So do manual line changes just not work? I’ve just been playing with auto changes because every time I try to use manual changes nothing happens when I try to put a certain line out during while play is still going on.

Perhaps you can use the same preset setup that I use as the default for the game so people with xbox controller can load game by pressing the view button (-) and saving with menu button (+).


That way F8 not necessary either, instead view/-.


I know some command (fights for instance) gets lost by using the view/- to load but perhaps that can be mapped to keyboard instead.


It is a workaround for the freezes at least until they are figured out...

I think it's much better and less complicated if we can save state by pressing F5 and load with F8, asi it's how it is is in most PC games.

This way you not loosing any controller functionality, I don't see any benefit really in doing it your way?

Yeah, there is a bug in the default game (NHL 2k11).

It might be possible to fix this somehow with the mod, I haven't time to look at it yet.

Hah, we will sort it out.

Try start the game with lower resolution. You do that in the Dolphins Graphics tab.

Ya, I looked at that and tried to dumb it down even further as best I can tell. Same result. Probably my processor speed. I knew this computer was a mistake when I bought it, but it does play the Steam game I've purchased pretty well. I'm not comfortable with overclocking as I can't afford to have anything go wrong.

Thanks for your efforts though. Someone needs to get you a job with a company that is willing to challenge EA in their crap game. You're a genius and tenacious.

Nah you're probably right.
It's just that I play the game lika a console game mostly, without the keyboard, that way I found it more seamless with doing everything with the controller.


The good thing is autosaving with +/menu button, you will get checkpoints you can go back to when it hangs without having to think about it.


I had the new broadcast camera when it froze.

I’ve had the game freeze I think 3-4 times now. It seems to happen behind the net a lot for some reason?

Re: 2KHS v0.7 (Nov 2019 release)

I'm having some trouble with installation. I got a copy of 2k11 USA version and followed the installation instructions on facebook. The banner for the game shows as an X on Dolphin and when I press play a black box shows up and disappears. Nothing happens after that no matter how much I mess around with settings.

Re: 2KHS v0.7 (Nov 2019 release)

I've had more freezes sadly. Have not been able to finish more than one game without a freeze so far after playing 3-4 games on the default settings except resolution that I increased one step.

Re: 2KHS v0.7 (Nov 2019 release)

I like the new gameplay except the fact the puck seem to stick a little too much to the boards. Can be quite annoying at times, but I also like the puck battles it creates.


Another thing is the difficulty level. Have not played too many games yet but my first finished game I won 8-0 with Vancouver against Edmonton, using my current NHL Roster though.

You mean crash to the desktop or that "loop" from which you can recover with savestate (F8)?

To make the game more difficult, you have a bunch of sliders to play with.

My default sliders are equal for CPU, your CPU teammates and you. It's better for the newcomers and also for a position lock.
But it might be too easy for competitive gaming or if you need some constant challenge, because it's basically playing you and your CPU teammates v.s. CPU now.

So I would start by upping the CPU defensive aggressiveness and CPU shot accuracy.

Then lowering your CPU teammates checking/poke/sticklift help (tendencies)

The speed of your CPU shouldn't stop the game to start tho, must be something else...

Can you confirm that the game won't freeze for you without using the codes please?

The easiest way to disable them at once is to uncheck the "Enable Cheats" options in Configuration tab/General and then start the game WITHOUT using the F8.

Re: 2KHS v0.7 (Nov 2019 release)

I can try. Don't have very much time to run the game atm though...

Re: 2KHS v0.7 (Nov 2019 release)

Any tips on how to speed the game up? The game says it has 60+ frames but slows down to a crawl when I play an actual game. Ive tried changing some graphic options on Dolphin already...

Re: 2KHS v0.7 (Nov 2019 release)

I have been following the development of this for a while now. I have been playing nhl 2k11 on dolphin for a while, just waiting for this release. I have the same problem as another user and have kot figure it out. The I have an X box in dolphin where the 2k11 logo should be, and when I try to start the game, a box opens up and than almost immediately closes. And thoughts as to what could be causing this? I'love to be able to play this with the mod.
