Game summary screen, Team statistics panel.
Played the California seals- Vancouver Canucks The panel has shots, PIM, Hits, GA, TA and FOW: Team name is shown as Van:# for each stat but for the Seals there is a blank where the team name should be __:# Edit: the seals definition (CLF) showed up in the 3 stars list but not the scoring panel either p.s. I realize that a screenshot would be more helpful but I haven't figured that out yet. |
I played out 1970 and 1971 as two separate historical leagues since 1970 crashed just before the following season started. My problem is 1971-72 crashed right after the playoffs and cant continue. I tried to start a new historical season and no matter which year I pick I am told it already exists. I cant figure out how to delete the current saved leagues so I can actually start a new game. Until I do I cant play at all.
In the game itself a couple of strange things happened. I made it through one draft, when I clicked on a potential draft choice-Bo Berglund, Serge Bernier's stats and name came up. I right clicked on Bo and got "draft Serge Bernier" so I did just to see what would happen since he was already property of the flyers. Sure enough Serge became my property. I then moved to the start of the next season and both John Ratelle and Ed Giacomin got moved to my drafted players list and off my roster. I had to sign them both to get them back on my active roster. They were also the only two players I could do anything with on my list of drafted players. Scoring seems to be very low. The league leader in pts have done so with totals under 80. The highest GGA a goaltender has had in the two seasons I simmed was 3.13, most were under 3.00. As was mentioned by Jeff defensmen scoring is very low, Bobby Orr scored 8 & 9 goals in the 2 seasons I played out and hasn't topped the 40 pt mark. |
Players are drafted one year too early, at 16-17 years old (Beliveau in 48, Mikita in 57, Gretzky in 78 etc.)

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but I can't seem to get a Historical game started at all. Here's my process:
1. Start FHM 2. Select "New Historical Game" 3. It asks me to select a "Database", but when I try to click the drop down box nothing happens, so I just select "Ok" 4. I select a year (I have tried both 1947 and 1993) and click "Ok" 5. I get message "This game name already exists!" So I tried deleting the saved game file I had in the saves (under Documents) and retried it (note there are now no saved game files). I still get the same message. Should I be getting an option at step 3? :confused: |

Salary Cap and Draft
I started a couple of games with the Sabres expansion franchise in 1970. So far I've only had one crash. This beta is more stable than a lot of other games post release. I see two major issues:

I had the same thing happen to me cap wise. I made it through three seasons and in 1970 got slammed with two players earning just under 3.5 million in the last year of their deals who each counted as a 15M cap hit. I was OK August 1st and simmed to the start of preseason before it happened. I also lost 1/2 of my reserve players as well as a few players on my active roster. |
I'm not having too many weird issues that I wouldn't expect or that haven't been covered, but...
How do I release a player from the protected list? Every off-season, I think 'oh good, I can get rid of that dude' and he hangs around on the protected list, green texted, and there's no way I can rid myself of 35 y/o Darryl 'Slip' Sly until he retires. ...and editting any player to set him as a free agent or put him on another team invariably crashes the game. |
Historical Salaries....OOPS!!

using the new beta 0.9.4 and trying to start up a couple of games, and I got this.
I don't think salaries are supposed to be this high in either 1947 or 1980. |

You beat me to it :p |
They're obviously not, but when there's no salary cap set, it doesn't make a difference (a real difference that is), does it? I'm curious, it doesn't affect you from playing games etc?
|
Yes, it was blocking the game because there is a salary cap issue.
|
before you get going, there's an edit league screen, and thankfully the 'allocate random contracts' button works for now (I mean, it still gives out modern-day contracts, but at least your payroll isn't $200m)
(and I'm loving today's update, not having any weird rights things, being able to release dudes...) |
