as far as i know you can't play that version of fm touch on your phone or tablet, the fm touch you get with the full game is pc only, you have to buy a seperate version of fm touch to play on other devices...

yeah a 1050 can easily handle fm17 on high, its not a graphically demanding game. gtx 1050 can run all the latest games so fm17 will be a piece of cake. you can have a look at a review and benchmarks for the 1050 ti 4gb here, bear in mind that the msi 1050 ti is the strongest 1050 on the market as far as i am aware, hence the higher price compared to the others: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-review those fps numbers are on ultra or very high settings, you can improve the fps in those games by lowering the graphics a bit, but you won't need to do that with fm, just with the most graphically demanding games. if you want to play the most demanding games on ultra with a smooth 60+ fps you'll need at least a 1060 or another similarly powerful card, but for fm it won't be a problem...

have a look at the gtx 1050 cards that just came out, they come in 2gb and 4gb models, it will easily handle fm plus you can play lots of other games with it, i would recommend a 4gb one. here are some of them on newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007709%20601273511%20601273503 i would also suggest getting some more ram to go with it...

what is your motherboard please?

i would need to know the specs of your computer so i can recommend a compatible card, minimum system requirements are here, http://www.footballmanager.com/manual/fm2016/introduction/system-requirements. Are there other games you want to play or is it just fm?

i will definitely be following this, hopefully you can keep it going, i know the forum is very quiet these days but theres still a few regulars here

no problem, glad i could help

the data files you are using are not just a transfer update, moving players from one club to another would not cause league fixtures to become corrupted. if you look at the screenshot that you posted of the data files you are using you will see that loads of other changes have been made to the database also and you have enabled all of them, the problem is caused by one of those other changes that have been made. i can't tell you exactly which one is the culprit, i wasn't there supervising the guy while he was editing the database so how would i know. disable all the changes you don't need and just use the updated transfers if your worried about it happening again in your next save.

just on a side note, player attributes have also been edited in those data files and are certain to be wildly inaccurate as they are just the opinion of one person that plays the game. i would rather put my trust in the attribute ratings provided by the 1000+ pro scouts around the world employed by si to watch players in person then the guy who created that data file, so i would suggest disabling those changes also...

thats unlucky, it happens sometimes when using user created editor files, your not the only person that it happens to. if you are determined to continue with that save your only option is to remove that league from the database and then add it again at a later date, doing that will reset the league...

This video from doctorbenjy takes a closer look at some of the screens, not a lot to see at this stage but interesting none the less.

thats a tough job competing against the big two in spain, hopefully you can upset the odds...

i agree with this, i haven't even touched the feature once, i don't understand why they included it in its current state, hopefully it is vastly improved for fm17...

you probably need to change the resolution the game runs at

i just listened to one of the podcasts, the football is back podcast, are you the guy with the irish accent?

thats odd, i have never seen that happen before, must be a mistake on the part of si to list him as supporting both clubs...

Why do you add capital letters into your sentences where they don't belong at completely random intervals, is the caps lock on your keyboard malfunctioning?

Was wenger sacked or did he leave by mutual consent, make your mind up. Also, your grammar is very poor, try to put more effort into the quality of your writing...

congrats on the league title and what a result in CL away at bayern, fantastic comeback, now go and get that CL trophy

your original post was entirely in spanish, you must of edited it after the fact. also the video you link to is entirely spanish speaking, 99% of the people that visit this site don't speak spanish and can't watch the videos so your wasting your time if you think your going to gain new subscribers by posting it here. i am sure there are plenty of spanish speaking fm sites out there, why don't you go and post it there. also, it would be nice if you could actually contribute to the community here instead of just using it to advertise your youtube page...

this is an english speaking forum

ok so i found a league that starts in september, i selected disable opening transfer window thinking that it would block transfers in january but it doesn't for some reason, it looks like the only way to achieve what i want is to edit the database and give every club a transfer ban. i dont understand why they give you the option to disable opening window but not the second window, why can't they let you disable as many windows as you like...

so i started a game with the sweden start date, yes the game generates the fixture results in the other leagues but my issue is that the game doesn't seem to take into account attribute development in players over the period that the other leagues have been active for, the game just seems to give all players the same attributes as they have at the start of the game, so young players are losing 8 months worth of development time which is obviously not good. it seems the best option would be to start in september just after the window closes, are there any leagues that start in september or give me the option of a september start date? i am assuming that the disable first transfer window option would then kick in during the january window so no signings can be made in january.

he won't be with you for long unfortunately, he'll be snapped up by a prem team in no time...

congrats on getting ronaldo, him and henry up top you could try to get van der sar for the gk position...

huh??? i don't understand the question...

thanks for the replies, i'll give this a try tomorrow...

so does that mean it will simulate league results up until january in the other leagues?

Hi guys, so when I start a new save I prefer to disable first window transfer budgets to make the game more realistic. If your managing at a top club its not realistic to have a large budget to spend on players when the club has already spent there budget for that summer and those new signings are already in the squad. It is also not realistic to bring in 5 or 6 signings for the first team when the club has already brought in 4 or 5 players that summer, a top club would not bring 10+ first team signings in one summer. The obvious problem with this is that your stuck with another manager's signings for the whole season or at least until january. Even if you have the first window budget enabled you can't get rid of those new signings because they have only just joined, so you are stuck with them. This puts you at a big disadvantage because you may not have the right type of players to implement your ideas, and you may end up getting the sack before you ever get the chance to properly overhaul the squad.

My solution to this is to holiday the first season with transfer budgets disabled so that I can head into the summer 16/17 transfer window with the squads exactly as they are in real life, for the maximum realism. Of course even if you disable first window budgets you can't stop clubs from signing players in the january window, as far as i know the only way to stop clubs from signing players in january is to use the editor to give all clubs a transfer ban until the 16/17 summer window, if anyone knows of another way to achieve this goal that is not as time consuming then please let me know. If you wanted to go a step further in making the game as realistic as possible you could even use the editor to ensure that signings that were made in january in the reaI world don't go through until january in the game. I would like to get feedback from others on this topic, thanks...

sorry if it comes across as me just having a rant, i guess i kind of am, stressful day and all that. still, im just wondering why i can't go straight to the page i clicked on...
