Like this? I may be misunderstanding too 

 

ding too 

That's what I was trying to describe, yeah. 

[fifteenminutes]

Added in 180 schools so far, (Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California). Nowhere near finished California quite yet. 

[fifteenminutes]

Alabama is now completed in terms of HS teams, along with Arizona & Arkansas. Working on California over the weekend as so far, it has the most teams / regions / conferences. I also began adding in towns / cities not included in the game and rectified some issues with other towns / cities already in the game. I am going to plug away with the teams once I finish work today and see how far I get and then I may post some screenshots onto the discord!

Unfortunately, the editor doesn't let you go below the age of 16. However, I didn't put in a 'minimum age' only maximum (as 17). I haven't been able to test it yet, but I'll let you know how it goes.

Yah I’m gonna look at their file tonight to see how they did that

In the editor files you should be able to change the minimum age field to allow you to put a lower age in so it doesn’t revert to the default; whether that will then replicate in the game I’m unsure on.

It works with competition levels as I’ve got more than 20 levels on mine.

[fifteenminutes]

Just about to hit 200 mark for HS teams and I’ve barely even scratched the surface. 😂😵‍

Do you know where that is or just when ur creating teams u set it?

If you haven't got the Resource Archiver, install that first.

Make a backup of the comp editor.fmf file in Program Files > Steam > steamapps > common > FM2022 > data.

When you open the Resource Archiver, extract this file to a different location to the folder above.

You'll get a folder called comp editor, which has a variety of folders.

In the format folder, there'll be more columns, you want the database folder in there.

Click on club.xml and open it in Notepad (or any other text editor), search for age, and you'll get options for both minimum and maximum ages.

Change the <integer id="min_value" value="16" /> and <integer id="max_value" value="21" /> to what you require.

Save the file, load the editor and away you go. You don't have to start a new edit or anything like that, works on existing edits.

[fifteenminutes]

I have decided this weekend I am going to take a break from editing. I don’t want to keep editing and then get burned out and then not finish this project because then I’d feel guilty. 😂 I’ll be back on Monday!

Is this for each clubs or just for leagues?

That's just for the clubs themselves, I'm unsure how you'd do it for the leagues.

I forgot the most important step in my guide earlier, when you've finished, create an archive based on your changes and overwrite the comp editor file.

Make sure to keep a backup of the original file before you do in case you make a mistake.

If I am making a custom team I have to create it in the editor first no then save the database and then open the archive

No, you’re editing the files that make the editor work, when you change the settings it’ll apply to all teams you’ve created and will create.

You need to create the archive again based on the comp editor, that confirms the changes, overwriting the one that’s there.

@fifteenminutes

 

I was wondering this breakdown thing.

Can you do like a League so like say Ontario High Schools(main tree breakdown) > HWDSB (League) and then within that league like a conference 

Sorry if this confuses... So if you go from the drop down Menu would see Ontario High Schools and then the league is HWDSB and then the league has two conferences East and West?

Pre season tournament. Each winner will qualify for the Soccer Bowl Tournament which will be a round robin knockout tournament during pre-season.

He’s not going to have to do everything over for FM23.  He can just use this database and make some changes to update it for FM23.  

[Fmfan00]

so i was finally able to figure out the whole sub division thing with the basic rules not advanced rules except for just not sure how to do the conferences within 1 league in basic rules.

[dino88]

something which i did with the other ncaa file was create affiliations with ncaa colleges and mls or usl teams.. for example ucla with la galaxy by which i had first options on future talent. not sure if this is of interest?

I don't think this is quite realistic as ncaa players irl can't go pro until they are drafted

Hello! Back editing today. People are asking me for updates and test files. I don’t want to throw out test files until I’m absolutely sure big issues won’t arise. Small issues I can deal with but big issues will stress me out. 😂 I’m hoping to have high school teams finished by the end of June. That may seem like a long time but it also gives me time to add in all the relevant information for each team. I hope you all understand.

343 teams in NFHS so far and I havent even finished California yet...

It's officially confirmed I'm an idiot. Haven't edited since Monday night, but I remember surpassing 30,000 changes in the DB. I've went on today and can't find the file ANYWHERE....abort mission

Does anybody want to help out doing kits / colours. / stadiums into the editor? I can keep adding teams and just merge the files together later. The help would seriously be appreciated! 

[fifteenminutes]

I am currently in the middle of creating a OneNote file (which will be downloadable), so I can keep track of states/teams I've created. This will hopefully be released in the next few days so you can all get a picture of how the DB is coming along.

I'm still not sure. I wouldn't want to give a date then disappoint anyone because I still have SO much to do. I've surpassed 500 teams in the NFHS and I've not even finished California yet. I wish I could give a date, 

[fifteenminutes]

There are currently 534 teams in the NFHS, from Arizona, Arkansas, Alaska and Alabama. i am continuing to create teams as I go but this is proving to be a lot of work for just one person. Having said that, I still have every hope that I can get a file released before the release of FM23. I am creating Regional and State Championships as well as a National Championship for HS teams as far as I possibly can. 

If anyone wants to see screenshots of any club / HS Team, please let me know!
