so we should be able to get all squads with the correct players/staff/finances promotion/relegation
continental qualification etc etc
The finish would be to have the correct set of fixtures for at least the major leagues to share in the community
So for this I would need some helpers to assist I will do the EPL and need others to take on the other leagues, one league per person
La Liga
Seria A
Bundesliga
Ligue 1
Liga Nos
Eredivsie
A pointer for users wanting to assist this isnt like normally setting up real fixtures where we can use the exact correct dates as they are for the 2019/20 calendar
These files will be for starting the game in 2018 as if it is 2019 so the example below shows the first game of the EPL season is Liverpool v Norwich (this in real life kicks of 2000 hrs on Friday 9th August 2019) using 2018 start date it will now be the 10/8/18
For the file to be verified you also need to make sure the correct teams are in the league you are editing
eg in EPL Cardiff/Fulhum/Hudds are swapped with promoted teams

The promotions to Liga 123 are: Racing Santander, Fuenlabrada, Mirandés and Ponferradina.
Thank you so much.

As said I will do the EPL for this to work others have to step up and make it a community driven project
with it shared out it is manageable and the initial suggestion is just the major leagues
if users want to do some lower leagues as well that is great it is your choice

Yes in editor you can either do it via normal or advanced rules
kingrobbo
tick use specific fixtures-
then add them here
or advanced rues here- (NB add year you want the rules to cover there too)
kingrobbo
as initially stated this will be community driven if there is no help it wont happen...so far no one has offered to do anything
so unless that changes this wont be added to the update
Dmitri-K
And what if you set the dates to 2019?

I remember username frankthetank87 who had made the real fixtures/results for few different Football Managers of last few years, mention that he had an easy method for creating new fixture/result lists for FM each year. He has done them for many different leagues of many different nations, so apparently he's got some kind of quick way of compiling the new fixture lists and turning them into the form required by FM. I wonder if he could be of help on this matter?
kingrobbo
then it wont work the game/this/our files are for 2018 start date
kingrobbo
I know how to do that mate it is explained above why it cant be done that way
just to clarify again
the fixtures are for the 19/20 season therefore to use the method Frank does you can make real fixtures with script /in.txt file: but the fixtures to copy over will be "03/8/2019" "1630" "680" "630" or ''08/03/2020 etc etc
The file/s here are to start the game as normal ie 2018 so the 19/20 fixtures cant be copied as they have to be back engineered for the year eg 2019 becomes 2018 and 2020 is 2019....also and here is the crux the days change too so a fixture set up in 2020 for a Saturday moves to a Friday when you change the year,
so it becomes a mess thus having to do it in the editor and the need for community to get involved if they want it
It is something if shared out it will be fine, the staff here do more than enough as it is, but I am prepared to do the EPL
but I envisage that this project will be shelved
re Frank he is great at putting the fixtures out (as per the method I state above) but he only pops up occasionally and he has done more than enough over the years with the fixtures....it would be great if he has a workaround as I cant get it to work his way as there are too many issues to resolve that you end up with fixtures on the wrong day etc
(when you have all data in excel its easy to make xml with real fixtures - or any other data. 6000 clubs in 3 seconds once you have the prep sorted out , but that sadly aint working for this... but if someone has a method of doing this easily please pass it on)
The idea was also to get the community involved to give something back and to share here
Dmitri-K
"22/7/2018" "1400" "1902" "130870" 2 1
Where
"22/7/2018" - day/month/year
"1400" - time (14:00)
"1902" - home team id
"130870" - away team id
2 - score home
1 - score away
This looks pretty simple.
And another question: is it possible to change dates for relegation/promotion play-off?
kingrobbo
yes thanks I know that I have said that above I have created real fixtures before
create the file mate using the real 2019 fixtures see where you end up, and report back here please with your findings
Dmitri-K
I am full of optimism, and I am confident that I will succeed.
kingrobbo
that is brilliant if you do get it working I will check it as well I have a high end system and can run through a season pretty quickly as the other issue is the next season not starting sometimes when you use real fixtures so I can test the file rapidly(using a custom start date can give false info you have to sim the full season to be sure)
cheers
kingrobbo
via advanced rules
it will be under stages for comp(usually league then under that it will be called a cup something like 'rele'
select that then the rounds
and amend the dates section as per screenshot
kingrobbo
kingrobbo
Getting any joy with it ?
kingrobbo
That is excellent news when you are ready pop a link via PM I can test in game to see if there are any issues and can work with you on fixes if you want

league playing final round of games on a wednesday 4 days before they are due to take place
and schedule shows final game was moved to 12/5/19 in the file it is 19/5/19
kingrobbo
will see what can be done re that final round of fixtures
kingrobbo
kingrobbo
round 38 is set for that date
kingrobbo
either before the last round(probably resulting in a mid week catch up fixture for the team/s who reach the final )
or after season ends so would be 26/5/19 which would result in any team involved having 5 days rest before a possible champions league final or 3 if they made Europa so best option I am unsure at this stage
Dmitri-K
If we want real fixtures for leagues, we need to make real fixtures for cups also.
Do you need a file for the fixtures? I wanted to upload it this way, but it seems there's no way to attach files to the message here. So I decided to put all the text into the spoiler.
kingrobbo
No we don't it's only slight adjustments to the cup dates as I have shown it's because we are shoe horning fixtures for a different year
I have XML files and will test later I am on Android now so unable to test

Can you make 2 Bundesliga too please?
