This file is intended for FM13.3, and will need to be re-applied if/when 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 re-installed when patches come out.
Magrippinho very helpfully created a YouTube video on how this file should be installed. Some of the contents are different - but the procedure is identical.
Or, you can follow the below instructions to install this file:
Step 1: Go to
PC
Step 2: Delete the dbc, edt and lnc folders from the folder above
Step 3: Copy the dbc, edt and lnc folder from this download into the folder mentioned in step 1.
Step 4: Go to:
Step 6: Keeping the folder in step 5 open, go back to the file you downloaded and open the folder named "editor data files".
Step 7: Copy the 30 files in the folder from step 6 into the folder mentioned in step 5.
To check if the file is working, go to the Champions Cup and EURO Vase, and they should be renamed to Champions League and Europa League respectively. If you are in the middle of a save-game, German national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not instantly.

The date of 12th March refers to the last comment and not the upload date of the file. This date is indicated in the thread title, to avoid confusion.
Keep in mind that the media files were originally created by separate people and that therefore some media sources may be duplicated across two or more files. It is not necessarily that simple a fix because I've had previous instances where I thought that a particular item was deleted or amended and this change was not displayed when starting a new game.
The point you make in the second paragraph is definitely valid. Although it is not that difficult to do, I do not have the time, however, to collect the media sources myself. If you, or anybody else, is prepared to do that, then I would be more than happy to add it to this file in future versions. If anybody is interested, feel free to PM me if you need assistance so that this thread isn't clogged with technical talk unnecessarily.
Please use the format used in the Awards.lnc file to create any file you do so I can easily add it to the main file. Feel free to contact me via PM
I think I might have, but I still have to confirm. It's not save-game compatible, but it's not exactly a gamebreaker tbh imo.

Not if everybody has it as well.

So I´m managing FC Porto B, in Portugal, but when I talk to the media about a player or an opposite staff, the media that "gives" the news are from Croatia, Serbia or Austria instead of being from Portugal (like the newspapers ABola, Ojogo, or other).
Cheers

If there's any specific media names which have this issue, then I'd be more than happy to see if I can correct that.
gs1728
Among the interested media it has two or three north-american news papers.
PS: If you guys need some feedback for other portuguese media sources, names and reportes, just say.
mons
I want to check if it's a universal matter or if it's something which is only happening to me. Is anybody interested in receiving the latest versions of the media sources file and starting a new game to check this?

First of all I must say that despite having average intelligence and all having all my faculties, my brain sometimes fails to interpret the simplest of information. So basically sorry if am being an idiot and the answer is staring me straight in my face.
So I want only ever use the default database on FM because I do not want the January Transfers updated, so obviously I want to use these files for that database.
Back on FM11, the last version I brought, there were two folders now there is a "DBC" folder. I presume this contains hot fixes, and data error fixes for database, which I would like to keep if that is the case. The DBC folder downloaded from here has the same files from 1330 and differs from 1300.
So what do I do?
Still replace all three folders has stated in Step two of the instructions?
Just replace the edt and lnc folders like in simpler times?
Or am i just stuffed for not getting these files earlier before the January update came out?

I've downloaded this file and followed the steps - including copying this into both 1300 and 1330 files, and into the separate editor data files.
Although I have the full competition names etc, the German and Japanese national teams still have the fake player names.
What am I doing wrong? Can you help, thanks.
mons
If you want to use this file for the default database, then go back some pages in this thread to find the sendspace link for a version of this file which can be used with it.
If you want to, you can even use the lnc files in the 1330 version with the default database.
Hope this clarifies.
HappyDude88, please note that the instructions say that you delete the default dbc, edt and lnc folders and replace them with the new ones. Otherwise the files created by the game, and which make the German and Japanese national teams have fake players, will be retained. Hope this clarifies.

I have purposely not included the American, Argentinian and Brazilian media sources files as there are a number of items in there which, despite having been changed, are still being displayed incorrectly in the game. It doesn't really affect gameplay in a major way, but some entries were being displayed in far-flung countries/divisions where they really shouldn't. For those who have them in their editor data file, they can choose whether to delete them or choose them when next starting a new game.
Thanks to everybody for their feedback and suggestions

How can you tell that the competition names aren't working? Please watch Magrippinho's video in the OP, and also install the dbc, edt and lnc folders in the 1330 folder, and not just in the 1300 folder.

Would anyone care to help explain how to get around this, i think im using the 13.3.0 database

I need more info, and ideally a screenshot of the 13330/lnc folder, but I suspect that you have not deleted the lnc folder, prior to copying the one in this download. Merging or copy/pasting is not enough.
Also, if this update was done in the middle of a save-game, then you have to wait for the next call-ups for the German national team to be populated with real players.
I suspect that Notepad does not allow the use of the symbols in the second column. Speak to me via PM so I can correct them.
They are not the same as Nik33's, but they can be safely utilized alongside them.
Deadlydiego
Thanks Mons, Havent tried this yet, but you suspected correct, I did just copy the Inc folder over instead of deleting and pasting in, will give it a try later and let you know how i get on
Cheers mate

Much appreciated for the info!
