  1. Really impressed with FM24 and now I have a decent computer, its great to have the graphics on maximum - however it just isn't the same unless I go 2D lol

    But the pitch markings are not white as you would expect at a football game. It appears to me that the shading thats in the 3D is also in 2D and it's affecting this. is there any way to make them white rather than a 'warm white' i.e. yellowish

  2. What follows are my thoughts as I sometimes feel there can be a little negativity at times, some I've contributed to it too. I've been playing this game since the CM1 days, yep, when it took 2-3 hours to process a new season on the Amiga. The Clive Tydsley commentary on my first Intel PC, the subsequent update CM9798 where you could play with 3 leagues - right upto now.

    As soon as I had kids the game became too much, so FM13 I loved due to the classic mode. Favourite was FM18 But then I tried FM19 classic (or maybe FM20) and it didn't seem as 'big' as FM18. I didn't feel part of the game world so therefore full fat was the way to go. But it just seemed bloated and on the PC I had at the time, the graphics were gash.

    But now for FM24, I've purchased a brand new PC, I can play it on maximum settings and oh my days, this game is amazing. The graphics for the match day are superb! The little intricacies of the interface are very cool. Love how SI have addressed players getting upset where you can hold a team meeting to get them back on board. Kinda hand holding your way through this tricky process.

    Love how huge the game is, love the news stories, the social media stories. 

    True, a lot of it could be simplified and I look forward to FM25 where all the information is still there but it's easier to get into for newer players.

    But for me, all this talk about the graphics engine on it's last legs - and perhaps it is - but for someone's who's been plodding on FM18 for too long, FM24 is an amazing game. Love the graphics, love the filters during the game, love the world tue game makes you feel part of. Thank you SI

    Are these parts of the update not saved game compatible?

  4. Will it have a detrimental affect on their morale? Doing well with Rangers then suddenly some numpty moans about wanting to play. I disagree and reduce his playing time and it all kicks off. tbh, it's stopped me from playing the game cause i find all this stuff tiresome - i run an Under 11's footy team so play FM to get away from the all the BS you have to put up with in real life.

     

     

  5. i.e. If I select Serie B and above for Italy and apply 'Playable/View Only below' - does it mean I can manage a team in Serie B and above but it's view only from C downwards?

     

    Looking at this link (https://www.footballmanagerblog.org/2022/10/best-way-to-set-up-football-manager-2023-save-fm23.html) too it says to add players from all continents at the beginning. tbh is this worth it though as all it will do is increase the initial player pool, but I'm more looking to adding the necessary leagues to ensure regens come through - whilst at the same time, ensuring it runs decent

  6. Yes it's that old chestnut again, I'm essentially looking to create an environment that will be good for long term saves whilst at the same time, not bringing my machine to a grinding halt. Processor is AMD Ryzen 5 78000 with 16GB Memory. So not a bad spec.

     

    I've selected leagues from 16 different countries, although in many instances I've only selected the top league - done this in all of them apart from the English league. Using Large Database my player count is 79,140. Does that sound decent? The issue though is it says this spec is 2 out of 5 stars which worries me how slow it will run.

    So I'm thinking, perhaps I can set some to view only. But I see 'Playable-View Only' - what exactly is the difference between all 3?

     

    Also, is the star system to be believed in this FM? I saw a video from Zealand where he was setting up an environment that equated to 2 and a half stars. Is FM24 harsh when dealing with info like this and perhaps 2 stars is nothing to worry about?
