celtic1967 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Hello. I am wanting to make the SPL a high standard league. On with 30k plus stadiums, high profile players and teams competing in the CL. I have realised that this will take far too long to accomplish on my own playing as Celtic, so I am asking for your help on what to change in the editor (FMRTE or official Editor) to make this happen. I dont want it to be stupid, i.e Messi, Ronaldo playing for Kilmarnock, but I would like high profile players instead of the Scott Severins and Lee Mccullochs of the world. Any Ideas how I can acheive this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Increase the league profile score and the team reputation points in the SPL. Give the teams extra money and add in a reserve league. Increase winning money for the league. I am working on one at the moment to have a SPL 1 and SPL 2 and just scrapping the lower leagues making a 20 team SPL and a 20 team SPL 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 I might do that just now actually. Sounds a good idea. To do this, do I just add new nation rules ? And create a new league ? What things do I need to take into consideration ? So that the game does not crash/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Create new nations rules. Add in Clydesdale bank premier rename it and then add in the teams from the first division so that you have 20 teams. Adjust relegation places to whatever you want. Then just adjust reputation for teams and league. Then add in Scottish First division and rename. Add in team from 2nd and 3rd divisions and copy steps from above. Test nation rules if anything faulty adjust and fix. After that adjust prize winning for league finishing spots , tv money etc,etc. Click have a reserve league and again test nation rules. If all ok save and load into new game. Beware though I have tried a few and got board very quick as it was just to easy to attract big players to your club but the quality of the league rapidly grew.

celtic1967 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 Thanks man. Few questions. What would you recommend I set the rep to? have it at 180 for SPL1 and 120 for SPL2 What would you set the prize money to? TV Money as well? How do I ensure that teams actually buy good players? How do I enable stadium upgrades? What should I set transfer budgets to? Bank balances...? What should I put club rep to? So far for SPL1 TV money per club- 30mill Relegation money- 15mill Prize money: 50 (mill) 25 17.5 12.5 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 750 (k) 500 250 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Most of that is down to you and what you want from the game. I have SPL set to 150 and SPL 2 to 120. Prize money SPL 6.5m for winner then 500k less until hitting 1m then decrease by 100k for SPL teams. TV money set to 2m for all SPL teams. You have no power over who they buy but with extra funds and bigger reputation they will buy better quality players. I clicked all SPL 1 teams bar Celtic and rangers and set balance to 20m transfer budget to 5m and wage budget to 50k Celtic and Rangers set to 90m and 25m budget with a 250k wage budget left. Stadium upgrades not sure about but you can change them manually in editor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 Cheers. Ive set mine slightly higher than you have. Celtic, Rangers: Balance 150mill Transfer Budget 50mill Everyone else: Balance 50mill Transfer Budget 25mill Minimum club rep 6500 for SPL1, Celtic, Rangers - 7500 Club rep for SPL2 - 6000 for all teams. SPL2: Balance 30mill transfer 10 mill BTW, do you have to enter prize money for ALL teams? In SPL2 I have only entered prize money for top 6 teams, 3 of which get promoted.

celticbhoy79 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 20 team league means entering 20 places for prize money or you will have teams finishing 8th and getting no prize money which is not good for business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 Ok sorted that, will I have to enter it for SPL1 as well? Since the bottom 3 get the relegation money ? Also, how do i enter prize money for the cups ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Yes as relegation money is just a parachute payment so they have extra to keep there best players. I will post some screen shots up of mine soon. Did you add in cups. I have Scottish Cup , Scottish League Cup and Scottish Super cup. Super Cup is worth 10m between winner of SPL 1 and Scottish Cup.

celtic1967 Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 Yeah, added Scottish Cup and Scottish League Cup. But cannot seem to enter prize money? Will add a Super Cup, but what happens if the SPL1 winner wins the Scottish Cup? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Will add a Super Cup, but what happens if the SPL1 winner wins the Scottish Cup? Normally the League runner-up takes the place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Nice, any idea where I can get the club logos from ? I think Im pretty much finished mine now, just need to adjust the stadiums to help increase income as well. Still trying to think what else I can do. Was thinking of cancelling all the manager contracts so that higher profile managers would step in, hopefully making the club stronger. Also, I thought you were only including 2 divisions ? Why have you got the highland league as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Was going to do two leagues but then thought SPL 2 would become boring with no relegation so brought in the highland League (Scottish 3rd division) and made it a 3 down and 3 up system. Created the reserve league system were each win in the group stages offers 200k which means smaller teams have a chance of making a big income from the reserves. This I thought would make teams grow a stronger youth / reserve team system as there was alot of money to be won from these games. Club logos can be found in the skinning out thread.

celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Fair enough, Ill just leave it at 2 divisions. How do you create the reserve system that you have? Sounds interesting, I cannot seem to get the reserve fixtures to show up even though I have clicked it in the editor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 It is active but not for every team what you need to do is create a new cup. Edit cup in database and make it a reserve cup. Create stages and make a group system then knock-outs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 So should I untick the box and just create it myself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Keep it ticked as it does create a 3 group league system for other teams. I have a reserve cup and a reserve league (set up through the cup system as mentioned above) Will post screen shots easier to show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Dont worry about the names for seem reason the revert back to original name after loading up my game.Need to go into editior and check it out. This is my reserve league set up through the cup 10 groups of 6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 This is what I get if just ticking the reserve league box. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Cheers, going to try create it now. How do I ensure that it is only reserves that get entered into this league ? And what cup did you select when setting it up? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 When editing cup select reserve's only. Can use any cup at all and just select the leagues you want the teams to be selected from. If you want pm me your email and I will send you the file over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 But when selecting type of cup, I cannot select just a league, it has to be group plus knockouts, or just group. Would I not be better to create a new division instead of a cup? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I guess it is what you want from the game I thought that 10 groups of 6 at least gave the smaller teams a chance of winning. After the group stages it is a clear knock out cup so there is 10 games in the groups with a total of £6m up for grabs if winning and another 200k if drawing.

celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Really struggling trying to create this lol. *Add New cup * Select competition * Add SPL1 SPL2 reserve teams *Format - group stage then knockouts * No of groups - 10 * Teams play each other - 2 times Fancy sending me your file ? WIll I still be able to use my setup for the league though ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Basically that is it what you will have to do though is add teams to the stages so it looks like this. Stage 1 Teams to add 40 Stage 2 Teams to add 0 and so on. If have 40 team in your reserve league/cup then you will need to either have 32 teams or 16 teams qualifying for the next round which is your knock out round. Then just keep halving the number of teams until the final. Remember add prize money for each stage of the competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 40 teams, 10 groups of 4 teams, 20 quailifying. Would that work? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 would not work no needs to be 32 or 16 for it to work down to the final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtic1967 Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Yeah so it does! 40 teams in group stage, 2 Qualify from each group, 5 teams in each group. When I test rules I get this message: Number of teams in 2nd round (8) does not match with number of extra teams (8) and number of teams from previous round (8) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticbhoy79 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Change 2nd round to 8 games (16 teams) and so on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
