[wally13]

Takes about 12 seconds on my i7-960

Can't afford the upgrade to an Intel at the minute Use AMD currently, was tempted to go for the new hex-core they bought out a few months ago but an i7 wipes the floor with it.

Im currently trying to decide between an i5 2400 with 4gb Ram, or a Phenom II X6 1090T with 4gb Ram. Both the same price. What do you guys think?

i5 are more then good enough i just went over kill and spent £1200 as i dont plan on upgrading in quite a while

Yeh both are more than good enough for a decent game of FM. Ive just got to keep the Mrs in mind for Sims 3 aswell

[BCFC_Mike]

Anyone know QPR's transfer budget?

[Le Tissier's Nose]

One tiny bug-ish problem, I'm West Ham manager and when trying to loan Josh McEachran from Chelsea they refuse because they "Don't want to sell to a divisional rival"

But obviously we're not divisional rivals anymore..... annoying

[ClingingMars]

Just wanted to add my thanks, played a bit with one of your db updates mid transfer window and lost my HD due to computer problems, but now I get to use the latest version! cheers

[CrazyEastboy1]

Great work MG, truly appreciate your effort. Looked at both yours and Wally's and I like this because there has been no changes to the CA/PA, which are very subjective of course, and a little biased as well in case of Man U in Wally's, (just saying).

Keep it up

[yaoxinlv6]

Camacho became China's Manager.

[Goose54]

Whats up with Roma having no new suger daddy chairman?

Not biased at all. Just informed decisions that quite a few people have agreed on, MG included. Infact quite a few players have had a decrease, or a set PA at a reasonable level rather than them having a minus PA and having the chance of getting a ridiculously high PA (just saying)

Bugs Forum for that one

Doubt it 'cause it's your update that's put West Ham in the Championship - there must be some hardcode somewhere that says they're still a Prem team when approaching someone on loan.

Can't go posting in the Bugs forum about a bug I've had since using a homemade editor!

[MasterFolke]

It's all correct in editor it seems, but still it is Inter vs Roma in Italian Super Cup. Whats up with that?

[metal_guitarist]

Must have missed that one MasterFolke

Like I said, its subjective and I feel its not what I would do

[soterakis]

Thank you MG!

[aiston]

Huge problem for me when using this update. Look at the UEFA Cup dates.

There was also no UEFA Cup at all in the first season of my game.

Champions League is fine though.

[metal_guitarist]

Are you using the latest version? That problem was fixed in the final release.

[aiston]

Are you using the latest version? That problem was fixed in the final release.

Version 11.3, downloaded it on Friday.

I like the update a lot though, well done and thanks for it!

[metal_guitarist]

The last release was Saturday night so it was fixed then, the one before was a beta release. Glad it you like it otherwise

Ah damn my timing. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

[Mooki3]

So Daniel Agger has a permanently 'damaged spine' with a severity of 17?

To be fair, I like what you've done this year, editing as little as possible and keeping the game as pure as possible... But, it's this kind of thing, that you can't possibly know about (no-one outside of Melwood can to be fair) that should be left to the game to decide.

[CrazyEastboy1]

Couple of changes on LFC,

Damien Comolli should be Director of Football, not a scout

Ian Ayre is the Managing Director

[metal_guitarist]

@Mooki3- eh? That wasn't my edit, that was in the 11.3 file.

@CrazyEastboy1- again, that's 11.3, not my edit.

There is no Director of Football post in FM so all FM researchers will named DOF as scouts instead.

[metal_guitarist]

Well it is there but it's cosmetic and doesn't actually do anything

[Suggy33]

When I try and run your's and Wally's update together (to get the new youth players), and I come to selecting nations, Holland, Italy, Spain and Germany are blanked out. Any ideas why?

If it's a proper issue, I'll just run yours.

[Mooki3]

@Mooki3- eh? That wasn't my edit, that was in the 11.3 file.

@CrazyEastboy1- again, that's 11.3, not my edit.

Oh, fair one then pal, my apologies.

[iluvfooty]

Probably related to promotions/relegations etc I'd imagine.

Oh, fair one then pal, my apologies.

No problem

Thanks...

What is the message on the crash dump? Usual steps to take would be to redownload the update and clear your cache but I see you've done that already. I assume you're on patch 11.3? Could try a new re-install of FM.

[iluvfooty]

I never had a problem with metals before

[metal_guitarist]

Can you upload the saved game onto Mediafire or Gamefront etc where it's crashing? I'll download it and take a look for you.

[metal_guitarist]

Also, are you using any other files alongside my one, and you're not accidentally running a previous version of my update at the same time are you?

[iluvfooty]

no i start a new game all the time and it crashes just one day after on the 7th July no over previous version just your new one, for some reason though metal, wallys works dont no why.

[Suggy33]

I managed to merge the databases, and now they work as one file.

[metal_guitarist]

As I said, start a new game, save it and then upload it. Post the link here and I'll check it.

Good to hear

[iluvfooty]

ill try reinstalling it again pal because it crashed on wallys after a few days, thanks for ur help metal

[metal_guitarist]

Ok, let me know how you get on.

[thebigfella]

I managed to merge the databases, and now they work as one file.

Did this duplicate any players also did this give u wallys ca/pa edits??

[Suggy33]

Yes, it duplicated players, I thought I deleted them, then I started a new save again and they were still there, so I gave up.

Yes, Wally's CA/PA changes were in.

[BCFC_Mike]

It's probably just typical unlucky me, but I have had a number of injuries in pre season since using this update.. I'm guessing thats nothing to do with the update though?

[CrazyEastboy1]

@CrazyEastboy1- again, that's 11.3, not my edit.

know its 11.3, but hoping you would add that, if u got a new update out,

[WKTHFC]

Great update MG but I'm reluctant to play because of the false player values. It seems all players transferred this summer have had their values reset to their previous transfer. For example, Gael Clichy is only worth £250,000. What Arsenal paid for him. Owen Hargreaves is like 18m. Not realistic at all.

[metal_guitarist]

The game decides that, not me unfortunately!

[WKTHFC]

Well I cant see the game valuing Gael Clicy at 250,000! Their values correspond to their history page and their past transfers.

[metal_guitarist]

Well it's a 2 minute fix if you want to do it yourself.

[WKTHFC]

Don't fancy doing it for every player but thanks for the update.
