Just wanted to say, it isn't as daunting and complicated as it seems, so long as you have another league to base your settings/schedule off of.
We broke our heads over more than a second round qualifying stages with odd number of teams or bronze medal games with teams coming from different divisions in more than single occasions for days
But really all it takes is some practice and having simple rules won't hurt

Yeah, that's a level of complexity I don't know that I'll get into even. That's one of the perks of North American leagues I guess, ultimately they're not that involved or complicated (only two stages I guess -- season and then straight-forward playoffs, and no promotion/relegation, so no need to link leagues, etc). Self-contained, mostly.
I just wanted to encourage people to try it if they're interested. Reading the pages of this thread as you've gone along, it seemed so daunting as the pages of posts began piling up. But once I actually cracked it open to do it, I could flip between leagues and compare settings and logic out most all of it to get what I wanted. It takes some time, no doubt. I think I spent two hours just doing a simple new league, so I could make sure I didn't miss anything and to figure a few things out (it took me a while to figure out that a league needs a governing body to be playable, for instance, that was maybe my single biggest hurdle I came across).
Now that I've done it, it's time to go in and start seeing how far I can push things, and what effect they have on things already in the game. Adding whole new playable leagues is a big game-changer IMHO. And as people get more schedule matrices out there, it'll be even easier.
I used to spend so much time in the 2007 Pregame Editor trying to make things work or happen that were not intended, that honestly was part of the fun of 2007 for me. I spent more time in the editor modding things than even playing for quite a while (making a best-of global league, making NCAA Playable, resurrecting old leagues to replace other dead leagues, etc)
If I can make all-new leagues with this editor, a lot of other people can to. It just takes an afternoon say to hash it all out.

A thing that would help is clearer error codes... an error like "mismatch in the number of teams for stage 0" doesn't mean much...

Hello!
What does Extra Team Start Index means in Stages - Schedule Dates?
I have a problem with organisation of Latvijas Virsliga, where at all 7 teams, and 7 plaing in play-off.
I have select 1 team as promoted, 6 teams as Playoff (top), but while testing of this update, there are "mismatch in the number of teams for stage 0" error. Perhaps, I have to select another Extra Team Start Index to correct it, but I don't understand what does it means?

For now (from what I remember) we have made as they are IRL:
VHL
VHLB
MHL
MHL B
MHL SuperCup & All-Star Games
Belarus Extraliga
Belarusian Cup
Polish Elite League
Czech DHL Junior League (Major U20)
Latvijas Virsliga
Federal Hockey League
DEL2
French Magnus League
French Second League
MOL League
Those leagues are fully designed. We think also about few North American and more EU leagues but still need to think how to create some of them and help with rules (especially Canadian minor junior leagues) will be appreciate.

Maybe we can join our efforts? I have already create VHL, VHLB, MHL, MHLB, Belarus Extraliga, Belarus Vysshaya League, Kazakhstan Championship, Ukrainian Hockey League, Lithuanian Hockey League, Estonian Hockey League with real rules and real schedules.
But I can't still create Latvijas Virsaliga and Latvijas 1 liga with real rules.

Archi, I'm not sure if this is a problem of the editor or the game (I think the latter, but I prefer asking). If you change a team's status fro Junior to Professional, for example, the DB saves it (close and reload show updated information), but the game does not retain the new status. I have screenshots if it's not clear.
Can you have a look?

I've got a quick question, what do the team IDs represent in the schedule templates tab under club competitions? I would like to try and update the NHL roster but I have no idea what for example the Washington Capital's ID is.

The team IDs in a schedule template represent a generic team in a division of the league it is specified for. It is for league structure, not specific teams.
For example, lets say the first conference for the NHL is the East and the first division in that conference is the Metropolitan. Since there are eight teams in that division, the team IDs for that division would be 000-007 (the first digit representing that it is the first division in the first conference in the league starting from 0, and the remaining two digits representing the teams in that division again starting from 0). So the second division (the Atlantic) would then be 100-107, and so on with the other two divisions. When the schedule is generated, the teams in the division replace these IDs and a schedule is made for that team.
In other words, updating specific teams through schedule templates isn't possible. If you want to update rosters, you would have to go to each player and change the team they're contracted to/playing for.

The IDs for the teams in the schedule templates is roughly as ebenton99 mentions above except that the IDs do point to a particular team (at least in the first season). The teams are ordered alphabetically and then the first team is 0, the second team is 1, etc. Where a league has divisions, the teams are grouped into their divisions and sorted alphabetically within each division. The divisions are sorted according to the order they appear in the Editor - in the case of the NHL it's: Atlantic = 0, Metropolitan = 1, Central = 2 and Pacific = 3.
There is a much fuller explanation here:

Well I've filled in October and all the games I have filled in are correct. For these tests I removed the rest of the games that I hadn't changed. No crashes and I was able to sim all the way to the entry draft. I'll try and get to at least January by the end of today
Have you been able to update the schedule in the 9.1 Feb. 4 Roster update? If not I can put the edited database up on OneDrive for you.
