Simple questions about editing and the editor - just ask in this thread

dac0605 · November 24, 2021

I'm trying to swap my USL club (Birmingham Legion) with Charlotte FC, who is set to join MLS in 2022. In the editor, I've gone to the MLS and under 'Teams for Next Season' where Charlotte shows up, I've just hit 'Swap' and inserted Birmingham. I then edited Birmingham's financials, stadium, etc. so that it's more in line with MLS clubs vs. a USL team.

Yet when I start up the game and load the edited file, it still shows Charlotte as joining MLS in 2022 and, when simmed ahead, they join the league in 2022 and not Birmingham. Is there something I'm missing here? Is there anything else I need to do or should just swapping the teams be enough?

Thanks.

Hi, I am new to FM and wanted to know if there is any way to edit the age of the players in bulk. Basically what I want to do it edit all the aged super stars so that they stay as players for longer time. But I want to change the Birth year only, not the full date of birth. They can have the same birthdate, just a few years younger.

I know this can be done via In game editor but I need to do it one at a time for each player. I am also aware that I can do it in bulk via Pre game editor but that way changes the Date of birth completely

I apologize if this has been asked before.

Hello, is it possible to change / edit the questions from the press ?

If so, anyone has developed something ?

Thanks

Hi al, I'm wondering if anyone can help me with a few things please.

How do i make it so that all those leagues affected by brexit act like it never happened in fm22 please?

Where do i go to remove squad registration rules and Substitution rules for any league in a specific country e.g. england in the fm22 editor as i know they have moved the squad registration rules this year please?

How do i do the same as above but for all the european competitions please?

If anyone can tell me how to do these things in the fm22 editor or point me to working files where this has alreasdy been done for fm22 it would be really helpful.

Many thanks for any assistance

ianvou · November 27, 2021

Hi, i created a competition colours fix for personal use. My question is when i load a custom lower league database (for example Spain), changes do not seem to apply (if i do not use the custom db no problem).

Obviously the game uses the competition colours of that specific custom database but since my file is only colour changes is there anyway to ''force'' the game use my changes instead of the custom database? If yes how can i make it work?

Thanks in advance!

Samuel77 · November 29, 2021

@vourtsio Maybe try to rename them, for exemple:

01 Colour

02 Spain

The first one should be yours.

Hello!

I want to create an "Old Men World Cup" with 128 teams, where just over-33 years players can play. In advanced editor, where can be set this age criteria? I tried something but I get error. Please help!

#BrozBeforeHoes · December 6, 2021

Hello. I hope I am on right page to get some help.

I have some issues with crashing.

I use a lot of mods...(all nations and some made up cup tournaments etc...) Im very sure that I don't have 2 same databases.

My game crashed on specific date and it was on 19 June 2021 so I removed some mods and it worked just to crash on some other date this time on 10 July 2021

I tried reading crash dump file but I don't understand a word in there when I opened it with WinDbg.

Can someone please take a look at it and try to see where problem is. I really don't understand anything in this WinDbg

I think it could be one of the cup competitions but I cant be sure. Please help me out. Cheers

Supermercado99 · December 11, 2021

Can you force national teams to pick foreign based players outside an international break? I've got the competition set as 'international finals' and played in late July/early August but the teams still only pick domestic players. This sucks for countries like Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales that then don't have any of their English league based players and give caps to people totally unsuited for international football.

bradmark991 · December 17, 2021

I've added an II team into a lower division (2nd tier in Bulgaria), however I can't figure out how to change their stadium? Whenever I open a game, they're still playing in the club's main stadium and getting crowds higher than the first team. Can anyone help?

albertluque · December 21, 2021

Is it possible to create a team in the editor who create newgens from different countries? As in, an English based club who produce Vietnamese academy players for example? Like FC Romania in Eng or the many Croatia/Turkish teams in Germany.

forameuss · December 24, 2021

Is there some hard limit to the number of competitions in simple rules, particularly secondary divisions? I'm trying to create a British State Championships in the style of Brazil, so a huge number of secondary divisions have been added (think it's 96 at last count). All validates fine, but in game there's only 6 actually existing while the rest are missing. It is the first in the list that are appearing, so doesn't appear to be any settings with the competition itself. Be a bit poor if there's a hard limit.

This question will confirm how new I am at this...

I have a custom .fmf file that I want to make some tweaks to, but in the editor it wants to load only .dbc or .xml files.

Based on what I'm reading, do I need to use the resource archiver to export the .fmf file to a .xml before editing?

Try amd fail, start over again and continue to fail. This is how I have learned basic editing. Resource Archiver is powerful tool. 😏

oviedo · December 28, 2021

I'm creating a new league and have filled the manager position at each club. Do I need to fill the other positions in the backroom staff or will teams hire their own staff once the game begins? I know I can tick the option for teams to have automatically generated staff before starting a season but that seems to load regens in all the vacancies.

Any help appreciated.

Hi

I have a problem with FM22 pre game editor.
When I try to search the database under players, no data comes up - only the purple background and then it says that there are 109 items - but I can not see data or get to see which players are in the search.

funnylittlefrog · December 30, 2021

Hi

I want to regionalise the early rounds of the FA Cup. I've done so before in previous versions but can't remember how I did it. Can anybody help?

Cheers.

Seftinho · December 31, 2021

Hello, long-time FM editor here who loves spending hours in the editor every instalment micro-adjusting the hell out of everything. I've been using it for years and have a reasonably good understanding of what can and can't be done, and how things like player attributes, weak foot attribute, number of positions etc impact on the recommended CA dependent on the player's primary positions.

I skipped FM21 so I don't know if this is a new feature to FM22 or was introduced last year, but I notice there is a new (?) section in 'Player data' called 'Weightings', and a new field called 'Controlled attribute'. However I can't find anything anywhere (does the editor even have a manual?) that explains what either of these mean or do. Would anyone here be able to shed some light on how I can use these? At a glance, it looks like the controlled attribute is simply the attribute value converted to a 1-100 scale and automatically adjusted to match the player's CA (which is useful to know), and the weightings seem to just display the same information from 'Current Ability-Dependent Attributes' but in a different format and with 'Add', 'Clear', 'Remove' buttons that don't seem to do anything (admittedly I only tried on one player). Is there a way to adjust the weightings at all, or otherwise what's the purpose of this section?

I also note other new sections revolving around 'Role' and 'Position' scores, plus 'Peak Current Ability' and 'Peak Potential Ability', so if anyone has any more information on how these are generated and what they mean in actual game terms that would also be useful to know. Most youth players seem to have the latter ratings set to their CA and PA which is a bit concerning, but I assume the name of these fields must just be a misnomer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm trying to swap my USL club (Birmingham Legion) with Charlotte FC, who is set to join MLS in 2022. In the editor, I've gone to the MLS and under 'Teams for Next Season' where Charlotte shows up, I've just hit 'Swap' and inserted Birmingham. I then edited Birmingham's financials, stadium, etc. so that it's more in line with MLS clubs vs. a USL team.

Yet when I start up the game and load the edited file, it still shows Charlotte as joining MLS in 2022 and, when simmed ahead, they join the league in 2022 and not Birmingham. Is there something I'm missing here? Is there anything else I need to do or should just swapping the teams be enough?

Thanks.

There's so much hardcoded stuff (draft picks, international slots, even Charlotte entering in 2022) that your best bet is to just swap all the information - like Birmingham becomes Charlotte, Charlotte becomes Birmingham (name, stadium, rosters, everything). This way the drafts and all the MLS-specific stuff will still work.

A complete swap would also involve searching for anyone with Birmingham (now Charlotte after these changes) in their history and changing that to to the new Birmingham (the old Charlotte unique ID) as well.

Where can you edit financial fair play? Like make it apply to nations outside Europe or custom/edited leagues?

Krakow1991 · January 2, 2022

Hi All,

Is it possible to create an entirely seperate league system within a country to run alongside the existing leagues?
For example perhaps a US style-college system of University/Academies that produce youth footballers who would then eventually move across to the main league system.

Thanks

NJS10 · January 2, 2022

Hi Everyone,

I decided to have a go at adding the Welsh lower leagues to my game. My first go at creating/adding leagues.

Is it possible to create playoffs across 2 leagues?

Example: For Promotion into the JD Cymru South, teams finishing 2nd in the Ardal SE and Ardal SW go into a playoff against each other to determine the 3rd promoted team.

I can't figure out how to do this in the editor.

Thanks

How can I make a league play more games? Currently the top division in the Faroe Islands only plays 27 games. I would like them to play 38.

Nvm, found it. Follow up: How do I remove 2nd/3rd teams? The faroes are infested with them and it makes the league structure look awful.

There is section "reserve teams", there you can add, remove or rename ( to change 2nt team into under23 etc) them.

Hi all

Is there a way in the pre-game editor to stop teams being charged a percentage of their gate receipts for stadium rent?

I have already set a figure for the yearly stadium rent but in game it presented this as the amount + 50% of Gate Receipts.

1) No

2) You need to add a continent to that nation. If you can't there is an edit you must do in the files, can't recall now, but if you do a search in this forum you can find the how.

Disclaimer: This is Editor 2020, if there is any changes for Editor 2021 or Editor 2022 you need to address it... as you didn't say which version you are asking for.

In the editor you need to search the player and when have it, in the contract tab select the "Loan"

In the club option you will search the club you want the player to be in loan:

Then you will edit whatever options you need to edit:

Hi yes I'm.using editor 22

Yes I would of thought of it pretty easy to do if there was an option.

However on my editor under contract menu there is no sub menu for loan or future transfer.

Not sure why this is not working

That's not possible if the two databases are already created... there's a way in which you can merge two databases, and in that way yes, it's possible to transfer one competition to another.

But explain further what you want, are those competitions from different countries? Are you trying to set two rules (different countries)?

Tomtheowl95 · January 19, 2022

Apologies if already asked.

Just wondered why putting a future loan on a player like a future transfer doesn't (and hasn't ever as far as I know) work? If you put them in the player's loan will start at the start of the game rather than on the date you want it to.

I'm currently making a future transfers database where players will move on the day they have in real life and going through the transfers day by day. Would be interesting to know if there was proper explanation for this.

chris011 · January 30, 2022

When creating a custom league and you have want multiple divisions on the same tier of the pyramid, is it possible to have an annual draw to allocate with division team fall into either random or seeded, instead of teams staying in the same one except for where they have been promoted and relegated or vis versa.

Is there a way to make clubs less trigger happy when sacking AI managers?

I'd like them to get about a season or two minimum if possible.

I'm aware of the future transfer for players, but doesn't seem to be a viable option for managers.

If there is nothing I can do with the pre-game editor, then I can just use the in-game editor...but that will get tedious.

Can't remember the exact term but I think there is a 'patience' stat for chairpeople that effects this.
