JLlo Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I remember last year OLT had the same problem and he couldn't sort it out. I even had a look at the file and couldn't figure out what was wrong. I fixed it. Every round needs the ranking levels set for the winners and losers. The winners need the current ranking (of the next round) and then the highest ranking needs to be set to '0'. If this is not set then the winners of this round ranking will not change. So if no team can achieve a ranking of '0' then no winner will be recorded. So, the winners of every round need to have their highest ranking set to '0' - this tells the game that they can still win this cup/tournament. The winners, runners-up and 3rd place in the CFU Club Championship is now recorded and they enter the CONCACAF Champions League. Starting to get to grips with the advanced panel now, it is very hard and the amount of time you have to spend testing & tweaking is astronomical. Very rewarding though when things work!

Reiver Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 A little bit of help here please. I'm attempting to recreate the luxembourg leagues. There are two cups: Coupe de Luxembourg and Coupe FLF. The first three rounds of these cups are common, with the teams from the 3 bottom tiers playing eachother. From that point onwards, the top tier teams enter the Coupe de Luxembourg, and the lower teams reching this point also qualify for the Coupe FLF - so what I want is all teams that go through the Third round of this cup to automatically qualify for the second cup happening later in the same year, but no matter which settings I use this doesn't seem to work. What league fates and way to get teams on the other cup do I need to use? Anyone has ever had to do something like this? Simply can't get it to work.

magicmastermind124 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 You would need a combination of Fate Actions and Qualified teams (the tab in Competition). The fate should be Qualify Team for Competition and the tab should be getting Qualified Teams for Comp. Fill in the other sections and see if it works. It is the right direction but maybe not the right settings as I haven't tried it myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcoobc Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 There is no need for doing that - stopping all comps. You can make one competition a time, like you recreate CAF Nations Cup, then test it. If works, go on AFC Cup and so on. You can not erase thos from database, they must be active, and you can not add new ones. I'm sorry what do you mean? They must be active? I guessed that once when I tried to disable them and after a while it crashed, but how active? Can you create a dummy final? What do you mean I cannot add new ones. Do you mean that I cant recreate any of the International Competitions, but I can't create a new World Cup, or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinamo_zagreb Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I meant - you can not erase international competition included in game, nor add international competitions that are in database, but are not available to play. All you can is recreate existing ones, like Euro or Gold Cup or Caribbean Cup - but - you can not make e.g. AFC/OFC Challenge Cup activated, although it exists in database.

Basically the qualification rules pick enough teams when different teams win each competition but not for the same teams. If you know which teams would be picked in that case (e.g. it could be the US Open Runners up) then include them in the qualification (where the competition gets teams) at the VERY END of the team list. As long as you use max teams in that stage then the competition will stop when the number of teams reaches that number. I'll try to simplify that: Say for example you have the community shield. Only two teams enter but what if the same team wins the League and Cup? You'll need to get a third team - if you tell the competition to get one of the runners up then it will get the third team if necessary. If it doesn't need a third team then it won't get that far.

In the Nation file under division you should have all the leagues you want to be able to choose from when starting a new game. In the Competition section you should list all the competitions that the game will generate as playable (you can also tell the game not to load it if you do not load down to a particular level).

I understand those are for if you want to edit an existing competition rather than creating one from scratch. How do I load them into my list? 2. If I decide that I would prefer to recreate them from scratch (e.g., North American Champions League, MLS), will creating new competitions in the advanced panel simply override what's in the basic database, or do I need to do something else to ensure that they don't clash? 3. I'm hoping to get rid of the current Canadian Champions Cup and replace entry into the champions league with the winner of the domestic league and the winner of a Canadian open cup. If I set-up these two competitions and recreate the Champions League, will this entirely remove the Canadian Champions Cup? Some of the things I've read on the various boards give me the impression that this competition can't be deleted, but I'm not sure whether that was only using the basic editor.

Sorry for missing yours earlier. Firstly I will suggest that you do something a little simpler with the Advanced Rules first - try setting up a new nation and one division to see how it works. Look at the files in the eng folder of the comps.fmf file to find out more about how it works. As for what you are after, it is possible - what you need is to create the competition and set the first stage as a group - you'll need to tweak the settings so that each group has the correct number of teams you are after. You then need to set some settings to get the top teams in each group to qualify for the next round. Then in the next stage you need to get the teams from A and B first, get them to play each other then get the last team to play against the winner. Like I said, I think you might be better off starting with something a little easier to get your head around the settings before starting this - otherwise you might be biting off more than you can chew.

Thanks for all the assistance you've provided in the first week of my toying with this editor!! 1. First a notice that not all the settings are in those files - however the majority are (e.g. the English FA Cup doesn't have the command for which teams to get - if you don't add them in it won't work). Simply download the file or use your own comps.fmf file (can be found in the install directory then data for the original release then in the updates folder for each subsequent patch) which you can extract the contents using the Resource Archiver. Then load the editor files in the editor. 2. For this you need to increase the version number of the file - usually the game has version 1 set so anything higher will overwrite those settings. (I have noticed that the European Champions League does not overwrite at version 2, so in some cases it might just be worth setting the version to 10.) 3. To remove the Canadian Champions Cup you'll need to set up a new Continent File with a higher version number than what is already in place - you'll have to set up the qualification rules again as well as the fixture and disciplinary rules. This is the only way to remove the competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto Blizzard Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 So for question 1, once I've extracted, I just load those editor files the way I would load the .xmls that I've created... Ah. So as long as the version number (on the very first tab when you create a nation, continent, competition, et cetera), is higher than whatever is in the database now, it should overwrite. I'll make everything version 5 or 10 and see what happens. In the case of versions, then, zero is not the highest the way it is for placing in a competition.

Toronto Blizzard Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Could I just select Mexico in addition to Canada and the US when loading the game (the latter two of which I'm looking to restructure into a 'European style' format) without doing anything to the Mexican structure in the advanced panel?

Sorry I meant the problems with re-creating the North American Champions League is if your having the Mexican leagues running (like I do). You don't have to touch the Mexican leagues it's just been a pain trying to ensure you get the right 4 teams from Mexico for the NACL. Yes I've used paulgerty's file as a base... as I'm merely making it playable for my own game. Just ensuring MLS (untouched), NASL & USL are all playable and the MLS draft comes from the NCAA. All that is working fine now. I've also re-created the Caribbean Club Championship to include Puerto Rican qualifying & Antiguan qualifying before the tournament starts as PR Islanders & Antigua Barracuda are playable in game, so you want the chance if you manage those teams to qualify on merit not by random choice. The North American Champs League didn't work correctly so I've spent hours trying to sort that out and it's very difficult. I am under the assumption in paulgerty's file that all 3 of his USA structures are merged with the structure you choose having the ighest version number.

Toronto Blizzard Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Yeah, it looks like all the various structures are merged in each database. I asked precisely that question on his thread, which perhaps you've seen and are answering it for me! I've created Canada and have been testing with MLS as it is... I'm going to do a Canadian open cup tonight (or, what I can get done before I have to leave to see TFC play in the NACL) and hopefully a lower league cup. Have you created reserve divisions? When I created all this in nation rules for Canada, I had split my 80 Canadian clubs into four regional divisions for reserves and U-18. I created one parent competition for the four child 'tier one' regional reserve leagues and one parent competition for the four child 'tier two' regional reserve leagues. So, it would look like this: Parent Division 1: Eastern Canadian Reserve League 1 Ontario Reserve League 1 Western Canadian Reserve League 1 Pacific Reserve League 1 Parent Division 2: Eastern Canadian Reserve League 2 Ontario Reserve League 2 Western Canadian Reserve League 2 Pacific Reserve League 2 The relegation/promotion was supposed to be regional, with a playoff champion consisting of the winners from each of the League 1s. What I found under nation rules was that although each regional league clearly indicated the league to which teams should be promoted/relegated, teams that were neither promoted nor relegated would often get shunted into one of the other regional leagues for no reason. Now, my question. Do you think I should mirror this set up in the advanced panel? Also, any ideas on how to make sure the teams promote/relegate properly? I could spend more time on setting longitude/latitude for cities/stadiums and set boundaries, but I'm hoping there's an easier way in the advanced panel, since each regional league structure is, to an extent, self-contained. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicmastermind124 Posted July 27, 2011 Author Share Posted July 27, 2011 Latitude and Longitude is going to be needed for the cities if you want to keep everything balanced. You can set each Reserve league to mirror the Main Division in the Nation section therefore keeping the teams in the right division. However this will be a simple league, and is either 1 or 2 round robin. To create something more complex you'll have to set up the competitions like any other league. You could set the Reserve leagues to be regional and you can set each local region for each Reserve League. When you set it up you must have the "Number of Teams" field set - this is actually the average number of teams each group will have. You can then choose to set the min and max as you wish. Look at eng.xml to have a look at how it is set up for England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmJ Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Once you get to grips with the advanced panels this should be doable. Setting up stages and choosing the winners of which stage play in the next stage and so on. I recommend downloading other peoples files that they've created using the advanced panels and use them as a guide. Has Any 1 got any files they bee kind enough to give me using the advanced panels so i can please use them has a guide many thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicmastermind124 Posted July 28, 2011 Author Share Posted July 28, 2011 Same problem as guy above. Try extracting the file contents to your desktop/documents then copy them over to the format folder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toronto Blizzard Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Gentlemen (and Ladies?), When I loaded a test save this morning for the database I'm working on, I noticed that although each team has a reserve squad and a U-18 team, the players on each were the same and there was actually no one under 18 on the U-18 team. I don't know if it has anything to do with the U-18 team, but I've set the minimum and maximum youth contracts (to 14 and 18, I believe) and the minimum senior contract to 17. I wanted my teams to be almost completed populated with newgens - I've added one or two players to each team (a couple of teams had full rosters - Toronto FC, Vancouver, Montreal), and I find that most teams have fewer than twenty players when you start the game. When I initially created my league in the basic editor I didn't have this problem. That said, I had created league structures for both the reserves and U-18s, which I have yet to do in my advanced editor file. Is there a particular setting I have to alter to: a) fill the teams with a minimum number of players (the maximum squad size for each league is currently set to 30) b) generate more U-18s c) ensure that teams start with only U-18s on the U-18 tab. Thanks, as always! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasH Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 I have a real Problem at the moment and i am not sure if that what i want is possible at all : My Problem is , i want to change the german regional Divisions (level 4) for the season 2012/2013 from 3 Divisions to 5 (Season 2011/2012 to test it) So i added two more Regional Divisions...(and all the required settings for it)...and if leave i it that way - they work (the new Divisions just show up as with no teams and not scheduled in the game...) But as soon as i add "STAGES" to one of the New Divisions ...the game won't update the season anymore (relegated teams just stay there as relegated forever) Does anyone have an idea how to do this ?!? p.s. i nearly tried everything possible... (even two parent competitions one for 2010...2012 and one for 2012/2013 -...nothing helps) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reiver Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 maybe upload the files and we'll have a look at it? Maybe we'll try something you just failed to do or notice and it'll work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
