Brilliant as always James. Are the Development Leagues for youth teams also in there?
Thanks
jreid0784
Yep they are. All the development teams are in the correct leagues

Are the real SPFL fixtures still in use? I know that, on previous Scottish pyramid databases, it hasn't been possible to keep the real fixtures.
jreid0784
Yeah they should all be fine
jreid0784
Update coming tomorrow
kieran mowatt
will you be doing a welfare leagues database this year

Is there anyway to make the B Teams playable? Thanks for all the hard work on this!
jreid0784
I'm working on that at the moment. Takes a bit of time with adding all the teams and comps though. Should be available in the next couple of weeks hopefully.
jreid0784
Not that I'm aware of. I'll look into it thought
Fire86Tiger
Thanks very much and don't go out your way, only if you have time. I'll check other forums and stuff as well.
Tommy Hughes
Great job, thank you!

James, with Harmony Row becoming Giffnock Soccer Centre (Giffnock SC) next season, is it just a case of loading your fmf in the editor, and updating the club details, colours etc. and saving if I want to have them appear as GSC in game straight away?

The Under 20s will change from Harmony Row to Giffnock SC too next season.
Shame to see Harmony Row go at that level, always had a great reputation in Glasgow. That said, GSC are the biggest youth football club in the country, and their new place is some setup.
Thanks
jreid0784
Aye thats a shame to hear. Yeah just change the details, validate and should be good to go. I'll maybe update the database if i can to reflect that.
Joe5p
Got that sorted James, thanks.
For the B teams, is there an easy way to make the fact they play in the Lowland League extend beyond the one season so it remains in place for the duration of a save?
Cheers

does this work with the 23.4 update?
jreid0784
Yeah, if you go into the pre game editor, advanced rules, lowland league, stages and teams you'll find the b teams there. Remove the setting for end year date and re validate. That should do it. I'm going to do that anyway as I just saw they've been kept for at least next season
jreid0784
Yeah, I'm running it just now with the update
Si88
Hey folks, am I being dumb? Probably. I can't seem to use the file with 23.04, and when I try to run it on an older database I can't get lower than tier 5 😢

Hi James,
Another name change in case you release an update with promotion/relegation at season end and before FM24. Rossvale from Division 1 are now going to be known as Caledonian Locomotives FC from season 23/24 onwards. The other Rossvale in Division 4 are not changing as far as I can tell as they are a breakaway from the original Division 1 side.
Can find evidence on the Inverness Caley Thistle statement, as ICT had objected to the originally proposed name change which has been shelved and replaced with Caledonian Locomotives FC.

Thanks
