Game didn't crash and everything changed back to normal after july game update.archibalduk wrote:Wow! Nice work! Let me know how it goes.
Yes after every July update.archibalduk wrote:I expect you have to apply whatever fix you have created each time you reload the game (or at least when you reach the January and July updates).
It ain't that easy. I changed the limit to 2000 pro games yet most of players were veterans anyway.archibalduk wrote:
N America: ECHL
008F 5473 = Number of pro games played threshold for veteran players (note this is a 2-byte integer. I.e. the hex number spans 008F 5473 - 5474)
008F 5478 = Max veteran players with more than 260 pro games played dressed. The number of games played threshold can be adjusted via 008F 5473

Especially you Archi, that's a LOT of utilities you're working on! FYI There's a 3 page thread started last fall that IIRC includes roster rules for the 11/12 season http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... =13&t=8277Hobbit13 wrote:Btw has any compiled what the roster rules are for like the 11/12 or 12/13 season, by chance?
Welcome back! Please write offsets of the roster rules or anything you found so that I can research myself and forward any info to Archi. Did you try the new version of our league patch? It works like a charm and I already told Archi how to modify the German-related import rules. Come on, I really want to remove this darn import limit in Austria.Hobbit13 wrote:Yeah after coming back from Peru, I went straight to uni and I never really had time there to do anything EHM related...
However I have now found out how to edit roster rules! I haven't tried removing/overwriting them just yet but I have been successful in changing the values! For some weird reason when I went over some of the notes that I took before, I found I had written two commands under a "roster rules" section. I tried finding them for a specific league, changing them and voila it works! It's also regulated in the memory that is loaded by EHM (similarly to lineup rules). I have yet to find if there is a section in the exe that specifies the offset and also how it differs if there are different roster rules in the same country. Also it seems to take effect whenever you start up EHM, so you have to edit the values before you start a new game/load a game.
But anyways first good news already! Btw has any compiled what the roster rules are for like the 11/12 or 12/13 season, by chance?
Well so far it's looking like that league rules (i.e. match rules like fighting misconducts, icing, OT rules, etc.) are configured by one command. So putting in one value sets specific match rules, which would mean the specification of what rules to be linked to that value must be explained somewhere completely different... I still have to test whether what I said is true (since I'm starting to learn Assembly language but I can't say I'm 100% certain of what's happening) but sadly that's what it looks like. I'd have to delve even deeper into the code and I think I first need to understand the code a bit better...archibalduk wrote:Wow! It didn't take you long!
Will you eventually be looking at league rules and structures, or do you plan just to look at roster rules?
I came to similar conclusions. There's the total amount of games played per season, and changing this might change games played per round??? Example: WHL ---- 756.18,3,1,109,105..18,3,1,7,6. So 756 is the total amount and 18,3 is the date. The third number seems to be the year, because everything before January is 0, so all of this is just rules for the game to create the schedule each time a new season is set up. There's still a numerological mountain to climb in order to figure out what the two remaining numbers mean. The WHL has 21 teams and only 18 different numbers are used here(100-109 and 0 to 7), so who knows. By comparing this set of data to the data from another league, one might be able to crack this.Hobbit13 wrote:So lately I have been looking at schedules and playoffs. I now understand how the schedule is programmed; each part only essentially says the date and if a game is at a different date than the rest of the round, it is explained. However in each of the dates it doesn't actually say how many games are meant to played that day. Therefore I assume that it is programmed what the "default" amount of games there is in each round (so for a 10 team league it would be 5 games). I think once I find this, we should be able to easily expand leagues (well at least ones that aren't split into conferences and divisions) so that all teams are included in the schedule. However so far I haven't found where this could be located and I think it's gonna be pretty hard to find...
Of course, I was looking at the wrong set of numbers. The game still seems to add a few random games here and there, since the amount of games correlates with the amount of entries per date up to a certain point. On some dates there seems to be a few more games played and these differ from one game to another.Lazion wrote:Last two numbers are team ID's.. Not the ones from DB.
Those are kind of rolling numbers which are given to teams by alphabetical order.
Each division is getting own set of numbers. Let's say that there's two divisions in league (A & B) Teams in A div gets number set 1-99 and teams in B div gets 100-199.
And if teams in B div are called as AT and BT the AT's ID is 100 and BT's ID is 101.
I will do my best to work on a new patch file as soon as I can. I couldn't agree more! Well done!archibalduk wrote:WOW! This is absolutely incredible! Fantastic work!
Again, I couldn't agree more! HaHaarchibalduk wrote:It would be absolutely great in the future to have some sort of tutorial on how you went about doing all of this.
