Hey,

 

I've got myself a bit confused with the latest data update. 

 

So the download has the regular “sortitoutsi data update changes” file. Then it has all those other files like “England (league” “France (League)” and so on. Am I supposed to do something with these other files? Do I import them one by one in the editor? 

 

Going in game, most of the files seem to work when you start a new save but the “players and staff” file tells me that it needs to be verified and tested with the editor?

 

Basically the handful of other files has thrown me somewhat. 

Yep this is what's happening with mine as well. I'll go back to the editor and check and the change is there but for some reason it isn't implementing in game.

Does this mean deleting for example the licensing fix files?

I meant changed that were showing on the list of updates on this site. Yesterday it showed that one of the changes submitted and approved was Steve Cotterill as Shrewsbury manager. I'd load the update file in the editor and Sam Ricketts would still be listed as manager. However this now seems to be sorted out.

The problem I have now is that I'm saving the edited data, yet when I start a new game the changes made are not there. I have added Lee Johnson as Sunderland manager for example. When I load up the game, Phil Parkinson is still their manager.

When I load the editor data in the editor, I check changes that are showing in the change list (for example Steve Cotterill now Shrewsbury manager) yet nothing I check seems to have changed? What am I doing wrong?

I'm downloading the file, extracting it. And then copying the xml file into the editor data fm21 folder. Then opening editor and importing the database.

Question: When I start the game on May 23rd, the Premier League season has obviously already been and for example on my game Chelsea have won the league, Man Utd have come 5th, Leicester, Burnley and Palace have been relegated. I assume that then when the 2014-15 season starts Leicester, Burnley and Palace will be in the Championship while Man Utd will be in the Europa? I also assume there's nothing that can be done to prevent this? As in start the 2014-15 season with Man City as Premier League holders, Man Utd not in Europe, Liverpool in the Champions League, all teams in correct divisions etc?
