NHL94 Season mode (beta version)

[banjo]

Hi everyone!

I (with lots of help from ai tools) have made a HTML app that runs locally and that basically works as a season mode for NHL94. So it's pretty tech neutral and will run in any browser.

 

The game schedule is the exact same as the real season 1993-94, the rosters are based on the Genesis rosters. 

You just pick a team and start the season, you play the game "for real" on your system and then report it into the app in your browser (goals, assists and penalties). You can also simulate the game. There's a save and export file function as well. I really hope it works. 

I've tested it a lot and I think that the results and player stats should be as realistic as possible. 

Also, because the game is just HTML, CSS and JS it is per definition open source. If you find bugs or wanna do improvements go ahead. 

I've been working on a Playoff app as well, but since my experience in coding is limited I've been having trouble with that. Hopefully this can be done soon. 

 

Mind that this is a beta version, so there might be bugs. Please tell me if you find any. 

 

Installation: 

Just download the Index.html, Script.js and Styles.css. Put the files in the same folder, run index.html on any browser

Wow! Cool idea! It's there possibly to reduce number of teams and totally rename all of them?

Can the rosters be updated per season?

Renaming the teams is pretty easy. You'll find the rosters and the team names in script.js (open in a text editor). 

Reducing the number of teams can be a bit tricky tho. But go ahead and try and adjust the schedule. Let me know how it went

The rosters found in script.js are free to play around with, just open in a text editor and change the names and ratings of the players. There you can change the name of Quebec to Colorado too if you like, or just "move" Mats Sundin to Toronto and so on. It wont affect your actual game though, just the simulation in the app.

This is pretty cool! Something like this was done in the past for SNES but the tool has been broken awhile. The OP has been AWOL for the last 10+ years too. Here's the link in case you wanted to check it out. I've also included screenshots of each page within the tool. We're able to download it but can't import any ROMs as you'll get a runtime error.

So do you have to input the stats manually? How does it work?

Yep, I'm aware that this exists. However it's only for the SNES version and it's pc only.

This season mode is basically like a html website that you run locally in your browser, making it compatible with any OS and also pretty resilient to OS upgrades

Okay so let's say you're playing with the Blues. In the first game you beat Florida 3-0. First, you fill in the result and then press submit. That will give you a pop up where you report goals, assists and PIMs for each player.  You do this for both teams. The app will then keep track on the points through out the season. See screenshots.

Right on. It was more so to provide some insight into other features that could be added to your tool if they weren't already in there.

Yeah my first ideas for the Season mode was a lot more ambitious, including goalie stats and a playoff mode. But since my experience in coding is limited the code got too messy and fragile so I decided to make it as simple as possible.

Hello everyone. 

 

I have now fixed two major bugs connected to the save/export/continue functions. 

The bug where games get a NaN result after importing a save should be fixed now. Also the bug where the game wants you to report a game twice should be fixed too.
