FHM5 Hotfix, Version 5.6.58, Now Available

JeffR · 01-09-2019, 10:32 AM

A new hotfix update for Franchise Hockey Manager 5, version 5.6.58, has just been released.

To apply the update:

-If you are playing the eSellerate version, just download the setup file and install it over your current installation. There is no need to uninstall or unlicense your current copy! However, you should quit the game before installing it, of course.
-If you are playing the Steam version, the game will auto-update if you have that option active. If you don't see the update in your Steam update queue, you may need to exit and restart your Steam client.
-If you are playing the Apple Store version, the game will auto-update once the Apple Store approves the new update. This may not occur until a few days after the update is released for other versions.

One of the fixes in yesterday's hotfix (the one for the April crashes) created a new problem a few months later that would lead to another crash when attempting to move to the following year. The only change in this hotfix is the correction of that problem so saves with it can be continued. Strictly speaking, it's not essential to install this update if you weren't playing a save that was created prior to version 5.5.55, but it's never a bad idea to be updated to the current version.

Anybody else getting "Not Responding" when going through the screens or exiting? When I going into a player or into my roster it freezes & I get Not Responding, it started to happen after I download the newest update.

At times, I'll get that ... there's the point while starting a new game where it'll take a little bit of time to get past 40% on the "Processing" bar, and I sometimes get it when deleting certain game files. So far, I think that's been about it. In every case, the game/loading will proceed normally after the delay.
