Hi all,

Apologies if i'm posting this in the wrong place. I've recently re-installed EHM 2007 through Steam after having not played it for many years. I'm a bit of a technophobe, so don't really understand what i'm downloading and where to. Essentially, i like playing the EIHL (British league) and will eventually play the NHL. I just wondered what's the most recent roster update for the EIHL? I've tried reading many threads/posts on here but still don't fully understand it.

I'd like to download the rosters, facepacks and anything else to make the game play enjoyable.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Scott

You can download pretty much everything from the Steam Workshop. Here's the main items:

ROSTERS
Premier Pivot Rosters: These are frequently updated as and when transactions occur in real life, ensuring that you have the very latest rosters.
TBL Rosters: These are based on the Premier Pivot Rosters but transactions are frozen as at the beginning of the season. Updates are slightly less frequent.

GRAPHICS
Dani's logo megapack: This is compatible with both sets of rosters.
There's various facepacks, but the Cut-out Megapack is probably the most current and biggest available and you might also want the Staff Facepack too.

Greetings!

I have a really noob question. I have imported the EHM 2007 database into the EHM, but when I start a new game then I can only choose a maximum of four leagues, the rest of them are disappeared. Is this normal, or I made some mistake when I imported the database?

What DB did you import and did you make any changes?

I imported the original database of the EHM 2007, I copied the necessary files from the original EHM 2007 directory. I didn't make any changes.

When you say "four leagues", do you mean four leagues or four nations? IIRC there's only a few nations' worth of leagues which are active on the standard EHM 2007 DB import - e.g. Canada, USA, Finland and Sweden. So that'd be right. If you want more, I'd suggest using this instead: viewtopic.php?t=20224
