I'm not really in a position to provide a meaningful ETA, to be honest - and I don't want to mislead you in terms of expectations.

 

I can understand your point around what it says there. The data on that page is generic and is based on information that comes from the FM database (as far as I am aware). It isn't intended to indicate a custom position based on the Data Update available on this site.

 

Whilst I am a staff member, I do not have any control over the payment-related processes, so there is nothing I can directly/personally do to assist. However, if you have purchased the enhanced Data Update on the understanding that you would be able to manage in this specific division, believing that the Data Update provided that capability, I'd recommend you make a post in https://sortitoutsi.net/content/57415/all-issues-with-premium-membership-post-here, following the general guidelines on the opening post. I am sure the Site Admin will take care of a refund for you in this case.

 

All the same, I do still intend to look at what can be done to override the situation in the Romanian Liga III. In addition, I'll raise the point internally about amending the summaries related to the Romanian Liga III so it does not indicate it as playable.

 

Thanks for the quick reply. A refund won't be necessary as the update is still great quality and a good addition to my game. Although I did specifically buy it to play this team I can get over the fact that it is unplayable currently. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

I'm pretty confident this is something that stems from the FM 24 base-game - I cannot be sure of the reasons, but I'm confident that the league is partially-playable because it has been set up that way by Sports Interactive. I think the situation with this division is nuanced - however SI have set it up means that whilst it appears to be a playable league (e.g. when selecting the playable levels), in reality it isn't.

 

Just to be clear: you're not doing anything wrong, nor do I think this is caused by the Data Update.

 

I haven't had a chance to look into what is involved in making it fully-playable as part of the Data Update. It is on my to-do list.

 

I appreciate your answer and that you are looking into it.

However, no offense, I find it misleading that on this website it shows it as playable and requests that you pay money to access the update, only to find out it is not actually playable.

Is there any ETA on when this will be available?

I have bought the FM24 Data Update because I saw it has Romanian Liga III. Does anyone know why I cannot select Romanian Liga III? 

I correctly selected “Liga III and above” for the Romanian leagues in the save file when you start a new game, it shows up in the menu where I select my team but it is grayed out. 

I also tried to select the leagues in the Custom database menu when you select the leagues you want to play and they all show up there as well, even lower leagues. 

I've selected all series of Liga III and I still was not able to select any team from Liga III, it was still grayed out. Can someone help please?

 

Please see screenshots below:
