Let’s hope they don’t go down the FIFA route where everything is an add on, the BMW of games!!

 

hopefully the womens game is an option, and not baked in the game

EA has absolutely killed FIFA for me, I refuse to play that game anymore. It's such a bad game, not even remotely fun. The FIFA games before that whole FUT bs where always amazing, now everything is a recycled cash grab.

 

I’m wondering with FM 25 switching to unity, what does that mean for modders? Does this change everything up for the community that contributes to the game? Are games made by unity usually modable or does that depend on the developer?

I wanted to use chatgpt to simulate what a press conference could be like in future FM games. Now I know it’s easy to say we want this and want that in the game but I have no clue on if it is possible to have AI integrated press conferences but it was a fun experiment.

This is a great idea! Can‘t wait to see how this pack develops.

 

For those wondering how to add the faces to your manager profile, we did a video on how to add your face on the SortitoutSI YouTube channel a few months ago. (You can obviously skip the part where I edit the photo and go straight to how you add in game)

 

 

I appreciate it! Some people may like the 3d faces but I absolutely despise it, the graphics are horrendous but it is what it is. I prefer, to have a fictional manager with a real face. I’ll keep trying to add newer faces more frequently over time.

Please which folder do I paste it in? 

 

I just updated this file with a few more faces if you’re interested 👍🏻

What a great idea. 

 

I’ve updated this file with a few more faces 

Thanks I appreciate it! Just something different that I always liked to use.

Please which folder do I paste it in? 

 

Once you download the folder, you don’t have to paste it in any folder related to the game. I have the manager folder in my pictures folder on my pc. All you need to do is place the folder to somewhere easy where you can find it, like to your desktop. Navigate to the folder in game when you want to choose a picture for your manager. 

I wasn't sure if it was requested already, is there a Real Madrid one available? 

I was able to figure it out, sorry everyone.

 

I was just wondering how do I go about placing a stadium picture into the game? I am starting a new save with Inter Miami and I noticed they don't have a picture for their stadium. Does anyone have quick directions on how to do this? I would really appreciate the help.

had issues like this in previous versions which usually end up in crash dumps/or corrupt saves you need to report this to SI

 

you can try using default skin initially and clearing cache in SI folder (copy/back  up that folder first and save on desktop ) if you delete the whole SI folder in AppData you will lose your preferences in game no big deal if it resolves the issues, however report to SI first see what they say could be a known bug

 

Sounds good, thanks and I will definitely try that

It's been happening for the past few days but when the game auto saves sometimes the “Save bar” gets stuck and doesn't fully save, it forces me very time to bring up the task manager and close the program, losing all my progress I've made which is frustrating. Has anyone had this issue and if so is there a fix for it?

There plenty of people including the ones on this thread that have been on this site way longer than I have but when I joined the site looked like this:

I love the way the site looks now, it's a huge improvement from before. Is there improvements that can be made along the way? Of course, that goes for any website or product.

For anyone still having issues, I made a video on the exact steps on how to download the .xml file and convert it to an .fmf file in the editor. 

 

Setting up XML file for Football Manager 21 - YouTube

I've actually never heard or seen this film before, it looks quite funny though lol

LOL! Looks like an absolute winner!

Thank you for the clarification, yeah I was thinking about it and I figured the only thing that I changed is that I am using a 3rd party skin. Cause I couldn't find that feature with the vanilla skin.

I don't know if this was a thing already or not but I just realized when I started a new save for Football Manager 21 there is now the option to choose an actual photo for your manager instead of the 3d avatar. I haven't verified if SI did an update or what but I just wanted to make people aware. It's awesome because I know this was a big "ASK" amongst the FM fans to SI. Just a few days ago I was wondering why I couldn't put an actual picture for my manager instead of the 3d avatar but now it looks like the option is available.

Download the data update and just place the .xml file into: Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\editor data

Open the Football Manager 2021 editor program (NOT THE IN GAME EDITOR)

File > Import > "sortitoutsi.net Data Update - Changes" > Load

File > Save Editor Data As.. > Save

Before you hit the save button you will see that the save file will be called "League & Data Updates"

After you save it, close the editor and go back to: Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2021\editor data

You will now see the "League & Data Updates.fmf"

Delete the "sortitoutsi.net Data Update - Changes.xml"

Go into the game and make sure "League & Data Updates.fmf" is checked and then it should be good to go to start a new save.

Does anyone know how to make the stadium backgrounds show up on the skin? I've been trying for days now and can't figure out what I am doing wrong
