Oinfestado Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Hi, I'm trying to load my Fm2016 shortlist and it just doesn't load. I select it, hit "Load" and nothing happens :/ Am I the only one with this issue? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Lucas Posted November 4, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 4, 2016 Have you tried Import? Either way, if they are saved as FMF rather than slf then they should load in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumble Bee Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I also can't import or load the FM2016 shortlist into FM2017. The file is FMF format Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Lucas Posted November 4, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 4, 2016 They'll need to be FM2017 format. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oinfestado Posted November 5, 2016 Author Share Posted November 5, 2016 Still having the same problem. Even tried starting a new game and still can't import/load Fm2016 shortlists into FM2017. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Neil Brock Posted November 5, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 5, 2016 Yeah they're not compatible I'm afraid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oinfestado Posted November 5, 2016 Author Share Posted November 5, 2016 Well, that's very disappointing. As a loyal fm player, I'd expect my past efforts (I've spent years compiling my shortlist) to be useful on this year's edition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams are different, players are different, attributes are different, you are probably using different tactics and different instructions. The only reason you want a previous shortlist is for cheating purposes so claiming you want it for "past efforts" is ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamBamBam Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Seems the same if you set up filters and tactics on the beta..... Wasn't told these wouldn't be compatible with the full version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has some players that he loves and shortlist is making it easy to find them in a new game. Not for cheating at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs in real life have players on their shortlist for years. I want to load mine because there are players there that are still very useful and some that I really like. It just saves time.

It should be plainly obvious tbh. You are starting a new save and then bringing in information gained not just from another save but from a totally different game. How many managers do you know that can go back in time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 That's enough of the cheating argument... people can play as they wish without being lambasted in the forums .. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Neil Brock Posted November 5, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 5, 2016 Yeah if you think it's an issue just raise it on our UI bugs forum and the team can investigate further - https://community.sigames.com/forum/516-user-interface-issues/ Thanks.

Do you think any manager just loses his memory when he joins a new club? They not only keep tracking players when they move clubs, but some also take some players with them from the previous clubs...

drajen Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Guys, I've found the solution on another discussion here: The Solution from user Snk worked fine 1. Create a new shortlist in FM17(not in FMRTE) and save it. 2. Start FMRTE17 and click "Load Game" in the upper-right corner 3. In FMRTE17 click "Shortlists>Load Shortlist" Select your old shortlist (FM16) 4. Select all players (for some reason the "Select all"-button didn't work for me so i used Shift+Arrow down) 5. Right-click att select "add to shortlist file" then choose your latest created shortlist for FM17 6. Load(do not import) your new shortlist into the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
