Did you run the launcher as an admin and also with a xp compatibility mode?

It just needs to be the same nhl2004.exe as the rebuilt mod. |

@Sence: Yeah, the game runs normally, interface fine, gameplay, everything. But I can't activate all of the Launcher's features. @Vod: Hmmm...so if nhl2004.exe was changed in the ESPN Interface I don't have it updated. I'll copy it from the latest ESPN Interface. Let me try again. Regards, Franco MDH |

Hmm...it didn't change a single thing. Let me review the installation procedures. Vod, I had the previous Launcher on my NHL 2004 folder. It had 3 files, the Launcher.dll, Launcher.exe and Launcher.ini. I DELETED these files and placed the two new folders on the NHL 2004 folder (Example Scripts and Launcher). I launch it from the Launcher folder, Launcher.exe. Is that correct? Regards, Franco MDH |

No. Ignore the example scripts folder and extract the contents of the launcher folder into your game folder. Launcher.exe should be in the same folder as nhl2004.exe It should look like this NHL 2004\launcher.exe NHL 2004\launcher.dll NHL 2004\launcher\ NHL 2004\launcher\dump\ NHL 2004\launcher\media\... NHL 2004\launcher\options\... NHL 2004\launcher\scripts\... |

Okay. Now how can we edit the rings so that we can get it working for all NHL teams? I can try to help u with that. Another question: Is the Launcher NHL specific? I tried with the AHL mod and it didn't work. Regards, Franco MDH |

You mean for the upper ads? All that's required at the moment is two logo textures and a definition flie. The effects are done programmatically. Look at: NHL 2004\launcher\media\textures\shared\logos NHL 2004\launcher\scripts\modules\upper ads
What do you mean by "didn't work? None of the features worked, including FPS display? As long as the nhl2004.exe is the same as the rebuilt mod, then it should work. The launcher makes no assumptions about leagues or teams. |

Perfect! I can create all remaining teams if you want. Logos should be easy. What do I do with the definition files for all other teams? Copying them and renaming for the desired team would work? PS. Nevermind, got it working again on the AHL. Regards, Franco MDH |

That would be a big help. There's a few things to configure in the definition file. Team color, short name and possibly .fsh IDs if there's something wonky about the specific arena. You should be able to add the logos and definition files while in the main menu. So you can do it there, start a game to test it in replay mode, exit to the main menu and continue on to the next team. Thanks

I'm sorry. I'm completely new to LUA. No programmer skills at all here. Which main menu can I change that? I was able to open the LUA file for the led ring with a simple Notepad (!). There I saw all the things you said, team colours, short name etc. Is there any simpler way to do this? Regards, Franco MDH |

I personally use notepad++ for editing lua files. https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.1.html |

Launcher 1.5.0 RC2 is an old closed alpha version from May. Please delete the launcher folder and files and try with the latest version (Beta 4). A lot has changed since then. |
