Regarding custom databases, from different years.

A quick look around the forums will see a lot of demand for old databases, in FM2010, I've seen around 5 threads where people have attempted to make their own, just looking around (97/98, 95/96, 94/95, and one from the 80's and 60's).

The obvious problem is it is so time consuming to get it to anything like a decent level. However, if SI could perhaps develop a way so that other users could do different bits of the database, for a certain season, say 95/96, then combining the database- surely that would work? Or is such a system possible right now anyway?

As I wouldn't mind doing 2-3 squads in a database, but I wouldn't do more, I'm sure there must be a lot of people around the forums that wouldn't mind doing so.

Any thoughts?

I'm not really familiar with the FM2010 data editor, but I think you can merge changes which may be what you're after.
