Yes, yes, background stuff;
- Nowhere near as many new leagues as I'd have liked, but most user created leagues are shite and buggy, so kept it to a minimum
- The official SI Gibraltar league intrigues me hugely
- Loaded down to the depths of 19th tier Germany, should ensure I will always have a job to go to
- Made myself Brazilian / German, give me a job
- Sunday league rep, ain't achieved shit
- Will probably crash and I'll have to start again with no added leagues
- MON.

#166276 Searching for players and staff

It could be because of your database size, when you start a new game you get the option of choosing how big you want the database to be (Small, Medium or Large), the bigger the database you choose, the more players and staff in your game.

Possibly, best off asking one of the lads in the graphics forums. But it wouldn't work with your save game, you'd have to start a new game.

1 billion is certainly doable, but I've lost interest in Mirandela now. May return to it in a few weeks but for now I'm trying to sort myself out some FM14 leagues. Bloody bastard to get the thing going, so many errors in user created leagues and creating them yourself is so time consuming.

Debating whether to have only a few downloaded leagues or to just stick to the SI created ones.

Apparently it just goes straight into the Sports Interactive folder / has an automatic installer, regardless from what I can see its only for the stadiums listed in the original post. So I don't think you can expand your stadium to three tier or get any non-Brazilian stadiums to be three tier.

Just gonna have a normal FM14 game, too many things annoying me with the add ons, from bugs to incorrect rules. And I'm faring little better in my own efforts to create the leagues. Disappointing. Although I have downloaded the official Gibraltar league made by SI.

Any specific leagues your after? I have quite a collection of them that I've gathered from around the FM scene.


Malta, Cyprus, Andorra, Dutch lower leagues
Panama, Cayman Islands, American lower leagues
Colombia
Egypt, Sudan, Tunisia
Mongolia, Iran

I'm guessing you used this, it formed the base of my Pentagon career as well.

Coverage on African nations has been hopeless (as usual), Claassen's pack has probably the most detail there IMO.

Tried my hand at creating the Nigerian and Ghanaian lower leagues as well, far from perfect though.


Aye that's the one, just didn't fancy working for me. May try it again with a few changes to league selection but not ideal.

Good start, loaded about 20 leagues, holidayed three months, not a single game played in any league. Gonna have to create them all myself.

If you want a job doing right, do it yourself.

There's a Megapack on the Steam Workshop, 77 nations or something. Covers a lot of what I want, just a few leagues missing from her that I'm interested in. Gonna give it a test run now and report back on whether its any good or not.

The NASL update on Steam is a bit disappointing, apparently removes some MLS specific features like the squad limitations and that. So I might have to add those leagues myself.

Horrible forums. Horrible people. With their pie charts and alternative ways of FM tactical thinking. Horrible.

Throw it at me, are there any sites out there that I am overlooking? I know all of the SI forums and I've briefly looked at the Steam Workshop, but there's a few leagues that I want that no one seems to have done. And I don't fancy creating them just yet, after a shower and I've blown my nose then maybe. But right about now, no.

Been chasing this guy on/off for over ten years, always been a question of his wages being too high or me being unable to agree a price. Delighted to have him now though, can play both wings and both forward positions I plan on playing this year.

HOME.

Lost him 14 years ago to Porto who approached him on a youth deal, 177 goals and 47m later he's back. Still one of the best in the world.

Doing my utmost to get this legend of the game transfer listed. Made my interest clear in the media, had two bids rejected already, few more days and I want him transfer listed. By next week I want him on the first flight to Lisbon and then on the 85B bus to Mirandela.

For the most part the current crop of youngsters aren't ready, I also just fancy sprinkling some aged quality into the team. I've identified three or four targets at MC and ST. The ST is particularly ambitious and if I get him its gonna cost a bomb in wages and fee, but it will be so worth it.

I'm gonna have a mini-cull of the reserves, getting sick of loaning so many players out every year. Time to get tough.

Everyone is back, looking at things I think I might actually give a 4132 (DMC, MC, MC, MC) a run out. I've sold all my wing forwards and I just fancy a little change, MC is by far my weakest position so it will be a big test and I may have to go out and sign an MC or two.

Gonna wait till everyone returns from loan to fully reevaluate the squad and see whether I need to go out and sign someone for big money. Definitely in the market for some experienced players just because right about now that is tickling my fancy.

June 22nd right now, come July 1st the rebuilding begins, again.

Yeah, your finances screen it tells you how much of a percentage you get from transfer fees. Certain chairman will happily accept bids whereas others will leave it up to you.

As for relationships that only really comes into effect when buying/selling players, if the manager has a good relationship with you he is more likely to sell a player to you.

I've had something similar to this as well, if I remember correctly what had happened was my currency automatically changed to Euros or something and then just magically turned back.

Its the best sanction, reducing CL squads is the most effective way to ensure teams follow the rules. Don't really agree with the no rise in CL wage bill, I think that could definitely be contested in the courts. City appointed the same guys who set out FFP to try and get around it, so if anyone can find a loophole or a way around sanctions it will be City.

Directly after the WC and Euro finals there are a spate, but also as soon as qualification finishes which I think is in November, not 100% sure.

Best thing to do is go to each of the continents, look at the major tournaments, make a note of the last matchday of qualification and the date of the final for certain competitions, then make a note for that day to keep an eye on the job centre.

There will be even more uproar next year when people fail to realise that a 21 year old Romelu Lukaku isn't good enough yet to lead the Chelski line and refuse to accept this.
