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...

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

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...

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

Probably the same teams in the same places but a lot of work, the game should use the same rules and format at least?

Just checked and it's working fine. Charles, are you running the latest update? If you check under “world” do you see the tournament in the list of other default tournaments like the Italian Youth Invitational?

Is it still not in the base game? I'll update it, should be a quick fix

Yeah no sh*t, this is the same fixture amount as the default competition, which will start in 2025 in real life. Check my intercontinental cup file for the implementation of that December 2024 tournament, it's also true-to-life but more along the lines of...

No, it's a lot of work (my local school is D2 so I definitely wouldn't stop at D1), and that kind of amateur set-up doesn't really translate to FM to be honest (lots of unrealistic player movement). Meanwhile USL2 does the same thing (i.e., produce player...

Cheers, thanks for the help. I'm reluctant to implement anything that reduces the big 4 transfer activity so much as that's one of the fun parts about playing in Saudi. To be honest I spent way too much time on the Gulf files last year only for this trans...

Wow not bad. There might be some glitches with bringing it into FM24 but sounds like it's working so far. Have you been playing in the Gulf much? I was so downhearted to see how bad the transfer AI is this year (top teams dropping all their Saudi players...

Ahh OK the USL2 conference teams of the week weren't working so I dropped them but it sounds like I should have cleared the “nation” too. My bad… thanks for letting me know! Much appreciated

I think the problem is mostly located to leagues like Saudi Arabia where the AI is seeking such high-profile players. The game developers haven't also made them sufficiently account for Saudi players in their squads, so the computer-controlled managers en...

Yeah, same as in FM23. I tried so many solutions last year and couldn't come up with anything. Unfortunately the big leagues in the Gulf are unplayable after one or two transfer windows due to the default transfer AI. My best guess is those teams are...

Brilliant! If you encounter any quirks with contracts, registration, scheduling, etc, PLEASE let me know. This will be a work in progress for a while as we try to make it release-quality. And watch this space for USL2!

Doesn't really interest me, especially since they dropped pro/rel, and to research all the formats and rules in order to do them proper justice you'd probably have to read Spanish. Try fmsite, that seems to be a Spanish-speaking hub for FM. I usually...

Just adding stuff that I see missing like rivalries and awards. It's totally playable now, you can start a new game. Although in the next few weeks you might see a D4 added along with more details like stadiums

USL2 is coming. Thanks for the kind words! I had a great USL2 save in FM18 as well
