Eastside Hockey Manager - Part X Patch 1.5 Edition! (April 22nd Open Beta)

[H3ckt1k]

I think the database is in the best state its ever been, we have some fixes coming out within a week or so but I'm also pretty biased.

Are the fixes out/coming out in the next day or two? Off work for a few days and would love to start a new save with whatever changes are coming

No not until the weekend at the earliest, holiday weekend planning on doing a lot of editing, also waiting on some PG fixes.

I still have a bunch of NHL orgs that could use help with re-rates. This is open to any team in any league!

 

[ItWasJustified]

Here is a snippet of the new tiers and where that 60 falls in. I would want to ask 1) is this a young player? 2) is this a player with little SHL experience as the re-rates use career histories and an algorithm to determine final CA vs a players peers. The tiering of the leagues is based on the NHLe model Rethinking NHLe.

The worst team in Hockeyallsvenskan would blow out every CHL and NCAA team.

Happy to raise the Good-Average-Poor levels to 90-70-50 and bump it to the top of tier 5.

Hi xECK29x !

Tanks for you re very appreciate work on the DB.

Here is a change for you : in the swiss league, "HC Valais Chablais Martigny" is playing in the "Swiss League" instead as "SC Langenthal" who are playing in "MySport Hockey League" > simply switch the two teams.

Also maybe you can change the import rule for the "National League" to 6 import players on ice (dressés) BUT 7 import players allowed. And for the "Swiss League", 2 imports dressed and 3 in the roster.

Swiss teams normally have 7 imports to barry injuries.

By the way, i m currently working on a re-rating of the swiss leagues : CA, PA, position, OF, DF and role.
I will work on players preferences, affiliations and clubs too.
I will try to change salaries and clubs budgets too.

Can I share my work to you (DB or spreedsheet) ?

Thanks, yes please reach out to me via DM or on Steam/Discord to coordinate, I'd love to incorporate your work as we do not have an active Swiss researcher and I can provide some guidance for recommended CA/PA for each league.

That person could be you!

 

[Treb]

That person could be you!

Well Montreal was not listed and I can't claim to be a good evaluator hockey wide, but there is a few thing I could point out if you have no one else.

Thanks for your hard work! It's a rather minor issue to be sure, but I've noticed that trying to open the Swedish U20 Division 1 league page always crashes the game in these versions.

Usually due to a bad transfer rule, I’ll take a look. Thanks for reporting

 

[ItWasJustified]

Two days ago and yesterday the game shut down for me when I tried to get past 6th July 2024. Tried both to be on vacation and just clicking continue for each day. Also tried both my edited Premier Pivot Rosters v8.7.0 database and an unedited one.

Then I reloaded the edited saved game and tried and now it shuts down when I try to go past 17th July 2024. All leagues selected and enhanced and full database.

 

[xECK29x]

All leagues selected and enhanced and full database.

This is why, please read the recommended setup options on the Workshop page.

I think I have fixed this, pushing a patch.

 

[ItWasJustified]

This is why, please read the recommended setup options on the Workshop page.

I see. I've played with way more than 40 leagues before without getting a hard crash past a certain date before. I believe into the 2040s. Do you know if it's inevitable that it can't get past a certain date if I play with more than 20 leagues or is it more of a recommended number? Because I'll like to play with as many leagues possible.

20 is the recommended number, all those settings do is load up the more detailed day to day simulation and full transfer rules, it does not remove those clubs/players from the DB if you use the "Full" database size.

 

[xECK29x]

Updated TBL (start of season DB) has been sent to Archi for upload.

Change list:

• Incorporates all fixes/updates from Pivot since the October "start of season" release.
• Does not include players/staff added to the database since start of season update to reduce potential duplicates.
• Some inaccuracies may be found, please kindly report them!
• Please follow recommended setup options for Pivot

 

[xECK29x]

Pushed a fix to Pivot a crash condition which would occur if you selected a Swedish league due to a illogical transfer rule condition. TBL should be updated soon too.

Hi guys,

Just curious if anyone has their hands on the old Barrage Tactics file? The link on EHM Blueline doesn't work anymore.
