Subscribe to this thread (by following these steps) so you get notifications whenever a new version is released.

 

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 updates come out.

 

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.

 


 

The sortitoutsi real names fix changes the instances of fake names in Football Manager 2026 to the proper, real life names for awards, cities, stadiums and competitions, in cases where the actual name is not licensed. It will also fix the fact that the German National team doesn't call up real players. These fixes are all fully save-game compatible.

 

Follow the below instructions to install this version of this file.

 

Once you download this file, you’ll see these folders after extracting the ZIP:

 

📁 dbc
📁 editor data
📁 edt
📁 lnc

 

STEP 1.

If you are playing an FM23 or FM24 save in FM26, then this fix needs to be also installed in the folders in the below image IN ADDITION TO THOSE INDICATED BELOW the image:

 


OPEN 

Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 26\shared\data\database\db\2600


DELETE only the dbc , edt and lnc folders
 

OPEN 

Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Football Manager 26\shared\data\database\db\2620


DELETE only the dbc , edt and lnc folders

 

Notes: \Program Files (x86)\ could be \Program Files\ depending on your set up.

You have to click “show packaged contents” on the fm.app and game_plugin.bundle folders. This basically means that you need to right-click (or Control + click) on fm.app (or game_plugin.bundle) and choose Show Package Contents that lets you open up the folders inside the app icon.

 

Here’s how to do it on Mac:
1. Open Finder.

Once you’re in both the db/2600 and db/2620 folders, that’s where you drop the real name fix files and don’t forget to restart FM afterwards so the changes take effect.

I am trying to update and launch my game but I keep getting this error (on Mac):

An error occurred while launching this game: Disk write error -

/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Football Manager 26/fm.app/Contents/PlugIns/game_plugin.bundle/Contents/Resources/shared/data/database/db/2600/dbc/uae_players_removed.dbc

 

Has anyone gotten this issue and have a solution to fix it?

are you sure? during my save for example the german national team got changed back to the generated player team even tough when i started the game a few days back it worked fine with your file. So seems like the latest FM patch did change something… 

 

Same with my save

Make sure that the folders that have a screenshot in the main post, look the same on your system. Also, if you started your save game with the beta version of the game, then you need to apply the workaround in the first post to get the name changes to show.

Hello,

 

after updating to version 26.1.1, the file uae_players_removed.dbc was created. 

 

Do I need to delete this file or can it stay?

 

It can stay.

 

By wfm18 16 December 2025 - 08:38 AM UTC 

Would be good to rename the editor files btw to 'sortitoutsi.net FM26 Licenses Fix - Club Name Changes.fmf' to be consistent with the Data Update that we offer.

 

Something worth keeping in mind for next year's version, because changing the naming convention now would mean that people who download future versions would have the same file with different names on their system. That would cause conflicts between them, and plenty of confusion.

 

 

By dynvs 16 December 2025 - 15:22 PM UTC 

When applying the solution to fix the names on database 2600, the portuguese teams loose the link to the B teams, is this a side effect?

 

I'm not aware of this issue, and can't see how it would be related to this fix tbh

Hi guys!

Maybe for future reference:

I've seen that both John Heitinga and Marcel Keizer from the Ajax staff appeared as a duplicate within the game after the Ajax staff fix. I've managed to solve this by deleting both the entries for them through the PGE, and just used the original ID's already present for them and added Ajax and their respective roles on their profile. This fixes them not appearing as duplicates anymore 🙂

John Heitinga - 850009
Marcel Keizer - 2316

Edit: I've also seen that the previous non-playing roles in the staff's history aren't shown as ‘Player’ anymore, so that's a good thing that they seem to have fixed now.

Examples: Başakşehir, Basel, Sivasspor, etc.

 

I've changed the Turkish ones you've mentioned, so thanks for that, but there are over 3,330 club name changes in this fix, so unless you specify which you think merit getting changed, then posts like this aren't very useful.

 

Basel doesn't have any abbreviation in this fix, and I'm not sure what's wrong with this:

I have installed the real name fix following the guide and I see the Serie A teams now have all the correct names (AC Milan, Inter…) except for the Napoli team which remains named as Parthenope: what could be the mistake?

 

Thank you!

Are you playing in the English language? Did you apply the fix before or after starting your save game?

Yes I play with the English language.

 

However, I think I have found the issue: to test the fix installation I selected the “Quick Start Career” option, where some names were not applied (Napoli/Parthenope, Real Betis/Real Hispalis).

Afterwards I have selected the “Advanced Setup Career” to choose the leagues of my game, and the names were correct (ex: Napoli is there instead of Parthenope).

Could this be the reason? It seems working differently on the quick start. I will play with the advanced setup, anyway.

 

As a side note, quite bad decision from SI to use the short names everywhere, since Atlético Madrid is now simply named Atlético…

Quick start is effectively a pre-existing save-game, so some changes will not work, in fact.

You're running an old version of the fix, from before this was corrected.
