gmilitao Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Not at the moment, it starts at the 3rd or 4th qualifying round. The full FA Cup caused me problems last year so this year I've kept the default SI one in for now. Ok... thanks for the information Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you can do is select both databases when setting up a new game, and take a look to see if they work in-game. Should be fine, but sometimes problems occur when more than 1 database is ticked.

jon157uk Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Erimus.... Great work by you here and thanks for your time and effort. What I'd like to do, using your database here is to edit some of the team names so that they will represent teams from the local villages around where I live. The team names will be fictitious of course and I'll probably only edit the actual team names and leave stuff like player names, staff, stadium etc, etc as they are, is this possible for me to do? And can you tell me how to do this with the editor please? Thanks.... Jon T. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once its loaded, under 'Menu', click Database. Under Database, click Clubs. In the search box (next to Filter), type the name of a team you want to replace. Double click the team when its name appears. Then its just a case of typing the new team name over the one you're changing. If you want to change kits you'll see on the left hand panel (under the teams name), lots of stuff you can change, one of them is kits & colours. Clicking that will bring up the panel to change them. When finished save you DB. Thats it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to be a pain mate! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erimus1876 Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 Ok, follow the steps above but instead of clicking "Clubs", click "Competitions". Now in the search box type "north west counties" This will bring up all the North West Counties leagues. Double click "North West Counties Premier" This will bring up the competition details and on the left hand panel click "Teams" All teams in that league will now a appear and you can double click on the one you want to edit from there. Once you've made your edits, click on Database (under Menu) and it'll take you back to the competition list, and you can just repeat the steps from there.

I'm now playing FM 13 as manager of my village team, in North West Counties Premier...hahaha, all thanks to you and your great work here bro! One thing of note though.... I don't know if it's because of this edited data or whether it was just something that happens sometimes but at the start of the season the game sold virtually the whole of my first team squad, well I say sold but they all went on frees of course cause they're nearly all on none contract terms. Fortunately I was able to get 4 or 5 new players in and took a few from my youth squad who don't look too bad so I can at least field a reasonable team.

Fortunately I was able to get 4 or 5 new players in and took a few from my youth squad who don't look too bad so I can at least field a reasonable team. If your team has amateur status its hard to keep hold of players since they're mostly on non-contracts, so other teams will come in an poach them. Expect to have a high turn-over of playing staff while you're an amateur club. It can be frustrating but it adds to the challenge. Also if you spot a team making an approach for one of your players, often offering him a new contract (even on the same terms) will get him to stay with you. If you get promoted and start doing well, your board may make the club go semi-pro, then it'll become easier to keep your squad together by getting them on part-time contracts. Good luck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the lower leagues but it's imposible to make any money without a cup run. Sorry, no plans on adding an extended FA Cup for this. I think FCUtdWills L10 db will have one tough when its released. If you can have a good run in the FA Vase to the Semi-Finals you'll earn around 25K, and another 15K for winning it.

And if you read post #47 you'll see the compromise I eventually made by adding a less process-intensive version of them them since a few people wanted them.

SamwiseLUFC Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Evening, playing as Canterbury City (Kent Prem Division). I take it amateur clubs are unable to sign players? Odd one or two of mine keep getting poached by semi pro's but it wont allow me to sign anyone. I was under a transfer embargo for the first 6 months and im still in admin but I am now able to offer contracts. Any ideas? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erimus1876 Posted December 10, 2012 Author Share Posted December 10, 2012 Amateur clubs can sign players, you just can't offer them long term contracts. You can sign players on non-contract deals, usually for a token £1 appearance money. Just search for out of contract players. Although still being in admin could be preventing you for the time being. Not 100% sure on this though as I've never managed a club in admin before. You'll always get your players poached by other clubs while in amateur status. But you can do the same to other amateur clubs. I usually have a high-turn over of playing staff for the first few months of a season before the transfer activity dies down.

SamwiseLUFC Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Cant sign players from other amateur clubs, cant sign players with no club. I have no option anywhere to offer them a non contract deal. Just held a trials day and cant sign any of them edit: unless im missing something blindingly obvious, which i dont think i am edit again: it was the admin. news story just came up about canterbury city bankers strengthening the clubs financial position to be able to refuse and negotitate transfers, happy days!

I'm in late September and have had no cup draws, and teams are currently playing in the second qualifying round of the F.A. Cup. Any ideas?Sorry if I've missed anything. Only 5 or 6 teams from the 294 level 9 teams take part in the FA Cup (its the default SI cup). So its pot luck whether or not your team will get a place in that cup while you're playing in a level 9 league. Once your team gets promoted to level 8 your chances of FA Cup participation grow, and once in level 7 I think you're entered automatically. All level 9 teams will play in the FA Vase. The qualifying round is in September. If you didn't get drawn in that round, you'll be starting in the 1st round proper which takes place around October 15th.
