mseel82 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 In the extra files tab under preferences in the game you can turn "valid takeovers" off. So what i wanna know is what exactly is a valid takeover and what is not a valid takeover. How will the game change if i uncheck this box? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner86 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I presume more takeovers would occur, but would like further clarification on this from a mod or someone from SI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tottenhamfmo7 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I thought they were greyed out so you couldn't actually change them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tottenhamfmo7 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Just checked, they are all greyed out so you can't change them. But would still be good to hear from an official if you can change them and what they do? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler42 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 You can edit the file that controls what makes a takover occur. Just checked, they are all greyed out so you can't change them.But would still be good to hear from an official if you can change them and what they do? That's cause your in a saved game, You can uncheck them in the main menu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mseel82 Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Yeah you can definitely change them, you just have to look before your in a game (before you load a game or start a new game). I just cant imagine what an invalid takeover would be? I wanna start a new game today but want to find out what these options do so i can customise the game to my specs fully!

nerazzurri Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 It disallows various types of takeovers for various nations. You can have a look at the file in the football manager 2010\data\db\1000\edt folder to see exactly what it's doing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mseel82 Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Brilliant thanks dude. By the way have you seen what you can do in the add_my_chairman file?? Here's the jist of it : ##You can edit this config file to give yourself the chance of becoming chairman of your favourite club.## Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Brilliant thanks dude. By the way have you seen what you can do in the add_my_chairman file?? Here's the jist of it : ##You can edit this config file to give yourself the chance of becoming chairman of your favourite club.## I've never tried it because being chairman doesn't appeal to me since the game is called football manager. I believe though that all this will do is give the club a chairman with your name. You as the player wont have any other abilities within the club.

11Clarkie11 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 So to some it up, with Valid Takeovers unchecked, there will be more takeovers happening in more places in the world? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddy101 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 IIRC as it it the file prevents teams being taken over where it's not possible in real life (think Real Madrid with presidential elections etc). Unchecking this file removes this restriction so every team in the db could potentially be taken over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ac13 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 It'll just make it possible that a person with your name will take over the club at some point. Doesn't have anything to do with things you can do in game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
