Don't say sorry to me… I've plenty of time to help. Slow down and read carefully… which can save yourself some time. 

 

There's a link (Sports Interactive) in my first reply to you… I suggest that you may read it carefully (again), then you know about things about the ID and filename inside a config.xml file for trophies. 

 

Or, simply open a config.xml file from the “Trophies Pack” and have a look… it's the most obvious example and the closest reference to you! 

 

 

It's alright to ask questions, but we seem to be going nowhere. The situation is that there are very limited resources about adding trophy images manually to the game. That's why I urged you to think a bit in the last reply, in order to fill the gaps and link things up. There just aren't much more help we can offer… however, I think the information/resource here is more than enough, however it does need some efforts. 

 

Anyway, it's time for your turn: 

Please spend some time and read/watch the reference links first. Also, check on the “Trophies Pack” and try to understand how things work... this is probably the best reference. Then, may give it a go when you feel ready (remember to back up important files). 

Thanks for your help figured it out and worked perfectly, you seem to be clued in on your stuff, do you have any idea how I get the last 16 of one competition qualify for next seasons version of a different competition. eg. The last 16 of the FAI intermediate Cup gains qualification for the FAI cup next season

So, remember why you're here on this page? 

This is the discussion for a config.xml template. Scroll to the very top and download the file and start editing.

 

Or, as said, generate a config.xml file for logo (as a base) first using fmXML or FM Graphics Configurator, and edit from there. 

 

Or, if too lazy, then may just grab a config.xml from your other graphics add-ons (assume that you've), then make a copy and you've a template. 

 

May use the links in my last reply as a reference of what a config.xml for trophies looks like… Alternatively, of course, you may simply use the config.xml file from "Trophies Pack" to start. 

 

 

Basically, I just repeat the previous reply… so, please read again, slow down and try to think a bit. Nothing technical, as it's just about editing a plain text file. 

 

 

These are for player's face, yet similar to other graphics… just in case you need a reference about the editing part:

Since you asked the question here, then suppose you know about this template… so may start with it: You may manually enter the entries… if not many. 

 

If there are too many to type in, then may generate a whatever version (e.g. logo) first, and edit from there (never try… but sounds possible, isn't it?). Reference to a config.xml file for trophies: https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/style/32/trophies-megapack 

 

Alternatively, if fmXML doesn't have the option, how about https://sortitoutsi.net/content/848/fm-graphics-configurator-for-pc ? May have a look anyway. 

 

For reference:

That’s great yes but how do I set up a config file In the file to be able to put them in manually

How do you get trophies in the Xml file and apply them in the game, using fmXML only allows faces, comp logos, club logos ect.
