LadyScorpion Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 (edited) Hello, NHL 94: 2024 Edition is too hard for me so I'm looking for a good modded NHL game with latest rosters. I have a preference for PCSX2, Xemu, Dolphin, Xenia, RPCS3 or PPSSPP for NHL games. Please note that I'm not a hardcore gamer. No PC version please. Thanks in advance.

von Ozbourne Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 At risk of sounding self promoting, your question makes me curious. Aside from the obvious graphical differences, there were some slightly different philosophies going into the game play of these two options. But then the question is: Is it noticeable enough that the games may have different accessibility levels for different skill levels? Or is the game inherently the same, and the only real difference felt is going to be in the overall ratings of the players on the team you select, and is that going to be minimal because of the limitations of the game engine. The way I play means that I'm just adapting to changes all the time, so I can't really get a a good baseline. But I'd be intrigued to hear if this version of a "modded NHL game with latest rosters" is a different experience for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyScorpion Posted March 26 Author Report Share Posted March 26 (edited) @von Ozbourne, I have a lower skill level in hockey than in soccer. In soccer, I put in pro and sometimes in semi-pro but in hockey I can't go beyond easy mode with a lot of offside. I tested your version but unfortunately, it still too hard for me and I can't stand Sega Genesis controls. Plus, it's too limited because it's not possible to play exhibition matches. That's why I don't go older than NHL 2004 or ESPN NHL 2K5 but I hate controls of the PC versions. The fact that NHL only releases on Xbox Series and PS5 complicates things even more for me. At this point, the best solution may be to give up NHL games. Edited March 26 by LadyScorpion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyScorpion Posted March 27 Author Report Share Posted March 27 (edited) I tested NHL 2004 and it's unplayable and frustrating so I need to change my preferences for modded NHL and NHL 2K10 is now the minimum.

smozoma Posted March 27 Report Share Posted March 27 I'm not sure there's going to be a game any easier than an NHL'94 mod. You just need to learn the "crease-cut" move and then go from there. See the following video. "crease cut" at 4:10. The key is to hold the shoot button until it automatically shoots (don't tap it. hold it until it shoots.). Sometimes it's tough to get past the D, but this is the easiest way to score of probably any NHL game in history. Skate to the boards, then skate across the net and hold the shoot button. Goalie automatically falls to the ice when you wind up the slapshot. "slot slapshot" at 1:55. You need to be careful of when you begin the shot, don't be too early or late. Make sure to use a player with a shot power of at least 70 in order to overpower the goalie. A shot accuracy >60 will help it not miss the net too often. Again, hold the shot button until it shoots, don't tap it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNaViT01WcE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted March 27 Report Share Posted March 27 (edited) I feel uniquely qualified to answer this, as a person who used to mod here a lot and now has shifted to NHL Legacy Edition. There are only 3 (to my knowledge) in progress mods of any games after NHL 2k10. 2KHS is a mod of NHL 2k11 on the Wii, but download availability is sporadic - I don’t have anything but it’s worth poking around. Full engine tweaks and everything, it’s a marvel. NHL Legacy Rebuilt is a work in progress mod that had a few releases with updated in-game textures and rosters for (you guessed it) NHL Legacy Edition, but right now they took all of their downloads down and have been “working behind the scenes”. My mod, which had a sort of closed alpha test last month, College Hockey Faceoff is also of NHL Legacy but if you’re not into NCAA it might not be your speed. Here’s a link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BoKWfpkfKmyRdgN94_ZukVfkLJ2GvZvS. Very incomplete, but expecting another release this spring with most of the big brand college teams, not just the east coast. Mods for these modern games are very uncommon, as there’s not a huge draw like College Football Revamped or College Hoops 2K Reborn since hockey is a smaller sport. As someone who has built/used 3 PCs and seen these games emulated on all of them, NHL Legacy is by far the most CPU intensive sports game I’ve seen so the power requirement blocks out a lot of people who would otherwise be interested.

Apparently the "2024 Edition" one is harder than normal, so this one might be a better introduction to NHL'94 mods: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyScorpion Posted March 28 Author Report Share Posted March 28 (edited) 5 hours ago, smozoma said: Je ne suis pas sûr qu'il y aura un jeu plus facile qu'un mod NHL'94. Vous avez juste besoin d'apprendre le mouvement "coupure de graisse" et ensuite aller à partir de là. Voir la vidéo suivante. "coupure de la graisse" à 4h10. La clé est de maintenir le bouton de prise de vue jusqu'à ce qu'il tire automatiquement (ne le touchez pas et maintenez-le jusqu'à ce qu'il tire.). Parfois, il est difficile de dépasser le D, mais c'est le moyen le plus simple de marquer probablement n'importe quel match de la LNH dans l'histoire. Skatez sur les planches, puis patinez sur le net et maintenez le bouton de tir. Le gardien tombe automatiquement sur la glace lorsque vous finissez la fronde. "slot slapshot" à 1:55. Vous devez faire attention lorsque vous commencez le tir, ne soyez pas trop tôt ou trop tard. Assurez-vous d'utiliser un joueur avec une puissance de tir d'au moins 70 afin de maîtriser le gardien de but. Une précision de tir >60 l'aidera à ne pas manquer le filet trop souvent. Encore une fois, maintenez le bouton de tir jusqu'à ce qu'il tire, ne le touchez pas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNaViT01WcE I Tested NHL Legacy on RPCS3 and NHL 2009 on Xenia one time and it's more playable and less frustrating than NHL 2004. No matter the modded version of NHL 94 it's too hard for me. Plus, I can't stand the controls of the Sega Genesis. NHL 94 it's too limited because you can't play exhibition matches. 5 hours ago, Sean said: Je me sens particulièrement qualifié pour répondre à cette question, en tant que personne qui modait beaucoup ici et qui est maintenant passée à NHL Legacy Edition. Il n'y a que 3 (à ma connaissance) mods en cours de tous les matchs après 2k10 dans la LNH. 2KHS est un mod de NHL 2k11 sur Wii, mais la disponibilité du téléchargement est sporadique - je n'ai rien d'autre qu'il’s worth poking around. Des réglages complets du moteur et tout, it’s a marvel. NHL Legacy Rebuilt est un mod de travail en cours qui a eu quelques versions avec des textures et des listes mises à jour dans le jeu pour ( vous l'avez deviné ) NHL Legacy Edition, mais en ce moment, ils ont réduit tous leurs téléchargements et ont travaillé “ dans les coulisses ”. Mon mod, qui a eu une sorte de test alpha fermé le mois dernier, College Hockey Faceoff est également de la LNH Legacy, mais si vous n'êtes pas dans la NCAA, ce n'est peut-être pas votre vitesse. Voici un lien: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BoKWfpkfKmyRdgN94_ZukVfkLJ2GvZvS. Très incomplet, mais attend une autre sortie ce printemps avec la plupart des équipes de la grande marque, pas seulement la côte est. Les mods pour ces jeux modernes sont très rares, car il n'y a pas un énorme tirage comme College Football Revamped ou College Hoops 2K Reborn car le hockey est un sport plus petit. En tant que personne qui a construit / utilisé 3 PC et vu ces jeux émulés sur chacun d'eux, NHL Legacy est de loin le jeu de sport intensif le plus CPU que j'ai vu, de sorte que l'exigence de puissance empêche beaucoup de gens qui seraient autrement intéressés. Ooooh, a mod in NHL Legacy, that's interesting. Speaking of 2KHS, I follow the Facebook page of this game. It's fun sometimes to play the Montreal Canadiens against Laval Rocket, HC Davos, CSKA Moscow or any other non-NHL team in an exhibition match but not in just any conditions. The fact remains that I am better at soccer than at hockey Edited March 28 by LadyScorpion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smozoma Posted March 28 Report Share Posted March 28 Vous pouvez jouer des matches exhibition dans NHL'94. C'est l'option "Regular Season". C'est juste 1 match, pas un mode de 84 matches. Mais si vous n'aimez pas les controles, je comprend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when I played Sonic back in the day, I couldn't get used to the controls of the Sega Genesis. Edited March 28 by LadyScorpion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyScorpion Posted April 1 Author Report Share Posted April 1 (edited) I found a modded NHL 2007 for PSP/PPSSPP but it's impossible to score, I have more frustration than fun and I end all matches by rage quit. Why NHL games from 90s and 2000s are so hard and frustrating? Edited April 1 by LadyScorpion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
