Custom Game Playoffs

wiggleman83 · 01-02-2021, 08:36 PM

Note I didn't have FHM6, I came here directly from FHM5. I have 2 issues, the big one is that I selected 16 team playoffs, 8 from each conference but when the playoffs rolled around, it took the top 16 teams in the league and had teams from opposite conferences playing each other in the first round. I also wanted to do a memorial cup between my 3 junior leagues but I can't like I could in FHM5.

Yeah, something's definitely not working correctly when that playoff system is matched with a league structure that should work with it, we'll get that fixed.

Thank you! Is there any way to get a memorial cup style tournament with my junior leagues? It's ok if I would have to restart the league. I would choose the NHL + AHL + CHL option but I want 32 teams in my major and minor leagues.

Not possible with the fictional leagues right now, the NHL+AHL+CHL setup borrows some hardcoding from the standard game to make it work.

Ok, thanks. I was curious because FHM 5 allowed me to select CHL set up for juniors separate from the NHL and AHL when starting a custom game.

Hi, I was wondering if there was a timetable for the playoff format fix.

It'll be in the update, we're testing it now.
