The only changed is to get 50 % points from 1st stage on relegation stage I'm changing this in 1 and 2 youth division in Portugal. I think i've managed to set real relagation on 1 division, but dont match on 2 division (appears error on number of promotion, appears 0) I've update the files, 1st is my update with portuguese name and real structure 2nd is a sample of the problem without my full structure _FMPT Distritais V1.16_.fmf Actualizações Liga & Dados.fmf

Dear Design Team, I want to start a game with my local team, Bognor Regis Town but I cannot as they are in a league outside what you can control. I have cheated to get them promoted and then taken control as manager but I am struggling to sign player to a) stay up and b) help get promoted. Please is there any way you can make it that some players take a rise and sign for a club which they wouldn't normally and also be able to start a play with a team that isn't normally accessable? Kind regards Luke

So my long term road to glory save will be with edinburgh city, the "3rd team" in Edinburgh, my first aims are to get to the premiership, then win the scottish cup, then overtake hearts and hibs, then the big two, and become one of the worlds best, I will be providing updates here for my journey, cmon the city!

Since my bug report threat in Pre-editor with reported never give any result i will start a threat here for all updaters that really know. Still waiting for answers from SI. Many thanks to @Slabbekoorn for all assist in PM's. My biggest problem is that 2 and 3 youth regional divisions doesn't appear ingame, the Standard division are all right (1 and 2 national / 1 regional division). On editor everything verifies, on game everything works except that 2 and 3 youth regional division are inactive, even if i didn't set inactive.... Some minor errors are that u18 teams simply vanish and 2 national division lost the age limit, nothing serious to play. If you have any ideas let me know please _teste juniores V10.fmf

After a few months of work and testing, I am finally able to release this file for download. For anyone unfamiliar with the structure of Irish football, it goes as follows: 1. Levels 1 - 2: League of Ireland (Senior) 2. Levels 3 - 6: Provincial leagues (Intermediate) 3. Levels 7 - 12: County leagues (Junior) Senior, intermediate and junior does not refer to the age of the players in the leagues, it refers to the status of the leagues. The levels are not connected, promotion and relegation only occurs within the "steps" of the structure e.g. a team can be promoted and relegated within the various Cork AUL divisions, but can't be promoted to the Munster Senior League, similarly, a team from the MSL can only be promoted and relegated within the MSL, and can't move to the Cork AUL or the LOI. I've recreated the structure as closely as possible; 1. All leagues are set up correctly in terms of teams and regional boundaries, with clubs staying in their appropriate league 2. The season (not competitions) runs from the 1st of February to the 30th of November, with the season update day being the 1st of January 3. The main domestic cups are also set up correctly (for the FAI Cup, the first season will only use LOI sides - this is normal, I have the rules set up to take the teams which reach the last 16 of the FAI Intermediate Cup and the teams which reach the semi finals of the FAI Junior Cup, so the second season on will run as normal). 4. The LOI sides also have the LOI U-19 National League set up, with the sides running as normal U-19 sides, and not as a "reserve" side which can be manually set. 5. All player statistics and achievements and league and club histories have been updated as much as possible. 6. LOI squads have been updated up to and including 11/01/2018, Some notes on the file: 1. I've boosted Ireland's youth rating to 95; this means that Ireland should have a squad of similar strength to the likes of Croatia after a few seasons when newgens begin to reach their peak. 2. Some leagues in real life are not represented in the file; this is due to a lack of information, over-representation in a particular county or a combination of the two. 3. Following on from above, the leagues that are present in game may not have their full structure represented; this is due to some teams having little to no available information, and my decision to not include B teams (Derry City's, Finn Harps', and UCD's B teams were already present in the default file), 4. If you have the sortitoutsi Real Name Fix, you can deselect the "merged media files" option as I merged that file with my own file to make it easier when adding in new media sources 5. I don't have Claasen's megapack downloaded (or any other similar file), so unfortunately I can't say for sure if this file will be compatible with such files, but personally, I can't see this file causing too many issues (obviously, if you wish to start a new game using this file and Ireland already has nation rules set up in another file, simply deselect that file and you're good to go) 6. I strongly recommend starting a game using this file in 2018 as this file is tailored for the 2018 season on; to do this, choose a country that also has a "summer season" e.g. Belarus when starting a new game, choose your preferred start date, and then remove that nation (if you want, of course) as soon as the game starts. Alternatively, sortitoutsi have a file that allows you to choose any date to start a new game in (I'm using this method) If anyone spots any issues, please let me know and I'll try and fix them if possible, and I'll re-upload the file. Enjoy! http://www.mediafire.com/file/sh48tw679s2tn2x/Ireland+to+Level+12.fmf Note: I've updated (12/1/2018) the download link as there was a slight issue regarding contracts which has now been fixed

I have 2 players in Hampton & Richmond who have been in England for 1738 and 1748 days. They just miss 77 and 87 days before they can be english citizen and be able to play for my club. But after several month in my club the still have 77 and 87 days left. Why? 1.player from Finland (American as second nationality) 2.player from Morocco (Belgium as second nationality)

Ok truth be told I have no idea how this is going to pan out but here we go. The idea and premise is simple. Win a game steal a player. Lose a game lose a player. Every game I play will have 3 outcomes... Win and I can steal a player from the team I've just beaten. Lose and they get a player from me. Draw and nothing happens, everybody just moves on like nothing happened. All players from the club will be listed alphabetical and I will use a random number generator to select which player will move. Using the in-game editor I will then move the player to the club changing nothing else, so the wages will stay the same as well as the contract. Basically it means that if I beat Chelsea I could end up with Eden Hazard, or some random unprofessional regen. I have no challenges whatsoever other than to enjoy and just see what happens. The biggest problem here will be wage budget. Obviously as I get more and more players my wage budget will get higher and higher. Transfer windows are going to be very interesting. I can't purchase any player although if need be I can get free agents but that's only as a last resort ie I've lost 20 games in a row and no longer have players! If anybody has anything they would like to add I would love to hear it and see if this save can evolve with as many user inputs as possible! So enough about the boring rules. I will be starting this save with Parkgate FC. Reason why is because I live a stones throw away from the ground. Predicted to finish 14th in the Northern Counties First Divison (In real life at the moment they are 2nd bottom only ahead of Clipstone (the village I'm originally from!)). It will be up to new manager Smoochie Boochies to try and take Parkgate FC to the very top. No badges no experience. Don't know why but he's from the Island of Kiribati with English as his second nationality. Coming up will be the Squads and Friendlies. I won't be taking charge of the friendlies but I will be arranging them...I have a cunning plan.

Ok currently, I am making a massive save with Australian clubs, all the way down to Amateur ranks. All NPL leagues, with Promotion Relegation etc working, and in QLD, NSW and Victoria it goes at least 4 tiers down. But im having trouble financially with all the clubs. In Australia, to play amateur football, you pay a ridiculous amount to join a club, and no matter what your in. Can we please have this as an option in FM? A pay-to-play contract? This would greatly help me out and help others making lower league DBs

I came up with my own idea of a challenge, where I'm only allowed to sign players from one city. As this might be very challenging in top leagues I will start in the lowest possible level of Polish pyramid - B-klasa, which is 8th tier league (playable thanks to Polish Leagues Update, adding most of the leagues in Poland). I will take over one of the Warsaw based teams, which will allow me to have a huge base of Warsaw born players to choose from. Warsaw is a capitol of Poland and have plenty of teams in the whole structure, espeacially in the lowest leagues. Without further ado, let's meet the team: Jedność Warszawa (which can be translated as Warsaw Unity or Warsaw United). Jedność is a team founded in late 2014. Season 2016/17 is the first competetive season for the team and that's where my career will begin. Obviously, we have no real players in the team (so does the other teams playing lower than III Liga, which is a 4th tier), so my bunch of genarated players isn't the best at the beginning. We need to improve on many positions. Goals for the challenge: 1) Win the Mazovian Cup, a regional competition with participating teams from levels 5-8. 2) Beat every Warsaw based team in the game at least once (there is 26 teams to beat). 3) Get to the top division - Ekstraklasa. The only loaded nation is Poland.

I want to start a save in the Regionalliga, but I've struggling to find I way to create a database with lower leagues. I used the FM 2016 editor as base test. I can do certain aspects, but when it comes to put the play-offs promotions and relegations, I get stuck. So I wonder if there's gonna be anyone is gonna unlock the German Lower leagues? Thanks.

Hello everybody, I do not know if I am posting this in the correct place - let me know if I am not. I have started a FM17 game with Wrexham and need tips and advice. I wanted to take charge of a North Wales Club and had thought of creating my own club on Anglesey as there are none of note in a high league. However I decided, for now, to keep it authentic (I may make an Anglesey Club in the future). I was looking at Bangor City but from FM16 I learned that the Welsh league is fine as a challenge to make a Welsh League Club actually strong enough to qualify for the Champions League group stages, but is really difficult. The league itself is a challenge but you start craving more. AND SO I went for Wrexham, a North Wales Club with a lot of history and rivalries and also in the English league system. The long term goal is obvious - get to the Premiership! This post is to ask for help and tips/hints on progressing to that goal. I have just finished my first season and managed to get to the English FA Trophy Cup for the league and also WON the Vanarama National on the last day of the season after 1) an incredible run of 23 games unbeaten (many last minute goals to earn draws, and a total of 30 games unbeaten with the Cup games), and .... 2) a catastrophic collapse by Lincoln in the last three months of the season. Before that run I was just inside the playoff places. I have bought players in and later thought they were not as good as I thought, and everything is rosy except for my handling of Club finances with has the board confidence in that at 36% approximately. The club is making losses because of the spending on players and in an attempt to address this I sold the clause I had for Swansea's Neil Taylor. We had a 10% sell on fee but with his value at £7.4million and with Wrexham needing money I sold the clause to receive approximately £650,000. SO, now I am in pre season before the Sky Bet League 2 starts, and I need advice on which tactics to use to get into promotion places, how to handle my finances, where to find players of quality to help me gain promotion and any other help you can think of. Much appreciated - thanks guys!

Hello, is the prize money or money from TV games dynamic on FM 17? If yes can this change dramatically e.g. a 3 stars league with 500 k awarded to the winner can with 5 stars award 10 m ? Thanks
