Guest Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Hey, I just can't get the hang of the editing with these files it won't let me swap my league side or my Nation. I was amazingly impressed the club I coach at Hamilton Wanderers, in New Zealand was even there but now I want to swap it for any team in the Australian National league and I can't seem too, I also want to be able to coach New Zealand at some point but same thing about not existing. If anyone can walk me through how to do those to specific things it would be great, cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jonny23 Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 If you have created a ddt file, and then decided you do not want to use it, do you just untick it on the preference screen?

Guest Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 I recently installed major raver's ddt file and i also installed the 5.02 patch tonight. However when i type in the name of some of the players in the suggested lower league guide i still cant find them. Teams like this Hammerfeast are no where to be seen. (im running a huge database with the ddt file) I have also started a new game as they were no where to be seen on my saved games. Also on the actual game im now noticing faults. Eg at the top under my name it just has a random number like 651 or 1003212 instead of having Exeter Fc Manager. Eg Pete B, 651 instead of Pete B, Exeter City Manager. Any ideas on whether my particular game is a bugged issue? Or am i doing something wrong? Some of these players suggested in the player guide could really help out my promotion campaign.

mBrace1985 Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 Do ddt files actually have any effect on loading and processing times if used? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorgen Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 It seems to me that they make the ingame db bigger, so that it musth have greater loading times. But I am not sure. It all depends on the amount of clubs you add to the file. I added approximate 100 clubs myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

newmacuser Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Anybody know how to include RETIREMENT in an EDT file? I've tried "RETIREMENT" "Alan" "" "Shearer" "Newcastle United" "01-06-2005" but it doesn't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jah Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Created a ddt file of nations but later decided to remove certain nations.

jonin Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 If you include a league when you play, is there any point in retaining the teams in that league? i.e. playing in EPL, is there a reason to put "RETAIN_PLAYERS" "Manchester United" in the .ddt file?

Guest Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 Having a bit of trouble here. I have very little knowledge of this sort of thing, so the solution might be embarrassingly obvious, but I fancied putting some clubs from around the world into the European leagues so I knocked up a quick EDT...

Jorgen Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Just put them in the db folder. When you start FM2005, you go to preferences and click in the box that is in front of your edt/ddt file. It should work now when you load a new game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pazzariello Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 was trying to swap "Aglianese" with "tivoli" in the italian serie C2/B.. my edt was: "SWAP_TEAMS" "Tivoli" "Aglianese" but it didn't work any idea/advice?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaNz Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Try using the "unique ID" number of the teams, instead of the names. This prevents any issues with special characters, spelling errors, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaNz Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 In an attempt to clear up a few questions ive seen in this thread, I've done a bit of testing with EDT files in FM2005 (using the 5.0.3 patch). The follwing commands definitely work: "BOOST_TEAM" "602" 500000000 250 120000 "SWAP_TEAMS" "1569" "713" "CLUB_DEBT" "80000000" "603" "5" "Bank" "STADIUM_CHANGE_FOR_COMP" "602" "1301394" "680" "INT_RETIREMENT" "Ashley" "" "Cole" "Arsenal" Boost Team: 602 is arsenal's unique ID. 500000000 is the amount of money to put in their account (maximum is 2900000000 [2.9 billion]). 250 is their new reputation (shows up as "obscure" in the game - maximum for this is 10000). 120000 is the capacity of the ground. Swap Teams: Simple. Just use the name/unique ID of the 2 clubs you want to switch. Club Debt: This is to set loans. The example above gives Aston Villa (#603) a loan of 80000000 pounds from the Bank. 5 is the number of years it takes to pay back the loan (maximum of 20 for this). Also, you can replace "Bank" with "Chairman" if you want. This command DOESN'T change the bank balance or transfer funds of the club. Stadium Change: The example above makes Arsenal (#602) play all their home Champions League games at Old Trafford. 1301394 is the unique ID for the Champions League and 680 is the ID for Old Trafford. Int Retirement: Makes Ashley Cole retire from international footie. Pretty self-explanatory. As for the FUTURE_TRANSFER and LOAN commands, I cant get them to work on FM. Sorry for the huge, long-winded post, but hopefully it'll answer a few common questions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pazzariello Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 i can SURELY tell you that on 5.0.5 the command SWAP TEAMS don't work. it's unbelieveble! damn' it's the latest patch ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaNz Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Oh, I wouldnt know about that I never bothered installing 5.0.5 as it only fixes about 5 minor bugs, which dont affect my game anyway. And if it stops the edt files working proerply i defintely wont bother downloading it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
