This is a major update to my modification allowing players to change team uniforms on the playfield, backglass, and now desktop and DMD!

 

Why would you play a hockey game and not see the score?  Not in the millions of points, but in goals scored? In the spirit of Gridiron, a number of EM baseball games, and Flipper Football, I added a feature to allow players to play for both points and goals scored.  While I was at it, I gave overlooked attention to desktop view and the third backglass screen (which I don't have at home) with multiple new backglasses!  While I don't have a third DMD screen, I have a "real" DMD in the form of a ZeDMD which prompted my to learn the dark mysteries of FlexDMD and produced one for goals, points, and team logos.  I can't thank scutters enough for feedback and putting my script back together after I horribly mangled some of his earlier work.  Tie game? Of course not. Points are used to break ties in "Overtime."

For solo players, I added scripting to generate opponent scored based on performance from the previous 9 balls played. Option switchable in script. 

Another switchable option is to score one goal at a time for every hit, or allow multiples based on how many drop targets fell.

 

A nvram file is included because the dip switches need to be changed to track current players correctly. You can instead open up the dip menu with f6. I changed the option text to indicate which should be selected.
 
This is a modification of Armyaviation's Ice Fever that allows selecting home and away teams from all 32 NHL franchises. Hold down left magnasave to change away team with left/right flippers, and hold down the right magnasave to change home team.  Holding down either or both magnasaves and pressing the launch button advances team selection by an entire division.   You can hold down both magnasaves to change both teams at once. Teams are arranged by division and then alphabetical by city.
 
Thanks to Armyaviation for allowing to modify his table. I never could have done it from scratch!. Also thanks to Wildman for letting me use his backglass as a starting point.  His original backglass still works with this table.  The included backglasses all show the team uniform changes and the scores and other backglass stuff. There is a "Classic" Version, mostly like Wildman's Backglass, a "City LED" version which simulates an alphanumeric display showing team names/cities, and a Widescreen version, specifically formatted for 16:9 screens that includes team logos.

Love this idea and love the fact I can play as my devils! One small issue I noticed. When using the wide screen backglass, if you hit the pop bumper on the left  side of the table, the home team on the back glass changes to the default original team. You can cycle through to get back, but I figured this isn't suppose to happen.

I think I fixed the disappearing team problem and submitted a new file for downloading. Please pm me if any other errors pop up.

2.1 seems to have fixed this. Teams aren't changing anymore. Thank you!

In the script I found DOF commands from the bumpers that matched snippet numbers in the backglass. I don't know why dof would affect backglasses, but that's what was happening. After renumbering, there doesn't appear to be any more dof issues.

all DMD boxes are behind the backglass and I have to ALT+TAB to get them to come in front.  Any fix for this?

I finally figured out how to make proper backglasses that can do everything I want, no longer relying on DMDExt. I updated the file to 2.2 pending approval.

Great stuff!

i had some trouble with the backglass, but i probably didn't read good enough. I put in the old one and it works fine. 

This table gives me a better pov for depth, a better ball and the ssf is very nice. Thank you :)

I'm getting the same errors.  In script under options if you turn off AIplayer2 the error clears so you can at least play the table.  I'm guessing the AI has to be configured somehow.

Thanks for the feedback. Had to deal with new variables being written for the first time. Fixed and re-uploaded. I actually had originally prevented this error, but when I kept having the data erased, I removed it and it worked. Silly scripting! All better now.

Love the table first of all. It's spectacular. I am only slightly confused about where I should put the color dmd on the backglass but Ill follow the photo best I can.

 

More importantly I assume when we officially know Salt Lake's new team we will change the Coyotoes to that yes? Poor Coyotes....

 

Anyway Lets Go Rangers...
