If you put those croats in a list we can input them in the next version of the database
I am affraid that my work wouldn't be 100% correct. I am giving second nationalities to all guys whose surnames sound croatian. Many of them could be serbian or slovenian or bosnian so maybe 25 to 30% of them all would actually get a chance to get a croatian passport :)

I have since started a new game by just renaming both teams and changing their arenas (and some divisional realignments), but now a get messages when loading that the team indexes cannot be located. It still lets me start the game, but I'm afraid this will cause troubles down the road and I don't want to get to far into a game and not be able to continue.
You can simply re-name phom changing them to winnipeg, but phoenix still has to be listed in the db. Just take an inactive team (defunct, not in any league) and rename that team phoenix coyotes. that will solve the team index problem.

and yes you may be able to start, but game will eventually screw up.

Hello. I'm editing my database (originally Unfaking 3.0) quite a lot, so far checked all NHL teams players potentials/attribrutes and added/edited imo the best players of the '07 draft class. What i still have to do is to check potentials of the prospects of every NHL team, add/edit the '08, '09 and '10 draft classes, create some players to Slovakia, Czech and Finland to make international more competitive (well, i am a finn, so i've got a mancrush on international games. :P Those three countries are imo behind Swedes, Russians, USA and Canada.) Then create few players on non-traditional countries (Greece, Spain, Italy, Great Britain.. Just for fun :D) and last but not least, add all-time greats on my game. And thats why i'm posting.

What are the stats that carries on to regen? And how can i have all-time greats regen, is it enough i create/edit a player with ones name, add the stats that carries on and set him to retire? Or is there something else i have to do?

Editor 1.6

Post by M Ace »

In the newest edition of the editor version 1.6, why can't I use the add info button under player info.

Also you can't set rights on a player in that editor. I works fine with editor 1.5.

I really wanna take away some players rookie status, but when I'm pushing the buttons nothing happens.


Any Thoughts?

I did a search, sorry if I missed.

Is it possible to edit number of times teams have been champions? Example Färjestad in Sweden have been champions 8 times, but in game its 7, because of 4 missing years.

Now when writing I remember I could take away a teams championship in 'Swedish Elitserien' --> 'History', from a non-active team, so it doesn't "effect". I guess this is the only way?
It would be nice with a small box, on each team, at 'Club info' to fill in a number(s). Is it possible to add in future versions perhaps?

A .RAR file is just a compressed file, like a .ZIP file, and it needs to be "unzipped" just the same. I don't believe Windows can handle .RAR files by default ( :roll: ), so you'll need an external program. Personally, I would recommend 7zip Portable. Just download it, and run the .EXE - no need to install anything to use it.
