#800589 Data Update Home Thread
Footygamer
@MushroomMan2705 I assume you mean the FMRTE start date, we haven't produced a custom start date for a few years now. If you're seeing something called a sortitoutsi custom start date in your editor data folder it's probably from the wrong year.
Beyond that unfortunately it's very difficult to help you with the limited information you've given, screenshots would be much more helpful.

@Harun Furkan can you please confirm you're putting them into the right place and have checked the common mistakes in first post.
/Users/yourname/Public/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2024/editor data BAD
/Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2024/editor data GOOD
You can find the right spot easily by following these 3 simple steps
1) Open Finder
2) Click “Go” from the menubar and select “Go to Folder” (alternatively press Shift+CMD+G)
3) Copy in the following: ~/Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2024

Weirdly it seems like a long term bug thats never been noticed. It wasn't limited based on the graphic style, so his pending SS Kits were contributing to it. Crazy that this hasn't been noticed before, I guess not many people are contributing to multiple types of graphics, or just not speaking up.
Fixed now anyway.

This isn't to do with a data update, this is a setting when starting a new game called “Disable Player Attribute Masking” it's a checkbox at the bottom when selecting your leagues

Can you please give more specific examples such as screenshots of your editor data folder and specific players themselves. It's impossible to help without more information unfortunately.
#800378 Introducing Project Classic FM - The biggest update for FM24 and a long goal to keep the old generation of FM alive

Nope it's impossible to start in 2024 with the correct teams in the correct league, i'm working on changing all the world cup, euros, club world cup etc so they happen one year differently as well, but it will always start in the same year unfortunately.

I'll post in here and the r/classicfm subreddit whenever there's a major update (and probably send an email as well).
Otherwise it's just transfers and contracts each day

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, when you download each file has the date in the zip name

@jackiechan126 It's a bog standard template terms and conditions, i'm pretty sure everything you buy online says you have to delete the product under various circumstances with little realistic ability for enforcement.

The Intercontinental Cup hasn't been added yet but will be in the next few days.
In regards steam workshop files, it will work with some but not all, for instance you could use a Saudi Arabia file because we don't have a Saudi Arabia file right now, but you could not use an England file because we have an England file.

We don't have the ability to add a person as a player of one team and a coach of another. Best to put him as just a player

#800099 [FM24] Club World Cup fix (fitness/scheduling)
Footygamer
@The Modelcitizen to be honest I was looking at it because I was trying to figure out a way to move the start date so it starts in 2024 instead of 2025 and thought your file would be a good base to start from.
Do you mind if I distribute this file with the dates moved to 2024?

@Azrael are you referring to Bielsa's comments or something else? You are welcome to send a PM if you do not wish to speak publicly.
@Bielsa is a Legend could you cut it out so people can report any actual issues.

You don't need the “sortitoutsi fm24 data update” files as well as the classic fm files (but do keep the real name fix). They will also overwrite the Classic FM files because it's done alphabetically.
You also seem to be missed the “Non Dynamic Data.fmf” file somehow.
Did you download again after the previous comment?
If so can you share again with in list view that shows the file modified/created dates?

@Ollie Willerton @kayin.agogbua Can you please redownload, it seems like the most recent file was missing the proper attributes file.
That's the issue with publishing multiple updates per day, should stick to less frequent updates 🤦♂️

Possibly this is an installation issue, can you screenshot your editor data folder and the list of extra files you see when creating a new save?

There's over 1 million changes now Palmer is definitely not the only player to have been edited. Possibly this is an installation issue, can you provide some more details of players who have stayed the same?

@Ollie Willerton are you using one of the dynamic data files or the "Non Dynamic Data" file?
Can you screenshot your editor data file or the list of files you're using when starting a new save?

🚨 Bug Fix 🚨
Classic FM has been updated to fix two bugs affecting both player abilities and club finances, particularly outside Europe. Unfortunately you need to start a new save in order of these to take affect.
The file was updated Oct 22nd 2:30pm UK time. If you downloaded before that you should redownload.

🚨 Quick Fix for Classic FM
Massive apologies but I accidentally left in some debugging code that affected Cole Palmer and only Cole Palmer. This means he's still rated a lowly 140. This only affects the "Non Dynamic Data" file. If you're using one of the Dynamic Data Files it's not an issue.

The data update (transfers, contracts and leagues) is already inside the Classic FM files, you don't need both.
