[D-Bus]

hey guys

1) do you know if there is a list with all preferred moves with explanataions what each ones does?

2) and what about which preferred moves are best for which positions and roles?

thanks in advance, guys

I can provide you the list mate, straight from the language file, I think the list is complete although looking into code is sometimes trciky, I think most of PPMs are pretty meaningfull as well.

But for more explanations regarding positions and role, I recall a thread where somebody pointed out another thread on FM-Base which was pretty good actually, can't find it again though, I should have add it to my subscriptions list. Hope it helps

I haven't ever seen these three below in the game. Are you sure they're implemented?

- Tries Tricks

- Moves Ball To Right Foot Before Dribble Attempt

- Moves Ball To Left Foot Before Dribble Attempt

The only thing I am sure of is that there are in the french language file of FM2011, basically I have the english PPM and the french translation just beside. As i am a bit curious I have as well players interaction regarding learning of some moves. So maybe it is not of any use in the game, but I am 100% sure they are in this translation file.

Naks, is this the guide you're talking about?: http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/f73/player-preferred-moves-guide-a-definitive-look-t31727.html

I wrote it some time ago for FM10, based on my opinions of how they seem to work, so I dont claim it to be 100% accurate by any means, though it would be nice if someone from SI could have a look and say either way.

Check C. Ronaldo. He has "Tries Trick" in his PPM.

curious about the italics ppms, i know you can't teach them, but can they be learned thru tutoring. for instance i have a midfielder with "arrives late into opponents area late" and i want some of my youngsters to learn this as well. but if this can't happen i don't want to have him tutoring anyone as he really doesn't have much else to offer.

Good guide, although I think there are some new ones for FM11 e.g. knocks ball past opponent. I have this on a poacher with 17 pace and acceleration and it seems to work well.
