New for FHM9

[Swedishgamefreak]

Seems like the icing bug in the 2D engine, the one where players skates to the line and wait for the puck to reach the end for an icing, is still in the game. :/

Other than that I like the changes. I have a question about the "make trade work" button. Could we see some changes so the AI also wants draft picks and not only players?

We get this error on macOS Ventura first time trying to open the game:



To fix it:

Open System Settings -> Privacy and Security -> Under security is an error blocking the game from running, click "Open Anyway" -> Authenticate -> click Open.

Seems you could still have a more user friendly way of setting lines, like drag and drop. Clicking on the little button then clicking on the right spot and half the time I end up somewhere else.

Is it possible to zoom in more for the hockey cards that are on the loading screens? It seems like 1/3 player and 2/3 background.

Would it be possible to have an option to disable the projection stats from the player pop-up ? I find its placement a bit confusing in the UI

I can't see the image, but that sounds like a "helpful" thing Apple did a couple of years ago that required a special certification for applications or that error message would appear. You can safely click on Open Anyway.

Try the Facegen settings on the start screen - Settings option, then Facegen, then there's a zoom mode option partway down the list that will let you zoom in the images more.

Could probably add that as an option, yeah.

That would be nice, thanks ! Other than that I'm loving the game so far, will definitely drop a good steam review pretty soon !

Sorry for that. Here is the image of error message:

You can drag/drop players into your line-up.

You can either drag them from the left-hand side (dressed list), or you can click and drag them anywhere you want once they're placed in the line-up.

Did that get fixed with the FastSpring version? Some reason in 8 that only worked for the Steam and Epic Games version.

Is there any way to create a custom league with a relegation system?

You can also fix it by following this quick youTube video:

No, not possible yet. Definitely on the wishlist, but it's going to have to come with some serious restrictions on the setup.

Ah, not the thing I was thinking of, then. Try the method Hockey13Playa posted above; if that doesn't work there are a couple of other options, but that way would be the easiest.

No, Fastspring still uses the 2-click method.

I've read the tactics section of the manual, and I'm still fuzzy on something. By setting an individual player's tactical role, the "game rating" is weighted to expectations of that role.

Do I still need to overwrite their settings for attacking, tempo, hitting, etc? Or will by setting their tactical role make adjustments at that point?

[sandornaut]

oh man - I wish this was posted in the tech support / bug reporting forum, just posted the identical issue there.

thanks for pointing out the security issue - odd that Ventura was reporting this as an apparent issue with the binary; I've definitely run into security issues before and typically MacOS reports it more plainly as an issue with trusting where the app was downloaded from, etc.

Those settings are independent of each other, both will affect style of play. So if e.g. you have someone playing in the Agitator tactical role and lower his aggressiveness tendency, that'll dial down how aggressive he is but it'll still be more aggressive than he would be with most other tactical roles (although you could get to a similar level by cranking up their aggressiveness tendency.) Basically, it allows you define what the players are doing a little more precisely than just giving them the baseline behaviour of the tactical role.
