dafuge Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 From the 'READ ME FIRST' thread: How to Post a Screenshot While in FM, press Alt and F9 A picture will be saved to a screenshots folder, in the FM10 folder in your documents Upload the image to an image hosting website such as Photobucket Post the direct Url to the image here. How to Add Links At the top of the forum, go to 'quick links' then 'edit options'. At the bottom, select 'enhanced interface' and save the changes. This will give you access to the extra posting tools that make it easier to post links. Once you've done this, highlight the word you wish to turn into a link, then use the link button (looks like a little globe) to paste in the direct Url to your screenshot.

UELLfan Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 ALT+F9 has been the best improvement from FM08 onwards in my opinion. So much easier to gather those screenshots needed to keep trail of your developing youngsters or to update on your progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Question for people who have gotten a new stadium built and played a fair few seasons.Have you been able to expand this new stadium to more than twice its original size? Here's something I did not want to see It seems that my new 65779 capacity Dafuge Arena cannot be expanded, looks like I may have to wait another 20 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichG Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 if only you could get the extra 221 seats for 66,000 they may build a new £300m stadium and bankrupt you so its not all bad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dankrzyz Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I'm considering doing a French career game, loading L1 through CFA and working my way up from the bottom. I do have a couple of questions: 1.) One thing that I've never seen a full & firm answer to is African player eligibility for French leagues. In some/many/few cases, African national do not count toward the "non-EU maximum" that the French leagues have. Is that former French colonies only? All African countries? Are there any other nations with a similar agreement? I would like to be sure to load some of those players into the active database for this new save, but don't want to add many if they're part of the limited non-EU rule. It would be helpful to know a player's eligibility before you sign him. After you sign him, of course you can see the FGN status or not, but it's too late! 2.) I've read that the CFA is not playable from the begining, but that some teams do become eligible to manage. How does this work? 3.) Are all Ligue 2 teams professional? How about Championat Nacional? I assume CFA is all amateur or reserve teams, right? 4.) Any other suggestions about setting up the player database / game as I'm planning? Other French hints or tips? Thanks!

RichG Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Not sure about point 1 but 2) Check the editors section and see if anyone has done a full french update for lower leagues. May be there if you look 3) See above 4) Load max players to get good lower league realism or at least large French league is cool. I had a St Etienne game years ago. One of the best games i did. I just raided the U19 and 21 sides every year for the best youth tallent. French league always has good regens Try this thread http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=178624&highlight=french+league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidmonkey Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 1) from what i understand its only the french Colonies who dont count as non-EU players so thats: French Guiana · Guadeloupe · Mayotte · Martinique · New Caledonia · Réunion · Saint-Martin it "may" include former french colonies but not too sure which would be Algeria but not sure on that 2) CFA teams are only manageable if they are relegated from the National 3) Ligue 1 & 2 are seen as the professional leagues so national and CFA seem to be Semi-pro im guessing. 4) Load all players from France and all the French colonies, will help no end after that its upto you Good Luck in France Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 I write my updates for myself and to hopefully inspire other people to start similar games or at least give them an interesting career to read.

ToMexico!! Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Similarly it could be said about my career AcidBurn. I prefer being those smaller clubs and building up but my save is a career save, staying with small clubs wouldn't be much of a career progression would it. Thats why I'm trying to stick with mid-tabled sides at the moment, then in 5 seasons maybe move to a 'large' club, the likes of River/Boca/Chelsea/Arsenal...then after making them dominant, move onto a smaller mid tabled club and start over, or take a fallen giant, maybe a former premiership club from league two back to where they belong. How ever your career pans out, it shoudn't really matter to anyone else as long its what you want from your game. Your updates are great and long may it continue.

I tend to ignore the ones where somebody starts at a big club. If somebody is managing a Real Madrid or Manchester United because they've earned the right, I'm interested in it.
