[2019-20] xECK29x Premier Pivot Rosters (v4.9) - 1/22/20)

[xECK29x]

EBEL (Austrian). Is it possible to remove Medvescak who wont play next season or would that change structure and possibly break the game?

This would alter the leagues structure, is there a team taking their place and is there a schedule released for 2019-20 yet? If so can you link me to it?

Nevermind found it: https://www.scoreboard.com/hockey/austr ... /fixtures/

Will work on this now, will be in this afternoons update as long as it tests ok, no promises though as it looks like the playoff format changes.

[haneman]

Thank you for adding the Danish league again

they play against each team 6 times and not just 4
if it is possible to change this

Yes will update, are you talking about regular reason or playoff rounds?

Takling about regular season
Playoff is Best of 7 in all rounds

Looks like this will need a bit more work, may have to make it non-playable for the next update while we work on it a bit more.

Game crashes for me at June 25th 2020. Anyone else have this problem or know what to do about it? Running it on a Mac through PlayOnMac.

No crashes for me yet, I'm in the 2023 season. Do you have all leagues selected? Cause if you do - don't.

@xECK29x - Some AHL teams play only 76 games or so, it was some division I can't remember from the top of my head.
Many weird trades happening early on in the saves, must be the AI cap management.
Playing the save as Minnesota, noticed they didn't have Kirill Kaprizov's rights in the start of the sim.
Many top-end prospects coming out from all over the world in the early years, including non-hockey countries. Is this because of the added prospect generator? I wouldn't mind them if they were only a few here and there, but in this save there's always a top 10 pick from ie. Romania, Japan, Serbia etc!

The AHL schedule is correct, some teams play less games (Pacific Division) they base their standings on points percentage because of this. The new Seattle AHL team in Palm Springs, CA will help balance it out in the future.

I'll have to add a future transfer for Kaprizov as his rights auto-expire in the game, same issue with Sorokin, will fix.

Yes that is from the prospect generator, I'm going to trim out some of the non-traditional hockey markets in the next release just decided to have some fun with it but I understand it can get a little "too fantasy" for some players.

Very likely this is because you have all leagues selected but let me know if that is not the case!

[Beau19]

Thanks for Medveščak!

One more thing (maybe I looked wrong) but is Slovan Bratislava still in KHL? They left the league and for now they aren't even officially accepted into Slovak league. Will update you how that ends.

I don't have all the leagues selected, but I've managed to get around it. Created a new gm, started out unemployed, was able to continue past the 25th and then just retired with the second gm!

Next update sometime during the last week of July.

Hi, great work with the database.

Is it possible to download the last version of the 2018-2019 database?
Cause when subscribe on steam it will only be it's only possible to play with 4 version.

Hello, greetings from the UK.
Just returned back to EHM after trying with HFM (contrary to popular opinion, despite its cuteness, and fantastic editor within "commission mode" felt like EHM lite) and with this added update, and the fantastic humungous Face Pack, it's like a new game!

I read that I had to download /extract, but I simply subscribed to this data base via steam, and it looks like its worked a treat.
Lifelong Capitals fan but playing in the SEL (just for something "new") and heading into pre season, it looks great.
I read that there may be a new update.
Would it be worth me hanging on I wonder.
Thank you so much for everything!!

Eck, curious like everyone else I'm sure ... will we get an update with player ratings tweaks soon?

[xECK29x]

khl, league game win = 3 points, OT/SO win = 2 points, OT/SO loss = 1 point.

Thanks, will fix

Eck, curious like everyone else I'm sure ... will we get an update with player ratings tweaks soon?

I'm always tweaking ratings, but the only areas that have been completely overhauled are: OHL, QMJHL, WHL, Danish ML, SHL and Allsvenskan. KHL to come soon and I'll be updating NHL/AHL/ECHL completely again during training camp.

[ZaZooM]

Ohhh, sorry, Khl win=2 points, not 3, from last season. I forget about it after more than 10 eyars with 3 points.
My mistake.

Haha no worries, that's what I thought that they adopted the NHL points system a year ago or so
