The Manic Depressant Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 They might do if there are not enough eligible teams above (ie the rule about being founded 5 years prior). I just couldn't produce a case where they did play myself. Hence my asking, cause it seems to work this way but i can't prove it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Manic Depressant Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Also has anyone found a way of stopping the Champions League running in FM09? The trick of changing its continent to Oceania no longer works. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartwork Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Was Slovakia a swappable league in 08 cos I've tried a swap with Slovakia and it crashes in early August. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lower Leagues Rule Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Slovakia works for me...? I have my East German League running there...my guess would be you don't have enough clubs in the Slovak Lower Division or too many teams in one of them maybe...cause Early August is the first draw for the Slovak Cup...

I tried a league swap between Cyprus and Slovakia but the Slovakian teams still play in the Cup. Did that not happen for you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lower Leagues Rule Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Actually I just realised the Slovakian League is the one that didn't work...It is the Slovenian League I got running fine. So the Slovakian league is the only one so far that has not worked for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duy1 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Did u guys do like Dave said? I tried to swap Vietnam with England, then Belgium but none worked :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heartwork Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 SO Slovakia was unswappable... damn, so I've wasted about 3 or more hours working on a doomed project. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcujer80 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Ah ha! I swapped the leagues around for Brazil and Russia, changing the Brazilian first division to Continent:Europe and Country:Russia and made Russian Premier a Country:Brazil and Continent:S America. It worked and the brazilian teams could qualify for the UEFA Champions League and the Russians qualify for the Copa Libertadores. Right... now to use the Brazilian championship to create a USSR league with the State championships as individual soviet leagues, see you in a few months everyone!G.T. Just a head's up on the Champions League with edited databases. If you put a non-European country (like I have with the USA) into a European league (like I have with England) you will slowly experience a problem with your coefficients and start to lose Champions League places. In my case there is no way for any English teams to make it into European competition so after the 08/09 season they no longer are getting any coefficients. After the second season of all English teams having a 0.000 coefficient England dropped to only having 2 ECC spots and 4 EC spots. Eventually the English league will drop far enough down so that they only get 1 ECC spot and 3 EC spots even if the American teams playing in it won every tourney.

Lower Leagues Rule Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Did u guys do like Dave said? I tried to swap Vietnam with England, then Belgium but none worked :confused: Ahhh I did it differently and got all my leagues working so far except the swap into slovakia (Though it may be a Catalan teams problem) All I did was swap the teams into a league (Any League) and made sure I used the Competitions Page Swap button, then I renamed the nation to what I wanted it called, renamed the leagues and then swapped all the cities and players over. Best way to move the cities and players is to move them to an empty country first eg U.S.S.R. and then move the other lot in and perform the switch that way.

If you used my method mentioned in the above post the problem disappears as the country is still actually England...just renamed... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if that will actually work with the USA but I'll give it a try. The US stuff is difficult because of the strange way it is coded so it doesn't act like normal countries do (mainly in regards to youth development).

LazyFig Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Does anyone know how many clubs I can remove from Greek Lower League and Greek Regional League and still be able to run the Greek League? I ask because I want to edit the Greek teams into a new nation and don't want all the Lower League and Regional League clubs.... I tried reducing the Greek Lower League to 18 clubs, but that didn't work.... Heeeelp?!?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you edit until next tier below the last tier you are playing you'll be fine, since only these clubs will be promoted onto your game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyFig Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Thanks Alexandre. However, the Greek clubs in the lower divisions appear in the cup so I wanted to get rid of as many as possible and then replace the remainders with new clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Thanks Alexandre. However, the Greek clubs in the lower divisions appear in the cup so I wanted to get rid of as many as possible and then replace the remainders with new clubs. Do avoid that problem... swap as many teams as you can out of the Lower Leagues, preferably the clubs with the higher reputation as they are the ones selected for the cups.. I swapped about 25 all up just in case And for anyone who might know.. Is there anyway to get a continental championship to work if your playing in different continental formatted competition i.e - I have swapped MLS with Poland but (from what I believe) because of the different season start/end to the rest of the American competitons, it crashes. I'm wanting to find a way to put the american clubs in the American Continental Championship. Thankful for any help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
