EDIT: files updated for 26.2
EDIT 1 June: alternative versions added with real results*
* For Swiss & Austrian top 2 levels and German top 3 levels, not for the the expanded divisions
(with thanks to @marcodoglio94 's excellent files https://sortitoutsi.net/content/75040/fm26-2025-26-real-fixture-results-6-11-2025 )
Each real result file includes 1 June start dates, so you don't need to combine with another country file that has a late start, e.g. Seychelles
Please note, don't select both the original 26.2 files and the real results versions- they will conflict with each other, choose one or the other depending on whether you want real results or not
All files fully tested (with default database)
SWISS file- note not 100% Real Life per first three bullets as design choice/practicality
- to compromise between 100% real life & time there is no relegation from the Swiss 2. Liga (5th level) except for one to the OFV (Regional Swiss FA that Liechtenstein clubs belong to)
- Only c.1/2 the OFV system is fully set up (didn't want to create several teams with no real players) but is now active all the way to the (NEW) OFV 5 (4th level of the OFV, 9th level overall; mainly so all the 2/3 team players get real games)
- Rules changed to allow Liechtensteiner teams to be champions if finishing top of the Super League
- Rules otherwise close to real life as possible
- Regional limits updated for Swiss 2. Liga (5th level- prevents teams shifting divisions unrealistically after start season)
- Although other regional 6th level level teams not playable, real life Swiss Cup qualification cups (NEW) are set up alongside 1. Liga, 2. Liga & OFV
- 2D Kit file added for Liechtenstein teams (disclaimer: my graphics skills nowhere near my editing skills. Could not find and so does not include Vaduz (home or away), Eschen/Mauren (home/away) or Balzers (away) kit but includes updated 25/26 Home + Away kits for others- if anyone can find missing kits & turn into 3D version would be most grateful!)
AUSTRIA and GERMAN file
- Both expanded leagues with real life rules
- Real-life regional Cups (which qualify for the main national cups, similar to Switzerland) however are not changed from the original database

Thanks! Can each of these databases be used separately?
jbz
Yes

Austria doesnt work properly. Too many teams are in the first division, teams like the second team from LASK are missing…Could u may fix?
jbz
I noticed this is happening since SI updated the database, but they haven't updated the database in the editor yet (for some reason, in different locations this year).
So yes, on the agenda to fix, but need to wait until the database in the editor is updated to be in sync with the main game.

I had the same thing with Austria after downloading another Austria league mod than this one. Had 30 teams in the Bundesliga.

You won't be able to fix it immediately until the editor's database is updated. In the meantime, avoid using mods or outdated, unsynchronized databases to minimize errors.
jbz
Austria file is now updated- problem was one of the second tier teams went bust (only applied in the updated database) so had to change 2nd tier from 16 to 15 teams.
That was the only problem, but was causing strange knock-on problems like the extra teams appearing in the 1st tier.

I don't see a download from the Austria file.
Azrael
File does not appear as updated. Last update was on December 5th.
jbz
Yes you're both right, not sure what happened- reuploaded it now
Alex341246
How do you download it i am new?
jbz
Click on which fmf file you want and then place in your \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 26\editor data folder
The kits should go in the \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 26\graphics\kits folder

Kommt auch noch die 2. Klasse in österreich
jbz
I don't speak German, but yes the Austrian 2.Klasse goes back to 16 teams in the 2026/27 season if that's what you are asking
saintlibran
can you add swiss leagues from IFV? the same as in OFV just for IFV? that would be amazing man! (FC Hergiswil III and the players would be what i need)
salzicus
Love it thank you! Will the rest of the swiss lower league teams also be added or not anymore? i can just see like 3 teams for 3,4,5th league.. If not no problem, already great!
PS: I just realized, that the Squad numbers are messed up from every league. Do you know if thats fixable?
jbz
Sorry unlikely to be adding other Swiss regional leagues, IFV or otherwise
What do you mean by issues with squad numbers, just that they are missing for leagues below the Challenge League?
salzicus
Yes, but of course I understand that it’s a lot of work and not all teams have the squad numbers listed, so it’s all good. Still, thanks for the effort.
Quick question: Is there a way or trick to disable the rule that squad numbers in German leagues can only go up to 40? Can't choose above 40 for youth players neither.
Thanks again and take care
jbz
Its set as 49 for the Bundesliga and 40 in the 2 ,3 and regional divisions- I'm guessing those are the real rules (?) as I didn't change from the default database.
But yes it is possible to change them- just change the highest squad number to 99 save and revalidate before starting a new game.
salzicus
Thank you. i am not able to see the settings you posted in the picture correct? Or where can i change the squad number to 99?
I just have these basic settings that i can adjust something on. Can i find the settngs that you posted too or not?
Thanks for your effort!
Muuuhland Games
Can I use your OFV database that I am creating for all areas of Switzerland?
jbz
Yeah, no problem
jbz
I meant you had to open the germany file in the pre-game editor and change yourself before starting a new game.
But it does seem a stupid rule (maybe wrong in original database) as makes no sense to allow 99 players but not 99 squad numbers, so have updated the Germany file with up to 99 allowed in BL 3 + Regionalliga
salzicus
Thank you!! Did it also change it in 1. and 2. Bundesliga or just 3rd and regionalliga?
Appreciate it!!
Copywriter
@jbz what are the changes to the Austria and Germany?
Jamiegibo97
German regional cups still not showing on mine. Do you add the downloads to editor data?
jbz
Regional Cups aren't updated for Austria and Germany, just the divisions (I considered it but it is quite a lot of work putting teams in the right regions etc)
Anyway that is clear in the opening post isn't it ?
