I have a League Database base off 92 on Steam with USA as one Conference and Canada as the other and add Orlando and San Diego as Teams but can't get past League in starting a new Game.

EHM 1 Database & Saved Game Editor: BUG REPORTS & FEATURE REQUESTS

Post by Mgomrjsurf »

Also I noticed after I save and go start a new Game and get League Error Message and go back into Editor for Rules and Structure NHL just shows up for all and did not add any Divisions other then move Teams around and added Totems and Scouts but Teams at 33 and yes 16 in Western Conference and 17 in Eastern Conference so should their be even number of Teams in each League.
Also shouldn't have to Exit to load another League.

Yes I knew that but your just subscribing to it on Steam and no need to Download if he post an Update. At least he got NHL the way it should be so don't have to update Schedule if redo Divisions but get a Custom League Schedule Error and shouldn't because didn't move Teams from one League to another just added Divisions so for 4 in each League.

I'm splitting this off from the NHLX Thread as this isn't really relevant to that.

If you change the number of teams OR the number of divisions in the NHL then you have to update the NHL Schedule Template too (via the Schedules screen in the Editor). This is because the codes in the schedules relate to the team and the division.

The Schedule Templates use a number referencing system in order to reference the division and club. This consists of the Division Prefix and a Club Suffix. The Club Suffix for the first club of any division is 0, the second club is 1, the third is 2, etc (the should be thought of in alphabetical order when determining which club is the first club in a division). You then add the Division Suffix to the Club Suffix to get the reference number. So the first club (Club Suffix = 0) of the first division (Division Prefix = 0xx) would be 000 (which would be truncated to 0). Here are a couple of other examples:
ReferenceDescription
0The first club (0) of the first division (0xx)
1The second club (1) of the first division (0xx)
100 The first club (0) of the second division (1xx)
101 The second club (1) of the second division (1xx)
812 The thirteenth club (12) of the ninth division (8xx)
You will also need to check through the Rules & Structures screen for the NHL to check that you update any settings that relate to the number of games played and potentially the number of stages (if you have added another stage).

You might also want to take a my tutorial here which provides a bit more detail on creating a four division league as it might provide some pointers: https://www.reddit.com/r/EHM/comments/b ... _playable/

Thanks will do try that. Also that League with only changing some League Rules like Roster Size limit and so on that can go to 999 besides having Monarchs Players contacted to OKC Blazers get League Dara Error.
For League Structure editing OTTP/Franchise Hockey Manager tbe best.
