EHM 1 Database & Saved Game Editor v1: BUG REPORTS & FEATURE REQUESTS

Post by clarencecyborg »

It seems the game does not calculate correctly the Expiry Date for NHL Rights for players in the NCAA. The rights expire one year too soon (for example, Gabe Perreault's rights expire in 2027 IRL, but in the game it shows 8.15.2026... Does anyone know how to change the rule for all NCAA players?

Thanks :)

This is probably a really dumb question.

Can you use the editor on the Pivot databases? How does one do this. I cannot figure it out for the life of me...

Yes it will crash because hitting Save can cause certain changes to the saved game (such as validating and re-ordering data). I suggest not hitting Save and instead use the Editor as read-only for saved games.
