity with this series. Have you considered putting a toque on the bald guy in the stands in the scoreboard menu screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is a Texas longhorns logo which does not have a D1 team. Has this changed? comes to me an idea to suggest you an extra pod with fantasy ncaa teams such as Alabama, Oklahoma, USC, Miami(Florida) and I wouldn't mind playing a Florida Gators team which has cool colors as jerseys. Do you think it would interest you to doithis? Just food for thought. Have a great Christmas!! Joyeux Noel!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah… I definitely went a bit overboard!  Couldn’t have done it without working from an awesome foundation and your TM references. Saved so much time, especially when doing the new pod combinations and patches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are in the Dynasty Simulator topic just to keep it as a separate project since the rosters are fictional.  Arkansas did not make the cut but given their status as an SEC team they could be in a potential third update along with Auburn, LSU, or Vanderbilt. It’ll be while before I add more teams, but in that other .zip there’s 32 extra teams from across the ACC, AAC, Big 12, SEC, B1G, Ivy, MWC, and PAC 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted January 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2023 (edited) Hey all, Working on a roster update for this project and I will also be touching up some visuals while I'm at it. Looking to have this done before the rivalry weekend at the end of January (BU v BC AND Cornell v Harvard, yes!) I will also be making a name change to the project as to avoid confusion with ECH's College Hockey Gameday.

Sean Posted January 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2023 (edited) Hey all, Just wanted to share an update on the scope of this project (mostly for my own gain/to track progress). First, I have decided to revamp the branding to get away from the ESPN+ imagery. There was some serious East Coast bias in that decision given only 2 conferences are on the service. Second, I am changing the pre-game experience to be a bit more true to college hockey and cohesive with the NCAA branding. Colby Cohen takes over as the color commentator given he's the only Frozen Four broadcaster who played D-I, and team rankings appear. Drezz's background hacks appear on both pre-game screens. This is a screenshot of the rough draft of this stage of the game, and I am very excited with how the final looks. Third, the rink and arena tile layout has been updated to feature a more realistic atmosphere. Ice logos are as authentic as possible, and fan colors are now "dynamic" based on the home team's color palette. The signs are also going to be on the bottom of the glass as to match actual NCAA rinks. I hope to publish the podded update where you can see all of the changes in action within the next few weeks, these large scale changes take a lot of time but they are necessary to create a ROM worthy of the amazing league that is D1 NCAA Hockey.
