The Modelcitizen Activity
It would be a lot of work for sure, I might consider releasing a version like that at some point. My next big project might be switching MLS to a fall/spring season first though
Check it out https://sortitoutsi.net/content/67383/auckland-fc-to-the-a-league
I swore I saw one on here but can't find it now. I might put something together over the next few days and see if it breaks any of the A-League functionality
Double check they aren't kicking teams out of World Cup/confederation championship qualifying btw, I think some tournaments just grab teams by getting the best teams from a continent with “world governing body member” checked (might be too many now)
There's no need, you don't need to start a new game or anything. If I notice something like a team moving to a new stadium, San Diego signing people, a competition's rules being announced, etc, I'll add it. Just general QOL updates when I'm bored at my co...
Actually I can see they still have $0 GAM if you start in Feb '23. You can still trade picks etc. Will see if I can give them a transfer budget too
The first window transfer ban might be causing it - normally it's good for MLS but since SD need players it might be better to allow that window
Working fine for me - can you describe your setup in terms of start date, any unrelated transfer files etc you're running? Wonder if there's another DB that's causing a conflict
Oh sh*t, for real? Have you checked the box to not allow the first transfer window? It was working when I tested it, but might need another look
It's flexible and can be used with or without the extra team! So with or without my expansion. In that case it would just help with some of the hosting and prize money to make it more realistic. Thanks for checking in
Added San Diego FC from the first season (6 players signed so far, so a chance to mostly build your own team with MLS' transfer rules). Get the graphics again, or at least the San Diego FC folder in there, along with my Leagues Cup file (backup...
Why 2024? Won't the big teams be drained by Euro/Copa America call-ups?
Actually the last update made it impossible to verify this IIRC, maybe they somehow added that change too but either way not sure I can fix it
WTF, I have no memory of that, lol, no idea why that's there. Will take a look and remove it. BUT isn't this file no longer necessary, I swear they dealt with the fitness/CWC bug in the official patch in April? Let me know if not. Also have a smaller 16-t...
No but FM24 is cheap now, alternately you can try this one
Updated with some rivalry info tweaks based on recent surveys that were done for D2 and D3 teams. Also made MLSNP scheduling and playoffs for 2024 and onward largely accurate (except no “pick your opponent" for the top playoff seeds like they have IR...
Check out the optional transfer file in the OP, this is not entirely realistic but sets a transfer embargo for the D2 and D3 teams until after the first MLS draft - this means they won't poach the best USL2 and MLS NEXT talent, at least until after the fi...
Cleaned up some NISA scheduling, added some attendance figures for some NPSL teams (for their cup games at home), made it so NYC play a few home games at Citi Field in 2023 like IRL. Really minor stuff like that. Trying to do one now where one of the LA d...
Is there an option in the editor to preclude that? I thought I tried all the different ways to tell the game that there's no promotion, but it's like the game's contract negotiation AI just can't grasp that there are lower division that don't involv...
NISA is in there. You might mean NPSL. Honestly, at such a low level the stats are so low and the AI coaches act weird so it's almost meaningless to play, other than to get to play with your local team. Plus, enabling all those extra teams means they raid...
Nice!! The user Gum at the SI forums did most of the awesome work with stadiums on the file, including with the stadium editor, but that was nearly a year ago now so the more recent news wouldn't have been included. I think I recently added Detroit's plan...
I don't see why not, if they haven't touched competition structures or done things like made clubs extinct, it should work fine. Although all of the transfer/contract changes will likely mean some MLS teams are over the cap now
The last one was just changing the USL Cup knockout rounds to no extra-time (straight to PKs), because they finally played them IRL (for the first time) and there was no extra-time. There is no “last update” in that sense, if it becomes apparent something...
Which stadiums? Casement Park and Windsor Park?
Download link on the right. This is for FM23 mind you, you might be able to port it over to FM24 but the U19 division would probably be messed up as h*ll and there would be a bunch of new people who would need the second nationality added
Added Scotland and Wales once I realized European qualifying can handle losing 4 teams (plus Russia) and still run fine
Make sure it goes to your equivalent folder to here: D:\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\editor data And when you start a new game, click on the top right to make sure the box is checked to enable the database
Is this not in the game already
Lots of little tweaks, nothing gamebreaking. Made NISA's schedule slightly more realistic, added the National Amateur Cup from the semis onward so that some NPSL teams would get extra games (idea being they won't be at constant low morale from losing in O...
Just updated with the dates and specific format they finalized on Friday (see screenshots)
Adding some of those finances now
For a bunch of teams I set it to $0 which in previous games would come up with some kind of number itself, but maybe not here. Let me know how it looks with your tests, in the meantime I might do something similar. I just gave them some TV money too (100K...
Thanks so much for the comment! I just cleaned up the Open Cup rules so that starting in 2024, the new format takes hold with certain MLS teams missing out and others sending their MLS NEXT Pro teams instead. Thanks for the links, I may have se...
That's weird. Maybe you can only hire guys if the II team plays in a league?? And obviously the US has its own crazy system and there's no “reserve” league for them to slot into (it would be cool if they could go into, like, USL2, but I can't imagine that...
Fixed now @Grim759 sorry for the wait, new version will be up within the hour. @Charles van Nes The CanChamp file cleans up a few dates etc in that competition, but it's not compatible with yellowsweatygorilla's Canadian megapack (he fixes that stuff...
Sounds like removing the Leagues Cup would cause the issue @cheezywheezy and it's just going for a high-rep team to fill the slot (or if NYCFC placed in the last Leagues Cup before it stopped being played). Not really a surprise that messing with CONCACAF...
Dude, look at the tournament in your save. Teams from Copa Libertadores drop down to the Copa Sudamericana, same as real life. I've expanded the Copa Libertadores from 32 teams to 48 here to include the CONCACAF CL last 16 (including any Caribb...
@yazeed1986 that's cool, they don't rush to drop local/domestic players as much? Did you have to do anything with player rep/CA/PA?
Has the update nuked something? It was working fine with the last 16 teams from the CCL, which included any Caribbean or Central American teams who qualified the usual way (either winning their regional competition outright or winning in the last 22 round...
I think they're still linked in the thread on the SI Games forums. Check the editors hideaway FM23 downloads section
I updated it so they're in USL now, the latest update gave them a full roster. There's an issue with contracts in USLC though (and only USLC), for some reason it thinks every team is broke and won't let you offer contracts. Working on a fix
