@Vod: When you make the 1.04 support, remember to use the mod's 1.04 EXE as it has the modded overhead camera and ability to use leagueloader.

Edit: oops... the camera angle is in merlin.viv, not in the EXE.

With larger resolution the modded overhead camera looks like it's much closer and the "wide" view is gone. Is this logical? Perhaps we should create new values for it.

Vod this is an amazing change. I'm 56 and for years have had a hard time either seeing the puck or being able to see the players on the ice, always compromising one for the other, and incredible fix, and I think I can speak for old farts everywhere, thank you sir...you are a genius !

Thanks, I'm glad it has helped you. :)


I've added 1.04 support and I'll be releasing it today after some more testing.

Hi Vod, this is awesome news...however, I have a favor to ask. Would it be too much work to make the screen resolution files to work under the 1.1 exe file?The thing is.. for a weird reason, this is the only file that works for me since all the others give me the nhl2004.exe has stopped working error. If it is too much though feel free to say no, great job as usual anyway :)

That's strange. Have you tried 1.04 with unmodded 2004?

I did. It's weird because it didn't work either, the only file that worked was in the nhl 2004 v1.01 folder there's a file nhl 2004.exe which is the 1.01 file...and even though it works it works like 1 out of 4 times, but it does. It might be because of my system specs, I don't know. I also even can't start the game with a controler plugged in since I will get the white screen or the nhl2004.exe has stopped working. Trust me, since I switched computer I've had a lot of probllems trying to play the game, but at least now it almost works at 100%.

Btw. Its somehow possible to fix scoring leaders with 1.04 exe?

I remember that 1.04 didnt show them properly.

Hi Vod,

works like a charm - thanks for that.

Now we do have a lot of parameters to play with :-) (will try and see if I see a difference [have bad eyes]).

Just maybe stupid question, do I need to start the game everytime by launcher or can normally start it by exe file?

Otherwise first test and it looks perfectly!Stunning job Vod

Just a heads up I'm not sure if everyone is getting this same issue but if you hit the print screen button it crashes the game. It's happening for both the launcher and regular nhl2004.exe file.
