Real-life annual weather data from weatherspark.com and climatestotravel.com was used to optimize current weather patterns, and create new ones.
This file will do 2 things:
1. Help give the feeling of being in different countries. No longer does every region have a similar type of weather. For example, the Brazilian Amazon's Spring is now only 20% likely to be dry, instead of the original 60%(be prepared for delayed games!). It feels much more "tropical". The Spanish coast highly contrasts it, being most often very calm, dry, and mild. Originally, France used England's weather, and was 75% chance to be calm wind. Now, a match in France is 80% likely to be anywhere from breezy to extremely windy. Mexico will now either by dry or stormy. Swedish coast in the spring is no longer mostly 7-13 C, but can be anywhere from -7 to 21 C.
2. It will also, in some regions, increase whatever effect weather already has. Russian Siberia's winter is now TRULY cold, so if cold has ANY effect in the ME, it will be more apparent. Originally, winter in the Siberian region was mostly 0 to -7. It now is mostly -16 and below. On the other side, Mexican desert originally only reached 34 C at times. Now it can go above 43 C.
Can you battle the down-pour from Kyushu, Japan's typhoon season, the below -20 temps in Russia, the sweltering heat of Mexico, or the hot summers and monsoons in Senegal? Or do you prefer the mild, sunny Mediterranean side of Spain?

Since it's a .fmf file, I presume you place the file in My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2020\editor data\. Then when starting a new save, you tick the file to be loaded.

Yes, starting a new save is required for all editor data files, since they have to be selected (check-marked) when starting a new save and database.

There's a long explanation in the main post, is that not enough?

Will this file work in FM23? Cheers

So far so good for all graphic mods, balls, ads, pitches etc

I'm sure it would work otherwise, but these editor data-files have to be opened and saved in FM 23 Pre-game Editor, and that is not released until when the official game (not beta) releases.
fmilln7
Do we know if these work with the FM23? Cheers

Works
MrGizMo
How? It has not been updated with the FM23 editor?
