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.

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.

Serie D - Messina was merged with Camaro and change name in ACR Messina
Città di Messina now is new FC Messina
Eccellenza - Civitavecchia now have a new denomination after the merge with CPC: Civitavecchia 1920

Thanks for that; I'll have to see how the researchers decide to assign the respective UIDs before making these changes

It doesn't make much sense to update the file at this stage, since plenty of competitions are still in the process of changing their name. Happily, if there is something you would want to change in your save-game, it's just a case of opening the file(s) with Notepad and editing them yourself
Thanks, will take a note of this

xml file does not open in fm 2019
Can you create fmf file
xAtreyux
There seems to be no point in applying the license fix because each time you delete the right files and replace them with the fixed files they automatically come back as soon
as you load the game up and the fix doesn't work! so irritating!!
mons
This download contains no xml files
I'm sorry if it isn't working properly, but this file was created a long time before the advent of the Gamepass version of the game and some teething issues are to be expected. I'm not sure whether the issue you're having is due to an issue with the file itself or something you could be doing wrongly yourself. I'd have to check, as I don't have the Gamepass version myself...
xAtreyux
I've had no problems with the steam version of the game. I'm not doing anything wrong I just think it's the Gamepass version itself and for some reason it keeps automatically
adding back the files like "Fake.dbc, Licensing2.dbc etc... and I don't know why.
