gstarblues Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I am in season 2019/2020 with Rangers having taken them all the way to the top and further when i noticed that i don't have any league games schedule in my fixture list!! So annoying! Cup and Champ league games are there. Every other league that I have loaded has its full league fixtures scheduled, so I am now the new manager of Real Madrid. They have not won the league or champ league for over 5 years so time to bring back the glory days. Sad that my time at Ibrox has come to an abrupt and harsh end! :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike7077 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 It's so long ago that I was frequenting General Discussion, bought wasn't this a bug on one of the old patches? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bug in the game. It has been documented before and has nothing to do with NAV. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzie MUFC Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 what utter twaddle!It's a bug in the game. It has been documented before and has nothing to do with NAV. It's not "twaddle" as you put it, I have seen it mentioned by one of the SI staff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton162 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 NAV may have caused this problem and SI have confirmed it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kickballz Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 It's not possible as described previously. Could you please supply me with a link to SI's statement. NAV does not 'chew up files'. It is nigh on impossible that a corrupted file could behave in the manner described here. For a start, anti virus software does not corrupt files. If it detects anything unusual it quarantines it and then informs you - it doesnt just delete bits of the file! And even if it did, the chances that file would still load is next to impossible.

Norton is renowned for being carp Av software, which classes other AV as virus's. But by the fact that Norton as you said "it quarantines it and then informs you" by quarantining the file it removes its connection to the game, hence is lost of information, key data in game.

Absolute nonsense. You wouldn't just lose 'key data' and everything else works okay. You clearly have absolutely no idea of how NAV or any anti virus software works these days.

Celtic_1967 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 What part of 'SI have confirmed that Anti-Virus software can cause this problem' do you not understand. We are not saying this for the good of our health. Why would we make something like this up! I mean ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smac Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Patch up. It won't happen again, IIRC. AV can 'mess' with files. That is kinda the point FM isn't the only game to have had problems with certain AV. No need for name calling or trolling over this fact. This isn't IRC for goodness sakes!

gstarblues Posted August 9, 2009 Author Share Posted August 9, 2009 Sorry for the delayed response everyone. I was already up tp date with the latest patches in the game so the bugs has happened dispite the patches. I managed to get it back, i found an old save (had it under a different name for some reason) the only problem is that it was from October. So instead of playing the year not knowing if it would crash again I went on holiday for the full season. Good news it has worked and the season has loaded with no problem!! Few! My assistant mgr did well: league, champ league and both diddy cups Onwards with my domination ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipknot67 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 It's not possible as described previously. Could you please supply me with a link to SI's statement. I'm pretty sure this is the post people are referring to regarding Norton quarentineing FM files. There's a problem with Norton where it incorrectly detects FM files as being in need of quarantine and so it quarantines them. I know that this can cause some people to start a new season (sometimes several seasons in) only to find they have no fixtures, because Norton has gobbled up the necessary files.Norton is cack anyway; I'd change your AV tbh. (I recommend AVG or Avast for free options, and Kaspersky - which I use - or Nod32 for paid options). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
