All NHL / NBA / NFL / MLB Franchises added to the US.
Credit for the NFL/MLB teams goes to dim13 on the SI website.

ok, here we go, lets see if i miss anything (first ever db).

Setting up a GAME
1) Make sure you tick - 'add players to playable teams'
2) Make sure you un-tick - 'Do not add Key Staff'
3) Using the advanced rules to add all Canadian and US players is advised

Nation Info
Season dates - Are inline with the English League. (10th Aug - 15th May)
Season End Date - 1st June
Youth Intake is usually just after.
Season rules - as per England - No draft, No Designated player etc.
Canadian Players are no longer classed as Foreign.
USA has been slightly boosted in youth rating/nation terms to match England.

Team Info
All Main created teams should have the correct -

Name
City
Stadium
Nickname
Rivals

All reps for created teams were improvised for the most part but dynasty franchises, Celtics, Patriots, Yankees, Oilers etc tend to be at the higher end of the scale (I have little knowledge of these sports so used various site Power Rankings for the most part).

All PDL teams have the same rep / cash starting point.

Division Layout - Main Leagues - 5 Levels
Premier - 20 teams - 4 relegated
Major League - 44 teams - 2 Groups of 22 - 2 promoted / 4 relegated (per group)

Minor League - 48 teams - 2 sub divisions of 24 - 2 promoted / 4 relegated (per group)
AAA League - 64 teams - 4 sub divisions of 16 - 1 promoted (per group)

Each team has a Main Squad / Reserves & U21 Squad.
Each team has a feeder team in the PDL League

PDL Divisions - Feeder Teams - 5 Tiers
Premier - 20 teams - 4 relegated
Championship - 2 Divisions - 2 promoted / 4 relegated (per group)
Tier 1 - 64 teams - 4 Groups of 16 - 2 promoted / 2 relegated (per group)
Tier 2 - 64 teams - 4 Groups of 16 - 2 promoted / 2 relegated (per group)
Tier 3 - 64 teams - 4 Groups of 16 - 2 promoted (per group)

Cups

Stanley Cup - NHL Teams only - Groups into Knockout style cup
World Series - MLB Teams only - Groups into Knockout style cup
Nike Air Cup - MLB Teams only - Groups into Knockout style cup

Casadia Cup - All 256 Main division teams in a League Cup.
Atlantic Cup - All 512 Main Divisions and PDL teams in an FA Cup. Main teams are fed into the draw at later stages.
American Liberty Cup - All 256 PDL teams in League Cup

Division Rules - Main Divisions
Will take suggestions on these once a few long term players confirm if they need adjustment or not.
See attached screenshot for breakdown

Money - TV/Prize/Parachute etc
Will take suggestions on these once a few long term players confirm if they need adjustment or not.
At the min, the domestic treble will net you £50,000,000

I was looking for an extended Canada file for use with my database and have been using this at the min with great success. Not sure on the accuracy as i'm not familiar with the league layout but its great for generating new talent for the US leagues.

Does not work for me, tried it out and it always says there is an error. Might be because of the fact that when i have to choose the database file ingame, the 001_All_American-File is not declared as a file for USA. Do I have to select another USA database-file with your all american file together? all other files i downloaded and installed so far for the fm worked just fine, but that one i do not get to work. Thx for your help in advance!

No, ignore that. Works fine or everyone else what error message do you get and what files are you using with it?

I use the real name fix from mons and the league mega pack from sangue blu. Those are the most important I guess, the others are skins, logos or kits. I really hope you can help me, because I would love to play with your file!

It'll prob be one of the mega packs from sangue blue, i've used the real name fix with no errors. One of his North American files is prob causing a clash.

It says, a serious error encountered and the application will be closed. I will try to remove all his north amercian files. Hopefully that will fix the problem.

I tried it by removing all other north american files, but that was not the problem.

It'll be a clash with your files then, not mine. I've used this with real names fix, Pr0s, Nik33s database updates and correct lower leagues (eng/scot/oz etc),

Sangue Blues fantasy leagues have probably edited a comp somewhere that buggers it up. sorry dude.

No idea then dude, you're the first person thats had an issue. Id suggest clearing cache and prereferences and jsut trying to boot those 2 files from 16.3.

Its a lot of work, if you really wanna play this, but i can recommend Uncle Sams USA files as well if these are a pain to get going for you. sorry bud

Hey, I'm really enjoying the 2017 build of this database. However, I'm having a pretty big problem--I'm not getting the full TV money in MLS. Instead of however many millions, it says $999,999 in TV rights. I've checked the lower leagues, and they all appear to get theirs. In addition, teams promoted from NASL to MLS get the TV money that's supposed to be awarded at the start of the season to all MLS teams. I just realized that I've only tested this out with Seattle, so I don't know for sure if that's the only (or one of the few) teams not receiving the money or not. I've run simulations for years and keep running into the same problem. I've made some minor changes to your database (e.g. bigger transfer funds for the MLS clubs in the first season, more money for U.S. Open Cup, etc.) but even when I tested the original I still had this problem. I'm curious if you ran into this issue as well? Thanks.

I think I may have figured it out. I went through and tested with a number of other teams. The only ones I had issues with were the Sounders and Galaxy. As it turns out, those are also the ones with local TV deals. I took those out, and the problem went away. I haven't simulated too far into the future yet to make sure, but I'm hopeful that resolves it. But I haven't tested/checked if any lower level teams have local deals either.
