Correct on all accounts.

It won't count towards the trophy count, but you can use the expansion. As long as it does not alter the finances and ability of players then it i all fine.


Ok thanks.

I'll start it now with Berwick Rangers I think. Looks like it'll be a tough task with them...

@Cymro If I was to use an expansion, I'd probably think of using this file (although I'm open to using a different one, I just found that on the workshop). Would that be acceptable or if not, would my other suggestion comply with the rules?

Below is the list of playable trophy's within the game when you load all the home nations.(Downloaded competitions and expansions are not allowed)


After trying this a few years ago and completing all of Ireland before giving up I've decided to give it another go.

I just wanted to clarify a couple of things about this part of the rules. Does this mean you can't use any expansion or just that expansions don't count towards the 36 trophies?

I was thinking of starting with a db that activates levels 7 and 8 in England so that I could see how Hereford progress back through the leagues over the years. I don't mind using a db that doesn't edit the FA Cup and Trophy if that is an issue and I'm happy not to manage teams that started in these leagues if that is also an issue.
If using any expansion is an issue then what about simply swapping Hereford with Cinderford (it's all but mathematically guaranteed that we'll be swapping places at the end of this season anyway as we're 13 points clear at the top and they're 12 points from safety). That way Hereford could get promoted into the Conference North in the same random way any other club in the 7th tier can.

Also, I assume as the rules only specify downloaded competitions and expansions I'm fine to use the Sortitoutsi transfer/contracts data update?

@Sir TAVARES He has now moved back to Merthyr. It is probably better to just disable this than to make a new transfer as it will keep his contract details as they are in the vanilla game this way.

Hereford's third kit appears to be missing from the file. Here are some pictures of it:

Alastairhufc - Unfortunately not mate - not that I can figure out anyway.


I guessed not. Thanks for making this file anyway.

I wish I'd known it existed in previous years, my game always looked weird with some kits in SS style then a load of standard default kits.

I think I posted this in the wrong thread the other day (this thread gave an error message). Apologies for reposting it in here.

Firstly, apologies if this logo has been done already. I don't have the latest patch but I am assuming it hasn't been made because there is no badge showing on the Hereford FC db page.

http://www.herefordfc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/HFC-logo-900px-400x265.jpg


That is the badge for Hereford FC (the Hereford United pheonix club). The UID is 82070144. Some websites might show a slightly different badge as the one that won the fans vote was tweaked after fan feedback.

As you are updating the pack now I just thought I'd make sure you are aware of what the Hereford FC badge is (a lot of websites incorrectly have the first draft of the badge instead of the final version).

Thanks for doing these packs, your work is appreciated.

Upside Down England

In this database the Premiership and Championship teams have been swapped with the teams from Skrill North and South divisions. The bottom ten from each regional division as of 31/1/14 were put into the Premiership while the top 12 from each were placed into the Championship. The League 1 teams were also swapped with the Skrill Premier teams.

In Season 1, Gosport Borough, Dorchester Town and Workington will play in the Champions League Group stage while Gloucester City will enter in the Champions League Play-off Round. Witehawk will enter the Europa League in the Group stage, Oxford City in the Play-off Round and Tonbridge Angels in the Third Qualifying Round.

I have tested this up to 1/7/18 without problem.

The file can be downloaded on the Steam Workshop.


If you have any feedback then post it here.

#138366 Specified Fixtures - TV Type and Text Files
Alastairhufc

I am trying to set specified fixtures and I have come across two issues.

TV Type
I notice the options are Blank, None, Satellite, Pay per view, National and Do Not Televise.

Does choosing Satellite, Pay per View or National make a difference in game? I assume not because money is split between all the teams.
Does choosing Blank, None or Do Not Televise make a difference as well?
Can some one please help me with these questions.

I assume for England; Sky = Satellite, BT Sport = Satellite and BBC/ITV/Channel 5 = National. Is this right?


Text Files
I notice you can import fixtures from a text file in the format "Date" "Time" "Team" "Team" 3 1.

What type of text file is it? I tried the obvious extensions (.txt and .csv).

I assume I can make one in excel as it would be easier than the editor.


Also, is it possible to use specified fixtures (or advanced rules) for cup competitions? For example, to make the real FA Cup draw.


Thanks in advance for the help,
Alastair
#137056 Setting a club to enter adminstration

There is a tick box in the editor on the club details page saying "in administration" with dates under neath that for the transfer embargo date. You won't be able to make them go into admin on a particular day, though.


Thanks for your reply.

That is a shame. Luckily our directors paid the tax bill so we avoided administration. I may try it from the start of the season for a bit of fun though.

Hereford United currently have a transfer embargo which stated earlier his month and they will probably enter administration next Monday (possibly the best case scenario).

Is there a way I can set administration to start on that date. I tried putting a big debt to start and end on that date but it just starts monthly payments from that date.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

I'm not sure if this is the correct thread but is there league/nation packs anywhere? I only want the English ones and possibly the national flags/logos so I wondered if they were available without getting the whole pack.

I was also wondering how big the complete pack is (I doubt I will get it but just so I know) I had it on my old computer but deleted it, I remember it was several GB.
