westmead63 Posted November 5, 2004 Author Share Posted November 5, 2004 I believe there is a new option when starting a new game to do that without using DDT files. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Stiemens Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I was wondering about EDT files and network games. I'd quite like to make a few changes to the game database for a network game would EDT files be the way to go? And would all players need to have these on their machine? I'd like to be able to do a few transfers and managerial moves ideally - if not, is it possible to just to make sure each player is using the database I've edited on my machine?

westmead63 Posted November 7, 2004 Author Share Posted November 7, 2004 If you are the host then they would use your database and game, I think. Therefore any changes you made would be seen by everyone? I think! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Raver Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 fatto79, it does work in the same way, I still had my CM03/04 game on my hard drive and the ddt file that I had created for that for the european clubs, all I did was copy and paste that file into the the db folder on FM2005 and it works great had the game even picked it up when I loaded the game on the options screen!

Major Raver Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Do you mean what leagues in my game or what leagues in the ddt file?? I only play the leagues I would want to manage in and large database, and the ddt file that I have gives me nearly every player in an european league team. There are a few clubs missing, but all the German, French, Italian, Swedish, Norweigen, Danish, Spanish, Portugese, Belguim, Finnish, Greek, Scottish, English clubs from their top division to their non-leagues are there plus a sprinkling of other clubs. If you want the file email me so I can reply. Should of charged, I would of made a fortune with the amount of times I have sent it out, lol! Any feedback would be welcome!

Jorgen Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 I tried to make my own ddt. At first it apperently seemed to work, but not will all teams that I had included in the file. My question is this: What teamname should I use in my ddt-file and from which language? (Because I don't seem to be able to load National de Medellin) Should I use the short name? Atlético National?. Or the long name? CDC Atlético National. Should I use the name as it is in Dutch? Atlético National. Or as it is in English? National de Medellin. As you can see, if you edit the in-game language, some teamnames change also. Is this the case in the editor too? Has Matt Jones allready made a ddt / edt for us to download? Kind regards and thanks for helping, Jorgen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Budenmeyer Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I'm assuming that edt and ddt files won't work with quickstart games, would that be correct? Is it possible to edit some details of quickstart games? I know someone probably asked already but I can't see it (and i'm too lazy to look through everything.
