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 2019 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed, such as Champions League, Europa League and Premier League displaying instead of EURO Cup, EURO Vase and Premier Division respectively. It will also fix the fact that the Japanese National teams don't call up real players and that the Bayern manager has a fake name. These are all 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 Brazilian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French clubs to circumvent licensing restrictions. It also adds real-life media and journalists, encompassing most major footballing nations and continents. Brazilian clubs' text colours are also changed through an editor data file. 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.

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, Japanese national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not instantly.

You should edit the background color of Champions League.. to see the CL logo.

A very good point. I think the logo may have been in white when the color change was first made, which is why I may not have identified the issue earlier.
Will see what more-suited colours I can use

use white champions league logo
The Colors of the Europa League are still from when they still had the previous logo. Must be a black background with orange letters

That's probably the official 19.0.2 patch. The file will still work nonetheless. although you may wish to download the latest version of this file released just a few minutes ago
I've changed the colours like this:
I don't know how come it's looking like that. Here's what it looks like for me:
Are you using a language other than English perchance?

When you next load up your save-game, go to save as (instead of save). It will give you the location where your save games go. If you go one folder higher, it will take you to the location where your editor data folder is.
As I don't have a Mac, my knowledge is somewhat limited, so I'll have to repeat what I said in the OP, which is that the default editor data folder is
/Users/[Your Mac Username]/Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 201X/

Do you know how to make it work in other language? Thank you
mons
Use the workaround in the first post

Great work mons. I know you’ve recently changed champions league and Europe league colours
However I’d have black instead of grey, and a slightly darker orange on the europa? Based on their website
And champions league id have as dark blue background with light blue/purple stripes instead of the white background and blue stripes Based on their website
mons
There's no right or wrong for something like that, and it's not something I'm thinking of changing at this point tbh. It's something users can change very quickly and very simply if they so wish (which is the primary reason why it's a separate file in its own right)
The CL colours were originally quite close to that, but the CL logo in black didn't appear on a blue background, which is why I went for the white background instead. For the same reason, anything much darker than that shade of grey will see the same issue with the EL logo.
Chetan K Paul
Thanks in advance
mons
You need to download and install the files, following all the installation instructions.
Once you do so, apply the workaround to the City, Club and Stadium Names.lnc file. That should give you the bulk of the changes, apart from the realistic media names and Brazilian clubs' text colours, which will need a new game to be started.
