tacrec Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 So I think I can get this going without rom modification, just by changing the colors in Nostalgia. Again, it's not perfect but close enough. My plan is to use the same 8 teams from the baseball league, but I also have two more: Sharks (blue/cyan) and Destroyers (Sea battle, blue/tan). So which teams should be in the league? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeguychicago Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 How about Nautica United for the Sea Battle team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mthompson Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Sharks and Destroyers are great names for football teams. I'd definitely keep these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpmaul69 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Sharks and Destroyers are great names for football teams. I'd definitely keep these.agreed. Now when do league shirts go on sale? Edited October 23, 2014 by pimpmaul69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 Destroyers would replace River Raiders, don't know how well that would be received. Didn't see any Snakes fans, so I assume they're baseball only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacrec Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 So swap Snakes for Sharks and River Raiders for Destroyers then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpmaul69 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) So swap Snakes for Sharks and River Raiders for Destroyers then?i say yes. I did like river raiders but destroyers sounds cooler Edited October 27, 2014 by pimpmaul69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted October 27, 2014 Author Share Posted October 27, 2014 Just ran a practice game, I was hoping the game clock was going to be faster than real time but it's pretty accurate. Finding 4 hours per week to play games is going to be tough. It was easy with baseball because one game took only 20 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthompson Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Sucks that you have to watch for hours and take notes for the game report instead of just checking back for the final score. Somebody needs to mod that game so the clock runs continuously, like real indoor football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 No I don't have to sit and watch it, but not having a score display on the field is a pain. There's just a clock. Don't know what the logic is there. A continuous clock would be nice. If you're actually playing the game, the stopping clock is useful, but in this case it slows the game down.

tacrec Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 I thought about trying to "speed up" Nostalgia, but it's not really working, and it only seems to be the frame rate. Any other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacrec Posted November 3, 2014 Author Share Posted November 3, 2014 Would someone like to volunteer to control and play these games? I'll run the website with the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mthompson Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Depending on how you've got the schedule set up, I might be able to run the games. I just did a test game that took about 1:15 using jzIntv. PM me if you're interested. Shirts are a definite possibility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntellivisionDude Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Part of my boring childhood was simming games (Com vs Com). I can't recall if i ever did it in Slam Dunk, Slap Shot or World Championship Baseball. But i did do it in Body Slam and Super Pro Football for sure. In Body Slam each wrestler would be a famous one from tv from either the WWF or NWA. I even had rankings on a piece of paper and a wrestler had to climb up the ladder to get a title shot. In Football i did it a little differently. The teams were just named after rock bands. Like Guns N Roses vs Metallica, The Stones vs The Who. Very silly stuff. But i could sit there all day and watch these. At the very end of my time with my original Intellivision the controllers were shot and would not work properly. Pretty much all i could do from them on is watch computer vs computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I think the standings change need a slight modification to "W L T" for Wins, Losses, and Ties. I don't think the notion of 'games back' is tracked that much -- moreso divisional games. so possibly: W L T DIV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacrec Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Sports leagues for existing sports are good and all, but what we really need is a new Inty sport AND a league for it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
