Dino Eze Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Hello, Also posted this is the bugs section but no replies maybe I will have more luck here, so here goes: I want to start a game with Steaua Bucharest in League III, I add it at the new game screen as playable but when the database loads up it is grey and cannot be selected, does anyone know if this is because it is not playable or is it some sort of bug? For all other nations lower leagues that I have seen, this works. Can anyone please help with a fix of some sort as this is my dream start in FM21. I have also attached SS of this. Thank you very much in advance, Dino Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
latrell Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 You may have to wait for the editor guys get to work and upload the league for you, i have downloaded a leagues megapack but Romania isn't in it yet but it will be soon 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Eze Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 @latrell First of all thank you for the response. The thing is I can add it as playable at the start of the game(as in SS below), for any other league I add like this it works, I have been playing FM since 2005 and I have never ran into these issues this is why I made this account and find this a bit peculiar.

latrell Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) i wonder if it has anything to do with the league start date, i see you have start in england pre season try starting it Romania. Edited November 28, 2020 by latrell 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dino Eze Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 I thought so as well initially and tried every Romanian start date and still no dice... Hope it gets fixed, because I really want to play this save . 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

metallimuse Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 The third division isn’t actually playable, it’s a view only. I don’t know why it’s listed as playable, wrong choice of words. I think the French bottom division is the same and one of the Scandinavian leagues as well. Caught me out last year after I spent an entire day doing homework on all the teams in the Romanian 3rd to try and choose one for a save. Was fuming when I realised as I’d wasted a day 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the first time I actually wanted to play such a low league team, I planned this all day at work :). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the first time I actually wanted to play such a low league team, I planned this all day at work :). I spent a day researching all the clubs, the cities, all sorts. Had a big excel spreadsheet and finally settled on a team with the idea to do a career thread and then discovered it wasn’t playable. I still don’t know why it’s listed as ‘playable’ but not, it’s incredibly misleading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ben Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) You can play in it but you would have to be relegated into it. You can never take a job there. You could holiday a year to play with Steaua Bucharest? Edited November 28, 2020 by Brother Ben 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a specific club you were looking to manage ? Yeah, CSA Steaua Bucharest, they have all the trophies and history as they won them in court from FCSB the team in Liga 1 a team now founded in 2002, so they have a Champions League won in 1986 and 20 something titles, I wanted to get to Liga 1 and hopefully take some silverware from the posers FCSB , maybe bring in some former loyal staff and players and focus on youth to feed to the national team. I have an idea though which I am now trying, they are the best team in their league and expected to win it, so maybe just sim a season and pick them up in Liga 2. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Could you therefore holiday until the end of the season and then take over the bottom club and go down to activate the league and then add a new manager for a different team in the the third division? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could only be that team. Or at least that's how it has worked on FM for as long as this has been a thing in Norway Romania and France iirc Worth testing the theory though, shouldn't take too long Edited November 28, 2020 by Brother Ben 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes not sure why it's set as view only, but I recommend going on holiday for like 2 seasons before actually starting your save, I hadn't had the time to test it for very long but works well currently.
