Ignore this, I didn't see the most recent addition. My bad.

EDIT: Never mind I found it.

I thought I had done that already but it turns out I haven't. I do have the 2002/03 format though. It shouldn't be too hard to create an alternate for 03/04 so I'll note it down.

That's much better. I had tried changing the resolution in the link but it didn't work, so I'll remember that in future. Thanks for the heads up.

Hi there. I'm hoping to get started on this again for FM23 within the next couple of months if possible, which is admittedly later than usual. Better late than never though.

@kingrobbo Hi mate. All is well thanks, just been pretty busy over the last couple of months.

I haven't had a chance to look around in the editor yet. Just got the game yesterday but I'll be taking a look at things towards the end of the month when I start working on converting my files over from FM21. The Super League gave me a load of problems with it being a tier above the Champions League, for whatever reason I'm still not sure why. Glad to see that the method of banning the teams from a competition still works though, that should prove useful.

One potential problem for competitions like the Intertoto Cup I've found over the years can be that a certain nation's season may not have finished in time for the new season of the Intertoto Cup's starting date. As a result it means that teams from that specific nation are left out and then replaced with teams such as Barcelona and Real Madrid etc, or even worse the entire competition just doesn't happen lol.

For the youth competition I've found that you need to be super specific with every single nation that takes part in it. For example in the Teams section in the editor you need to add a rule for every single nation which will grab either an U21 side, an U23 side, an U18 side, an U19 side, an U20 side, or a B team (depending on what that nation tends to use). That way the teams in the youth tournament should show up as “Crystal Palace U18s” etc.

Hope this is of some help to you bud.

Thanks a lot. I'm so glad I asked first lol, I had downloaded the full pack so I would have probably overwritten all of the FM21 updates up to 13.15.

Regarding the 2022.00 download with it being a base file, do I just need to overwrite all images in the faces folder as per usual?

Sure, I can change the starting year for you.

Do you have other existing graphics installed? There should be a config file in each folder you have for your existing graphics and you'll need to add a line of code to those with the ID of each competition. To find the competition ID you can activate this in your preferences.

The skin I'm using is FLUT Skin Dark.

@kingrobbo 

Have you set the fixture priority in the Dates tab under the group schedule to highest? I never realised until recently that there's a priority box on that page if you scroll further along but it may help ensure the fixtures are played as intended at the correct time. Also have you set the stadium rule to “Host”? There may be more worth looking at inside of the Stadium Rules near the bottom of the list too.

One other thing I've learned that works for group fixtures too is setting a pre-made fixture date for the end of your group stage and then applying that date for the final group fixture in the “General” tab under the group schedule.

Yeah they're active in file #57 (one of the 1970's throwback files).

Much thanks mate. A lot of hours have gone into the latest update but hopefully people can get a good run out of it until the next game is released.

Thanks a lot for the pin as well 😀

Could somebody make these 2 European Super League logos into metallic for me please?

 

Replied to the thread mate.

Unfortunately the colour bands are linked to the domestic league's qualification rules instead of the continental file. This means if you want each league to show the accurate amount of qualification places you'd have to edit the nation rules for each country in Europe so that they match up with the continental file you're using. That's why I left the qualification places blank in my UEFA project because I have so many different variants.

Also explained the “Show Continental Cup Seedings” option. That is definitely bugged as it doesn't show up this year for continental competitions but it does for international ones.

@kingrobbo Am I right in thinking you were working on the Super League? If so is everything up and running for it?

Excellent. Will definitely give this a download when it's ready.

When recreating the competitions from scratch you can select the nation rankings and determine how many teams are allocated per nation, but it unfortunately won't change each year based on coefficients - it would have to be set in stone. I've recreated pretty much all of the old UEFA competition formats dating back to the 1970's in my UEFA Revival project for FM20 (currently trying to convert the files over for FM21) but I will try to add your idea as a new file.

Brilliant work mate. Would it not be easier to have the Euros in 2020 and just ignore that it will be held in 2021 in real life? Maybe bring back the date of the 2022 World Cup to a regular summer schedule too?

I'm not too familiar with the process for international competition rules, but I would have thought that it could be done the same way using the advanced rules in the editor. The qualifiers would be the tough part to figure out I'd imagine with there being different regions etc.
