v.4.00 released (for files see bottom of this post, and/or first post) - some basic error fixes - general housekeeping - trophy pack config IDs updated after Winter Patch (for new games on the new Winter Patch database, use 4.0 - if you have a current save game using 3.0 of my file, continue to use Trophy pack 3.0, or the images won't match anymore) So this will be it for FM24 (unless anyone spots any big errors which need amending) Hopefully for FM25 I will be able to carry this file over and make some amendments, let's see how they implement the Women's game first and what impact it has on the database If I have to do it all again from scratch, fingers crossed I have the time Rob x The Editor Data File The Trophy Pack

Man I wish they'd just give us this in the Editor to use freely and easily I'd love to create a cosmopolitan City club league, like something from the old European Fairs Cup - where each City club could only sign and play players bought in London, Sao Paulo, Lisbon, etc. The dream (well for me, maybe I'm sad haha)

Hi guys, Not to sound too much like Gary Neville here .. but how can we make the game fairer? (but in our case via the FM Editor Advanced Rules, not the Government) I want to think of ways to level the playing field a bit more in-game as I'm tired of seeing the same kind of teams win things (unless you holiday to the year 2152) Been thinking of things like - .. 1. A Scandinavian style footballing revolution - make all clubs Member Owned with Elections, a limited number of term times, and Stop Outside Takeovers - with either NO promises, or ALL promises across the board (so not the odd club with Promise More Money, a la Real Madrid) 2. Remove all and any current Foreground/Background/Underwriter benefactors as well (just in case they stay when election time comes, not tested if they go or not when the current Chairman leaves) 3. Amend the Rules for individual nations to - - Introduce Max Wages for Domestic and Foreign players? (but can the in-game AI cope with this kind of change when it comes to building squads?) - Implement more rules to have homegrown players in a squad (but again, can the AI cope with this?) - Reverse the prize money in leagues, so the bottom most teams get the most money, the team who finishes 1st gets the least (Bayern and City and PSG don't exactly need that £30m kitty every year right) - Remove parachute payments and replace them with a one-time prize for finishing bottom (to stop as much yo-yoing) - Provide lower leagues with prize money for positions (for example, the Championship doesn't have this) to make them more competitive and ready for the fight - As well as a nice pay packet for winning the Playoff Final (to give them a better foundation for Prem season #1) - Give better financial incentives to do well in the earlier rounds of cup competitions, not just the tail end (when the big boys turn up) - Either remove or overhaul TV Money, and introduce it to lower levels as well where possible 4. Maybe a controversial one .. but remove any current Debts so teams aren't starting this new phase with an arm tied behind their back 5. Remove stadium rent for clubs who don't own their stadium, or make all stadiums owned (not sure if this can be mass edited mind?) Any thoughts on anything that can be reasonably done in-game?

3-4-3: Total Possession
Rob 396 replied to Adonalsium's topic in Tactics Sharing Centre (Upload/Download)
Dunno if anyone cares or not lol, but I changed this into the below formation - working well - nothing changed apart from positioning and roles (I had a 3-4-3 before, of my own making, and didn't want to have to start introducing wingers etc. so ...) with this as my 'away' formation (the loss was in Europe away to Napoli, which I can forgive with a 3rd season Rosenborg side) - you can kind of see where the tactical familiarity kicked in, around the time of the loss -
I think it will be used sparingly to provide context as to a nation's status at the time - like how the Swedish national team were great, but the league was not - I think for some leagues, context might be needed as to why there was such a difference between those two things Same with Hungary in the 1940s/50s/60s etc. - some people may just not know why they are so poor now compared to then, without the context of the national team successes and political situation in the country I'll defo be using my History degree for some of this

80's Style European Competitions FM24
Rob 396 replied to \'Appy \'Ammer's topic in Editors Hideaway Download Forum FM24
Crazy idea .. but wondered if it would be possible for an alternative file, where the UEFA Super Cup is a 3-way group between the winners of the 3x main European competitions? I know it's not accurate, but thought it might be a cool fantasy twist on it -

Haha, I remember the confusion of the Dutch File from a few editions ago .. Excellent work as always
