A question for those more experienced than myself with the editor/databases.

Before starting my latest save I wanted to try and create a ‘British Cup’. The idea being that the current league cups in each of the British countries basically all get merged into one with increased prize money and reputation.

I tried all sorts but struggled to find a format to use clubs from different nations without creating a ‘continental competition’ ie Champions League.

I gave up in the end and started the save without it but it’s still bugging me, just wondered if it is actually possible?

Thanks

Yes, I do think it's possible. Off the top of my head I'd say that because the clubs involved are from different countries you would have to create a continental competition. I imagine it's possible to create a lower reputation (compared to UEFA's CL & EL) continental cup and set the rules so that you can specify the participants. There are actually many pre-season tournaments like that created for FM, so it should be doable to make one and incorporate it to the actual season.

I would either ask for help from community members who have made multinational leagues or cups before (I remember seeing them around, both national team and club competitions that combine teams of multiple nations into one competition) or download one of their league/cup files and study it in FM Editor to see how it's been set up.

Hope that helps!

Yes I think the next route to go down would have been to try a friendly cup. With the continental one I just didn’t like the fact every club was listed as being in a continental competition.

I’m in no real rush now as like I say I’ve just started a new save but I do think it’s a good idea to download a few custom databases and study those.

Thanks for the reply.

It is possible and if you have a Google you will find mods for it already done.
