    Multiple errors popping up when i try to start the Pre-Game Editor...

    "Failed to find a default database to use"

    "Warning: could not find lang_db.dat"

     

    Things ive tried that didnt fix:

    - Verifying game files for both FM and editor

    - Restarting Steam

    - logging out of steam and logging in again (something mentioned on Steam Community as possible fix)

    - Cleared Steam download cache

    - Reinstalling both FM and pre-game editor, then restarting steam

     

    Note that i have Steam installed on a different drive and install folder then default, so not the default installation folder of FM/Steam.

    Hello, sorry to see you are having this issue. Could you try reinstalling the game in the default location and let us know if this works?

    Ok so eeeh.... This thread/post can be closed/deleted, im a complete and utter tool......

    I kinda was smart enough to install the FM 2013 Editor.....  Instead of ofc the 2023 one...

    No wonder there was no database to find.... Since that game isnt installed.....

    Sorry haha.
