Some more images of the new lighting in stadiums: 

Some stadiums are not having crowds since they are prepared for the v2 of crowds. 

There is, if you wish to use that, then make sure to remove everything in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 26\BepInEx\plugins folder except for NoRain.dll. 

Celtic there is late night, but here's some more and keep in mind I have to bake them all individually: 

Thing that I need people to understand is it's not just pressing a button and it will work for everything. I need to manually adjust light sources, tweak, readjust and then wait 15 minutes for every run to test small tweaks. It takes time. I am also learning still, and I am sure the stadium will be good in a week or two. Just remain patient 🙂

Lifesaver!! Thank you so much for making a summery of all that 🫡😁

Showing some of the recent additions on the lights: 

Seen all the messages, don't worry everyone. Please do realize that I am one person who also still goes to Uni and works for my own organization. I appreciate everyone of course, but I also need to balance everything. Sorry to hear this is a step back for some of you. I am working on it again. 

Hey, please close the game, cut the installed files and place in a temporary folder. Then start the game and play a game, save it and close fm. 

Then reinstall the stadiums and they should work. 

Hopefully that works for you as well as it did for everyone else 🤜

Hey, both are mine 😉 but yeah you can use both at the same time!

Thank you! I'll put it on the to-do list

Keep 1.3 and install 1.4 on top of it

I believe it still does that yes, but you can cut the plugin and paste somewhere else to try it out for yourself. Or look in the BepInEx/Config folder to see the no rain config.

Completely disabled. Is a toggle feature something you lot would like to see? If so, then let me know! 

Hi Rich, this can happen sometimes. Best thing to do is to close the game, remove the files you added by cutting them and pasting somewhere else, open up the game, play a match, save, close the game and reinstall. 

UPDATE OUT!

Hopefully at some point 🤞

Tomorrow as time has not been kind to me this week 😀

Hey dude, thanks for the compliment. Now that most issues have been sorted I am looking at adding them in proper yes. 

Thanks all for sticking with it! 

You can turn the no rain off by deleting the plugin in the FM26 installation folder/BepInEx/Plugins/No-Rain.dll

FM26 Stadium Megapack Version 1.4 Patch Notes

Hey everyone, thank you so much for the continued support! This last week has been pretty hectic, but I have been able to add multiple fixes regardless. The focus this week was on lighting and finally fixing the bug that has been pestering me for weeks. There have also been small reworks on a few existing stadiums. This will not be a rebuild of the house, but slight tweaks.

Performance/Visuals:

• No significant performance gains made.
• Custom Pitch Shader being rolled out and want to gauge feedback.
  • Custom skyboxes. THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL. Should you have issues, please consult the troubleshooting below!

Crowds:

• No significant gains made on crowds that are ready to go public yet.
  • I am working on a V2 of the crowds.

Lighting:

• Mostly fixed the biggest issue and that is pitch black games. From now, stadiums without custom lighting will at least look sort of illuminated (albeit without the shadows for now) and as I am working lighting into my workflow this will change over time!
• Added 4 different global lighting based on time of day. 
  • 12:00-15:00 -> Noon Brighter and more sunlight, sun shows more pitch. 
  • 15:01-17:30 -> Afternoon Sun stands a bit lower, showing slightly less of pitch. Less intense too. 
  • 17:31-19:00 -> Evening Golden hour type sunsets. 
  • 19:01-22:00 -> Night Cold lighting, mainly reliant on inbuilt lights.
• Added a few more custom lightmaps to Ligue 1 and La Liga, but not as many as I liked.
• Added config for lighting allowing to change intensity of lights in timeslots based on what you fancy.

Weather:

• As stated before, I have now developed a No Rain plugin which permanently disables the rain visuals. It will give a bit of a performance boost and can be turned off if you wish to do so.

Added/Revisited stadiums:

• Sao Januario (Vasco da Gama)
• Morumbi (Sao Paulo)
• Stadium of Light (Sunderland)
• Besiktas Park (Besiktas)
• RAMS Park (Galatasaray)
• Centennial Atatürk Stadium (Bursaspor)
• Papara Park (Trabzonspor)
• Sukru Saracoglu Stadium (Fenerbahce)
• Vila Belmiro (Santos)
• Allianz Parque (Palmeiras)
• Neo Quimica Arena (Corinthians)

Hi Aaran, I sadly have not encountered this and therefore cannot provide support there. Does it also happen without the hotfix? 

Salut, merci pour ces mots très gentils ! Je suis super content d'apprendre que la foule te convient mieux maintenant 😀

Je suis toujours ouvert aux commentaires concernant le Roazhon Park, alors n'hésite pas à m'envoyer un message privé et j'y jetterai un œil lors de ma prochaine visite au stade 😀

Hey all, not had the happiest of weeks, so not replied too much.

I have read all feedback and am working on it from the shadows (San Siro has them). 

@MB#22 hey mate, I have seen them all and really appreciate this level of feedback. I will look into this when I am back 😄

Thanks for the feedback everyone! Will look into it as I get back tomorrow 😀

Hey, thanks for the nice words! Already been notified about it and will work on it in a week or two

Hallo, vielen Dank für die netten Worte! Ich kümmere mich bereits darum und werde später darüber berichten 🙂

Thank you!! I'm already working at a v2 for the crowds 😀
