Can someone tell me which game file can be edited that contains the equipment brands in order to match up the game player equipment in NHL View to what the players are using and/or is shown in the game?

Can someone tell me which file lists or contains the brand(s) of the equipment (helmets, skates, sticks) worn/used by players that show up in NHL View??

So, with all of the good work and talented add-on creators here. There's not ONE single person who can answer my question or tell me the game file(s) that lists the brand of equipment manufacturers that show up under player identity in NHL View?

Yes, I know you can change what each player wears/ uses for equipment. Can you change the list of equipment manufacturers & models to match the updated .fsh and/or add-on/mod files? (Ex. Warrior, Reebok, etc.)

Or is it a 'trade' secret?

DSgamby is on it.

I had noticed a couple of Easton stick entries and the Goalie helmets/masks manufacturers that are listed in the local.viv /front english.bin and thought perhaps there was a file (listing all of the equipment shown in NHL View) somewhere that could be edited to match up the skaters equipment manufacturers models listed in NHL View with what the players are actually using in game? Along with matching up the equipment to the various created mod/add-ons (Ex. Ar79, etc.) that are available. Mainly interested in changing/editing the brands/models of sticks. (Ex. Warrior sticks, Bauer Nexus Skates, etc., RBK/CCM, Mission sticks, etc.) Perhaps it's not possible and they're "hard coded" like Icetiger1067 thought? Let me know if anyone ever figures out a solution?

Thanks for your responses guys.(and/or ladies?) I appreciate it.
