NHLView 6.0.12.24 Bug Report

[Suchy_63]

Please post the problems you experience with NHLView here. The summary of all confirmed bugs will be posted in this thread as they are reported.
Confirmed bugs in 6.0.12.24:

• "ø" and "Å" letters are not handled properly (lower and capital).
• In certain situations, when Resource Preview is enabled and you try to exit the program, it will hang. The only way to exit is to end process in Task Manager
• After deleting custom teams, moving player in and out of additionals can cause Access Violation messages (no harm though as the operation completes successfully)
• On Arena tab, Arena Art number (AAID) is incorrectly placed in Play-by-Play group under Announcer label
• Team Stats tab hasn't been updated with new post-lockout stats (ties no longer count, home-away record is broken etc)
• db.viv from NHL 2005 roster update cannot be properly opened by NHLView because it contains nhl2006pc.tdb which NHLView tries to open first. As a walkaround, delete nhl2006pc.tdb from db.viv or do not use EA Sports roster updates

Confirmed bugs from NHLView 5.0.11.25 not fixed in 6.0.12.24:

• "List out of bounds" error occurs when trying to create career stats for players with high ID

Not bugs:

• First time you open your roster with NHLView, there will be errors in error log about empty player instances: This is a normal situation because original EA rosters contain structural errors and NHLView fixes them. If you save your rosters, next time these errors will not appear.

First Merry Christmas and thanks for the new version. It`s great especially creating and deleting custom teams.
It seems we can have now more than 20 custom teams without any problems (first, fast test)!


I think not really a bug:

I created a lot of new players and moved them to the teams.
I got this error:

It seems that there are a maximum of players (6.235) on all teams.
The problem moving new players from the hidden list, FA or additionals is only fixable to release players or deleting duplicate
players


I copy the post from the NHLView 5.0 Bug Report because I`ve the same problem again

[Suchy_63]

Yes this is not a bug, watis. Basically the table that keeps roster records (each player on a team is a roster record) has a finite capacity. Theoretically, NHLView has the ability to extend this capacity, I just never tried it so I do not know if it will crash the game or not. To be on the safe side, NHLView just doesn't allow this right now. If I ever get a chance, I can try to research on whether it's safe to extend roster record and player instance limit. I know that having over 40 players on a team definitely crashes the game so the number roster records is still limited by 40 * number of teams.

The thing is, the problem happens with less than 40, one team is limited to 22 players

[DSgamby]

Another team, I have only 20 players, on the roster, 2 goalies and 18 players. I have no players scratched.

[Suchy_63]

NHL 09 has a limit of 5200 roster records. Divided by 163 teams that gives 31-32 players per team. If you create your own team, it goes down even more. I will see in the next release if it's safe to expand that limit and if so NHLView will not display this message anymore.

First of all, thanks very much for the updated version of View Artem. Releasing it on Christmas Eve was a great idea too as it made for a wonderful Christmas present to all of us IMO. I have noticed the limit on players you can add to your own custom teams, but what I had noticed was that you can only add 1 or 2 "hidden" players at a time and the ones who don't go on your team will automatically go to the free agents list. I'm not sure if I would call this a bug but it was something that happened to me when I created a custom team. Also, is there a way for View to display the custom team logos in the graphic updates or do we have to import our own logo into the game first?? I'm just curious is all, I hope you had a great Christmas and have a Happy New Year man!!

I deleted a few custom teams and now the roster limit is fixed but when I moved a few players from additionals to the regular roster I get the following error.

I haven't really played around with the program yet but I noticed within 5 seconds of opening it that the å and Å characters are showing up as L's.

[watis]

"ø" moves to "ř"
"Å" moves to "Ĺ"
Maybe 20 player and four team names changed :
Lulea, Djurgarden, Timra and Skelleftea!

The first time if you open rosters with the new NHLView you get a lot of errors like
Gianni Donati (6267) was removed from line spot L2RW on HC Davos because he is not dressed.
Gianni Donati (6267) was removed from line spot P1RW on HC Davos because he is not dressed

I checked it: Donati and all the other players aren`t in the lines so i can`t say why the program called this errors
but this isn`t really a problem. It´s only for the first time like this:

but it`s a problem if you open often a season or dynasty file

Custom logos are controlled by Team Art field. The preview is not updated while you are editing the value, only after you are finished editing it and teh focus switches to another field.
