#610368 Changing save folder issue
petros4pap
hello again and Happy new year. I have some news about my issue. Well, the problem is not the string or the location in another drive. The problem starts when i add the graphics folder in the fm 21 file. After ticking the reload skin button, starts to reload for ever. So the problem is that it does not load the graphics. I didn't use the faces and the iconfaces,only kits and logos (cause they r smaller that the face megapack) to see what will happen. Same. Loads for ever. Any ideas?

i did ask the off forums. Their answer was:
Just in case you are not aware of this function in Windows 10 - you have the option to move default folders and their locations. To do so, follow these steps:
- Right click your Documents folder
- Click Properties
- Select the Location tab
- Click Move
- Browse to the location you want to use for this folder
Ι tried to do so,but system didn't let me change the location ,cause there is a file in it (don't say which one) that does not support redirection.
Αnother weird thing is that i used the same string and same path for my last manager (18) and was working just fine. Anyway ,thank you for all your efforts,if you get any ideas, let me know. Thank you again!

οκ,so what can i do ? Do u have any ideas of what is wrong? Do u need to send u anything else to help you finger out what the issue is? I believe for some reason , the game do not follow the new path. And i tried with 3 defferent drives.

The very 1st time that i installed the game and did all this, when used the string and changed the location of the files, game started loading and i thought that (as u said) needs time due the huge graphics files. So i visited a person and let it loading. After 5 hours i came back,nothing changed. Was still "loading" and the windows manager report the game as "staging".
I want you to take a look at this. This date is normal? This config created when i install the game

i did again the 2nd method and game kept loading, cause it couldn't find the location (i guess). By the time i could not reach the menu screen, i had to uninstall it and reinstall it,so it will take 15-20 minutes.

I used a second - in my endless efforts. I spent 13 hours so far trying to find out what is wrong. Also, I followed the method u r providing me. Still no good...

here r the screenshots u asked me ! I use greek windows and steam, so i will translate the words for you.
In the 1st photo you can see my documents. This is the fm 21 file that is creating after the 1st boot. Aυτος ο υπολογιστης= my computer, Εγγραφα=documents.
In the 2nd photo you can see the hard disc that i copied the fm 21 file from documents, it's drive F, with more space. Αυτος ο υπολογιστης= my computer. As you can see, i added the graphics file.
In 3rd photo you can see the string i try to use in steam (library,right click in game, properties). ΕΠΙΛΟΓΕΣ ΕΚΚΙΝΗΣΗΣ= LAUNCH OPTIONS.
Now , if i try to use string and then load the game, i get what you can see in 4th photo. If i first load the game and reload skin afterwards, it does like reload ,but nothing changes.
Were all these helpful? Can u understand what is wrong?

Notice that I am doing this for many managers in the past, and the same string and path was working just fine in previous managers
#410477 The FM18 Adboard Patch - V1.4 Out Now
petros4pap
There is a problem with this patch. As soon as i placed the "simatchviewer_uncompressed" in the right direction, it works fine BUT the names of the players and their condition do not appear. When i removed the file and reloaded the catche,everything turned back to normal. Is there anything you can do about it to fix the issue or should i remove the file permanetly?
