#889820 FM26 Real Name Fix v5.0 - for FM26.3.1 [26/05/2026] - USE THE WORKAROUND IN THE FIRST POST IF SOME CLUB NAME CHANGES AREN'T WORKING
bigpole
Have you checked if all 4 editor data files are selected when you start a new career?
#889673 [FM26] - Polish lower leagues (down to 4th level) + [winter database update]
bigpole
Górnik Konin is in the database in IV Liga. But because this level is not playable (and only for promotion/relegation from III liga), it's not possible to select the team at the start of the game. If the team is promoted, you will be able to manage it. There is a file with lower leagues on fmscout and I think it's possible to manage the team from the start.

If you don't know where to put downloaded file, you can subscribe to steam version.
#889453 [FM26] - International fixes & Nationalities update (FINAL VERSION IS OUT)

@rafa1801 It's because the new file is uploaded without the preview picture (that's why the new file doesn't have the logo and the old one does). You can use the new file without any issues.
#889298 [FM26] - International fixes & Nationalities update (FINAL VERSION IS OUT)
bigpole
The Final version of the file is out.
What has changed?
I will probably revise the file when (if) the FM27 is out, and create the file for next FM version.
The steam workshop file for 1st version is still online but I've updated all links on fansites and uploaded a new version as a separate file on workshop (so when you download or subscribe to the links from the 1st page, you will get the newest file).

Are you sure that you've selected all 4 files when creating the game?

Yes, by applying the realname fix and making sure to select all 4 editor data files when creating a new game.

It's weird because antilles is a dissolved nation and it shouldn't even be in national teams section. In this case, Monaco should be available. You can raise this bug on official forum.

Try to load only the 4 files from real name fix and nothing else

I don't think that the Curacao is greyed out in the game, so you are loading some weird editor data files along the way. So this is not the issue with the file.

it's simple, install the realname fix, check in game if 4 editor data files are selected and it should work.

Do you see the file in the game when selecting a new career mode and a database? Because if you don't, the kit colours won't be changed.

When you choose a database, you should have a list of editor data files available. If they are none, the game is not loading the right folder.

And because I don't see everything on the screen, I'll say just in case - try not to have the fm folder on onedrive disk. You can create on a C disk but name it differently, like FM folder or FM files.

In this case, please try to create a separate folder and copy all the files there. And then, select this folder as your ‘fm folder’ inside the game.

There is the problem. You have set /games folder as the folder fm load files from. You need to have the ‘main’ folder set, like in mine example. That's why your files are not visible.

You don't have to start as napoli. Just show that you have all 4 editor data files selected at the start of the game. Because these files change for example the napoli name so if you don't select this file, there will be no napoli name change.

Sorry, I wasn't specific - send a screenshot from the game that you select all 4 files.

If you start the game from the world cup mode, NO ADDITIONAL FILES WILL BE LOADED. No additional leagues, no editor data fixes, no name changes, nothing.

The folders in the fix are restoring the ability to play japanese national team on the start of the game, and all 3 j leagues are enabled to play as well.
I believe that in the older fm games japanese NT was always with real players (like germany) but indeed something has changed and I've simulated 5 years and japanese NT is full of gray players (the league is still playable and has all real players).
If deleting both japanese dbc files helps, probably we could take a look if deleting these files from the fix helps. And remember that deleting these files can also break something else so it has to be checked.
And thank you for the input.

That's why you remove all 3 folders and paste 3 folders from the fix. This way nothing gets changed (unless there is another update from SI, so you have to reapply fix).

it's fixed from the start and the japanese team is playable.
#885291 Cut-Out Faces Megapack TECHNICAL SUPPORT thread - first post updated for FM26
bigpole
I believe it may come as irritating to anybody who knows that the updates for facepack come out each month. I understand the ‘where’s the update' post in the metallic thread logos (because the 1st update was 5 months after the game release due to SI changing the name structure) but this is a steady, month by month update megapack.
Furthermore, I get your passion, but please understand the creators, we all are doing this in our spare time.
#885290 FM24/26 facepack for people added in the Data Update - Technical Support thread
bigpole
Yes, you should download the whole megapack once again (because the file names are changed in new version).
I've downloaded the megapack once again and the new updates and everything is named face_playerID (with corrected config file as well).
