make a duplicate of an original edt file then paste all the text in there and save it,that should work,please let me know if it does

Yes always,when you start a new save the code runs just before it forces you to save the game

They will generate every season starting from the end of the first season

ive looked it up and it should be something like Users[Your Mac Username]\Library\Application Support\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\data\database\db\2430\edt\permanent

paste the file in there and confirm it to overwrite the file of the same name already in there

also i just uploaded another version that contains Gibraltar and Liechtenstein

replace the file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Football Manager 2024\data\database\db\2430\edt\permanent

I did some more tests to try to generate wingbacks and dms but I couldn't successfully generate them because the code was wrong so it seemed to generate random positions and many of them were dms and wingbacks by coincidence so the wrong code for preferred position seems to be the same as no code so then i did the test again with no preferred position and all the players generated again in random positions and many of them were dms,so I think if you generate 50 players with no preferred position about 15-20 or them will be dms and maybe 5-10 of them would be wingbacks but I haven't tested it with so many players

I have figured out a way to generate 3 players a season on average at any club,in my experiments i used Scunthorpe United and i have tested this method from players born between 2008-2039,i don't recommend going beyond that because it is untested and it really isnt necessary.

Ok so this is for England and for FM24 ONLY,for older games adjust the date of births according to what year game you are playing so if you want to do this on fm20 for example then take away 4 years from the examples i show in England where we start in 2008 for every generation

Ok so here are some rules,players born between the 1st of January to the 13th of march are considered EARLY

DO NOT have any birthdays between the 14th of march-31st of March(these are the dates the youths generate in England,avoid them because players will not generate or generate the wrong year)

And players born between the 1st of April to the 31st of December are considered LATE

ok so here we go and i recommend keeping the same amount of players per generation except for gen 4 because only the first player will generate

1st generation must be born EARLY in consecutive years 2008-2018 (11 players per generation)

2nd generation must be born LATE in the same consecutive years 2008-2018(11 players)

3rd generation must be born EARLY in the same consecutive years 2008-2018(11 players)

4th generation must be a single player born LATE in the year 2008 (1 player max)

In my experiment from the first generation everyone has their first name as First and their surname as One-Eleven,second generation everyone has their first name as Second and their surname as One-Eleven,the pattern repeats for the third gen and the single player in the fourth gen is named Fourth One

and here is the order they will generate at the club

-first season-first one-third one =2 players
-second season-first two--second one-third two-fourth one =4 players
-third season-first three-second two-third three= 3 players
-fourth season-first four-second three-third four=3 players

and so on it will generate 3 players every season after that until all players have generated,so if you want to put 100 players in your club put 33 players in gen1-3 and 1 player in gen 4
