Hi everyone!
Real Fixture & Results are back!
First of all, I wanted to thank you for the support, feedback, and changes you've suggested over the past few months for the previous project.
Achieving these numbers was by no means a given!
KEY FEATURES
- Real Fixture & Results
- Fix date for national cups
- Playable B teams where they are not already in the original database (e.g. Italy)
TWO DIFFERENT MODES
- Normal Real Fixture & Results: The classic real fixtures & results mode you used until the last update with the addition of the winners of the super cups played in July-August.
- Only Fixture: The mode where there are fixtures and you can start with the league start date of the chosen nation like a normal career.
COMMON ISSUE
If you use "Continue Game Timeout" the game may decide to simulate the start date during loading, taking you to a later date.
To avoid this, simply:
- Disable "Continue Game Timeout" in preferences, before creating a new game.
- Create your game to use real results.
- As soon as you've saved the first time, re-enable in preferences "Continue Game Timeout."

Have you ever put any database files into the Steam Deck for FM26? Use that for the path, unfortunately I don't have a Steam Deck so I found this as the path.
AML
Hi Marco, thank you for the files. Could you tell me how to update results on my own? Wanted to update the 4 Serie A games from the last two days (Milan, Como etc) but cannot find it. When I go to basic rules only results up to end of October are filled out and when I am in advanced rules only I can only find fixtures for the year but no results are filled in yet at all.
Thanks
marcodoglio94
Hi! If you open my file, you'll still find them to be entered, but they'll be added in the next update since you can only start on a Monday, and from the date you choose onward, it's the game that simulates, not the entered results.
The results are in the advanced rules for Serie A, and you'll find a rule that ends with "league matches." or “Partite Campionato” since I don't know if the label is translated based on the editor's language.
AML
Oh I see, I found them in the partite campionato but all results seemed to be empty so I thought that's not it. I didn't have the details panel turned so did not see them in there. Found it now, thank you so much
AML
Also, can you tell me how you did the supercups? Can something like this be done for national cups too, for champions league? Thanks
marcodoglio94
For cups, this isn't possible, and for Champions Leagues, Europa Leagues, and Conferences, nothing can be done at the moment. I'm waiting for an editor update due to a reported bug.
DanielC83
On Step #4, when I go and remove Seychelles from view only, it also changes the start date back to a different leagues start date, I can't keep the start date in January 2026 when I remove Seychelles from ‘View Only’
marcodoglio94
Hi!
You need to remove it once the game is already running and you're on day one. If you remove it before creating the game, it's normal for the starter date not to appear.

UPDATE 21/1/26
Additions/Updates:
Fix:

_January_2026Seychelle, 19/1/26Do not include starter dates, just start the career with the dates of the chosen country as in a normal career.
Kalop
NOTE: For leagues that run from April to November, you should select the day or week immediately after the final matchday as the start date. From my experience with the Norwegian league, I set the start date to December 15th (since the league had not reset yet), because starting on December 11th causes the game to crash ; an issue that has also been reported by other users.
Markus Valdersnes
I downloaded the file but didnt get the seychelles league. Cant find it in the folder, someone help?
marcodoglio94
For leagues from April to November, I've encountered a lot of problems. The editor returns errors due to dates it says aren't within the range, but they actually are, so there's a fundamental problem.
For Norway, I'll check the file and let you know if I can avoid the crash. In any case, for those types of leagues, always use only the Monday after the last match day, to ensure it doesn't immediately reset the competition.
marcodoglio94
You can find it in this path:
FM26 Real Fixture & Results 2025-26 [21-1-2026] → Normal Real Fixture & Results → Start Date
And inside here you will find all the files and if you insert them, you will unlock the Seychelles as a country.
marcodoglio94
UPDATE 28/1/26
Additions/Updates:
I analyzed the leagues from April to November, and they didn't freeze for me, nor did the game crash when using the correct starter dates.
The only problem, one I've been reporting for a while, is that on certain dates, if you use the automatic advancement option, it starts you from a different date, but this is resolved as follows:
Disable the option before starting a new save, start it, and when you save for the first time, restore it.
This way, you can be sure that you won't have any problems with all dates.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
Due to today's update on 9 March, the files currently in the package cannot be used if you select the Football Manager 2026.2 database.
To start a career with the updated Real Fixtures & Results, please wait for the release of the new update scheduled for Thursday-Friday (12-13 March), as I have to redo the files from scratch because many countries have undergone major changes, including in the structures of the various leagues.
So if you are unable to create a new save with my files at the moment, this is normal and you are not doing anything wrong.

Tomorrow morning I'll release a hotfix for Germany and France because, quite simply, I placed an older version of the two files in the folder without any corrections I had to make.
I apologize for the inconvenience 🙏
KLeppy27
Does this only work if I have the game editor? I try loading up the files but I get a red notification error that says the files have not been verified?
