@rabcp
At no time have I said that this job was mine. Only the adaptation that I have made. JUST THAT. I'm going to completely redo the patch. I just wanted to pay more attention to the Spanish league or other places where I play.

I no longer have anything else to talk to you and it is not necessary for you to delete the content because what matters to me is that people enjoy your FM as real as possible ..... until forever


I have no interest into entering into an argument, but I find it troubling that you don’t seem to recognise what you have done is wrong. While I accept that you have added to my content you have still not given me or any other contributors credit for the other 85% of content in the file. You have also redistributed my content without even asking me if it would be ok.

I don’t accept that you never said the work was all yours as your main graphic on FM Scout said “adboards video and static by crackvictor” while this may be accidental, it implies that the work is all yours. Nowhere on the download page did it mention my or any other contributors names or that content came from another patch. If you compare that to every update I post, I explicitly identify every person who has contributed to that patch.

If I was to make new kits for the Scottish leagues and post a kit megapatch covering all leagues with content from other kitmakers on here without their permission and call it “kits by rabcp” people would be angry at me and quite rightly so!

I have received good content from you in this very patch before and would have been happy to have used your new Spanish ads. I have never reject any of your content which makes this all the more surprising. I don’t see the need to have competing patches trying to do to the same thing especially since they are incompatible with one another due to the unique way the xml file works and I would be prepared to try and find a solution with you for the benefit of the FM community

@rabcp

You must immediately remove the following content from your pack:
alaves, at bilbao, at madrid, betis, cadiz, celtic, sports, eibar, spanish, getafe, granada, leganes, levante, mallorca, osasuna, ponferradina, racing santander, real society, sevilla, valencia, valladolid, villarreal, borussia dortmun, etc etc

I don't think I forget anything. I hope that throughout the day I remove this content from the pack.

"The most difficult thing is to know ourselves; the easiest is to speak ill of others" ....


That’s fine I’ll remove them this evening, the big difference is @crackvictor I initially had your permission to include these files, you just uploaded my and other users work and passed it off as your own, had you just had the curtesy to ask then I would have let you use my files.

But if we’re going tit for tit then I expect you to also remove my work from your upload at FMSite

Also your quote is utterly pathetic you are the one who is in the wrong here so trying to pay the victim!

Missing banner, how fix it ?

Ensure the graphics, pictures and ads folders in this location (Documents/Sports Interactive/football manager 2020/graphics/pictures/ads) are all in lower case (no capital letters)

I see that Crackvictor has posted his modified version of Rab's adboards on FMScout and elsewhere without crediting the makers of the adboards that include myself and Rab. See Here


Thanks for bringing this to my attention, much like yourself I am very unhappy about this, 95%+ of files are from here! There is also a thread on FM site: https://www.fmsite.net/forums/topic/88066-adboards-23-fm20/?tab=comments#comment-2722045 where no credit is given to myself or anyone else who's work has been stolen. I have allowed people to use my files in the past but to just steal them and pass them off as their own work is very poor

I've posed the following on FMScout:

"I am very disappointed to come across this patch, the vast majority of files (95%+) have come from patch without my permission and without any credit.

I have spent hundreds if not thousands of hours developing the content which has effectively been stolen, this is blatant plagiarism and I request that this file is removed from FMScout"

Hi, The Italian SuperCup is in the files? Because when i play the match the Adboards are black. ( I have already tried to change the hd folder to sd but it doesn't work). Thanks!

No video adboards have been made for the Italian supper cup so black ads appearing there is normal.

I downloaded v1.2 version, but Champions League ads are same as the previous ads. Europa League has been updated, but Champions League ads is missing.
Ex) Heineken, Playstation, Pepsi Max, lays, gazprom have not been updated.

There’s is a fix for this in among all off the links on the first post in this thread

I though I was doing something by starting all over from the beginning but now I have lost the video folder.

I’d advise you to start from the beginning, redownload and reinstall all packs, link on page 1 and watch the instruction video to guide you. It may also be worth ensuring the match graphic settings are on high on the preferences menu

It sounds like the issue is with the game not the patch, try adjusting the graphic settings in the preferences menu

There are files there that I dont recognise, it looks as if you have combined two different patches which may be causing issues, what xml file are you using, and from which patch?

Hi man, I appreciate so much your job, congratulations but i notice one thing, can you make at least ad's for the South American Competitions (like Libertadores, Sudamericana, Recopa), these competitions it's so important for the FM South American community and those who is already in the files is so out of date (if you can make for the Brazilian Serie A i'll be so glad too). Thanks bro, one more time congratulations for that great job!

Thank you, I'll look into making video ads for the Copa Libertadores, Copa Sudamericana and Recopa Sudamericana

Hi there,
@rabcp, Thank you for all your hard work with adboards. A few posts ago, you mentioned that you were going to post a video tutorial to make video adboards. I'm stuck creating them and I would really appreciate this guide to see if it can help me finishing my vid adboards.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers

The video is done, I am just having trouble adding audio instructions to it, I am aiming for publication this week though

Hey,
first of all a big thank you for this fantastic job!

But i have a problem with the statistic adboards. See the screenshots.
In the Dortmund Stadium you only see a black adboard and in Munich only the "Allianz" ad.
I checked all the paths and they are correct. Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks for your comments.

It looks like you do not have all of the packs installed, they need to be installed individually and in order: V1.0 -> V1.1 -> V1.2 -> V1.3

hi, thanks for the reply.

yes you are correct, i zoomed out in the match engine and the upper tier has the static ads.

is there a way to get the middle tier to display some ads or banners too? as it looks a bit strange having the middle with no matching banners etc

thanks

No problem,

It’s designed to mimic real life as close as possible, Forest have coloured walls in the middle of the first tiers so it replicates that.

There is a guide on page 1 of the thread on how to recode if you want to move the banners but in all honesty it’s a fiddly process

hi guys, thanks for the effort this is a great patch.

however can you tell me why only some of the static ads work? video ads seem to be fine but the static it is only showing some of them?

it seems to be the images with actual names are being shown. but the ones named 1, 2, 3 etc are not?

thanks

Can you provide a 2nd screenshot? The static ads with names on them are on the second tiers, from that picture the static ads are shown as intended

hello i have followed all steps to download it but belgian league and clubs, and cup are not working can you help me please.

Can you provide screenshots?

Something is wrong with the band advertising from Leverkusen, Cologne and the dfl Supercup @rabcp

Care to expand on that? What is wrong?

First off, I love the file. I have one issue. I play as SC Heerenveen and I get the static adboards but I have the video ads. The video ads work with other teams and leagues, is it because of the team I have or did I miss a file?

You should have video ads in any Eredivisie games with Heerenveen, ensure that you have all version of the patch installed and installed in order... V1.0 -> V1.1 -> V1.2 -> V1.3

Thanks for the swift reply. Also patch is awesome. Having dl'd the 1.2 update, its not so bad. Just seeing 'watch Oldham vs Maccelsfield on board your Emirates 1st class flight to Dubai' wasn't cutting it.

I have just noticed you can toggle video hoardings on or off for each specific stadium (well Boundary Park) via the editor. Haven't tested as this would mean restarting the save.

Your welcome, I’ve tried turning them off in the editor and it doesn’t work either unfortunately. Once your climb the leagues with the mighty Oldham it’ll look less out of place 👀

I just want to say something

So, I've downloaded this for the first time with all due updates... But! It didn't work, the moving pictures were blank, and the static ones didn't show, So i've deleted the folders after a long while of trying... When I've only put the first version without any update, it finally worked. It seems as if the updates break something!

The updates do not break anything, you have either not installed them properly or installed them in the wrong order.

Anyway of turning off video ad boards for specific clubs, leaving static ones in their place?

In my Oldham Athletic save, we have video ads boards (unsure why?) of the generic variety (emirates, adidas, bet365 ....) and its ruining the immersion

Unfortunately, while SI have given us the function to turn on video ads for any club, they have neglected to give us the function to turn them off, I'm afraid you are stuck with them.

Hi rabcp
thanks for you`re fantastic work is it possible for the next update to put in updated led adboards for TSV 1860 Munich?

Thanks Andy,
I wouldnt be able to make video ads for 1860 Munich but I could possibly make some static adboards for them

@rabcp I'm playing with Sunderland in Championship and suddenly I get video ads from Volkswagen and Vodafone that are both in Dutch (I am from The Netherlands myself). Any idea why they are popping up?

It looks like SI have hardcoded some ads for dutch players, if your reapply the bidstack fix it may solve this issue for you

Thank you for this. It's really been a nice addition to my game.

Everything seems to be in order with .3, but I'm getting the black screens for the Leverkusen video ads based off of a quick check. The files are showing up in the correct place and I am using the club specific .xml file. This seems to be the only issue so far.

Your welcome, have a look at the FAQ on page 1 of this thread it may provide a solution
