I don't know how I can explain it easier than that. Clubs have nicknames in-game e.g. Red Devils, the Old Lady, Les Meringues, that kind of thing. By using the workaround, these nicknames will be removed for any and all clubs for whom the fix is used.

 

Oh okay, thanks! I understand what you mean now

If you have already started a save-game and wish to change German, Spanish, Italian and French club names to the correct ones, there is a workaround. However, you will lose the club nicknames.

 

Open the City, Club and Stadium Names.lnc file with Notepad (on Windows) and TextEdit (on Mac). All the changes I've made in the editor data file are included in this file, however they are preceded by a hashtag (#) which makes the lnc file ignore any text following it.

 

You can remove the hashtags from in front of any of the "CLUB_LONG_NAME_CHANGE" and "CLUB_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" codes which you wish to change, and this will ensure these changes are displayed in your save game.

 

For Notepad, all you need to do is: Select the edit menu, click the replace option, type #"CLUB in the first field and "CLUB in the second and click replace all. Then save and close. Shouldn't take more than 3 seconds if you do it right 🙂

 


Instead of


#"CLUB_LONG_NAME_CHANGE" 915 "FC Bayern München" ""
#"CLUB_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 915 "FC Bayern" ""

 

you should have


"CLUB_LONG_NAME_CHANGE" 915 "FC Bayern München" ""
"CLUB_SHORT_NAME_CHANGE" 915 "FC Bayern" ""


Basically:
Using an lnc
Pro: Can be used (and disabled) after a save game has been started
Con: Removes club nicknames for those teams whose name has been edited


Using the editor data file
Pro: Retains club nicknames
Con: Needs to be applied before starting a new game

 

Can I just ask what you mean by “you will lose club nicknames”

 

Would love to have the names changed mid-game if possible, but don't want to risk messing anything up haha

Scratch that, you do still get the credit. Simmed all matches in a month, and got Manager of the Month.

Thanks for bringing this out btw! It's making the game so much quicker and letting me do so much more in it

With Sim Match/Instant Result, will it be you who gets the credit/blame for any result? Or, like going on holiday, does it all go to your assistant instead?
