What? :-?
1991 League will it work in the 2007 version?
If I understand this question correctly: Yes, but the start year will still be 2006.
How about importing it into a one of the updated Leagues?
:-?

Importing what? For what reason?
Any other Past Seassons being created?
I'm guessing you're asking if there are any othre "classic" mods being created? Then yes: there is Sbufkle's WHA mod and Pens66's 1979-80 mod.
If you make all your Players really good you won't get fired.
Hmm? If you win you won't get fired. If you make your players good, but keep losing, then it's not much good is it?
Is anybody interstide in Drafted by Teams League or maybe Stanley Cup Laegue?
In English please? :-D

seriously...what the hell? Drafted by who, what?

man these are some weird-ass questions. I guess they started playing EHM at Jupiter already...

-Yes, the 1991 mod works in EHM 2007 (I think that's what he wanted to ask)
-Photos of players are not updated after trade deadline, because you know...the technology didn't arrive from Japan yet

Okay...poor thread title, that is worthy of SI forums only. Around here, we title our threads properly, after searching other threads for good topics that are already here to use. So..not sure what to call this thread.

I think we should call it the mgsports thread, that way...you have your very own thread to post everything you want to know about in it. I think that is a good idea.


Welcome aboard mcgsports. Good to have you.

To answer your questions: I have no idea, I think you need to clarify them a bit.


And congratulations on being the first user to have his own thread here. I think that should be a big honor.

Translation for our Earth-bound folks:

1. Are there any player and staff photos updated as of the trade deadline?

2. Will the 1991 NHL mod work in EHM 2007?

2a. Can the above 1991 NHL mod be imported into an existing updated database?

3. Will there be any future mods for other eras in hockey?

[RANDOM STATEMENT] If you make all your Players really good you won't get fired. [/RANDOM STATEMENT]

4. Is anybody interested in Drafted by Teams League or maybe a Stanley Cup Laegue?

--------

1. Doubtful. That's a lot of work just to have players pictured in their new colours.

2. If it was made for 2007, then yes. Otherwise, no.

2a. No. And what would be the point? The 1991 mod is meant to resemble 1991... why would you then want to import that into a mod that's updated for 2008? Completely contradictory.

4. Not sure what you mean by "drafted by teams league". And I believe we already have a "Stanley Cup League" in the game - It's called the National Hockey League.

Heheh... Good work Stins.

I mean seriously Mgsports (atleast that's what you're called at SI forums, must be a typo here), you need to look more closely when typing a message at a public forum... that was utter gibberish you posted... :roll:

No offense.

Photo's I mean theirs none out their for 07/08 season.
Where can I get 79/80 Mod's?
The reason I want to import like 1991 and 79/80 into one of the updated ones if so like a 1991 team can trade with with like Red Wings meaning like Osgood to the 91 Penguins for Mario,Draft Picks and so on beacuse you can do it in OOTP.
Theirs got to be faster way to make every Player good so every team has a chance to win it.
I have made Drafted by Teams Rosters before. Stanley Cup winning teams would be from the last 30 Years or how many teams are in the NHL and also Copy/Clone would have to be include to do that.

-There are mugshots across, you just have to search for 'em!

-79/80's mod? Hmm, not sure if that one is done...if you mean the WHA mod, no it is not done yet.

-Well, I don't know how would you like to do the importing. I can't imagine it...there would be three rosters from each team?! From 79/80, 1991 and 2007? That's you know...weird. OOTP is way too different from EHM, sorry.

-I still don't know what you mean by this statement. Do you mean developing players? Sorry, but that's not fast proccess...sometimes it can take up to few seasons...Oh...wait...you mean...every single player on the same level? That's kinda lame IMHO. It destroys all the trading/developing/training/tactics fun.

-Now I know what you mean by that last question! And that's a deffinitly interesting idea, but I don't think anyone has done that. It's not very...possible...or it is?

I think you are too affected by OOTP. OOTP and EHM are different games with different group of people behind them, if I am not mistaken. Sure, we would like to see many features from OOTP in EHM but....but... :roll: it won't happen I guess. I don't think I have to mention why...

I don't think that was a random statement. I think I remember an incredible thread over at the SI boards about this.

I have Download some Photo Sets that came out in 07.
Mugshots have to be converted to be used right?
Teams will give up on Signing somebody that is to good like my team the Blues do because after signing so many of their Prospects and is close to the Salary Cap and also put Players on Waviers who are good if they have to many like in my League the Ducks put Rob N. and Samuel P. on Waviers and got Claimed.
All I'm trying to do is Current P. 193,Future P. 198 and Repititon 199,rights with the NL team that Drafted them and 19 as number for Secondary Postion.

Using the 79/80 Mod doing NHL League that has every NHL team have a chance to win the Stanley Cup and my team the Kansas City Bombers usly wins the Cup in the first year.
Lots teams are making Players available because some of the teams are trying to cut Salary or have to many good Players.
So far I have done the Cowboys,Bruins,Blues,Seantors,Stringers,Las Vegas,Salt Lake done. Kansas City doesn't count because it's my team.
if you want to try it your self I can send to you. I can do one for this year to if theirs demand for it.

Would anybody be intersted in the Blues kinds of Roster

Post by mcgsports »

Key and Core Players who is playing know with them and use to so they can win the Cup in the game? Because I don't want to lose.
Hockeydb.com doesn't have All-Time Rosters for Teams and that would help me out.

I think he wants to create an all time Blues roster, but can't find info on old legends of the team.

I think. :-k

its really just better to ignore the original poster. he makes these same kinds of weird posts on the OOTP forums as well. Its as if its his shtick to pretend to either not know the English language, or to be mentally retarded... either way he is never serious about anything and has been ignored, or laughed at there for years now.

He certainly does make some very "unique" posts and I, too, do not understand why his English is so poor for someone based in the USA (though maybe English is his second language?). Regardless, I'd rather users didn't call each other retarded. ;)

oh arch,

I was not calling him retarded, just saying that seems to be his gimmick so to speak. Over at the OOTP forums, its become widely believed his posts are just a joke to him. Not sure why anyone would want to pretend to be as strange, but it seems to be that way.

I just want Active Legends Blues because some people are Retired and arn't in the Updated Roster File.

I guess I will put myself on the Blues and make every Player on them today including Unsigned Prospects really good and then I won't Lose.

I would do Stanley Cup Teams from 1979-08 but no option for Cloning or Copy Payers and Staff.

If you boost up your team you will need to pay them a lot and surely have problems to stay under the cap!
What's the fun in winning if you don't know loosing? That's just as boring as deleting the injuries.
