Tornado2007 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Can somebody please explain to me how i can load up my own database, well even before that i cannot save it, for example i have edited Torquay, moved them to a new stadium and put myself in the team. However it will only let me save the data edited rather than the usual 'save database' even when i merge the edited data with the database there seems to be no way of saving it, therefore when it comes to choosing which database i want to use on the 'new game' menu, my TUFC database does not appear??? any help would be greatly appreciated thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paz Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Tornoda, you do not need to save your changes as a separate database. The Editor has changed from FM2009. Just 'save database', giving it the filename 'torquay' for example. When clicking 'New Game' inside FM, you will get a dialog box appear called Choose Database. Notice in this box it will have section saying Editor Data Files and a 'Change' tick button. Clicking this button will allow you to select which of your files to load into your game.

markgarness23 Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 Thanks, but I still can't get into it. I have right clicked on the Icon and still can't see anything that suggests data editor. I have followed the path that has been displayed but all I get is the program files!

Neji Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 You need to double click the editor.exe and it should pop up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neji Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 When you start a new game you should be asked which DB you want to use. In the dialogue box you should see a section called 'Editor Data Files'. There is a tick box to the left which is labelled 'Change'. Tick it and continue, it should then let you choose which data files you want to use. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Smith Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Woah, this editor is driving me nuts. When you save 2 files, say file one says player x has pa 150, then file two the pa is changed to pa 145 among other changes. Won;t the files contradict each other? When I first start the game, it prompted me to select the data files, which I did. Second time round when I tried to create a new game, there's no such option?

Neji Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 In that case, try clicking Start --> Games. You should see a FM2010 icon, right click it and click Run Editor. Having said that, you should have a Steam folder in your program files if you installed it via Steam. Not sure why it wouldn't show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
