dafuge Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 Should there not be staff if you use the retain file? It might just mean that the researcher has not assigned any staff. Seems a bit odd though, I'm sure there were real staff at that level last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsum Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Managed to beat my parent club Norwich 1-0 in a pre-season friendly. 19 year-old Craig Rodger got the goal, his fourth in 3 friendlies. Hopefully we can maintain that form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano_NUFC Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 ok, someone tell me what im doing wrong; 1) i download the ddt file and save it to the folder(vista) 2) i then load up the game and check preferences 3) it isnt there =S just the team_holland folder Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annihilator666 Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 No, you need to use the ddt file. Loading all the players from England gives you a much bigger database I think. Dafuge, just to let you know, I added all players based in England, and that seemed to do the job of loading the real players to the challenge teams.

Steboyuk Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Holidaying as we speak, just noticed that Nuneaton have a rep of 1700?! Thats a big big gap in reputation for them, Im assuming they are coming up in almost every save game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted October 30, 2009 Author Share Posted October 30, 2009 Dafuge, just to let you know, I added all players based in England, and that seemed to do the job of loading the real players to the challenge teams. That gives you a database with about 4000 extra players compared to the setup described in the rules, that is why we use that file. Just out of interest, with your setup did the eligible teams have real staff? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bermybhoy Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Well, loathe as I was to quit my FM09 Oxford City stage having only got as far as the Championship - the temptation was too much and I got FM10. Have to say after just poking about for a couple of hours, it looks great. So much neater and more inuitive, hopefully the gameplay matches up.

Cool, I only moved into town a couple of months back. Been to a few games this season and Lynn have been playing well.

Smithers Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 To save me from wasting even more time, is it even possible for a club of reputation 1000 to get promoted? In about a hundred times of reloading trying to get Oxford City, only one club has been promoted with a reputation lower than 1100, and that was Horsham. If not, I guess I'll just have to settle for Carshalton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. It doesn't happen often, but it happens. I've not seen anyone lower than 1000, though. I had Oxford City come up a couple of times while I was trying to get smaller teams to come up, but I didn't save it, sadly. Keep trying, it'll happen.
