Recently bought FHM and have watched a few Original Six games to get a feel for the game-play but have noticed these things....
1) shot totals on scoreboard often don't match shot totals of on-ice flags.
2) matching 5 minute fighting penalties are counted as PPO for each team
3) players are still shown as being in the penalty box when they are back on the ice after penalty time has expired
4) Jean Beliveau is listed as being "OUT" for 2 weeks yet has played every game for Montreal.

they also have power play listed on matching two minute minors and the 10 minute misconduct is not being properly administered either.

BUG - When CPU teams claim a player off of waivers, they are able to send him down to the minors. Player should have to go through waivers again to go down to minors...

jinkorjap · 01-03-2016, 02:11 PM

game crashed when I clicked on a player on waivers on the GM home page.

not true per CBA agreement and NHL waiver rules...Once a player clears waivers, the team does not have to immediately reassign the player. However, once the player has played ten games or spent thirty days on an NHL roster, the waivers expire and the player will have to clear again before being loaned to another league.

we are not talking about the same situation at all - the situation I am referring to is when one team claims a player off of waivers from another team. If that (acquiring) team wants to send the player down to the minors, the player needs to go through waivers again. E.g. WIN claims Reider, immediately sends him to minors. That's fine, but Reider would need to clear waivers again (allowing me to pick him up) before he is sent down. That's the whole point of waivers - to prevent teams from stashing NHL-level players in the minors.

You are talking about when a player CLEARS waivers; in this situation, he hasn't cleared.

I just bought the game from Steam, and I am about 3 weeks into the first season, and sometimes when I click the back arrow by the inbox icon the game crashes. I've restarted about 5 times and it occurs not every time I press it, but will crash every 2-3 days or so. If I don't use the back button the game seems fine. Is this a known issue? I checked through the forums but didn't find any related posts.

Thanks!

On mac...

Why is game data going to this folder

/username/Library/Application Support/Containers/com.ootpdevelopmentsfhm2macappstore/Data/Library/Application Support/Out of the Park Developments/Franchise Hockey Manager 2/....

instead of this one.

/username/Library/ApplicationSupport/Out of the Park Developments/Franchise Hockey Manager 2/....

I didn't even buy the game from the MacAppStore but rather directly from OOTP.

Not completely sure where to post this. But I run one of the online leagues. My league seems to be having issues with uploaded files not taking. I have multiple GMs who seem to try every sim and i can not get their files in. A few have even sent me the created file and i still cant get to take in-game. What are the steps we need to look out for to get the best results in importing files. Just makes it hard to keep forward momentum in an online league when over 25% of the teams just cant be active.

worstfaceoffmanever · 01-06-2016, 01:29 AM

I'm running a game with a junior team, and I traded for a player within the league on an active roster who has an NHL contract (meaning I can technically only trade for his rights). When I make the deal, the player goes onto my protected list, but there's no way for me to put him on my active roster; he remains assigned to the previous team.

I'm assuming this is because the NHL club, being higher up the proverbial food chain, controls his assignment in-game. Is there any way I can work around this and get the player I traded for onto my roster?

CM_Balkoth · 01-06-2016, 02:23 PM

Not sure exactly where to post this, so I thought this would be a good start. I want to start a historical season, but the only problem is that I don't have an option to keep the league from historically expanding. Basically, I want to expand the league in different ways. I.E. never moving the Jets etc. Thanks in advance.

No such option at the moment.

Ah, okay. Thanks for the help.

I know it made me do a doubletake, trying to work out what this flag was and why half the players in my junior league seemed to come from there.

Is there a way I can edit this, or will it be included in the next update?

re: Aland being listed among the hockey powers in fictional games due to what appears to be a ranking error, as the break between common and uncommon powers in the list is one spot too low.

Running a completely new game in the Modern NHL in General Manager mode with Roster moves and transactions set to my control. When I 'finish day' to sim a game the AI fills my roster to 23 spots if it isn't already filled to 23 spots. The result is some of my best AHL players are sitting as the 8th defenseman on my NHL team and I cannot stop the AI from making these changes without being the head coach as well and setting everything myself. I do have 20 players on my roster with enough to fill each position before hitting the 'finish day' button

slugger922cubs · 01-07-2016, 12:38 PM

In my online league my goalie has started 36 games and my back-up has started zero. I seem to be the only team this is happening to. All the other teams seem to have the back up starting around every 4th game. Last season with the same 2 goalies my back up started around 20. Really would like to know why this might be happening or some expanded options for back up goalie use

glb2687 · 01-13-2016, 02:20 PM

Not sure if I missed an answer to this in the threads but it does still pose a problem. Just seeing what a player wants and then forgetting them adds to the Offered contracts and screws up any realistic signing.

objectivetaste · 01-13-2016, 07:34 PM

My game keeps crashing as I try to advance to February 3rd 2025. I loaded a previous version of the same game and had the same issue. I've already uploaded my save, it's 4.998.lg.

triordan · 01-15-2016, 12:14 AM

I was GM of the Islanders, somehow lost that job so took job with Preds. Opened email trade offer and it was from Vanc to the Isles. Also received progress report with the Isles and Preds combined.

Ogie Oglethorp · 01-16-2016, 02:35 AM

Its been expressed already but we need some sort of dialogue from the devs...we are trying to sim past the All Star game on January 31 and the game crashes with the error "FHM2 has stopped working" and then the "Windows is looking for a solution" then Boom goes the dynamite...Game crashes....a lot of bugs mentioned above are just little tweeks and stuff you can deal with. this one makes the game unplayable because you cannot sim past that date. Im stuck, were stuck! there are others with same issue. Let us know whats going on with this issue as im not playing and that sucks.
