Hi @mons , I don't know if the file does anything beside this, but Japan.dbc prevents January real life transfers to happen in game. If it does nothing else besides blocking transfers it can be deleted.

Despite that, this is a great topic of instructions. Well done.

The patch is not being applied correctly. I've applied it twice, deleting files.

AVS SAD is correct but probably is better to display it as AFS (meaning AVS - Futebol SAD).
Alverca and Estrela da Amadora don't need to have SAD, in fact all of the clubs from First and Second division are either a SAD or SDUQ (that's a business thing).

Official League website uses this names:

Thank you very much Edgar, I already had checked that post, so it means that (quote) :
Under Launch Option set your folder location so the game can treat it as a game folder (--user_data_location="YOUR FOLDER PATH")

I just wanted to know if there was an in game option like there was before.

Sorry if I don't post that much, but I'm not a native english speaker.

Unfortunately they removed that option from in-game

So, when the beta first came out, I managed to find the Club Competition History screen completely by accident. Just to be more clear, it is the one where you can see every season for your team, and where they finished. Now that I am actually looking for it, I can't find it.

Could someone give me some instructions on how to download a tactic into my game in the FM26 beta on Mac? I don't seem to have the same folder locations as the one for the graphics listed above.

Your saved tactics are stored in the same place as the graphics folder. If you don’t see a “tactics” folder there, don’t worry, it only appears after you save a tactic in-game. Alternatively, you can create the “tactics” folder yourself manually in that directory.

On WTCS GOLD, how do you get team's tactical instructions tabs on the left hand side and not on the bottom of the screen as it happens to me in 2K (1440 resolution) ?
It's annoying having those tabs on the bottom. Thank you

Probably the screenshot is from an older version, on my game it appears on the right hand side
