FM2010 Time Machine

[dan mnk]

Your probably thinking wtf! But let me explain, I have decided to emulate a ‘time-machine’ in Football Manager terms. I have holidayed many seasons in different countries and saved the game after each year.

This will allow you, the fans, to download a save from 2010 or any year up to 2025, I will be looking to further the years soon, but I wanted to use 2025 as a solid base to get lots of different countries done.

This post will be updated every time a new country on FM2010 gets ‘time machine’d’ and I will link you to the post which will contain the list of saves for that specific country.
I hope you enjoy this feature, because it will allow you to start a new game but in the future, just by downloading a save game. It’s as simple as that….Do you want to play with all regens in the year 2025? Or just get the first season over and done with because its boring? The time machine has alot of possibilities and different scenarios for you to utilize so enjoy

Countries so far:

England - http://www.aidtheboss.com/england-fm2010-time-machine/
Italy - http://aidtheboss.com/fm2010-time-machine-italy/
Spain - http://aidtheboss.com/spain-fm2010-time-machine/
Germany - http://aidtheboss.com/germany-fm2010-time-machine/
France - http://aidtheboss.com/france-fm2010-time-machine/
Scotland - http://www.aidtheboss.com/scotland-fm2010-time-machine/

If you get any problems with installing, post here and I will try to help. You need patch 10.2 for them to work and details on how to install them are in the post. Feel free to check out my blog whilst your there I have just created it, and feel free to comment on anything I have posted with anything you want

Enjoy guys!

something different ..........will have a go after new patch

cheers

How many leagues/nations do these saves have?

[dan mnk]

So far, just the one country for each all leagues loaded. Going to get about 7 or 8 single countries done first, and then i will make a large one. Decided this because a save game with every league loaded for 7 or 8 countries will be a huge file and make most computers go really slow, so will do two types but single countries first, hope that makes sense.

[davidnio_42]

This is really interesting, thanks for all the work.

[DerbyTiger]

im not knocking this idea but why not just start a game without real players loaded. surely the only difference is that you will not have the likes of wayne rooney and ronaldo managing later in the game. plus i have found it sorts the men from the boys in fm managing terms as you literally have no idea of any good players in the game and have to start from scratch and build it up steadily, especially if you have your previous experience as semi professional and randomise what team you will be. all prejudice against teams is lost this way and i have had many great games

Err... whoosh?

Not knocking what you're saying but I think you're missing the point.

[DerbyTiger]

true i did on on a bit of a ramble there

[dan mnk]

Yeah you could if you wanted to start a new game, but the idea of this was to fast forward time and start in any year with real players, or the later years with regens. Plus some people just like to go forward and look at how players have turned out etc

I'm posting this so people are aware:

These save-games are likely started with 10.2 (?) and therefore *some* features fixed in the patch (10.3) would be unavailable - those you need to start a new game, as starting this save-game is not a new game.

[mackemforever]

Thanks for this.

The only questions I have are about what leagues are loaded and what database size.

For each nation is it just being run with all the leagues from that country loaded?
Also, what is the database size?

Thanks.

[dan mnk]

Database size for all is Large, and for now each nation is run with all the leagues loaded from that country, but soon im hoping to make one mega save game with lots of countries loaded all leagues

[carlos95]

the england database is small

[dan mnk]

A good number of downloads so far Feel free to request a country and I will get onto doing it asap

[dufcrule2k9]

I downloaded the 2025 version

And i almost died of laughter that we (scotland) were ranked 3rd in the world

Hopefully this game is very realistic

[dan mnk]

Haha, Scotland 3rd in real life? Dont think so Maybe in a dream or something

[ZoL!]

It's cool. I bet some people will find this very helpful

Cheers Danny boy!

[dan mnk]

If anybody wants to request a nation for me to do, I will be happy to do it now its half term, lots of spare time on my hands

[ArsenalFan7]

Thank You.

Been looking for one of these!

[dan mnk]

[ArsenalFan7]

I think it's useful although it's on the verge of cheating but it's up to the player how they want to play. Personally, I'm going to check how Verratti develops, thanks.

[welshace]

loving how you put """"time machine""""" as if its a completely original idea....

fmportal had this a year ago...


nice idea though

Still have to respect the effort he's put in, original idea or not.

[welshace]

hence the last line in my post

and my comment wasnt disrespectful... i just imagined him saying """""""time machine""""" in a certain expressive way which was funny to me ...

Sorry mate, I interpreted you saying nice idea in a sarcastic tone as you mentioned earlier in the post it wasn't his idea. Silly me.

[dan mnk]

I just put the "time machine" because its a different way of saying 'saved games from 2010-2025 for all diferent countries on fm2010'. I know FMPortal used to have it a couple of years ago but I thought I would remake it seeing as that's not reallly active anymore and thought it would be a nice download that is there for any fm fans if they wanted it.

[ism-scfc]

Can you do more than one nation?

ie - England, Scotland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Wales

or - England, Spain, Germany, Italy, France

[dan mnk]

Yep, file sizes will be huge so thats why I done single nations now, but in a week or so I will be making a few multi nation one's including one with every big country in the world

[dan mnk]
