ELITE NHL SCHEDULE 2021-2022
NHL Schedule.jpg:
Modified and fully playable schedule from previous year which is included in ELITE ROSTER 2022-2023 v0.9.0
Because of the game limitations to use only 30 teams in NHL I was forced to create a modified version.
There is only one place and you will have to decide which of these 3 teams you would choose to play - Arizona/Seattle/Vegas.
This schedule is created defaultly for Arizona as a team on place 2 and Columbus on place 9.
But as you can see there are variable places for Arizona and Columbus and when you play with Vegas or Seattle you need to move Columbus into the East conference.
As you probably notice you can expect only one schedule for place(team) 2 and one for place(team) 9 no matter if you use that team or other team.
To maintain all teams have the same number of games (78) it was neccesarry to add another 18 games. I created them according to real divisions and conferences (but with NHL 09 limitations).
It was very hard but I created it in the best way as I could and there are only these two inaccuracies - LAK and EDM have together one extra game and All-Star Game is hard-coded in the game to be in January 25 so games which are planned to this day was set to January 26.
HOW TO CREATE NHL DYNASTY:
1. Run the game, choose dynasty mode and create a new one.
2. See NHL Schedule.jpg
3. In the game substitute all green marked NHL teams according to NHL Schedule.jpg file.
4. Confirm the selection and begin the dynasty.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO CREATE NHL SEASON:
1. Run NHLView program and open the database files - db.viv and exhibition.exh.
2. See NHL Schedule.jpg
3. For all green marked NHL teams, change league to Custom in NHLView (Teams-Data) and save.
4. Run the game, choose season mode - NHL and create a new one.
5. Substitute teams according to season division order like in NHL Schedule.jpg file.
7. Confirm the selection and begin the season. Do not run the first game now.
8. You need to exit the game, open NHLView again, and set a league for those green NHL teams back to NHL and save.
9. Run the game, load NHL season and play.

ELITE GAMEPLAY SETTINGS
For Dynasty Mode and Season Mode you are forced to set Gameplay Settings again because when you create a new one there are default seetings imported.
Defaut values are from old Mazda Gameplay Settings which are changed in ELITE ROSTER for exhibition mode but the default ones are staying the same.
