Eastside Hockey Manager - Part IX Maybe 1.5 Edition?

[archibalduk]

Since the TBL is down, is there any other site where I can download logos for faceoff dot ? I checked steam workshop but nothing there.

Assuming I don't have to work this weekend, I hope to be able to migrate the site over to our new hosts this weekend. Hopefully we might be back online by the end of Monday...

When starting with newest rosters my game crashes during startup when I select large or full database ?! What exactly is diffirence between normal and large/full. I am asking since I always played with full one.

 

[filip85]

Heck, now even when I put database on normal sometimes during game startup game simply crashes. Not every time, but like 5 out of 10. Never experienced something like that in EHM. I selected only two leagues, SHL and KHL.

It's the extra_config parsing code, you just have to fight with it, or if you are mainly playing as a European GM and don't care about NA draft pick, salary penalities, resignings or anything you can delete the extra_config file. If you open it in Notepad or similar you can see what it adds, not applicable for all sims.

Is there any way to edit the schedule in a saved game? I just notice that there's 3 games in 3 days for a bunch of NHL teams in November for whatever reason, and I'd rather fix that than just let it happen.

The site has now migrated to the new host, so we should hopefully be back up and running. The forum and main Wordpress site appear accessible but the wiki is not. I'll try to fix that tomorrow.

Whilst I'm able to log in, I'm getting an "access forbidden" error when trying to access the forum admin control panel. I expect this relates to the firewall. If anybody cannot access the forum then let me know in this thread, the EHM Reddit or Twitter.

Nope

1) You need to reload the BKmodern skin every time you start a game for the full color changes to take effect. For whatever reason, the default EHM colors in the header will remain even if you boot up EHM and it is already on the BKmodern skin. So when you start the game, switch the skin to traditional and back to BKmodern for full effect.

Is it something to do with being in BETA phase or is it simply "hardcoded" stuff ?

Hardcoded.

• Changing database version now changes both of the Current Version and Original Version settings;
• Clauses fields are now true/false settings;
• Corrected the club histories export spreadsheet which was exporting the Loss and Tie columns the wrong way round;
• Corrected the Database Settings title from Header to Settings;
• Corrected the Nation field on the Editor screen which would flag Afghanistan (id #0) as invalid;
• Enabled fractional DPI scaling;
• Extended the log text file limit to 300 lines from 150 lines;
• Fixed bug with the Player filter resetting when trying to filter by Club Drafted and Club Rights;
• Fixed minor issue with the Editor attempting to delete zero rows from the Contract Details table if there are no records which require deletion;

• Widened tab sizes slightly (delete the stylesheet.css file for changes to take effect).

Thank you for reporting this. I've taken a look and have fixed our redirect pages (such as the ehmtheblueline.com/editor redirect which now correctly redirects to the correct page on the TBL forums).

Hardcoded.

Maybe You should ask Riz if it is possible for him to de-hardcode this for 1.6 update

The FMF file which has all the hard-coded graphics stuff is apparently locked for licensing reasons so I don't think it will ever be able to be edited unless somebody creates a tool which can extract and re-pack the file.

Ah, too bad...

Can you link me your latest NHL 32 (Quebec) DB ? I can't find it.

Ooof - I haven't updated that in FOREVER. I plan on doing a complete database overhaul soon (well, I've started actually) but it's going to take months to complete.

Best bet is for somebody to take the newest Pivot rosters and adjust the NHL and AHL for Seattle and Palm Springs to be added...if somebody wants to do that and use my 32 team NHL structure as a guide (simply open both databases in separate editor instances and adjust NHL settings and structure and export/import schedule templates in Pivot to match the NHL32 database) - they are free to use my old NHL32 as a guide for that. Or maybe @xECK29x has already done a version like this, I haven't followed this thread in a long time so not sure if there is a 32-team Pivot roster floating around or not.

I can supply Seattle Kraken color and logos and Palm Springs (placeholder) info and logos if needed to match dani9's logo format.

I know you just got back in the game (pun intended lol) but how was the feedback on the WHA2 concept? I know I tested it a long while back and it worked fine for the time being..

I'd love to get my hands on those logos!

Also sorry, but does anyone have the old nhl32x database? I got a new computer recently so I no longer have the file, and the link on EHM claims the file is no longer there.

No, he is ranked in top 10 for the upcoming QMJHL draft.

is that even possible in this game?
