Please when will the CA/PA submissions be integrated into the database update, cause that's the only reason i paid now 10 pounds and it's not the case…some players are still not rated as they should even though submissions have been sent and and approved, weeks ago
M.C
The CA/PA submissions, at present, continue to require manual processing in order to be part of the overall Data Update. With that in mind, at the moment, the aim is to update the file that contains them on approximately a monthly basis. In terms of the next planned update, it is going to be ‘any day now’ - to coincide with the closure of the European transfer window(s). Naturally, we expected a lot of submissions associated with players moving clubs - which has been the case.
I do believe the plan remains to automate this so it is integrated/iterated on a daily basis, but that piece of development work hasn't happened yet. As I am not the site owner, I genuinely can't share any more detail/info than that, at this time, as I don't know any more.
If you feel you would like a refund on the basis of being misled about what was included and/or the rate of updates, please make a post in the following thread and the site owner will review that accordingly: https://sortitoutsi.net/content/57415/all-issues-with-premium-membership-post-here?page=21#comment_839129.

Will there be a clear announcement/post when each CA/PA update is integrated into a daily update?
AFAIK it is not obvious, especially without the in game editor, to see if it has been updated.
Thanks
M.C
I am sure we could arrange an announcement/clear indication (in any/all relevant places) once that pivot to daily updates is made, yes.
thehet
Sorry, I meant an announcement even with the current planned (monthly) schedule.
For example, the CA/PA was integrated on X date. Next planned = Y Date.
Right now, it's not clear how up to date the CA/PA portion of the update is?
ryanpark
Be great to know when the CA/PA has been updated. I notice above it says any day now a few days ago?
oopsupsideyourhead
Yeah it would be good to have a post or note by the download to say when the last CA/PA attribute update was

Has there been any progress on the ability updates being integrated? 18th August was the last time any CA/PA edits were made, according to the non-dynamic file history. It's been a week since it was stated to be due “any day now”, too.
M.C
The latest build of the CA/PA community submissions is underway as I type this. There has been some (small) delay, owing to various other priorities - including troubleshooting some issues with the Data Update (unrelated), but also some important development work being done on other site functionality.
Some of that work is, importantly, a direct precursor to integrating the CA/PA submissions into a daily update flow. That isn't the case effective immediately, but it is close.
I would expect a new CA/PA update to be integrated into the main Data Update within the next 24 hours. I've also made the suggestion around visibly publishing the ‘last update’ timestamp - that is a task for the Site Administrator/Owner to decide on and implement, assuming it is feasible to do so.
thehet
This is a great update, thankyou.

@Osarogie @thehet @andynufc10 @oopsupsideyourhead @ryanpark - tagging those who have specifically asked about this recently.
Just to confirm, a latest build of the CA/PA update (which is part of the Enhanced/Classic FM Data Update) was performed. It was finalised this morning, about 60 minutes ago.
To that end, it will be included from tomorrow's update onwards (unfortunately, it was completed too late for the build that was released about 7 hours ago).
On the note of presenting the ‘last update’ on the download page systematically, we are not going to do that because we are now very close to integrating these changes to be re-processed, daily, as standard - which was always the goal.

Thank you!

Thank you, been holding out starting a new save… can't wait

Brilliant news and look forward to starting a new game over the weekend!

Hello - I have just downloaded the latest update with the latest ‘Non Dynamic Data’ file, but some of the CA's seems to have been removed or overwritten with their default - is this intentional?
One example is Cole Palmer - the previous ‘Non Dynamic Data’ file had his CA at 174 but the latest has removed this and now he's at the game default of 140. His attribute change on the profile submissions page has him at CA 178 as of 1st June…he’s now a “squad player” behind the likes of Garnacho 🤣
PA’s seem to be intact, but it is looking like some players who were upgraded in the last ‘Non Dynamic Data’ update have potentially had their CA removed/overwritten in the current update - couple of others I noticed were Ekitike, Amad Diallo.
There are obviously some players that have been upgraded such as Woltemade (although doesn’t match his attribute change on the profile submissions page).
I have only had a quick scan – apologies if this has already been highlighted, or it is intentional.
M.C
I am fairly confident that the failure to write the updated CAs into the content of ‘Non Dynamic Data’ file is unintentional. That is something we will need to troubleshoot/bugfix. I will flag and we will get on the case ASAP - thank you for flagging.
In terms of the players you have observed that don't match a specific Ability Submission - this is intentional. The Ability Submissions don't work on the basis of ‘most recent overrides all others’. You'll notice that one player can have multiple Approved submissions (one per member). It factors all of these in to arrive at a final CA/PA value.
WelshViking7
Thank you as always @M.C 👍
M.C
FWIW, my very basic, working theory for now is that - perhaps - in the processing of the data there was a ‘cutoff’ point and so only players who have had CA/PA submissions more recently than X date have ended up being committed into the file. But I'll be honest - that is pure guesswork. I don't personally have any way to query the back-end site data and I am also not personally involved in the actual ‘data processing’ activity. Also, as I'm sure you can appreciate, the output in the FMF is extensive and consists of many, many records - so pinning down a root-cause in those circumstances, for me alone, is tricky.
Osarogie
Thank you, just loaded up a save to test before i saw this and I can confirm what you said is true, saw that some players were now back to their original CAS 😢 e.g marmoush, ekitike…guess the wait for a new save goes on
Osarogie
Hello, is there a way the i can get a rollback of the update to download, like download the upate that was released yesterday
M.C
Yes, you certainly can. Previous releases can be accessed via https://sortitoutsi.net/football-manager-data-update/releases.
…and just to reiterate, I am working on understanding the cause of the error in today's Data Update (i.e. missing values in the Non Dynamic Data file) and rectifying it. But I may need support from others, so I can't promise a timeline to resolve right now.
Footygamer
Sorry about the issue with the Non Dynamic Data.
The problem is fixed now and will be in the next update.
To explain the problem basically when it's building the file it compares the new value to the original value from FM and doesn't add an entry if it's the same.
But recently I did a big import to our guide section and was accidentally getting the “original value from FM” as the value from our FM Update not FM24 base game, so wasn't writing entries when it was the same which would obviously be often.

Hi, is this already live?
WelshViking7
Apologies - by next update do you mean tomorrows (14th)?
Just downloaded todays which has just been released and the date timestamp of the ‘Non Dynamic Data’ file is from 12/08/2025.
M.C
Yes, it will be live in tomorrow’s update (which is the next one).
Any corrective activity - such as what FootyGamer did - that takes place after the ‘Built at’ time gets incorporated in the next iteration.
Those builds are automatic and happen at around 04:00 UK-time. The actual Data Update release happens thereafter, on a variable basis, as a staff member needs to finalise it. But most of the time it is within a few hours of the build.
WelshViking7
Awesome - cheers 👍

Was the non dynamic data updated? I downloaded the update and seems it wasn't - thanks in advance for everything btw!
