These files will update the Japanese leagues in FM24.3 by adding many players that are missing due to license restrictions. It will also fix the AFC Champions League.
You will need to combine it with the Real Name Fix otherwise some teams will be missing and some players will have fake names.
Also available for download are relevant graphics including player faces, kits, balls and stadium backgrounds.
Credit and special thanks should go to AzamiNene and the Football Manager Japan Discord for all their hard work.

Why do the photos have different dimensions?

Is this file a replacement for or update for the below pictured file?
bosco8179
what do you mean by fixing the afc champions league
Footygamer
Remove that file 🙂

Does the face pack just go in your faces folder under graphics?
Footygamer
Yeah check our general guide for installing graphics in Football Manager, this is already linked to at the bottom of the main post

I have a red triangle when I choose which leagues will be in the database on Japan. It says a lot of lower teams are missing or something like that
Footygamer
Can you screenshot? Just saying “or something like that” isn't very helpful and it's usually a good idea to make life as easy as possible for those trying to help you.

Have exactly the same issue. Only have the editor files for this and the sortitousi real name fix activated!
Footygamer
I think this is because you haven't installed the real name fix properly, there are dbc/edt files you need to remove. Sometimes the game puts these back when there's an update so you might need to remove them again.

Thanks @Footygamer a complete/fresh reinstall of the real name fix, has it working!
Charles van Nes
Awesome work! Everything working but only this:
I see the facepic for Naoki Yoshikawa but none for Tomoyo Sawa!

After using these database fixes, most European scouts now have 'very good' knowledge of Japan. A bit immersion breaking when my random lower tier Latvian or Slovakian scout have knowledge in a country they've never been in. After opening up the v1.5.fmf file it seems you've added Japan with partial knowledge into half of the nations in the world. Just why?
Oskargustus
Also Japanese Football League's (4th Divison) rules fail with the latest database.

how did you do it ?

When I first installed I only copied the lnc, edt files over there existing ones. once I deleted them and put just the ones from the fix it worked pefectly. Basically I didn't follow the instructions properly!

I have this problem too, unfortunately I have to restart the save, luckily I realized right at the start of the season.

Some questions. Is this based on Dosukoi file? https://community.sports-interactive.com/forums/topic/579558-fm244-japan-league-system-level7-jleague-2024-real-fixtures/
What exactly is the AFC Fix? Can I use it in combination with this file https://www.fmscout.com/c-fm24-leagues.html?id=10477 or are both achieving the same?
SidYang7
Any idea how to fix this? Doesn't make sense for a lot of European scouts having ‘very good’ knowledge.

I'm using FC12 and TCM, how does this Japan pack work with those packs? Any conflicts?
