I think I may have figured it out. I went through and tested with a number of other teams. The only ones I had issues with were the Sounders and Galaxy. As it turns out, those are also the ones with local TV deals. I took those out, and the problem went away. I haven't simulated too far into the future yet to make sure, but I'm hopeful that resolves it. But I haven't tested/checked if any lower level teams have local deals either.

Hey, I'm really enjoying the 2017 build of this database. However, I'm having a pretty big problem--I'm not getting the full TV money in MLS. Instead of however many millions, it says $999,999 in TV rights. I've checked the lower leagues, and they all appear to get theirs. In addition, teams promoted from NASL to MLS get the TV money that's supposed to be awarded at the start of the season to all MLS teams. I just realized that I've only tested this out with Seattle, so I don't know for sure if that's the only (or one of the few) teams not receiving the money or not. I've run simulations for years and keep running into the same problem. I've made some minor changes to your database (e.g. bigger transfer funds for the MLS clubs in the first season, more money for U.S. Open Cup, etc.) but even when I tested the original I still had this problem. I'm curious if you ran into this issue as well? Thanks.


i havent noticed to be honest, im just about to run into my 3rd season, i'll have a check

#370626 SS Kits Colours Changes for 16/17 Kits on FM17 [v4.9 - 13/05/18)

You can't pick and choose which parts of different versions of the SSKCC files you use. Either you use the '16 version or the '17 version. Using both at the same time may cause some conflicts with a mish-mash of 15/16 and 16/17 kits, which would defeat the purpose of this file, and is not something I would recommend.

What you can do, and this can be used concurrently with the SSKCC17 file, is to make a standalone file for the level 8 portugal SS16 pack fixing the kits where necessary. You would manually go through each team's kits in the pre-game editor, and manually change the colours and style which don't match the images in the kitpack. This has the additional bonus of (theoretically) being also usable in FM18 onwards if need be.


I should state i have only one folder per country (one config) with SS kits in. (not by league/pack anymore) So I've saved the all the 15 versions, then overwritten the 16 (where applicable), then again with 17...

As the xml load alphanumerically If i have the 17-16-15 load in order it should overtype those staggered down. I hope. so each SSKCC will pick up which wasn't in the previous (as it would will custom databases/logos).

Thats the plan anyway.. i'll check it as i finish. Most home teams never change colour so as long as the SSKCC picks up those with no kits in the editor, i d rather have an incorrect graphics than the default images, (That make sense - If i have to manually check and create my own SSKCC i can do it over the summer for dead kits)

If i have a pack that was made for 16, but still want to use the graphics. Say someone made lvl 8 portugal last year SS pack. but its not been done this year.

Do i need SSKCC 16 & 17 at game start? or do you carry the file over year by year?

Sorry if this is stupid question. I'm pretty sure i have SS kit packs from 15 / 16 & 17 in my folders (I'd prefer to have a graphic even if out of date)

Excellent.

I have my own logo project, but perhaps not as much time for drink or other good hobbies because the effect I chose requires some adjustments on every logo.

Someone is selling a pack? Where ? I'd like to see if its any good...

The the surface of the logos looks somewhat matte, so sharp edged reflection may not look "correct" on them. I don't know if soft edged reflection would be any better though...


ebay as per usual. HDLOGOs i think its under, unless its been reported and taken down as the do (its licensed images after all, regardless of the photoshop done).

Yeah its not a good mix but at least i know its easy to replicate his :lol might just give the filter away.

Cheers Ducc, just seems on the bigger logos i might have to bring the spread shadow in 5px or make the initial expand 5px wider to accomodate.

The full action i'm having issues getting the merge down part work but the restyle is something i do when bored or watching series anyway so the manual way isnt really an issue, im no pressed for time or anything.

Much appreciated.

Cheers ducc, glad i' didnt start the full overhaul yet then.

I presume by cutting you mean the drop shadow looking like it runs past the 180x180 canvas size?

I was using a standard 180x180 logo,
expanding the canvas to 200x200, adding the drop shadow/effects/work etc,
merging down any layers to 1,
then reducing the whole image back to 180x180.

I think i can either reduce the spread of the drop shadows, or expand the initial canvas size up to 205x205 so its fits, as long as it not too small on the resize to 180x180 before saving.

i ll give the above a go, In game you can't tell luckily with my skin but for those who use a "light" version you might. so if i ever wanna upload...

Cheers for the look/time/advice dude

I have only one comment on logo style. It looks like the drop shadow effect behind the badges is not always at 0% transparency at the edges of the images. Maybe that is what you want, but I think shadows that are cut abruptly like that do not look very neat.

As general advice - if you are going to make a large pack with thousands of logos, its important to try to make the work flow as effortless and organized as possible. If you are working with Photoshop, you should create an action to automatically add your special effect to the logos, and perhaps another action to automatically save the logos in the logopack image sizes into the folders you want them to go to.


Yeah, i have the action all sorted and the styles fed into it etc. Its an easy plug and play over an existing normal image.

the drop shadow spread i think needs pulling in abit to make sure its always inside the 180x180 at the min as well. Cheers for taking the time

I've started putting together my own logos for FM.. Any advice/tips from the more senior makers, i cant make my mind up and keep falling down a rabbit hole of filters and ideas. I made some i really like, then they dont work on 'oddly shaped' badges (like palace etc) but look great on the shield/normal shaped ones... i'm at here so far..

I tried to delete all of sangue blus data files, I only used your data files all_american and canada. Still doesnt work.


No idea then dude, you're the first person thats had an issue. Id suggest clearing cache and prereferences and jsut trying to boot those 2 files from 16.3.

Its a lot of work, if you really wanna play this, but i can recommend Uncle Sams USA files as well if these are a pain to get going for you. sorry bud

It'll be a clash with your files then, not mine. I've used this with real names fix, Pr0s, Nik33s database updates and correct lower leagues (eng/scot/oz etc),

Sangue Blues fantasy leagues have probably edited a comp somewhere that buggers it up. sorry dude.

It'll prob be one of the mega packs from sangue blue, i've used the real name fix with no errors. One of his North American files is prob causing a clash.

whats the error message you get?
