Thanks for your response. Just a quick one. When I run the file on FM24 starting in 2025/26 (28/08/2025) it seems the loans have ended/never started at all. I'm not technical at all but is there an old version of the file that might help? cc @M.C 

Im not sure, sorry. This would be a question for Admin as they would have any older versions of the file. @Footygamer

This is incorrect as hes been added to the womens team, not the mens. It shows as mens here but ingame hes on the womens team.

The "fixed" versions of the countries I included, even if only a few, because all the results are forced as in real life. Of course, you can use the fixed ones and then load the normal ones for other countries. It all depends on how you organize your save.

Great, thank you. I will be playing in Italy myself but want the promotions/relegation etc to be correct in the other main leagues also. 

 

If I can use the fixed files and some of the normal ones also then thats perfect. 

 

Cheers

The "normal" version features the actual league and super cup results, including the winners.
The "fixed" versions, where possible with this editor method, feature the forced results of the winners of the national cups, super cups, and any playoffs/playouts. Plus promotions from non-playable divisions.

 

Thanks for the info. 

 

Which would be best to use if im wanting to start at the 2026/2027 season please?

@marcodoglio94 Great work as always with these files.

 

Apologies if this is a stupid question……what is different from the standard real fixtures/results files to the new fixed files please?

 

Thanks

Me too. Maybe it's your theme? Switch back to the default theme and make sure you click "Reload Theme". That's how I fixed my black background problem; after that, I really don't have any other solutions.

 

I've got it working, looks great. I just deleted all my skins and started again with the art folder 🙂

Yes, and after reloading your skin, watch the slow-motion replay of the goal; your stadium should appear.

 

Still cant get it to work unfortunately. Could my display settings be affecting anything? I have my scale at 100%.

I also had the black background problem; it's a bug in the theme. I went into the preferences-→ reload skin, and now everything works correctly.

 

Reload the skin after starting a match?

That's strange. As a last resort, send me a screenshot of your file's location so I can check if there's a problem… otherwise, it's a real shame

 

No problem, just done that. Thanks again.

I think I sent the wrong file; try again with this one, it is sent directly to DDS.

 

Just downloaded and still doesn't work unfortunately. Thanks for your help but seems its just not going to be.

I have yes. Its just black all around it. Im using a skin, would that effect it?

I have a skin too, and it works.
My screen resolution is 1920x1080, what about yours?

And double-check that the Sampdoria file is a DDS file and not a PNG.

 

Its 1920x1200. Yes its 100% a DDS file.

Did you place the file like this?

The Sampdoria stadium photo should be named "match_background".

I don't know how to send a DDS file, so I'm sending you the PNG. https://postimg.cc/cg8hB7yv

Download the PNG file and then convert it to DDS here: https://convertio.co/fr/png-dds/

Vous pourrez ensuite l'utiliser dans le dossier : Football Manager 2024 → art → shared textures

Cant get this to show in game unfortunately. Followed the instructions but doesn't work. Any idea what could be the issue please?

Okay, so I practiced by building Sampdoria's stadium. My goal was to do this it's incredible

, but I didn't succeed because in the game you can't place the pitch wherever you want.

 

In-game I managed to do this 

 

That still looks great 😀 Shame about the first image as that looks perfect. 

 

How can I add this to my game please? 

 

Cheers

Hello,

 

I have a transfer update database. Both transfers and loans included. It seems to be made for playing with 25/26 transfer and loans, but on the 23/24 timeline. So all loans and transfer are executed two years early compared to the 25/26 timeline, which I play on.

Is there a way for me to bulk edit loan and transfer dates to reflect the 25/26 execution date, instead of the current 23/24 execution date?

 

Best regards.

 

Yes, from this link.

Hi,

 

Is it possible this would be updated again in the future for people still playing FM24? 🙂

Hi, do you still work on this or was it to keep for personal use?

 

I was looking for a Sampdoria (Luigi Ferraris Stadium) one but other than this thread, I cant seem to find any other creators of the 2d stadiums. 

 

Great work on what ive seen from some of the images 🙂

@Bryan Cheetham what issues are you having with the no dates file? I am not aware of anyone reporting any.

 

I was getting French youngsters, around 16-18 years old as free agents who should still be at there clubs. I had numerous other files plus the real fixtures/results loaded aswel though, so could be any of them. I think what was happening though with the game dates being changed, it was releasing players who possibly didn't have a contract expiry date. Im going to stick with FM26 anyway & if nobody else has reported it, then its possibly one of the other files I have.

The FM26 data update says updated at 18 16pm (The one I downloaded) but the Contracts & New People files  were last updated over 1 hour ago & the Attributes file 1 hour hour ago. 

 

Is it set like that purposely or is it an error as what people are downloading does not have anything updated in the last 60-75 minutes included. 

 

Ive attached photo showing what it says on the 18 16pm update download.

I'm pretty sure these were fixed on April 26th, are you 100% sure they're still happening?

Sorry for the slow reply I went on holiday for a week.

 

No problem. 

 

Just downloaded latest update and check my 3 examples from above. Seems to be fixed now. Ive come away from FM24 again though as too many data issues (I was using the no date changes file, so its possibly to do with that), either way im going to persevere with FM26 as there seems to be less issues with that 😀
