If you have any issues, first read the FAQ.

 

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 2023 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed, such as  Premier League displaying instead of Premier Division. 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 Napoli) 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.

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 2340 folder:

 

dbc: 

dbc/permanent: 

edt/permanent: 

lnc: 

 

STEP 4:
COPY the 9 files located in the EDITOR DATA FILES folder in the downloaded pack

 

STEP 5
PASTE to \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023\editor data

 

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

 

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 2023’

 

Equivalent folder for Steam Deck

devices / home / deck / .local / share / Steam / steamapps / compatdata / 1904540 / pfx / drive_c / users / steamuser / My Documents / Sports Interactive / Football Manager 2023 / editor data

 

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 English Premier Division in your saved game, and it should be renamed to Premier League. If you are in the middle of a save-game when you install this download, 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.

This is an English-language forum, so please post in English. UEFA competitions are licensed this year so any errors in the name are a bug, and not due to this file.

I'll try and put a fix in place, but it's a database issue with the Portuguese language, I suspect, so it might not be able to be resolved.

Out of curiosity does this fix also include Japanese club and competition names; this is the only thing I can see thats not updated.

 

Japanese players have been called up to national team, all other fixes appear to be correct.

 

Thank you very much for all the efforts.

What's wrong with the Japanese club and competition names? I don't believe there's any changes needed to the former, and the latter are changed as far as I'm aware.

Thank you for the quick reply, embarrassingly I stand corrected, It wasnt until I clicked on the team that indeed the name is corrected.  The short name look drastically different to my uneducated eyes, apologies.

No worries, you just gave me a fright for a second there! Sometimes licensing restrictions introduce random changes like this I might not have been aware of until they're pointed out to me 🙂

By installing the file correctly, and using the workaround in the first post if you've started a save game already.

 

Almost certainly the same issue you had in March of this year.

Sure thing - this is what I have in my installation folder (x contains the original dbc, edt and lnc folders that come with the game, could that be the problem?):

Hi - I'm trying to install this on a Macbook running FM23 Touch installed via Apple Arcade. It's picking up the renamed competitions etc (so I now have La Liga, Premier League and so on), but not the changes in the files in Step 5 I think (so I still have Parthenope, Man UFC and Real San Sebastian). This is starting a new game. 

 

I've saved the files from Step 5 into /Users/dave/Library/Containers/com.sega.soccer.manager.23/Data/Library/Application Support/editor data/

 

The equivalent path for /Users/dave/Library/Containers/com.sega.soccer.manager.23/Data/Library/Application Support/graphics works fine with logo packs for example.

 

Cheers!

If it worked last year, then it should work this year too. But I haven't tested it for that.

 

I would be glad if it could be tested, because imo this real names fix is the best there is overall (even our german real names fix isn't as detailed as yours).

I'm afraid I don't have the time to test it myself. There's nothing stopping you from testing it yourself and letting me know if any further changes are needed. The structure of the file is the same, so if a particular change worked last year and is still in the file code this year, then I see no reason why it shouldn't work.

 

If there are any changes you'd like to propose to the current German data, please do let me know and I'll add it, ahead of the release of v1.3 👍

May have found an error (might be on my end mind you), but on the New Zealand Top division, there is 3 regional groups “Northern”, “Central” and “Southern”, before splitting into the championship group.  However I have noted the Northern regional group in my game is called “NRFL Premier league” which is a regional division below the top division.

Hi @mons I would like to suggest adding an extra line to the guide, which helps in some edge cases. Specifically Step 5.

 

I didn't want to store all my logos, kits, facepacks, and so on within the documents folder, so I created a new folder at D:\path\to\fm\graphics\  in which I store all my graphical data. I then add --user_data_location=D:\path\to\fm\graphics\ to my Launch Options within Steam.

 

This means the correct path for step 5 is actually D:\path\to\fm\graphics\editor data\ and not \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023\editor data.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot of other people like me who made this change (i.e. for disk space or cloud back-up reasons), so I thought it'd be useful to mention this here in the thread (for you googlers) but also as something to add to the guide so future people don't waste time debugging it as I have.

Hi @mons I would like to suggest adding an extra line to the guide, which helps in some edge cases. Specifically Step 5.

 

I didn't want to store all my logos, kits, facepacks, and so on within the documents folder, so I created a new folder at D:\path\to\fm\graphics\  in which I store all my graphical data. I then add --user_data_location=D:\path\to\fm\graphics\ to my Launch Options within Steam.

 

This means the correct path for step 5 is actually D:\path\to\fm\graphics\editor data\ and not \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2023\editor data.

That's what I do myself, but it's an extra step that I'm loath to explicitly outline since it will incrementally increase the risk of people getting even further confused. I tend to believe that people who know how to figure out changing the user data folder can be trusted to know the editor data files should go in there, and don't need it to be explained.

Was wondering if we knew when version 1.3 would be released (apologies if already asked; tried scrolling through the chat to find out lol),  I was also wondering, if I start my save and a new update is released. as described in description, does that mean I have to reapply the name change fix, or would that only be required if a new save was started.

 

Thanks again for all the work you do guys.

It is recommended to reapply the fix every time it is released. This way you'll get all save-game compatible changes and have the other fixes in place in case you decide to start a new game at some point.

 

I don't intend to release v1.3 until a new official patch is released, whenever that may be…

I expect a regular FM update within two weeks, but let’s see 😊

Yep, which is why I don't think it makes much sense to release 2 versions that close to each other, plus there's more time to add the suggestions/fixes coming in 🙂
