Can one see from the arena editing screen which clubs have the arena as their home rink?

No, I'm afraid not. However, I have some code from the Updater v3 for creating a spreadsheet showing this - I'll try to remember to copy this over to the Editor for the next version.

That would be highly appreciated.

Are you planning to add "Delete" function to the editor?

Yes eventually. But I need to first fully decode the DB in order to do so.

great job with editor!

[Exarz]

Great editor!

However, it would be nice if you could add the option to search teams by league! It simplifies things a lot when you want teams to switch leagues etc!

[Exarz]

I discovered a glitch: I added some teams to the KHL and moved some teams to other leagues to keep the league in the right amount of teams. However, the information and standings are wrong, as they still contain the other teams. In the player statistics and in the schedule, the new teams and their players are in.


I put Metallurg Nk in the Russian Vysshaya Liga and replaced them with a new team (Beijing Dragons)


I put Medvescak back in EBEL (I also made EBEL have the right amount of teams) and Vityaz in the Russian Vysshaya Liga. I replaced them with AIK Hockey and Eisbären Berlin


Here's what it looks like in the information tab

Hi, i downloaded the editor and i can only get to the games default databases. I have downloaded the TBL 8.1 which is updated and all but can load it into the editor. What could i be doing wrong? I can find the TBL 8.1 folder no problem, however the files are not (.DB)...

You need to use the Import function in EHM to generate the DB file.

Agreed. Whenever i try to do that, the dialog box is empty. I mean, when i click ''Import Database : Import an EHM 2007 format database'' there is a dialog box, called Choose Database. Nothing is there. I must've forgotten a step somewhere..

[Pepito9198]

Archie, i found how... silly me i was such in a hurry if forgot the most important step: unzipping the file
now part two of the question, can we remove the salary cap?

OK, so i was able to load the 8.1 DB update nto the editor. I saved my work under a different name. Now cant load a new game with it... it's already a .DB file, so i assume no need to import? I ''unziped'' it but not sure what that step is for exactly...

Yes this was raised previously IIRC. The database has some new tables that weren't in EHM 2007 and relate to things such as league rules, structures and schedules. These were hardcoded in EHM 2007 and are now editable via the DB in EHM 1. However, I don't know the structures for these tables yet and so we cannot edit them in the Editor. I suspect some of those tables are affecting which leagues teams are placed in. The only way to get around it at the moment is to use the import_config.cfg file before importing the EHM 2007 format database. See here: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... 70#p199124

You need to edit the transfer_rules.cfg file located in the same folder as your database.db file. Open the file using Notepad.

You need to save the file as database.db as this, to my knowledge, is the only way for the database to appear in game.

I'm not sure what you mean about unzipping. I wonder if you mean the Unpack button in the Editor. You don't need to use this. Just use the button entitled "Save".

[Edgars]

Yes eventually. But I need to first fully decode the DB in order to do so.

OK - thank you - keep up the great work!

[A9L3E]

I really wonder why Riz is not helping you with decoding the database. It could save him some work in adding more playable leagues and potentially boost the game sales.

[Pepito9198]

Archie: Very good, it worked!!! thanks!

[JakeTheSnake]

Archie, you said in this discussion (and there's also a note about it on the editor) that we should make backups of our databases/saved games.
Does that mean i can edit my saved games in some way with the editor?

How? I can't seem to find any way to open a saved game with the editor.

[archibalduk]

That's right; you can edit saved games but only with version 0.0.3 onwards. Sounds like you might have the older version still. Just download the latest version here:

http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi ... 48&t=16014

You'll see there is an Open Saved Game button next to the Open Database button

[JakeTheSnake]

Fantastic!
Thank you!

Archibalduk: I know it cant be done now, but are you going to add some league editing tools to the editor? Like changing/removing salary cap, max contract lenght etc? i know it can be done before a game but what about a save game?

[zbguy]

Thanks for the save-game editing, Archi. It works very nicely with EHMAssistant!

I don't really know. It depends on whether and how much of the league editing I can implement into the Editor (the table structures are complex) and then whether the league rules are stored in the same way in the saved game as the database (as the database editing functions are my priority). Each database editing screen in the Editor will load any such data in the saved game too. But the saved games don't always store the data in the same way which means they won't appear in the Editor - see for example the Affiliations editing screen (you'll see it's blank/empty in the saved game because the data is stored elsewhere and in a different format).

Hi. I dunno if this is already answered somewhere. But can someone give me instructions (if it is possible) how to export my own team (Toronto atm) to .csv without getting the whole database or all the players that exists? I just want an export of my own team but I have no idea what im doing wrong. I use the latest version, got the vcredist installed and I managed to edit some weight on a player that I wanted to do also but the exporting player part just doesn't work for me.. I wish I could use both EHM EA assistant but now that the game is updated I cant use the assistant anymore. Any help is appreciated.

I think I posted this in the wrong forum before. Sorry.
