NCAA '04 questions

[goalieman40]

i just got nhl 2004, so i'm not too familiar with the files and addons and stuff, so i was just wondering a few things:

- since it overwrites the nhl teams, could i save all the settings from before i install the NCAA stuff, and then save the NCAA ones and be able to switch back and forth with relative ease? meaning if i one day wanted to play as NHL teams, i paste all the files back into the folder.

- are the goalie pads included pnhl? i'm not to familiar with pnhl, but i do know about it. if they are, would that make it difficult to add in other goalie gear that isnt?

- does anyone have ingames of the full cage? i saw some a long time ago on cyber-nhl i think, but that's gone and i dont remember how they looked.

i think that's it. thanx!

I think you can have two copys of nhl 2004. just copy the main folder and rename it somewhere else. there is also a AHL switch program that works as well.

how would that work? how would it load from the other folder?

that doesnt really answer my question... how would the game load from the nhl folder or the ncaa folder?

bump. i'd like if someone could give me some details on having more than one folder. i dont understand how it works, like, how the game knows which folder to load from.

ingames would be sweet if anyone has 'em. especially of UNH, and the full cages.

ok, here's the way to do this. Your Program Files\EA Sports\NHL 2004 Folder. Copy the folder and paste it in the EA Sports Directory and rename it to NCAA 2004. Go to My Docs\NHL 2004. Copy this folder and rename to NCAA 2004.

I will be releasing a mini program that is very basic that uses the .NET 1.1 Framework (You can get this from Windows Updates).

alright. thanx. i havent tried it yet, but what does it do when u start the game? does it give u a thing to choose which one to load? or is there like, a different shortcut or whatever to click on for each one?

and thanx for posting that pic of the full cage

ok, i'm really 2004-stupid. do i have to go the whole, fsh, bigugi thing to get the goalies in and stuff?

and with the files in the folders, is that just a copy and paste and overwrite deal?

i also have a question.. this may be an obvious one, but you never know

i have nhl2003.. will the ncaa addon work for that also, and if not, is there a way to wing it?

thanks
