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
 Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ football manager 2013 \ data \ db \ 1300 
AND
 Program Files \ Steam \ SteamApps \ common \ football manager 2013 \ data \ db \ 1330 
MAC
USERNAME \ Library \ Application Support \ Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ Football Manager 2013 \ Data \ db \ 1300
AND
USERNAME \ Library \ Application Support \ Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ Football Manager 2013 \ Data \ db \ 1330
For Mac Lion users, the Library folder will be hidden. Use this link to find out how to show it.

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:

Documents \ Sports Interactive \ Football Manager 2013
Step 5: Open the folder named "editor data" contained therein. If it does not exist, then create it.

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.

There might. I've not used nik's media file, but I doubt it's as comprehensive as this one so you can easily choose not to use it.


Thanks.

I'll just use your one then

I've added the awards and competitions in Portuguese and fixed the other two instances of 3 quotation marks.

I'll have a look at the club name changes later to see whether I should add them to the dbc file.

Thanks

The main issues seem to be related to the American and the Brazilian media sources files. I've individually changed the offending entries in the editor but when I start a new game, these changes do not seem to be affected.

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?

Football (or Futbol) Chernozemya - is the media name that appears when managing in West Europe (spain, germany etc), which is strange. The media is from Russia or Ukraine I guess.

It's one of the entries which I've changed, which appears in the editor as changed but still persists in not showing correctly in the game. It's mystifying, frankly.

Everything is in order - 3 files were removed from previous file versions and the OP was not updated to reflect this. Please proceed.

This file's had over 50,000 downloads - I think we'd have noticed before if it wasn't working

Either
a) you're in the middle of a save game, in which case the German national team will call up real players in the next call-up
or
b) you've installed the file incorrectly. The pre-existing lnc folder should be DELETED and replaced by the lnc folder from this download.

I need help!
I think I did a problem in: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 2013\data\update
I deleted the updates files instead of the Inc,Dbc and Edt files in the Update folder.
So what can I do?
I deleted all the updates folders and now the game is crashing with errors in the "message board" and language mixed words, other things.
How I can recover my updates files?
I deleted them permanently,

Verify the integrity of the game cache by:

1. Loading Steam
2. From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.
3. Select the Local files tab and click the ‘VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAMECACHE…’ button.
4. Steam will verify the game's files - this process may take several minutes.
5. Once the process is completed, the Check Window will automatically exit.
6. We recommend verifying your cache twice to make sure all files are fully downloaded


And read the installation instructions thoroughly for this and all other files next time...

I did all things again and this still not working for me
I want to play with Germany national team.
Do I need to delete the "fake files" in 1330 folder too?
Here is a pic of what should be the problem:

http://i45.tinypic.com/10pneyh.png

The "fake files" are in that folder only. Do I need to change something in that folder ?

Also do I need to change something at:

Here are pics of my "substitutions" when I followed the tutorial to see if all things are in the right place:

What bug fixes? The file's working perfectly fine.




sammyspam, the dbc, edt and lnc folders should be used in the 1330 folder as well, and not just the 1300 folder...

hello guys.
its my first post. hope the right place for it.
dont know where to post this. bought fm13. my first fm. i have started to edit lots of things in fm13 editor.
just got two questions. hope someone can answer.
1. i saw that you could extend the 6 letter name of teams in fm11 up to e.g. 30 letters. if its possible in fm13. how to do it?
2. if i put a name for portuguese clubs in, it automatically overwrites the long name. i cant even put in a long name. same with nicknames. does someone know how to solve this problem?

thanks a lot in advance

cheers

1. I don't think it's possible any more.
2. Since FM12, licensing restrictions have removed the ability to have different long and short names for Portuguese clubs so there's isn't anything which can be done there, either.
