Eastside Hockey Manager - Part X Patch 1.5 Edition! (Open Beta)

Yup. There’s a ton of post-season award options. Pretty simple to add via the editor.
Oh damn. Might have some fun with this. Haven't really messed with the editor.
You are good, the game is VERY OLD AND BUGGY, so save often and expect random crashes. I have random save issues with my SSD. The game code is over a decade old so it's not optimized for multi-core or SSDs, sim speed is purely based on HDD speed and single core clock speed so that Celeron may be a little painful to play on but will work.
Also make sure you opt into the 1.5 public beta of the game, see the news item on how to do it.

Interesting thing you are doing there, so how exactly do you simulate all this? You play as unemployed and simulate a full season?

minor thing i noticed, Mason Geertsen on the devils is listed as LD/RD but he mostly played wing for them during the preseason, and made his nhl debut tonight on the wing. He was listed as a defenseman on the opening roster though so maybe LD/LW or LW/LD. I know the game is weird about those kinds of players though.
Will fix, does setting him as an enforcer still make sense or is he playing more of a defensive (physical) or grinder play style?

enforcer still makes sense to me, he had 5x as many PIM as he did TOI in the only game he's played so far. I've also noticed since then that Mercer is pure RW but he's been playing C for the Devils so far, though I guess with Zacha as C/LW in the game Mercer would still end up being pushed to RW if he was called up. I'd maybe go with Zacha as LW/C but I know that makes them almost useless at C. Zacha does play better on the wing though so it kinda makes sense but I guess I can leave that up to you whether you want to do that or not.
couple of notes on my recent run through with a random team. I'm in 2031 and I've noticed that the DEL treats each season like its the next one. for example it is currently April 12th 2031 and I have this player who supposedly played for Tucson in the AHL in 28/29, then "didn't play" in 29/30, played 30/31 for Ingolstadt, and 31/32 for Berlin, even though the 31/32 season wont start for some 5 months.
then we also have a situation on my AHL team Tucson, where my starting goalie played EVERY SINGLE GAME this year and my backup, who did ok in preseason going 1-1-0 with a 3.36 and a .914 played ZERO!?
and this isn't an issue where we signed the backup at the end of the year and he played in a different league... he just didn't play any games this year aside from the 2 preseason games... according to his injury profile he hasn't been injured since 2027 so that isn't the reason.

If I install the game on an external SSD (faster than my HDD), would the sim be faster then? What if it is only the save game on the SSD?
If anything that will introduce more issues because of the old code base writing to an external drive. I don’t think it would have much impact.
Is the DEL a selected league? If it's not selected the schedule and start/end dates for the league won't be realistic.

Sorry guys still tinkering as usual. Once I finish my NCAA restructure I’ll send a beta version to people interested in taking the database for a spin. Maybe about a week.

In my save, Arizona made such an Arizona decision and picked Brad Lambert in front of Shane Wright, leaving Buffalo the pleasure of getting a Eichel/Wright 1/2 punch.
Interesting, because in mine L-A got the first pick and they selected Joakim Kemel, leaving Wright to the Red Wings as #2
That explains why the game is painfully slow if I load anything more than NHL, AHL, ECHL and CHL leagues.
It was initially what put me off playing the game and got me onto FHM, but I won't be playing this year's edition, so will give good ol' EHM another go.
Might try out that upgraded skin as the original is starting to look really dated now.

Heading into my 3rd season with the TBL 2021-22 14.0.1 rosters and the game is crashing on June 22nd, 2023 when I advance to the next day.
Anyone else have this happen to them?

New FHM is great don’t give up on it !! I suggest looking some YouTube’s if you are unsure it just came out but there’s a few
I’d have to see the save and what leagues are enabled. Could be a scheduling issue or something. Riz is going to be doing some EHM bug report debugging soon so I’d highly encourage you to make a post on the SI bugs forum I routinely post and upload the save to SI Cloud.
I was able to do the "tampa bay thing." in my most recent save. Coming off a Stanley Cup win and going into preseason, my team was $4 Million over the cap... I just so happened to have my 2nd line center (Jack Hughes, with a $6.25M cap hit) fracture his ribs in training camp, injured for "1 month." I noticed that once he was no longer unable to participate in practice, if I took him off IR his cap hit was lower (makes sense) but we were still above the cap... now since he was still injured I was able to re-place him on ir in October, and keep him "injured"
I held him out until after the trade deadline while keeping him on IR the whole time... and once the TDL passed, he came back onto the team under the cap...
here is my roster as of march 2nd:
Heres a picture of Hughes as of March 2nd: ("Injured" since october 19th)
the game doesn't say this specifically, but every time I have offered him a contract he has outright refused, claiming he has "absolutely no interest." so I'm putting the spin that he is pissed that I held him out while he was capable of playing. I wish I had a save from pre-season or earlier in the season to prove I'm not just lying and he didn't fracture his skull or tear an MCL or something and was actually just out for 7 months... but I promise he wasn't...
EDIT: OH WAIT THERE IS A WAY! HERE:
September 22: Fractured ribs 5 weeks.
