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.

I've included all the changes in both files, to the best of my knowledge and certainly intend to do so...

Is there a problem with the mirror download options for this? I have tried using both and get an error on rapidshare and the other option just goes to iLink and caused my laptop to freeze and need a system restore.

Any help would be appreciated; I always like to 'fix' my game with these changes before I start playing properly.

Rapidshare has, since a short while ago, restricted uploads by individual users to 1,000 total downloads a month and it seems like this has acceeded the limit for sortitoutsi.

Here's a sendspace link in the meantime.

As they're not competitions created in the default database, but rather created in each new game, I don't believe there's any way the real names can be incorporated in a file of this sort...

Thanks for your help with this. Sorry if I'm being stupid here, but when I try and click on the sendspace link, it brings up a whole range of downloads for different download managers but not this actual file. Do you know when Rapidshare will be reset it's monthly limit?

I've not modified any of the default SI files in the dbc folder. Users are, of course, free to amend or delete as they wish - but I'm sure SI included them for a good reason...

Use the search function on your PC/Mac. You can't play FM without having Steam...

Open the .lnc files in the .lnc folder and delete any lines you don't like...

Sorry if this was already answered, but I don't really want to go through 16 pages, so if someone can help me out that'd be great.

I thought that I initially downloaded this correctly but it seems like I haven't because even though the competition name fixes are working (like the Champions League, Europa League, etc.), the German and Japanese national teams are still filled with fake players.

I've attached a photo that shows the folder that I downloaded. As far as I can tell, it has Chinese club name fixes, Club Name Changes, media changes and Nik33's Nation & Club Nicknames pack.

I'm not sure if the German and Japanese national teams are included in one of those and for some reason aren't showing up in my game, but I have a feeling that they aren't included in any of those files and that somehow I didn't get the full package.

So my question is, did I download something incorrectly, and if so, is there a way to fix the German and Japanese national team databases without having to start a new save file?

MrMVP91, there's a number of things which could have affected this.

For a start the folder screenshot you put up indicates that you download the beta version of the file, as there are 34 editor data files in the latest version rather than 4. So download the latest version to get started. To ensure you install them correctly, watch Magrippinho's YouTube video, linked to in the installation instructions.

Secondly, the German and Japanese national teams are not affected by these files but by the same files which modify the competition names and are save-game compatible. Could you post a screenshot of the contents of the lnc folder? I suspect some files were re-created with one of the official patches, which negates this file's effects. Happily, if you re-apply this file, you should have these changes affecting your save game You will have to wait for the next national team call-up however, at which point you'll get the proper players in the respective national teams.

Let us know how you get on...

Definitely good to hear that when I fix this it should apply in my current save. However, I'm not exactly great with computers so I'm a bit stuck. You asked me to post a screenshot of the contents of the Inc folder, and I have no idea what that is. Could you please be a bit more specific?

And thanks for the help.

Follow the steps in Magrippinho's video first - seeing what you have to do is easier than reading a description.

You posted a screenshot of your editor data folder so I'm assuming you are aware of how to take a screenshot and upload it. You also said that the competition names were changed, so you have downloaded and installed the lnc folder from this file.

Mohd Hareez, I'm not on a Mac so I can't help you I'm afraid.

Sandeep Dhadwal - I'm not entirely sure how you've managed to do that Can you try re-downloading the file and extracting it with winrar? If you still can't sort it out, please post a screenshot of the file you've downloaded and any of its contents which you can see.

Hi Mons, thanks for your reply. When I download it, I get the options to save it or run it. I save it to the desktop but it does not save as a folder. It gives the option to open it via various different programmes such a paint, media, internet explorer, word etc. The first time I did it I took the word option and it keeps know saving as a code on a word document. There was no Winrar option available on the initial download. What is Winrar? Sorry to be a pain.

Google winrar and download it. Once you do, watch Magrippinho's video from the opening post which explains visually how to install the file.

Ok so I followed all the steps in the video. I subscribed to the German NT and the Japan NT just so I can see the players they call up. Germany just called up their squad for the U-20 World Cup and it consists of all fake players. This happened a few simulated days after I installed the files.

Is this normal? Does it usually take the teams longer than this to start recalling the real players? Or have I done something wrong again?

^ To give an update on my situation, I've simulated some more days and the Germany U-20 squad is now filled with real players. The senior squad, U-21 squad and U-19 squads are still filled with fakes, though I suspect that with some time those will change to the real players as well?

^ Another update and this one with some bad news. I think this database is causing my game to crash. I've made a thread about it on the SI forums and they told me that the problem is more than likely with this add-on. I explain the situation in that thread, which you can read here: http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php/337216-Runtime-Error-game-crashes
