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.


Follow the below instructions to install this version of this file

STEP 1.
OPEN
Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 2019\data\database\db\1900
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 2019\data\database\db\1910
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 2019\data\database\db\1930
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders

Notes:
\Program Files (x86)\
could be
\Program Files\
depending on your set up.

Mac
OPEN
 / Users / username / Library / Application Support / Steam / SteamApps / common / Football Manager 2019 / data / database / db / 1900 
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
 / Users / username / Library / Application Support / Steam / SteamApps / common / Football Manager 2019 / data / database / db / 1910 
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
 / Users / username / Library / Application Support / Steam / SteamApps / common / Football Manager 2019 / data / database / db / 1930 
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders

You can find these folders by clicking, in the Finder, the Go menu in the menu bar, then choose Go to Folder and type the folder path name (obviously inserting your username), then click Go.

You can get to the Library folder by simply selecting Go from the top bar and holding "alt" key - The Library folder suddenly appears on the drop down

For Mac Lion users, the Library folder will be hidden. Use this link to find out how to show it.

For those struggling to find the Steam and Steam Apps folder etc using Mac with the new OS High Sierra, this link below shows how you can unhide your Library folder which will then let you find the other folders.

Slightly more detail in this post




OPEN
sdcard\Android\data\sportsinteractive.fm19\files\installed\data\\database\db\1900
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
sdcard\Android\data\sportsinteractive.fm19\files\installed\data\\database\db\1910
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
sdcard\Android\data\sportsinteractive.fm19\files\installed\data\\database\db\1930
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders




OPEN
appdata-local-packages-SportsInteractive(with a lot of random numbers)-Localcache-Local-Microsoft-WriteablePackageRoot-data\database\db\1900
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders
OPEN
sdcard\appdata-local-packages-SportsInteractive(with a lot of random numbers)-Localcache-Local-Microsoft-WriteablePackageRoot-data\database\db\1910

OPEN
sdcard\appdata-local-packages-SportsInteractive(with a lot of random numbers)-Localcache-Local-Microsoft-WriteablePackageRoot-data\database\db\1930
DELETE the dbc , edt and Inc folders



STEP 2:
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.

These are what the respective folder structures should look like in the 1910 folders:

dbc/permanent: https://i.imgur.com/lozGizB.png
edt/permanent: https://i.imgur.com/duFkzcZ.png
lnc: https://i.imgur.com/luTKTAf.png

STEP 4:
COPY the 7 files located in the EDITOR DATA FILES folder in the downloaded pack

STEP 5
PASTE to
\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2019\editor data

\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2019\\GAMEPASS\editor data


This should be what your editor data folder looks like now. There may initially be a config.xml file in this folder and it can be safely overwritten; it is generated by FM every time the game starts.

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. Do keep in mind that this file does not add Japan-based players are not in the official database and these will 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.

Sorry is this is documented already, but do we have to copy and paste the dbc , edt and Inc folders to the 1901 or just the 1900, 1910 and 1930 folders?
Thanks

The installation instructions clearly say you have to put them in all the folders

Can I do this with a mobile

We spoke via PM. I'm afraid that, since the installation instructions aren't helping you, then I can't really help you much more myself since I've never played the game on android.

Perhaps somebody who has can assist?

This file does not edit league participation at all, so I don't believe your issue is related to this download. Do you have a custom editor data file for the Brazilian leagues? Maybe that's where the issue is coming from...

As it uses editor data files, I believe it does.

If installed properly, these files work perfectly well. Looks like you may not have installed this download correctly. Can you upload screenshots of the locations you've installed it in?

Of course, here we go:

I deleted all the dbc, edt and lnc from these folders and moved the new content to this same folder. As I always do every version. I don't know why it isn't working, it used to work fine.

Why isn't that in your Steam folder? And why don't you have the 1930 folder?

You must not have done it correctly. File works perfectly well if installed correctly. If you verify the game cache after installing this patch, you'll end up recreating some of the licensing-related files deleted as part of this download.

Remember, you should only delete the dbc, edt and lnc folders. Leave the 1930_fm folder alone.

This file does not add logos, and nowhere is it said that it does

There are plenty of logo megapacks which you can download from here.

You should remove the dbc, edt and Inc folders in each of 1900, 1901, 1910 and 1930, then place the ones from this download. Merely merging them won't see this fix work properly. The dbc/permanent, edt/permanent and lnc folders should look exactly like the screenshots in the main post

I try to install the fix for my save after the update that the game had and beyond that it marks me corrections on the names of the champions, the europa league or the Japanese national team, both the betis and the real society and that type of teams they appear to me with another name (Real Hispalis for example) I followed every step for the installation, deleting the previous folders and locating those of the downloaded file as it is requested I put the original skin, erase cache of everything so that that name will be changed. If you can, would you tell me what I can do? I'm missing something to run?

From already thank you very much

As explained in the opening post, if the download is applied in the middle of a save-game then club name changes won't work. There's a quick and easy workaround for this in the first post.

Ok, I'll try to do it this way by following the data in the first post as soon as I return home and have the computer with the game at hand. When you talk about losing the nicknames you refer to? it is silly to think that it bothers me that they are not the correct names so as not to follow the current save and to start again another one where everything appears correctly because I made the test. I will try to see if I can correct it in this way so as not to lose the desire to play the save for this little detail, I hate being such a perfectionist.

Thank you.

I think that, in cases where the screen real estate isn't big enough to accommodate the entirety of the short name, the game automatically display the three-letter name instead. In fact, in the last screenshot, the full nationality name is displayed in the lower tab where there is more space But I'll have another look on the editor when I'm home, to be safe.
