Hi. I bought the editor. What have I changed? National team legends, added club founding dates (years) and stadium construction dates where possible, updated the kits to be authentic, and added missing kits for the third division. I can send the file in a week if possible, let me know in the comments.

Hi, that's a good thing, thank you. You can send the file to me, and I'll post it here as an update.

Everytime I try to create my own club in any league in Russia, it gives me the “Cannot match name of a real club” error and I cant create a club. I can in other countries though. I tried to look into the editor to find something about it but nothing came up. I also tried to only use this mod but still, it showed the same error. what can i do to fix this?

There's only one option in my head. The country is based on the non-existent country of the USSR. This is probably why it's impossible to create a club in the game.

This is great news!

I have a couple of questions left, maybe I'm wrong, but why do Ivorians and other foreigners play in the Vista Gelendzhik club? I googled them and they do play there, but why doesn't the rule on the ban on foreign players apply to them, or rather to the club? They are entering the third division and it is not stated there that they cannot buy foreigners, a confusing story. But I repeat, maybe it should be like this, I don't know.

 

And secondly, in your update I can't fix the names in some divisions, they are registered in the “Competitions and other Fixes” file and work at the beginning of the save, but if you reboot the names are reset (specifically in these divisions that are marked in the screenshot). I understand that this can be fixed in the editor, but I don't have it.

 

Thanks for your attention and answers, I have no more questions or wishes
 

As for Vista, you can read about the club here:  https://fdcvista.com/o-nas/

Literally: 

Foreign football players play in the football club "Vista" as part of a project to support and develop the sports potential of students from different countries. The club attracts students from African, Asian, and South American countries, provides them with a high-quality training process, and helps them adapt to professional football.  "Vista" positions itself as a team that gathers young players from all over the world, develops them, and offers them to renowned clubs.

Teams can end up in the wrong division for the region because. that there is no place for it in the right division at the moment. Like that. About surnames, I understand that teams in the Caucasus should be dominated by players with names and surnames typical of these regions. But this is beyond my power, as they are all Russian! Even if we create a separate nation, such as Chechen, Ingush, or Dagestan, they will still be tied to Russia.

Thank you for sharing! Could I just check, that the clubs are real clubs activated in the editor (i.e. no created clubs)? 🙏🏻

What's the problem? I'm not forbidding it, check it out, and the editor and the internet are here to help. )

Is it possible to increase the number of teams in the top division through your Russia in eurocup 5v file using the editor?

Of course you can, that's what an editor is for, to do everything to his liking. If there is an editor, then go ahead )

Hello. When creating a manager, there is no Russia in the list of nationalities, only USSR. How can this be fixed?

Hi, well, it's definitely not in the editor, it's probably in a file in the game's database. But it doesn't bother me, so I didn't delve into it too much.

There is an idea to make the 4th and possibly the 5th division by region. And there are more than 80 regions! There are 200 teams in the Lower Division! But this is very little. There will be a lot of teams to add. I won't make any promises, and if I do, you'll probably be playing FM26! ) But if I do, I'll definitely share this file.

Fifth version: 

Cosmetic repairs. Fixed all remaining stadiums (names, capacity) for all teams in the Third League and Lower Division. Added missing stadiums and cities.

If anyone needs it, I'm sharing a file with transfers up to September 15, 2024. I'll be honest, not all transfers are included, only the main ones, but they're worldwide, and lesser-known players are not mentioned. I don't see the point in going further, as the game may have different dynamics. It's better to play in real-time, as that's how the transfers will occur.

I've figured out why a team from the Regional League qualified for the Europa League! There are two components to it. First, the reason is that when the teams that finished last in the Regional League have the same ranking, and the teams that finished first in that league qualify for the Russian Cup, both teams participate in the game because it's impossible to choose one of them. As a result, instead of the expected 220 teams, there are 221 teams participating in the Russian Cup! Consequently, there is no pair for the 221st team! And the game thinks: "Okay, you've qualified for the Russian Cup, but you haven't played a single match there, so here's your lucky ticket to the Europa League!" The logic is simply "brilliant"! Second. In this case, the team that wins the Russian Cup should also become the national champion. If these two factors align, then this is what happens. 

In short, I set the number of qualified teams in the Russian Cup to an even number, from 99 to 90, and the total number of teams to 220. Previously, it was between 210 and 230. This solved the problem. I tested it up to 2050, and everything was fine.

What else was changed? The most interesting is the limit on foreign players. Just the other day I read the news that the RPL wants to introduce a new limit on foreign players: 10 per team, 5 on the field. The implementation will be gradual, starting with the next season, with a decrease of one player per season. For example, 12-7, 11-6, and 10-5. I have chosen 10-6. I think this will be more interesting. The transition will be immediate, starting from the 2028-29 season. If someone doesn't like this rule, you can edit it yourself in the editor.

I also set the correct salary limits for all leagues except the Russian Premier League. There are no salary limits there. I changed the deadline for obtaining Russian citizenship from 6 years to 5 years, which is the correct deadline. I corrected almost all the stadium capacities and names, and created several missing stadiums. However, there is one stadium that refuses to change its name in the game. This is the Lukoil Arena, which remains as the Otkritie Arena in the game, even though it is named Lukoil in the editor. Regardless, if you have a in-game editor, you can make the necessary changes there.

I changed the prize money in all leagues and in the cup. The RPL is closer to reality, and I increased the prize money in the first league slightly, as the clubs in reality receive very little. In short, you can also work with the prize money in the editor yourself if you don't like my option. I made it for myself.

In addition, the 3rd Division (regional leagues) now consists of 16 teams in all 10 groups. For some reason, the group names do not change in the game, but this does not matter.

I have already mentioned that I have added a Regional Cup for teams in the 3rd division. The number of participants is 128 teams. Qualification is based on ranking. There is even a prize fund )) By the standards of amateur teams, it is quite decent. ))

In principle, everything, if I forgot something, it doesn't really matter. The game is quite playable. This is not the final version, as I have not yet fully completed the stadiums, and I need to recheck and add them to the 3rd league. If you don't want to wait, I am sharing the 4th version of the file.

I've encountered a problem. I'm not sure exactly when it started, as I haven't encountered it before. The issue is that after simulating for 10 years, I discovered that the winner of the Russian Cup does not always qualify for the Europa League. This is because the club earns a spot in the Champions League (either by winning the first or second place) at the end of the season. However, the finalist of the cup should take its place. But no, instead, a random team from the Interregional leagues (3rd Division) has appeared in the first stages of the Europa League three times in 10 years, Spartak Anapa once and Gazovik Orenburg twice. And it is not necessary that they turned out to be winners in their divisions. Spartak Anapa actually passed from 11th place! I'm shocked. I've double-checked everything, I don't see an error. I don't think it has anything to do with the fact that I added a Regional Cup for the 3rd Division teams, which works perfectly. I just can't understand the logic!

Soon, I can't say exactly when, there will be a 4th version. It will include: The Regional Cup for teams in the 5th division. All the missing stadiums for playable teams. And some other minor additions.

Try disabling the other mods and keep mine. Or you've already messed with my file.

I'm also making an adjustment for all the teams based on their zone, so that teams from the south can play in the south grid, teams from Siberia can play in the Siberia grid, and so on. If this is important to you, you can wait and not start a new game. I'll finish it today or tomorrow.

Second version. 

Changes: 

Added the relegation of teams from the 5th division to the Lower League, and the random promotion of teams from there. I also made some minor adjustments to the weather and calendar. I added the missing cities for the teams. I slightly increased the prize money in the Russian Premier League and the Russian Cup + Supercup. I may have made some other minor changes, but they are not significant.

Выглядит круто. А есть ли возможность сделать, чтобы команды вылетали с пятого дивизиона, а влетали уже команды с lower leagues? Не прописывать еще один дивизион, а просто по уровню репутации. 

И еще один вопрос, до какого года был протестирован апдейт и совместим ли он с другими апдейтами лиг?  

  1. Hi, I'll do it ok
  2. I've been testing it for 5 years. As for combining it, it depends on what you combine it with.
  3. I'll adjust the calendar for the RPL a bit. Maybe I'll change something else.

Expect today, tomorrow

Are you sure about this? This link is from the division's official website: https://erovnuliliga.ge/en/player/5990-luka-culaia 

Yes. They have the same last name, but they play for different teams and are of different ages.

It depends on how they look on your pictures. “Mestizo” is a classical “latino” look, typical for Mexico. “IndigenousSA” is a typical Andean look of Peru-Bolivia-Chile region, but it is also used outside of that region. “Afrocaribbean” is very dark skinned, think Haiti or Jamaica but is also used heavily in equatorial countries like Panama, Colombia or Venezuela. “MixedRace” is mixed black/white, kind of “Neymar-look”.

 

For now it works like this, but I plan to revisit that whole region some day as I think I am able to train more diverse models. I just need to invest some time to understand ethnical structure better and then compare it to how FM generates players there.

I see, but where would you recommend to distribute the Argentines, Uruguayans and Paraguayans? To Spain?

I looked through folder_config and didn't understand, is the Baltics folder not involved anywhere?

So the photos from this folder are not used?
