Since some people here have started talking about helping out, figured I'd make a central thread to keep track of all my full league mods for 2004.
First up is the AHL, which is being done entirely by me. It's capable of being a standalone mod but is also a part of Stif's larger project for 2004, which also adds 4 new European leagues to the game. On target for a Nov. 1st release.
Jerseys: 20/32 teams done
Arenas: 20/30
Goalies: 0/60+ Done by Stiflersmom: Roster and gameclock Done by me: season mode, front end (w/ help by Masumura), referee
After that will be ECHL10. The main feature here will be the ECHL (how profound ). I'm taking care of that, again. But, if there's enough help, I'm also adding the OHL, QMJHL, and WHL onto the project as well. ECHL -
Not started: jerseys, arenas, gameclock, front end, referee Done by me: season mode
CHL -
Not started: jerseys, front end, referee, gameclock(s)
In progress: arenas (Turbo6 + me), roster (go_leafs_13)
If anybody wants to help with the CHL addons, or has anything to show off, you can do it here; I'll collect everything you post. If you've already on the CHL team, please check in once in a while just so I know you're still at work. Thanks.
but I won't be mean but the QMJHL have closed malhjmq.com because they won't have their things (Arenas, etc...) and their players in a video game unfortunately and I'm pretty sure they will know it...

the mod from 07 is still around. I know they tried to shut it down, but they can't clear the whole net.
Cgy: you know i've got stuff for CHL and i recently downloaded everything for 04 so i'm good to go on the help for CHL. Do you know how editable the schedule and leagues are in 04? For instance, i'm wondering if we can put all 60 CHL teams in one league and edit a scheuld to accomidate.
Jerseys: I get the jist of how to do them for 04, but maybe i'll just send you what i have and you can do the transfer if you want to use them. I have a ton of jerseys, but no edge one's yet. I know you can use up to 10 per team in 04, do we want to go that route?
according to EA Sports, the socks on the bingo black jersey are the ones they used for their red jersey last year.
I know, but I highly doubt that. Take everything EA does with a grain of salt. You don't even want me to start listing the mistakes in EA's AHL jerseys; it'll get embarrasing before too long.

Even less so than 09. Not much at all.

Like I told you before, in 2004 you really need to limit the amount of jerseys in the archive or you get a crash fest. You start putting your whole vintage collection in there and people's machines will be smoking before the opening faceoff.
Important: if the CHL guys would rather do the project for 09 that doesn't bother me. I know it contradicts what I said a few weeks ago about only modding 2004, but I still like 09 too. I'll still be the project organizer and all.

Nah, now that I've played 04 and seen how much better the gameplay is I'm sticking with it.
CGY...i can try to lend a hand on the OHL. Particularily the goalie equipment. I can try to get a peg on each of the goalies and post my work here if you'd like. Might be kinda fun now that I'm getting more comfortable using the temps in PS.

How easy is it to make it compatible for both 04 and 09? Is it just a matter of taking the art work and saving into different file formats? I realize the roster's would need to be done twice, but would anything else need to be duplicated art wise?

The big thing is two sets of rosters. Give me all the artwork and I could convert it without too much trouble, though it would take some time.
However I have decided to release all my AHL jerseys this year for 08/09 as well, since I haven't even decided which game I'm going to stick with for a season.
Since this is ECHL related, I've slightly resurrected the old MLH project for 09 and I'm finishing up the final versions of the ECHL and Central Hockey League, to be released around the start of the seasons in late October. I was 90% of the way there, no point letting it sit and waste.
