canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Not too sure what your exact problem is. You may have accidentally been setting Team Settings. Go to Options > Manager > Go on Holiday - if you have been doing that and something odd is happening there, you'll need to post a bit more detail so I can understand your problem.

robwa Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 thanks canvey, the bottom right option...ok and cancel is missing????? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Right. I assume you're using Windows XP, but it would be similar on Vista, so just adapt - go to My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\data Then delete everything in that folder. Let me know how you get on, you may need to reload the game or reload the skin before the change takes effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Sorry, I instructed you wrongly. The folder you are looking for is actually in your install directory (e.g. C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive...). But before doing that, you may not need to do so. It seems you have put the FM Resource Tool in that folder somewhere. You might be able to fix your problem by just deleting that, or moving it to another folder. If that doesn't work, or you have no Resource Tool, you may need to clear out the data folder and replace it using the installer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robwa Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 can't find a Resource Tool so i may clear it out thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Okay, but I think you'd have to reinstall to do that. Try running a windows explorer search for the system tool to see if it isn't just escaping you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 When searching, the archive name is 479.zip, and the executable is called (without the quotes) 'resource archiver.exe' Try running a search for both/either of those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robwa Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 i have found a resource archiver will i delete it? what is it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Delete it - it is used for unpacking the fmf files, which set some of the preferences in the game, basically is used by Skinners to create skins. I don't exactly know why it does what it does, but I think it unpacks the files when the game is launched - delete it anyway, or move it out of the Football Manager 2008 folder if you want to keep it.

robwa Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 deleted, re loaded game still no joy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Can you do a clean reinstall. I've not done one before, so I don't know if it will delete your save. Best make a backup of any save games and graphics/tactics etc. you want to keep just in case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
