STADIUM_NAME_CHANGE does not seem to work in lnc files anymore. I have tried to change Zebre Stadium to Allianz Stadium by:
"STADIUM_NAME_CHANGE" 1209 "Allianz Stadium" ""
and several others but it does not work. Do anyone know if STADIUM_NAME_CHANGE has been obsoleted by SI? I have no problems with CLUB_NAME_CHANGE and CLUB_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE.
I've also read somewhere that "STADIUM_NAME_CHANGE" does not work for Italian stadiums but for all others? Is that true?

I don't know what "stadium name change" is, I guess it is a tool to edit stadium names, if this tool - in case it is - doesn't work you can change the stadium names using the pre-game editor by saving at the end changes in order to "load" the file with the changes with each new game. Alternatively you can do it with the in-game editor

Lnc files is a pretty powerful tool already in the game where you can change different names etc. in the game without editors and it is save game compatible and can be added or removed when you like. A lot of real name fixes rely on Lnc files too. It all works fine with commands such as:
"CLUB_NAME_CHANGE" 1106 "Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio" ""
"CLUB_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 1106 "Atalanta" ""
"CLUB_NAME_CHANGE" 2188 "Benevento Calcio" ""
"CLUB_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 2188 "Benevento" ""
But just not with the STADIUM_NAME_CHANGE command.

I did not know of the existence of this tool, can you give me a link to use it please? - however, as I told you, for the changes I create several file editors with various changes (names and surnames - stadium dimensions) that I use and update from Fm19

It's not really a tool but a method. You can read about it here: https://community.sigames.com/forums/topic/120967-guide-edt-ddt-and-lnc-files/ and here: https://fullerfm.wordpress.com/2018/12/21/changing-stadium-and-player-names-in-football-manager/. Look for the Lnc part. It has been around for years.
That said I have created my own little tool for editing and creating Lnc files but that's a different story.

Thank you, I'll take a look 🙂 sorry I couldn't help you

The command still works but not for some Italian stadiums. To change the Juventus stadium name, the only way is by using editor data files.

Thanks. I was wondering if that was the case.
