For some reason, a players Season Stats won't come up as one of the dropdown boxes on a players profile page when I try to change the box. Playing on Windowed mode and 85 per cent zoom if that helps.

Noticed that just like FM22, people who are favoured personnel at clubs/icons etc are far more favourable to join a club as manager when perhaps their ability/reputation doesn't match.
In a tester save I noticed Neil Harris go back to Millwall, Wrexham's Phil Parkinson head back to Reading, Neil Lennon get the Leicester job and Nigel Pearson linked with it. Seems very heavily weighted to those kinds of moves when perhaps it doesnt't ought to be.

I belive this in as intended. SI confirmed in the beta thread that they have reduced the number of formations the AI will pick from. Something to do with wanting to make sure players arent used odd roles which you wouldnt see them used in IRL (eg using Mason Mount as a holding CM).
Ah - guess that makes a bit of sense. Just want to make managers are as accurate as possible, looked like there was a real lack of formations that include actual central midfielders and not defensive midfielders

Whilst people are here - anyone who has fired the Pre-Game Editor up or is able to now - do only a small selection of formations appear when looking to change a coaches Preferred Formation? It's a lot less than previous years and feels like a bug...(already put it in Bug Tracker but no response yet)

I do and they're all in my save (fired up today).
Seemed to be a weird glitch on my end then as they were in the Editor at their new clubs when I fired it up at 1am UK time, then they weren't this morning. All sorted now by validating the files!

How strange. Maybe try validating the local files in Steam (right click on the game, properties, local files, validate) and try again. If not then raise a bug over here - All Other Issues - Bug Tracker - Sports Interactive Community (sigames.com) I don't have the game available in front of me at the minute to test to myself I'm afraid.
Followed the steps, gone back into the Editor and it appears that Emery etc are all now at their new clubs once again as they were from the start. How strange!

In that case they may have happened after data lock. Can't remember when that was off the top of my head.
Strange development - as I went into the Editor right after it was released Corberan/Emery/Carrick etc were all at their new clubs, hence why I posted what I did Now I've just gone back into the Editor and they are no longer there, back as being unemployed/Emery at Villarreal...

Have you started a new game? Database changes aren't able to be applied to existing saves.
Yep started two different saves and the same issues are there. No Corberan at West Brom amongst the others I've mentioned.

Updated my game to the full version but the likes of Emery to Aston Villa, Michael Carrick to Middlesbrough etc haven't been done in my new save. Checked the pre-game editor and they are all done in there from scratch but just not in my save...

No official forum for it yet I don't think but on a person's Non Playing History on the Editor you can't type anything into the boxes. Trying to update a manager's exit date but nothing's happening.

I would open up a bug report if I was you.
I sent a support ticket earlier in the week and they suggested removing any custom skins which I did - still didn't work though.

Does anyone else's FM revert to Full Screen Mode when loading up the game? I play in Windowed and it's really frustrating when I keep having to change the settings every time I load it up.
I'm on a MacBook Air M1 if it helps.

Can confirm the high quality of the M1 MacBook Air for FM21 - runs like an absolute dream. This is the 8GB RAM, 256GB storage version.
It hasn't heated up once and I use an 85k player database with quite a few leagues loaded. Great stuff.

I'll try to get some when I'm next on. Also I really like the scoreboard on the Light Skin but after I put the Match Screen Mod on it reverts back to the original scoreboard. Is that supposed to happen?
Anything on this @michaeltmurrayuk?

They should be set by the settings file - grey role boxes are set by the line bits (defender_line, goalkeeper_line etc) and duty colours by the duty lines underneath them listed in the special colours section.
The player box should be controlled by player_tactics_box but it's status will also be controlled by the various picking player... colours depending on the player status.
Names should be controlled by the various tactics player name... colours - different ones for different status.
@BenW. IGE is a logged issue, for the match screens overwriting the skin files with the mod files is correct, but need screenshots of any match issues as didn't notice any in testing.

I'm using this skin along with the Match Screens Mod and text is white in some areas - including when I use the IGE.
I'm pretty sure I've put the MSM in the right place, but did I do the right thing in replacing the 'match' file in panels or did I have to merge them together? Not sure if it's that file that is making some text white or the skin.

So i just got this problem today, but i fixed it.
This is how i did it:
How to remove the Preference and catches
I removed the Preferences and catches, i just deleted them.
Got into steam and found the game:
Verify Integrity of Game Files:- Restart your computer and launch Steam
- From a game's library page, select Manage > Properties.
- Select the Local files tab and click the Verify integrity of game files... button.
-
Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
Then i open the game again and loaded my save. This worked for me.
I use skins and graphics and sometimes that makes it a bug.
Try and see if it works for you
Works for me but then every time I close the game down, the next time I re-open it I can't use the in-game editor, so then would have to do this fix all over again.
It's incredibly irritating and should've been fixed by now.

Something I've noticed - in the FA Cup Second Qualifying Round (and all Qualifying Round) the real-life draw is always regionalised into north, midlands and south (sometimes even north west, north east etc), however I've just seen Warrington from the north west play against AFC Sudbury from Suffolk.
Is this a bug or does the coding not allow the regionalised draws?

- Zihni already exists, but he's at a Turkish club now so he is unlikely to be loaded into an English save
According to Maidstone's website, he played for them against Billericay in the league yesterday...http://www.maidstoneunited.co.uk/2020/11/maidstone-united-1-1-billericay-town/
Is it a different player who is at the Turkish club perhaps with the same name? Very strange

For some reason, my under-23 team for Newcastle United were placed in the English U23 Division 3 in 2022/23 season , despite winning promotion from the U23 Premier League Division 2 the previous season, meaning they should be in Division 1.
I have uploaded a save called 'newcastle2023' so you can investigate the issue - although I'm already a few months into the season so not sure if it is much use. Cheers!

Don't know which thread is exactly the best place to put this as he currently doesn't have a club, but his last club was Barnsley.
Bambo Diaby is available to sign and play in my game from the start, however he's banned from all football activity until 16 January 2022.

Is there any reason why wingers always seem to take the number 6 shirt when it's free? In general terms you'd usually see a centre back or centre midfielder wear that number. It's only a minor issue but it triggers the OCD in me!

Just a small thing - Rhys Williams of Liverpool should have Preston North End as his favoured club due to being a supporter of them.
Retweets their results regularly and has posted several tweets.

Is there any way around the Latest Scores during a match showing like this with none of the club names really showing?
