#521696 FM20 Adboard Patch - V1.4 Out Now!!!
rabcp
Can you post a screenshot of your ‘ads’ graphics folder
#521693 FM20 Adboard Patch - V1.4 Out Now!!!

Probably because you ‘Graphics’ folder has an uppercase ‘G’ change it to lowercase ‘g’ giving you ‘graphics’ and it’ll work

I have 3 more adboards to make for the Champions League and then I need to code and test contributions from other authors, I'm hoping to have the update out by next Sunday (22/03/2020)

It’s a bug within the game, this use to only happen with super cup finals in previous versions, but in FM20 the match engine treats all matches at a neutral venue as a home/away game.
There where numerous requests to include banners in the no clubs ads xml so that flags would still be shown in Champions Leagues games etc. The only solution would be a 3rd xml file giving us, clubs ads, no club ads and fan/ultra banners only...
I’ll report the issue as a bug on the SI forums later on and provide a link so others can also flag the issue

The issue with Stuttgart is due to them having no static adboards assigned to them, this will be addressed in the next update!
The crowd issue, I have replicated with and without this patch installed which means its a bug in the game, so looks as if the latest SI update has given us a new bug...

If you mean fan flags then none have been made for Bundesliga clubs as of yet
That’s correct, the red adboards are down to a minor issue in the xml file which I’ll fix in the next update
I’ve finished video ads for the Serie A, next Onwant to try and make some for Portugal and then give the Champions and Europa league ads a quick update. I have a lot more free time over the coming weeks so progress should be quick

Can you provide some screenshots of your folders. What teams/leagues are you experiencing this issue with?
Chances are your Graphics folder is the issues make sure it's called "graphics" for some reason the uppercase "G" is the issue.

Dutch Eredivisie,English Football League,FA Cup,French Ligue 1, Italian Serie A, Portuguese Primeira Liga,Scottish Premier League, UEFA Champions League & UEFA Europa LeagueCan you post a screenshot of how they appear in the match engine? From what I can see from your screenshot you need rename the 'Graphics' folder to 'graphics' for some reason an uppercase G prevents the game from loading static ads.

Sounds like the xml filder is in the wrong location, can you provide screenshots? Also the folders are suppose to be in the Football Manager 2020 folder, not just the Sports Interactive folder

It is possible to set the order of pitch side adboards however, they will vary by pitch size. So for example if you set ads to show in a certain order for a league, there appearance in relation to the pith will differ between club with a small or large pitch.
I’ll re upload the required files this evening,
Unfortunately this is hard coded within the game.

This occurs when there is an error in the xm file, have you tried to modify the xml file in any way? I have checked the LigaMX and the CONCACAF Champions League and both work as intended.
Thank you, there are Argentine ads within the game, they are in need of an update but as I never play the game outwith Europe they are not a priority for me in all honesty

Thanks for your support. I have just checked this out, for some reason FM is not treating the semi-final as a game at a neutral venue and is loading the 'home teams' ads, if the 'home team' do not have video ads (e.g. not the old firm) then default video ads are displayed instead. If you use the 'no clubs' xml file for matches at neutral venues then competition ads will show as intended.
Cheers mate, I'll get these added

Dutch Eredivisie,
English Football League,French Ligue 1, Italian Serie A, Portuguese Primeira Liga, Scottish Premier League, UEFA Champions League & UEFA Europa LeagueSorry but I won’t be adding these, while I appreciate the effort, I would need permission from the initial creators of these files and even then, I would not use them as they are the wrong size and not realistic.
I've no idea to be honest, hopefully someone who has tried this with an ipad can provide an answer.

As the video shows the clubs xml file is used as standard. Therfore, If you want the club adboards you dont have to do anything

Have you modified the xml file? These errors tend to happen if there is an error in the xml file
If you message me the details I'll throw something together
There is a guide on how to add adboards to the game on page 1
If you never used the FM19 version of the patch you only need the full pack. If you used then FM19 patch and copied it over to FM20 then you only need the update pack. The update pack was only created to save people with previous verisons from downloading a 600MB file for 20MB's worth of new content.
