New to these forums and to FM, so if my question sounds stupid, sorry.

Cheers

3 known issues only apply to 8.0.2 so you don't need the fixes for them if you use 8.0.0 or 8.0.1

Players Improved

--------------------------

- Benjani's finishing adjusted from 10 to 16

)

This is absolutely nonesense. There is NO WAY Benjani's finishing is this good.

At the end of the day if you want to use downloads edited by folk who are not part of the official research team then thats up to you.

If I was you I take a trip to the data issues forum under the Portsmouth Thread. Sheer Class the Head Researcher will tell you the same. Benjaini has a very high work rate but his finishing really is NOT a 16.

If 8.0.3 becomes available, can you fix the patch so that Ched Evans is actually on loan at Norwich City from Manchester City until the end of the season please?

I have managed to get him on loan from Man City in a new game but is a bit irrating as there where a lot of clubs chasing him for a loan move.

I am never sure if requests like this are just someone having a bit of fun or serious.

As I was brought up the correct way I will say it was serious and yes robbo101 you can carry on your game after you have installed the patch. It is always said that for best results start a new game.

Dear SI - I noted that you was going to keep an eye on the forums over the weekend. Did you find anything that needed solving which can't be done by the Defoe tweak?

I will wait for the new patch if further tweaks and adjustments are made. If nothing else needs to be done I will download 8.02 and use the editor. I bet the LLM gang are having a fit if they have to use the editor icon_wink.gif

man,this is ridiculous...I can't believe that this is the final patch.We'll have to get used to defenders scoring 30 per season until fm2009.

I think SI are ashamed right now to release a fixed patch,because it will ruin completely their reputation,being not the first time this kind of things happen(remember 7.0.2b)

Hopefully they will be making a rehash of the patch. I'm sure they understand that there are some problems with the release and if they said they will be looking to give out a new release then I have to believe them. If they don't well then we can say then.

Would ruin their reputation more to completely ignore the problems, maintain that there aren't any issues with 8.0.2 and not rerelease the patch at all.

IMHO, the game is totally playable, 98%-99% working fine (most users won't have any problem with the game patched) and have some issues. For some people those issues are apocaliptic errors, for me are not. I just enjoy one of the best sport simulation games in the world icon_smile.gif

Just a question: do those problems annoy you so much because the rest of your life is so perfect and without problems? You may consider yourselves quite lucky icon_razz.gif

Can someone please help me. I've downloaded and run the patch, but when it gets to the data editor update it stops and says that it cannot update because the data editor is being used by another program.

If I keep repeating it goes past this problem, but then at the end says it cannot update because the file is being used by another program?!!

The game is closed, and I have deleted any saved games, tactics tec associated with it.

Has anyone else had this problem and can anyone help?

You said the game is not running, you dont have the db running do you? Otherwise try re-downloading as the download may be corrupt

It seems daft that it's been almost a week, and there are known issues which are straightforward to solve. Why not re-issue?

I'm waiting to begin a network game with friends, but i'm unable to because even when we fix the patch, it still says we're all running different versions.

I don't understand what the delay is achieving?!

There are two cases:

1. SI announces loud and clear: A fixed patch will come out in the following days,because we understand the game is stupid now

2. SI doesn't announce anything and this will make fm fans angry

3. SI announces that this is the last patch ,many of us will return to 8.0.1 or will do other interesting things,like live our lives...
