Andy20 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Any Recent Database updates out there guys? Asked on Sortitoutsi but no one bothered to reply:( I like FM 2007 more than 2008 and I don't think I shall get 2009 so I really need a fairly recent update as I have just bought a new PC and installed FM 2007 on it but I now need to update the database before I start a career. I managed to update my FM 2007 on my old PC with an August 2008 update which was a good update, can't remember where I got it from now though and I can't find it anywhere!

Andy20 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 Tried it, no luck though. Someone on there has asked if there is a September update for FM 2007 and the administrator said "Sorry we aren't doing updates for FM 2007" That sucks!!!!!!!!!! Am I only one that thinks FM 2007 is far better than 2008? I wish I could remember who it was who was making data updates for FM 2007, they seemed to be determined to keep FM 2007 updated to recent tranfers and their database update which I downloaded for my old PC in August was a fantastic update.

Andy20 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 this is the most up to date version http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YJ30AS1X I downloaded that the other day and tried to install it but it came up with loads of errors:( Maybe it's because of Vista and all that stupid administrator rights? I'm sure I installed it wrong or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy20 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 Haha well I just downloaded that and installed it and when I go to start a new game the database isn't there to choose! AAARRGHHHH. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
predsjednik Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Haha well I just downloaded that and installed it and when I go to start a new game the database isn't there to choose! AAARRGHHHH. Extract the downloaded file into the following directory: "My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2007/db". So you will have "My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2007/db/FM2007 Data Update Season 08-09". You will be able to select the database then. If that didn't work, try reinstalling FM 2007. This update really works for me! Tell us how it went! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew_ Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Might have been linked already... http://www.football-manager.info/fileplanet/file/FM2007-Data-Update-Season-08_09-v2.html Try putting it in the Programme Files/SI/data/db if it's not working elsewhere It's what I'm using. Also, with SIOS down, anyone know where i can get the last version of Siple skin for FM07? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy20 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 I managed to get it working in the end, thank you Just what I needed! It runs like a dream on my new PC. For years I have been on a 512mb ram (upgraded to the maximum it would go!) with a 1.5 ghz processor and I had to play it with no other programs running for it to run smoothly with 8 leagues. Now I have started a new career game with the latest update for it and around 30+ leagues running and it is faster than my old PC when it ran on 8 leagues!!! This is how I always wanted FM to be played, lots of clubs to manage and lots of players to find, I haven't felt this excited about starting a new FM game since FM 2007 first came out!
