DB updated, see change notes

In my game, Gavin McKenna went 2nd overall and is spending the year at Penn State with less than a point per game hahahhaa

LEVIS 李维斯 - Demidov is already an NHL player, maybe you are using an older version of the DB, 150/-10 and Fowler is 100/-20 both are guaranteed NHLers at their floor.

@BobbyMaldini - fix coming this week for that, something went sideways while editing I just have to see if anything else was impacted.

jacob fowler and demidov might need an update same for musty, musty and fowler never seem to develop to nhl players

dont know where to suggest change, they were ok before the new "patch" now 80% of players are 20 offensive role and 3 defencive role. it makes no sense. someone fucked up on edits

Update posted, please see change logs, updates will slow down through the rest of the summer, next update around the end of August unless something major happens.

@bobbyMaldini - He may need a player roll change from All-Around to something else, you are welcome to provide feedback here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iB5yCI91uPiiEAxrSlS1Vs_ZcQHujndLw4piEmP3WLg/edit?usp=sharing

is it normal that almost everyone is 20 offensive role, and 4-5 defencive role, like Jakes Evans who was 20 and 4 lol

You can create players, but you need an external editor. You can find editors at ehmtheblueline.com

@pepe You can not Create a Player

how do i create a player? or edit players?

@Eric, no

does the ECHL need to be selected to send players down from NHL/AHL?

Looks like the ECHL schedule has an issue, if you enabled the ECHL your game will crash at some point in year two, working on a fix. Sorry about that :(

@Mike - One of those is for the fake (generated) players, the other is for coverage of real players. You may be getting that mixed up.

Also I have not heard or seen anything of a Marittimes Junior Hockey League (MJAHL) and QMJHL merger, the QMJHL did change their name from Quebec Major Junior Hockey League to Quebec Maritimes junior Hockey League last season.

Looks like the ECHL schedule has an issue, if you enabled the ECHL your game will crash at some point in year two, working on a fix. Sorry about that :(

it appears there are two generated facepacks for the prospect generator(both have similar 25-26 titles) and im not sure which one is the one that is the right one. im glad the leagues were cleaned up, is there still a maritimes league for instance now that the QMJHL merged with them?

When is the next update?

@nfumass66 - This was due to an issue with the Deutschland Cup, which we have since removed, while we figure out what the issue is. Unfortunately there is no way to fix that save.

anyone else get an error on nov 10th of year 1, its a fatal errror, v1.5.0b1669120 ingame_db_setup.cpp 2484. any work arounds?

@Hunzber - the regular database, you do not need to make any changes if you want them included.

A question. Which of the databases had the better prospects version? The regular or the no-prospects one?

@Hoang's Plan - leave that enabled, only disable starting wages if you care about NHL salary accuracy, you can probably disable that one if you are GMing in Europe and the NHL doesn't matter as much.

Should we also Disable Starting Financial Adjustments or leave that setting on?

Database update with NHL transactions from the week. Please see change notes.

@10 - good catch, will be fixed.

@Рудольф Шнапс - thanks for the report, will update.

Will be some patches coming, found some issues. Don't get too attached to your saves yet.

@xECK29x patches coming in the following days or more mid late july? Thanks for all the hard work

Kunlun RS will play on SKA Arena next season.
SKA will play on LD St.Petersburg, then returns on SKA Arena.

In the Czech Maxa League there are only 13 league matches out of 52

@teemumenna - Usually that happens when you select too many leagues. I list a recommended settings in the description and have a screenshot of the options to use at start. IF you want you can friend request/DM me or reach me on Discord and I can take a look.

I'm trying to build a career from the lowest leagues, tried with Switzerland and Czech. Game crashes after first season around mid-July. I see comments about using recommended settings but I can't find anything related to recommended settings?

Not sure if this has been noted before, but was scrolling through the WHL drafts, and it looks like last years prospect rights aren't held by their teams. Not sure if this is the case for all of the CHL or if it's something that can't be fixed, but figured I'd let you know just in case.

There is also zero reason to enable all leagues, its only going to be unbelievably slow sim to sim, the leagues sim just fine and players and staff still grow without them selected.

@SmellyWrestlingGeek Yeah I know man, without this issue EHM (with this mod) could be on Mt. Rushmore of sports management games alongside with OOTP, Football Manager and Total Extreme Wrestling.

@lubosrachov Everyone knows, but you can either except the game's limitations or move on.

@Seanie, Beneficiary of Crota Look, I didn´t mean any disrespect to the modders, they´re doing wonderful job. I only want to point out the sadness of not being able to use this mod to the full extent.

@joel_wennberg - seems like you aren't updated, try unsub/resub.

Will be some patches coming, found some issues. Don't get too attached to your saves yet.

Great work but one thing Kreider is still a new york rangers player

@Seanie, Beneficiary of Crota SI doesn't support this game any longer

@lubosrachov play the game without any custom databases then or takeit up with Sports Interactive.

Free Agent Frenzy release posted! please see change notes, entire re-write of the database!

@lubosrachov - please use the recommended settings, I state do not select more then 20 leagues, leagues do not need to be selected in the game!

Game is unplayable if you can´t select all leagues without crashing.

@jp_arel You subscribe to it. But make sure like he says in the description you opted into the beta branch of the EHM game.

@joel_wennberg If he's feeling really nice he will sometimes release a after draft update with the pending FA so you can do what you wish, and then once everything is said and done after most of the big FA have signed he will do another and then another before the season starts.

how do I download it ? thanks

@joel_wennberg If I were a betting man, I'd say closer to the beginning of the regular season.

when do you release 25-26 update?
