Thanks for looking at this. I have attached my edit file. It may have few additional changes made when i was trying to understand whats happening / try to workaround it, but its still crashing the same.

It started crashing when the the qualification rules / teams selected for stages should have worked supposedly in A league.

Thanks for the file, I've got the crash reproducing now so have logged it for further review.

Thanks for the file - have checked and this does appear to be the same crash issue logged internally, so all good it's already under review.

[fm21 no players showing up in datebase]

Hi all, this is a known issue we currently have under review internally. We haven't isolated what is causing the issue yet, but we do know that it happens often even after the user has already used the People section of the database without issue.

Some users have reported that closing the game and Pre-Game Editor, deleting the contents of the ...AppData\Local\Sports Interactive\Editor 2021 folder, and then restarting the Editor has been a workaround for the issue.

[In-Game Editor purchased but not appearing in game while offline]

Hi all, there is a known issue currently where being offline on Steam will cause the In-Game Editor to not be useable - this is logged and under review currently. As many of the posts in this thread are related to this issue, I am setting the status of this thread to known issue.

However a couple of the posts seemed to be related to having IGE issues whilst online potentially, so I have split these out into the following thread:

If I have a missed a post from above (or if you are experiencing this issue regardless) then please post in the thread linked that you are having the In-Game Editor issue whilst still online. Thanks

FM21 runs perfectly. But the in-game editor makes with me the same problem!!!   --->  Control at Downloads:  "Connection failed and Error: 1000"

I bought it via Steam yesterday, this DLC is installed, available in the library and the pencil is not displayed ingame. I play online. The in-game editor worked perfectly in FM19 and FM20 immediately!

I hope there will soon be a satisfactory answer.

Edit: Now I have tried several other possibilities like Steam restarting etc. - Unfortunately nothing helps.

Same problem for me here.

FM21 runs perfectly but in-game editor its not appearing in the FM menu even tho I bought it from steam, it appears in the download section but no pencil ou the menu after I load the save

As u can see in the image I can "download" it in the game but the pencil on top corner dont appear

Hi guys, I've split your messages out into a different thread as the In-Game Editor not appearing whilst offline on Steam is a known issue - but from the sounds of your posts you are both not able to use the In-Game Editor in a new save game even when purchased and online. Is this correct?

If so, Arvid is your profile set to online on Steam or hidden/something else (just to double check) - and just to confirm, you're getting the connection failed error on the Downloads panel whilst online, correct?

Rodaz, does this save game have the In-Game Editor enabled? (This can be checked on FM > Game Status)

Ah excellent! For whatever reason these files reproduce the issue for me, but not the other files uploaded in this thread. Regardless, thanks both for uploading these - I've now been able to pass this issue onto the relevant coder to investigate.

Thanks again, as I was getting nowhere trying to reproduce this one.

Hi Sorry

My problem is with the Ingame editor not allowing me to edit personal details as it shows no results.

When using editor to edit Personal details and then selecting Favorate Person or Favorate Club and adding a person or club I get the following blank search results no matter how long i wait it can not find anyone or any club:

Hi there, this is a separate issue with the In-Game Editor that we are aware of under review. If you select the Enter key or the search icon the search results should complete here.

Hi Guys,

this problem has already been reported and it happened to me today too. I made moves with the editor, creating new staff from scratch and then making classic player moves. Nothing of the structure has been touched, only creating new players and moving players to other teams in fact it does not ask for any verification. The file is accepted by the game at start-up, but when it loads, a crash dump is triggered and the game closes.

I am attaching both the created file and the crash report

Hi guys, I've merged your two threads because these crashes are a result of the same issue. This is now logged internally as a bug for further review. Thank you muchly for providing the files.

Good evening guys,

As the title states, when i try to start a new game using a edited data file that i just created (few player staff and club changes) it crashes and i get a Application Error,

Any Help Would Be Greatly Appreciated

Thanks Guys

Hi there, as Ringo has responded this is likely the same edit file crash logged elsewhere. However just to be safe, could you upload your edit file so we may double check that it isn't a separate issue? Thanks

I have the same issue. I have deleted the editor and the hidden files but the list still will not populate despite showing the amount of records there should be.

Same thing has happened to me. I think I accidentally switched from the 'default' view  to one named 'copy of default' and  that's when the columns disappeared. I don't even remember creating a copy but that's maybe why it's blank. 
Can't find the AppData folder to delete preferences to try and fix it on mine but I think that would work. Tried deleting my editor config file and reloading, eventually uninstalled the editor to try again but no joy. Now just uninstalled FM and FM editor to reinstall but again it's still not showing any columns. You would hope a preferences folder like this would be much easier to find as such a small issue basically means the editor is useless when the columns are gone.

Hi guys, I think this the root of the issue - there seems to be a UI bug here with all the columns being removed (which shouldn't even be possible manually).

Firstly, could you both copy your current AppData\Local\Sports Interactive\Editor 2021 folders and upload them zipped to our cloud service if possible? 

 

Secondly, if you right click on the space above the highest tick (indicating a search result but with no information displaying) does the option appear to add more columns or edit your current view? This won't resolve how the issue occurred in the first place, but might act as a workaround if deleting the cache folders isn't working.

Hi there, you are correct that this is hardcoded in currently - however this should in theory not apply to edit files so I have logged a bug for this to be changed. Thanks for raising this.

[Crash when adding league to nation's list]

17 hours ago, magicmastermind124 said:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Add an existing Nation (it seems to happen with any, so pick England) and convert the Nation Rules to Advanced Rules.

2. Click on List and select Add from the list.

This results in the following error:

Sadly easily reproducable, it also seems to crash when I select insert.  The only workaround for now is to duplicate list entries and make changes from there.

I am trying to add a league the the list of South Korean leagues, in the advanced editor, to enable me to edit the advanced settings of the league I am trying to add.

But the moment I press the 'Add' button, I get an immediate crash dump. Any idea what's causing it?

For replication - I just simply load the fresh database, then Rules -> Add Nation Rules -> Add Lower Divisions for Korea -> Rules -> Convert to Advanced -> Click List on the left -> Press Add -> Crash Dump

I have attached a screenshot.

I'm trying to add competitions to Mongolia and whenever I click the "Add" button for competitions, Editor decides to crash and die. It happens with every nation I try to add (I used an editor file from FM20 in this screenshot which is why competitions are shown, but I also get the same error when starting from scratch in FM21).

I think this is another issue than the verified one that's been reported already, as I can verify the rules, but I can't add new divisions. I've attached the .dmp file as well.

I've unlocked the lower leagues for Poland in the editor down to tier 4 with tier 5 as the inactive division.

Although I can't select any custom leagues when loading the database in the game. 

As you can see down below it appears and is selected before hitting the "Advanced setup". 

But when I am supposed to add the lower leagues after the database has been loaded they're all gone.

Hi there. To clarify, is this just under the People section in the database and does it not populate with players after selecting both Apply Filter and pressing enter on whichever search conditions you have enabled?

I'm afraid there is just the one skin on the official release, however the Editor's Hideaway is more likely to have knowledge on custom-made alternatives.

[[England] (Official) League Specific Issues]

On 23/11/2020 at 09:01, Jugers said:

The "Brext Bug".

I know we have had an explanation that the WP system for the UK is correct, but I can't help but think its broken. I can't believe that players like Sandro Tonali can't qualify for a permit to play in England on £75k a week? My suspicion is that the work permit is using the selling club as criteria for the work permit - ie it lis looking at their contact at the selling club, as well as the league reputation at the selling club rather than that of the buying club and the new contract offer. The reason I say this, is when I have signed players without a work permit, one is always granted at the first attempt to get one even when they have played no games for me or their country in the interim.

There has to be a bug or these game rules cannot be correct as it's making signing young players, even for hefty transfers and contracts, impossible.

The player below is an example of this. But also read what it says. I have had his application accepted (after 120 day wait) but it says below, that he would fail an appeal due to his N/A wages? This is clearly broken and needs looked at

To clarify on this, the bug here is the Reason text in general stating that wages are a factor. Wages are not taken into consideration with the new Brexit system - it is only the standing of said player's club & nation and the amount of games the player has played for them that are factors.
