How to edit the Islanders and Rangers team names at the startup screen
by Evan

In the NHL94 .bin file, there are 2 areas where the New York Islanders and the New York Rangers are listed. For some reason, they don't use the typical area around the rosters for the startup screen name like the rest of the teams. The screenshot below shows where in the hex their names in the startup screen come from.

Thanks to Wboy's research, here's how to make the .bin file use the same set of names for the Islanders and Rangers as the rest of the teams. Read below:

Bin File Offset: 000F7CB4

	» The New York Islanders team name for startup screen
	» The New York Rangers team name for startup screen

To change the Islanders to use the roster team name, simply replace the first set of digits below (000F 7CC6) to 0000 2D2E. This tells the .bin file to refer to this offset (like the rest of the teams). To do the same for the Rangers, simply replace the second set of digits below (000F 7CB2) to 0000 3022. Again, this tells the .bin file to use the roster team name as the startup screen name.

	» The New York Rangers team name reference code

It's probably a good idea to apply this edit to any .bin file that you'll be editing so if you ever change the team names, you won't have to worry about the Islanders and Rangers team names not changing.
