The FM18 Adboard Patch - V1.4 Out Now

THe adboards work perfectly in the Premier League, Europa League etc. But I'm playing in the Dutch Eredivisie right now and there I don't have the proper adboards. Only black boards when I play in a stadium with digital adboards and generic Football Manager adboards (with the FM logo) in stadiums with normal adboards (non-LED). When I play in Europa League the adboards work fine.

My folder contains Eredivisie adboards but they don't seem to work. Anyone an idea?

For umpteenth time 🙈 video adboards only work for clubs/competitions marked with (video ads) on page 1. Due to a bug in the game FM18 does not load static ads into the video ads frames resulting in all other video ads appear as black and there is no fix for this

F.A.Q

Where should I install the files too?

XML files


Graphics


I have trouble with the file

Videos


Preferences


Why are there two different xml files?

As the folder names suggest one xml file contains club specific ad-boards and one doesn’t. This has been done as in previous patches people have complained that they see clubs specific ad-boards in cup competitions. Due the way the xml file there is no way around this using code. The only solution would be the use of two files.

For example say you are Arsenal and want Arsenal specific ad-boards in the Premiership and the Champions league ad-boards in the Champions League you would follow these steps;

1. Load up FM with the Club Specific config file in use
2. Play your league game (Arsenal ads will show)
3. Before your Champions League game Save and quit FM17
4. Replace the club specific config file with the non club config file.
5. Re-start FM17
6. Play your Champions League match (Champions League ads will show).

Why are my video adboards are black?
This issue here is down to what I believe is a bug in the game. In FM17 when clubs had no video adboards assigned to them they loaded static adboards into the video adboards slots instead, for some reason FM18 is not doing this and just displays dead video adboards, the below image shows the difference between FM17 & FM18

Iv'e lost jersery names and numbers in the 3D engine?
This is down to a bug and hopefully SI will resolve this soon.
