Why your database is showing as 23.4.0 Update? That is Football Manager 2023 version number. This forum post is for lower league database for Football Manager 2022. This is the reason you are seeing this error. I think you have FM2023. For that, please use the database from here -

Ok, that's unfortunate.

This one works fine though. I am using it.

Are you sure you are using these files in Football Manager 2022? It won't work with other version. Also, there is a chance any another update file for England is already present, you can add only one edited data per country.

Great point. My reasons are exactly your opposite. That's why I cannot say I will buy FM23. My eternal love for FM has faded a lot, it's burning but with low intensity. I was lucky to get hold of PS5 within first 4 months of release. I have gathered an handful of 50 PS4/PS5 games in library and playing those in big 4K tv takes precedence than FM. So I cannot justify spending $50+ for a game which I might play few days a month.

Wrong. I haven't bought after FM17. Just didn't feel it. But I still visit the forums specially the stories forum to get read some of the exciting stories. I now have FM22 (thanks to Amazon prime) and hopefully Amazon will give the 2023 version free of cost for us, so not going to buy FM23 immediately.

I know I am late to this topic, but I hope this post will help someone. I had to stop playing FM after FM17 due to multiple reasons (life, work, kids etc.) but I am getting back to FM again this year, and thanks to Amazon, I got free FM22 and trying to go through the vast changes happened over last 5+ years. I thought why not run a quick benchmark to see where do I stand and prepare for FM23. I only ran benchmark once per type, ideally I prefer average of 3 separate runs but I felt it was tedious and the game is old, so nobody will bother. Type: Desktop Model: Mac Studio (2022) (Base model) CPU Model: M1 Max (8Perf/2Effi cores) CPU Base Frequency: - CPU Turbo Frequency: - RAM: 32GB RAM Clockspeed: LPDDR5 GPU: M1 Max 24 Core Apple Graphics Level in 3D: High Storage Type: SSD Benchmark A: 58 Sec Benchmark B: 05 min 8 Sec

It is non-issue for most of the M1 Mac users. The new M1 MacBooks has ARM processor, so they only able to run an ARM based applications and FM is still x86 application. When Apple introduced new ARM Macs, they also introduced Rosetta2 emulation layer which allows intel/AMD version applications to run on ARM processor until developers update their applications to ARM version. The is invisible to end-user. That's why you never noticed the difference. I am little disappointed that FM didn't update their Mac application version to Universal (supports both Intel + ARM) this year. Perhaps FM24 will have ARM native version. This is the only application in my Mac setup that needs Rosetta 2.

I know right? Looks like FM is the only Rosetta2 application that I'll still use.

No, you have to use Rosetta for M1 Macs. It is confirmed in Steam discussion forum.

Same here. I used to have few non-M1 applications in my OG M1macbook pro. But I just bought a new Mac Studio last week. I have promised myself no more non-M1 applications in my Mac studio. As a software developer, my whole toolchain has M1 native version. FM is the only Intel executable in My ARM life. I will wait on the information.
