This file will need to be re-applied if/when official 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 automatically re-installed by Steam when official patches come out.

 

Some of these changes, ESPECIALLY THE CLUB NAMES, do NOT apply in existing save-games. There's a workaround for that in the first post.


The sortitoutsi real names fix changes the instances of fake names in Football Manager 2022 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed, such as Champions League, Europa League and Premier League displaying instead of EURO Cup, EURO Vase and Premier Division respectively. It will also fix the fact that the German and Japanese National teams don't call up real players. These are all fully save-game compatible.

 

There is also a club name changes file, which changes the names of clubs in a way which ensures that any nicknames entered in the default database are retained. This file includes the proper names for Brazilian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian (including Juventus) and French clubs, as well as Manchester Utd, to circumvent licensing restrictions. It also adds real-life media and journalists, encompassing most major footballing nations and continents. Brazilian clubs' text colours are also changed through an editor data file. Another editor data file creates the Ajax non-playing staff and the German national team manager missing from the database due to licensing restrictions. Finally, it includes a small file which corrects the 3-Letter competition names to correspond with any changes made in the lnc files. For all the files in this paragraph to work, however, you will need to start a new game.


Follow the below instructions to install this version of this file

Equivalent folders for Mac users

Mac

 

OPEN 

/ Users / username / Library / Application Support / Steam / SteamApps / common / Football Manager 2022 / data / database / db / 2200 
 

DELETE only the dbc , edt and lnc folders

 

OPEN 

/ Users / username / Library / Application Support / Steam / SteamApps / common / Football Manager 2022 / data / database / db / 2201

OPEN 

/ Users / username / Library / Application Support / Steam / SteamApps / common / Football Manager 2022 / data / database / db / 2240 
 

DELETE only the dbc , edt and lnc folders

 

You can find these folders by clicking, in the Finder, the Go menu in the menu bar, then choose Go to Folder and type the folder path name (obviously inserting your username), then click Go.

 

You can get to the Library folder by simply selecting Go from the top bar and holding "alt" key - The Library folder suddenly appears on the drop down menu

 

For Mac Lion users, the Library folder will be hidden. Use this link to find out how to show it.

 

For those struggling to find the Steam and Steam Apps folder etc using Mac with the new OS High Sierra, this link below shows how you can unhide your Library folder which will then let you find the other folders.

 


STEP 2:
COPY the dbc, edt and lnc folders from the downloaded pack 

STEP 3: 
PASTE them into each of your respective folders mentioned in step 1.

 

These are what the respective folder structures should look like in the 2240 folder:

 

dbc: 

 

dbc/permanent: 

 

edt/permanent: 


lnc: 

 


STEP 4:
COPY the 11 files located in the EDITOR DATA FILES folder in the downloaded pack

 

STEP 5
PASTE to \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\editor data

 

This is also the same folder to be used for Gamepass.

 

As stated by SI themselves, for Gamepass, however:

 

You are not able to change the user data location as such but you can use the user data folder in Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2022 to store facepacks and graphics.

 

Equivalent folder for Mac

Users/YOUR Mac USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive

By default this folder is hidden, so to access you need to do as follows:

Open Finder
Click ‘Go’ from the menubar
Press and hold down the ‘Option’ (Alt) key
This will bring up the ‘Library’, click to enter then go to ‘Application Support’ -> ‘Sports Interactive’ -> ‘Football Manager 2022’[/spoiler]

This should be what your editor data folder looks like now. There may initially be a config.xml file in this folder and it can be safely overwritten; it is generated by FM every time the game starts.


This should be what your editor data folder looks like now. There may initially be a config.xml file in this folder and it can be safely overwritten; it is generated by FM every time the game starts.

 

 

To make sure the files have been applied correctly, go to the Champions Cup and EURO Vase in your saved game, and they should be renamed to Champions League and Europa League respectively. If you are in the middle of a save-game, Japanese and German national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not immediately. Do keep in mind that this file does not add Japan-based players, who are not in the official database and will need a third-party add-on to be created and added.

 

Club names are only changed if you apply the editor data files before starting a new game. For a workaround if you've already started a new save-game, then please read the opening post of this thread.

I thought he was speaking about the Malaysian league name (i.e. the competition name itself) and not club name changes.

 

What about the above club names then? Are they to be removed entirely or are they to be amended? If the latter, what to? The more info provided, the better 🙂

It's the editor data file with the words “Juventus fixes” helpfully included in the filename. It needs to be in place before starting a new game, however.

If you get double names of Ajax staff, then you probably have another file in place fulfilling the same function. Can I see a screenshot of your editor data folder?

 

This file does not add images for them either, as per the FAQ.

Can I, again, have screenshots of how the folders in the main post which have screenshots look on your system? You don't seem to be installing it correctly.

 

As explained in the main post, when official updates are released, files which are removed when installing this fix do occasionally get re-created as part of that process. It's why re-downloading and re-applying this fix is recommended whenever a new official update is released.

I'd love to help but I hadn't even heard of Steam Deck before today. Also, as far as I'm aware, FM isn't released on Linux, but I'm happy to be corrected.

Can I, again, have screenshots of how the folders in the main post which have screenshots look on your system? You don't seem to be installing it correctly.

 

As explained in the main post, when official updates are released, files which are removed when installing this fix do occasionally get re-created as part of that process. It's why re-downloading and re-applying this fix is recommended whenever a new official update is released.

Perhaps I wasn't clear. The folders you uploaded screenshots for contained extra files, which shouldn't be there if you re-install this download. Once you re-install it, please upload screenshots of the same folders so I can verify all is in order 👍

 

As outlined in the main post, national teams don't appear instantly but only when players are called up.

That is odd!

Maybe you missed the delete steps.

As it should be impossible that files are appearing out of nowhere, if I understood the issue right

 

OPEN 

Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 2022\data\database\db\2200


DELETE only the dbc , edt and lnc folders


OPEN

What version of the game are you playing? Is it Steam or Gamepass? What I need you to do in your next post (and not in a previous one) is provide screenshots of the dbc/permanent, edt/permanent and lnc folders in 2230 and 2240 respectively. I want to be sure all is in order.

 

To clarify, if you are in the middle of a save-game when you applied the download again, Japanese and German national teams will be populated in the next instance that players are called up, and not immediately.

If your issue is still in place even if you start a new game, then you might not have installed this download correctly. Can I have a screenshot of the lnc folder for the database with which you're starting the save game?

I think it's an issue with FM on gamepass, it was previously working but I think the Xbox app had an update at some point which has made it stop working.

yes, i play normal a long time save this morning, after today restart PC i need reinstall FM and mods wont load proper!
Brazilian clubs, competitons, etc wont load correct on new or old saves….
i checked and reinstalled mod's and it is a game/gamepass version issue.

EDIT:
I found i workaround for Gamepass Version wont load proper moded files!
after made installation as tutorials.
Open Xbox Game pass app
Go to start menu , find football Manager 2022 and select "Run as Administrator" ("executar como administrador" em Portuguese)!
on admin mode, Mod's and files modifications load proper on Windows Store/Gamepass version!

Mons,

 

If I wanted to make a Basic competition change (Example: Points deduction for the 6 PL teams who were involved in ESL Breakaway) would I need to make that change in all 11 files or if I did it one would that change override the other files?

You should make any changes you have in mind in a separate editor data file to the ones in this download 👍
