Controller problem

Hello,

I'm new to this particular mod, so if this has already been answered, please point me to the solution. I've searched, and found nothing so far.

I heard about NHL04 Rebuilt 2016 through a friend, and decided to give it a try. I installed NHL 2004, and the Interface.exe, and up to date rosters, and fired up the game. Everything seemed fine, game loaded just fine under Play Now. Only, I had forgotten to choose my controller, a wired XBox 360 controller. So I quit that game, chose my controller, and restarted a new game. Again, game started just fine. One more problem, though...the buttons weren't assigned to any actions in-game. So, I quit a second time, and went into the settings, and configured the controller to my liking. Chose Play Now a third time, and it hangs at the loading screen. I get the arena picture, and the top players for each team, and the vertical loading bar...but it just spins, and nothing happens. I have to quit via Task Manager to get out of it. I tried going back in and using the default controller configuration, but still nothing. I've even tried unplugging the controller, but that didn't work either. I would much rather not use the keyboard to play, if at all possible.

I'm running the game in Windows 10, 64 bit, and have both the game and the launcher set for Windows 7 compatibility and to run as an admin. I have no other addons except the rosters yet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...thanks...

Thats strange, the forever loading screen usually happens when the roosters are not installed correctly. Try reinstalling them again.

db.viv and tunning.viv go to NHL 2004>db folder and the exh and exha files go to My Documents>NHL 2004>DB folder.

Let me know did it work :D

Thanks for the reply. I was aware of the roster problem causing this, as I had previously installed the rosters incorrectly. I have them installed correctly now, but I've re-installed, just in case. Still no luck.

I uninstalled and re-installed the game, with interface, but without the updated rosters. I was able to change the button configuration without any problems. Once I installed the rosters, the problem reappears. It seems to be a combination of the updated rosters and changing the button config of the controller.

I'm using the Flyermania rosters dated 6/18/2016. Is there another up to date roster I could try?

Wow, really strange. Is your game folder named NHL 2004 like the one in my documents ? One guy had a problem with loading and he had 2 different names for the folders, so just asking

Yep, both are named NHL 2004. I can configure the controller, or I can install the updated rosters, but not both, apparently...
