NepentheZ Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Just delete the patch then. My Documents > Sports Interactive > FM08 > Data > Updates > Folder containing 8.0.2 (and 8.0.1 if you have it). Just drag those folders on to your desktop, and you'll be able to play. When you wish to continue your game, put those folders back in there, and you'll be patched up again to 8.0.2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
