Hi, is there a way I can download older version, because mine is 2300 and after I follow all the steps with the current mod it doesn't seem to work for me.

 

It doesn't matter which version you already have, when new FM update/patch is out, it's better to download the newest version of the file. So download this, delete required folders and copy the new ones (like in the instruction), and enjoy the game. 

And if you prefer videos rather than text manual, watch this

Ahhh…..ok, thanks so much. Will do the necessary then.

 

But weirdly enough, my game files haven't been updated yet by Steam. I just checked, and it's still shown as 23.4. Even when I try to start a new game, the selectable data is still only the 23.4 update. Weird. But not a big deal for me since I don't play the China league at all. I'll keep monitoring though. If and when my game updates, I'll apply this new fix then. Thanks again.

 

Because the update is 23.5 but database version is 23.4, and it necessary to reapply all fixes, like with for example 23.2 update which wasn't ‘database’ update.

Jakie są zasady Pucharu Polski w tej bazie danych? Widzę, że nie wszystkie zespoły uczestniczą w pucharze, szczególnie w 3 lidze. To jest jakiś błąd, czy celowy zabieg?

 

Zasady są takie jak w rzeczywistości czyli kluby w z III ligi nie biorą automatycznego udziału, tylko od II ligi w górę (i to biorąc pod uwagę poprzedni sezon więc jak dopiero awansowałeś z III ligi do II to gra mogła Cię nie ‘wylosować’ jako regionalnego zwycięzcę pucharu, ale w następnym sezonie już będziesz miał zapewniony start w pucharze).

Is that the FM23 update pack or a pack off of here?

 

There was a 23.4 data update. If you're not seeing this, try to reinstall the game.

i am quite annoyed. i have an existing save game and after the latest update, i found out that the japan and germany teams have been reset to fake players. Now my player - Kaoru Mitoma is upset for not being called up to Japan Squad which he has been playing for the past 2 seasons. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 

This file will need to be re-applied if/when official patches/updates are released to ensure full compatibility. This is due to the fact that some files which are removed when installing this file are automatically re-installed by Steam when official patches come out.

 

It's literally on the front page.

I don't have any data files, my game had just the last update (7 march), and he's in the game, but after I installed the latest version of fix he disappeared

 

 

It has still nothing to do with real name fix. This player is/was problably in some of your editor files because he's not in the official database and never was.

Mam problem z wyborem bazy w grze: na liście wyboru bazy się ona znajduje, ale z wykrzyknikiem, po najechaniu na niego wyświetla się komunikat: “ten plik z danymi prze użyciem z tą bazą danych musi być przetestowany i zweryfikowany w edytorze”, czy ktoś miał taki problem?

 

Ponieważ dodatek nie jest jeszcze zaktualizowany do najnowszej bazy danych.

Ok, for those waiting for the version after the winter update - since there will probably be one more patch coming out for the database next week (with the rest of the late February and early March transfers), I will update the file after that final patch. It makes no sense to create an add-on for one week and then another.

Hi Dave, I am not able to use your Pack, after the FM 23.3 update from today it says “This data file must be tested and verified in the editor.” (It's only verified for 23.0) Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks a lot!

 

Because new patch with new database is out, all league files need to be verified again in editor. Files like club data fixes will work but anything related to additional leagues needs to be verified in editor. It takes time because some countries may be verified within few seconds/minutes, some may have problems after 23.3 patch so patience is key.

bro your fix job seems great, but the fact that there are other paid upgraded ones automatically ruins the first free job, it automatically loses its value..

So either you put everything free or don't go out of the paid and unpaid versions..

and thank you again for your great work..

 

What upgraded version are you talking about? Because I see only early access version which is released a bit earlier than ‘official’ one.

I just bought their full package. If you intend to play in Brazil, it really worth.
It's jsut 2 euros and it's not just database files. It's a compilation of many mods: leagues, cosmetics and the most important: IA changes which makes smaller clubs much more competitives.
Even pre-regional teams (like 6th division) have real kits and logos.

 

I don't mind paying for superbly done real lower league database with graphics like kits, logos, even faces. A lot of creators have their patreon websites and you can thank them and subscribe to gain access to earlier versions but basically having to pay for this addon is not okay in my view.

 

And what I want to say that SI are monitoring a lot of popular websites/fansites/editor files and don't be (because I won't be) surprised if this file will be taken down in the future.

They've been doing it since FM13 and as a matter of fact many people who help SI on the forums with Brazilian stuff are part of this, I don't think it's illegal, as many people charge for patreon as well.

 

Charging for early access and something similar is understandable, but charging for files I believe is borderline illegal.

You must have seen about Brasil Mundi-UP, but you need to pay to have this database, and with each update you also need to pay, it's not free.

 

So someone is trying to make some money using free tools? If you have a link, I will gladly check this with SI on official forum. Because I believe it's against the rules.

 

And If I were you, I would just wait because I'm sure someone will create lower leagues for free.

@bigpole That particular stadium actually got a new ID for FM23 so didn't have a background yet. I'd advise you to just completely delete your backgrounds folder and then install these complete versions again 👍

 

I've downloaded all graphics again, but leave the ‘default’ folder structure and it's working. Config files are now outside the main folder. Weird situation, but at least it's resolved. Thanks for the help guys.

I just moved the whole folder from inside the megapack folder into the graphics/pictures folder and deleted the backgrounds folder as I don't want the backgrounds currently.  I then moved the stadium_insides config file inside that folder.  In FM I then went to preferences and unticked “use caching to decrease page loading times” and made sure “reload skin when confirming changes in preferences” was ticked.

 

I use Zealands skin.  Hope this helps

 

I will try to do that, hope this works. Thanks.

screen was unfortunate because the situation looks the same in every team (default photo), but yeah, will do that, even 4th time.

@bigpole Then I don't know honestly. How are they showing in-game, is it completely blank or a generic background?

 

looks like this on zealand skin. It's weird because I didn't have any problems with graphics. I'll sort something out and think about this.

Have you got it working yet?  Have managed to get mine sorted now so I have the stadium insides showing in the stadium pictures on the club info screen

 

Can you show me how your folders and configs are structured? And which skin you use?

Can you post screenshots of your backgrounds folder, in particular showing where the config file is located? If you haven't deleted the FM22 backgrounds pack before installing the new one, you might have multiple configs

Zobacz w grze w ustawieniach czy gra odczytuje pliki z dobrego folderu z dodatkami. Jeśli nie to są poradniki jak to zrobić. Chyba że masz wersje gry z gamepassa albo epica to wtedy nie pomogę bo nie wiem jak tam się ustawia foldery dla dodatków.

Cześć, dodałem do odpowiedniego folderu, zwiększyła się baza zawodników, ale dalej grywalne ligi mam tylko ekstraklasę i I ligę. Gdzie mogłem popełnić błąd, albo co należy zmienić ?

 

Czyli dodałeś do złego folderu jeśli baza gry nie widzi pliku, przekopiuję instrukcję z pliku z tamtego roku bo w zasadzie wygląda to identycznie. Jak nie zatrybi to możesz zasubskrybować na steamie.

 

How to unlock the Polish Lower Leagues on FM
1) Download the Data File.

2) Drag the file into your "Editor Data" folder. located at \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\editor data. If this folder doesn't exist, create it.

3) Open Football Manager 2022 and start a new career, In the top right of the screen, under "Database", make sure this Data File is selected.

4) Click "Advanced Setup" in the bottom right.

5) Once the database has loaded, click "Add/Remove League", then tick "Poland". The Polish lower leagues will then be playable.
