I suggest everybody clicks the "Notify me when updated" button to receive an email when the file is updated/amended in the future.
This file will need to be re-applied if/when patches/updates are released and when the full game comes out 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 patches come out.
Some of these changes, ESPECIALLY THE CLUB NAMES, may not apply in FMT or in existing save-games. There's a workaround for that in the first post.
The sortitoutsi real names fix changes the instances of fake names in Football Manager 2017 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 and Japanese National teams don't call up real players. These are fully save-game compatible.
There is also a club name changes file, which changes the names of clubs in a way which ensures that any nicknames entered in the default database are retained. This file includes the proper names for German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French clubs to circumvent licensing restrictions. It also adds real-life media and journalists, encompassing most major footballing nations and continents. Finally, it includes a small file which corrects the 3-Letter competition names to correspond with any changes made in the lnc files. For all the files in this paragraph to work, however, you will need to start a new game.

i already did but its the same

As indicated in that conversation, you will also need the also change the editor data file accordingly. Additionally, if the fix was applied after starting a save game, then I'm afraid it cannot be edited. You'll either have to start a new game or stay as is.

And yes post above made by @Octopuzz is correct
Here is the new UIDs
23398468 for Thailand Champions Cup,

Was speaking to @Octopuzz via PM about this already
I'll take those changes on board in the next version of the file, although I don't think I'll release another version of this file any time soon.
In the meantime, it's quite easy for you (and anybody else) to open the file with Notepad and replace the Thailand section with the above
Octopuzz
Thanks for update.
@Bram Carella
You have DB Indonesia Super League new update ?

Couldn't wait as I started a new game however I only copied the files onto the 1730 file and it is working fine
mons
That's where the files need to be installed, as indicated in the installation instructions contained within the download. I've changed the text in the main post to make it clear where things need to go.
bluebirdjon
Thanks all working fine now

I'm afraid it looks to me like you haven't installed the files correctly. Can I see screenshots of your dbc/permanent folders?
Jimmyrh94
mons
Yes to your above query.
Vawkes
Says I need to provide administrator permission to delete folders.
I've been fiddling around with permissions all afternoon, but cannot find away to delete the folders.
Please help!
explosivewinger
Thanks for the update @mons
mons
Change your user permissions.
If that still doesn't work, instead of deleting the folders, delete the contents and replace them with the respective contents from this folder.
mons
No worries - thank you and all those who provide me info, especially those in the non-mainstream leagues; keep the info coming
Vawkes
Thank you.
This workaround worked!
lloydybrudenell
All 17.. folders have the following (pic)
mons
The installation instructions quite clearly state that you have to delete the dbc folder (and also the edt and lnc folders) within each respective 17.. folder before placing the one in this download instead. You do not appear to have done so. Whether you merged it or did something completely different, I don't know.
I'm also not sure why the brazil_kits.dbc and Licensing2.dbc files are dated 6th April 2016, when we're in March 2017
lloydybrudenell
That's odd i did delete them all and copied the new ones. As to the date I have no idea why! I'll delete all again and start again!
lloydybrudenell
I re-added them and the date still saysapril 2016 or them files
mons
That's why I recommend that you have to do the installation process of this download every time SI release a new patch. As you have just noticed, it may be the case that some of the files are recreated automatically when that happens.
mons
Delete the dbc folder and put the one from this download instead. If you do so, those 2 files should not be there any longer. It's really a simple enough process.
Repeat this procedure for all the dbc, edt and lnc folders in 1700-1730.
lloydybrudenell
Will do, for some reason those 2 April ones just kept appearing xD I've deleted them again. Works fine now. Ta very muchly!
mons
You're welcome. I can't stress enough that you need to repeat the process in all 5 of the 17.. folders, otherwise it won't work...
lloydybrudenell
Noticed one thing. Flamengo are called Flemish. Just me?
mons
Are you sure you applied the fixes for all the folders before starting a new game? Iirc that happens when you don't.
If you don't make sure you follow the reasonably straightforward instructions to the letter, despite repeatedly being told to do so, then you can't expect the file to work as intended.
Are you verifying the game cache from Steam after installing these files perchance?
