Polish Hockey League expansion

Post by Loverboymk »

Howdy all readers!

I have decided to play around with rosters and make a little update for Polish Hockey League.
At the moment am using TBL Rosters 9.6 [2015/2016] as it had Polish League playable already.

So, am at the stage of creating competitions with schedules alike the NHL (expanding team numbers from 11 to 30 - which is not easy!) with higher amount of teams and games. I'm joining teams from original Polish Elite League in TBL update with teams from Polish First League. And, because it's still not enough, I will create some teams playing in PHL, Polish First League as well as Polish Second League (tier 3rd) in season 2015/2016 to much up the numbers.

The structure will be mirrored with NHL with 4 divisions and 2 conferences. I'll try to schedule 82 games a seaon + playoffs and will try to have Polish Hockey League All-Stars games as well. It takes some time to get it work so I will try and "copy" as much as I can NHL schedule template just to get my work a little bit easier :-D

I will add some players to playable teams (may not be real as it will take me a lot of time to create all of them and most of the teams in current Polish First League are juniors born on or after year 2000 or 2001). If I can find real players I'll transfer the to the teams and if not, I will put into some free players from the database.

As soon as I will get it running I'll post the link to my database so you can try it out =P~

I hope the final result will be quite good.

Will post update soon.

UPDATE:

I have created Polish Hockey League with 2 conferences: Western Conference and Eastern Conference. Each conference contain 2 divisions: WESTERN CONFERENCE: Northwest Division, Southwest Division
EASREN CONFERENCE: Northeast Division, Southeast Division.

In both conferences there is all together 30 teams, EASTERN CONFERENCE - 16, WESTERN CONFERENCE - 14.

I have created all stages needed for this type of league structure but when game loading I'm getting errors about schedules. So, I think that I will need to do a Schedule Template to this type of league structure.

I will work to fix this error and post new update as soon as I'll get it done.

Little Update to my post

I was able to create a league with 30 teams devided into 2 conferences and 4 divisions.
To have it more realistic have created few additional U20 teams and did affiliations to main league clubs so each club has got at least one U20 farm team.

And have added a little bit of different affiliations to PHL clubs from different leagues. Some of the clubs are missing affiliations (this is time consuming process, as must check in editor which clubs are inactive to not bond them to other clubs).

And last but not least, have added few clubs to unplayable Polish First League and "lifted up" potential for all the players in PHL clubs.

But, before will post database itself, first must test it for at least a season long and see if there is no crashes in the game.
