This file is intended for FM13.3, and will need to be re-applied if/when patches/updates are released to ensure full compatibility. This is due to the fact that some files which are removed when installing this file are re-installed when patches come out.

Magrippinho very helpfully created a YouTube video on how this file should be installed. Some of the contents are different - but the procedure is identical.

Or, you can follow the below instructions to install this file:

Step 1: Go to

PC
 Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ football manager 2013 \ data \ db \ 1300 
AND
 Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ football manager 2013 \ data \ db \ 1330 
MAC
USERNAME \ Library \ Application Support \ Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ Football Manager 2013 \ Data \ db \ 1300
AND
USERNAME \ Library \ Application Support \ Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ Football Manager 2013 \ Data \ db \ 1330
For Mac Lion users, the Library folder will be hidden. Use this link to find out how to show it.

Step 2: Delete the dbc, edt and lnc folders from the folder above

Step 3: Copy the dbc, edt and lnc folder from this download into the folder mentioned in step 1.

Step 4: Go to:

Documents \ Sports Interactive \ Football Manager 2013
Step 5: Open the folder named "editor data" contained therein. If it does not exist, then create it.

Step 6: Keeping the folder in step 5 open, go back to the file you downloaded and open the folder named "editor data files".

Step 7: Copy the 30 files in the folder from step 6 into the folder mentioned in step 5.



To check if the file is working, go to the Champions Cup and EURO Vase, and they should be renamed to Champions League and Europa League respectively. If you are in the middle of a save-game, German national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not instantly.

Hi Mons

Have been looking in here now and again since you said these files were going to be updated, I really appreciate all this work.

At the top of the page it says that the file was last updated on the 4th November - so is the file the new one and can it be downloaded.

No worries if it's not - I dn't mind waiting until it's ready.

I'm actually working on it right now The lnc files are ready and now it's just a case of fixing the media files and making some minor amendments, but with 27 files, it's quite time-consuming.

No idea why it says the files were updated today - I will amend the thread title when I upload the new files.

Yeah - thought you would be taking off the beta bit in the title - just got confused when it said it was updated on the 4th November - maybe it just says it updates when new messages are posted.

Cheers mons.

As explained repeatedly throughout the thread, if you apply these files in the middle of a save game, the German national team will be populated with real players the next time players are called up.

Crikey, you are observant! Hardly gave me time to amend the text of the OP and post this!

Yes - the files have been updated.

To enjoy the full benefits of the new contents of the file, please re-download it from the link above and follow the instructions given, even if you've downloaded them already.

Enjoy

Just to check Mons - the instructions say copy the 4 files from the editor folder - but now there's a lot more than 4 - I take it you just copy them all over now?

Also - to get these editor files working I take it you select the editor data files at the start screen?

Just wanting to check mate.

Excellent work, thanks a lot! Really helps getting the "right" feeling for this game..if they now could fix the background picture problems I'd be a happy camper.

Just one thing; Do the long names of Portuguese clubs show correctly in your games? The short names are altered as intented with the files, but the long names are automatically set to the same as the short ones. Seems to be "locked" somehow, as it can't be fixed with the editor either.

We have to activate all the 34 .dbc files you included inside the editor data folder when starting a game right? I guess you tested them with 13.1.1 and they're working fine right now.

Hello, very good work, and sorry for my english, but i have a problem. I download the file, and i install it correctly. So when i start a new game, no problem i have the good names of clubs and competitions. But when i quit the game and start it again later, i still have the good names of competitions but i haven't the good nicknames of clubs anymore.... For exemple : AC Milan becomes Milan, OM become Marseille....

Thanks for your answer

Maybe you could post a before and after screenshot. Where are the club nicknames displayed in the game?

I meant to amend the installation instructions to reflect the change in editor data files, but I forgot. Thanks for reminding me.

The answer to both your questions is yes

Anything you want fixed, give me the particular details.

Is Nik's Agents Pack still required? This wasn't in the new version

After the beta file was released, Nik33 contacted me to ask for the file to be exclusive to his download and I reluctantly removed it from the link after a couple of days. With the change in dbc file between FM12 and FM13, most of it doesn't work anyway, so you can safely remove it.

I believe this is a licensing issue exclusive to Portuguese teams, and there's nothing which can be done

Yes, there's some very minor issues but I'm overall very happy with the way media files are working now.

Bugger, I hadn't noticed this! I'll update the download link with the amended file.
