This file will need to be re-applied if/when official 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 automatically re-installed by Steam when official patches come out.
Some of these changes, ESPECIALLY THE CLUB NAMES, may not apply in the Beta, FM Touch or in existing save-games. There's a workaround for that in the first post.
The sortitoutsi real names fix changes the instances of fake names in Football Manager 2018 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed. It will also fix the fact that the German and Japanese National teams don't call up real players. The latter are fully save-game compatible.
There is also a club name changes file, which changes the names of clubs in a way which ensures that any nicknames entered in the default database are retained. This file includes the proper names for German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French clubs to circumvent licensing restrictions. Due to licensing reasons, the number of Ajax non-playing staff is quite small and this file contains a fix to restore them. It also adds real-life media and journalists, encompassing most major footballing nations and continents. Finally, it includes a small file which corrects the 3-Letter competition names to correspond with any changes made in the lnc files. For all the files in this paragraph to work, however, you will need to start a new game.

COPY the dbc, edt and Inc folders from the downloaded pack
STEP 3:
PASTE them into each of your respective folders mentioned in step 1.

If you had already used previous versions of this download, you will need to delete the files named:
Susie Real Name Fixes - Abdelhak Nouri removed_6B282152-37E5-4FFE-9159-07277A5FD537.fmf
and
Susie Real Name Fixes - Ajax staff FM18_51792081-6A2F-4EF3-8781-F6D8D9E2A331.fmf
from within the editor data folder as they are no longer needed. Retaining them will see a duplicate complement for Ajax staff members.
To make sure the files have been applied correctly, go to the Champions Cup and EURO Vase in your saved game, 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. The Japanese national team will be populated along the same lines too, but any Japan-based players are not in the official database and need a third-party add-on to be created and added.
Club names are only changed if you apply the editor data files before starting a new game. For a workaround if you've already started a new save-game, then please read the opening post of this thread.

There have been only a small number of changes to the file since the last release. Hardly worth releasing a new one. If you want, PM me for the updated files
coach.ita
Ok,Thanks mons

Never had this issue before
What exactly do you mean by post-match reports?
marcorigobelli
The analysis we receive just after a game with passing map, important stats, etc. I already checked my scouting and data analysis configurations and it's everything okay there. When I uninstal the fix, they come back.
mons
That's bizarre. This file does nothing to edit something like this and I wouldn't know if it is even possible to do so. Can I have screenshots of where you installed the files from this download please?
Jorgen
Cruyff with an Y is the international version of the name, but in all official places, only Cruijff with IJ is correct

Keuken Kampioen Divisie

If I had Keuken Kampioen Divisie as the long name, and Eerste divisie as the short name, would I be correct?
Changed the Ajax stadium name as well
Qvordrup
"COMP_LONG_NAME_CHANGE" 30 "Keuken Kampioen Divisie" ""
"COMP_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 30 "Eerste divisie" ""
Yes that would be fine
Jorgen
"COMP_LONG_NAME_CHANGE" 1301411 "TOTO KNVB Beker" ""
"COMP_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 1301411 "KNVB Beker" ""
About the Dutch Eerste Divisie: the KNVB sometimes names it Eerste Divisie, with a D and sometimes divisie with a d. As all other Dutch competitions in the LNC file start with a capital letter on each word, I would prefer to see "Keuken Kampioen Divisie" and "Eerste Divisie"
Thus:
"COMP_LONG_NAME_CHANGE" 30 "Keuken Kampioen Divisie" ""
"COMP_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 30 "Eerste Divisie" ""

This is already in the file

I downloaded it just before replying to your post and the long name is TOTO KNVB Beker

Also thanks for putting the name changes for Frankfurt in it!

I've taken a note of it but I won't change it in my files for now, since chances are they'll be with the correct name in FM19
Jorgen
I would have suggested the other changes in the database topics, but didn't know how.
mons
The UID is 13153669, if it helps
Which other changes and which database topics do you mean?
Jorgen
I meant a higher budget for Pyramids FC and the staff changes that are not already in the Susie Live Update.
mons
You don't need the editor to check UIDs. Just use our FM database search tool
I'm not sure whether the live update can change club budgets tbh, but any staff movements should be changeable as per normal practice methinks
