fc.cadoni Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Pre-Game Editor - Question Is it possible to create a league, let's say 12 teams and you control (as human manager) on of them; but inside the league the only game which happens is against human management team vs AI and no AI vs AI?

If there's nothing it it, but you have existing save files then it must be looking somewhere else. The screenshot is from the in-game preferences.

Ninja777 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) Trying to setup up a database, everything looks fine. Running test league gives this error. Before the test there was 132 teams, after the test there is still 132 teams. Two leagues looses their tier. Before they were both 7, now they are back to empty in tier level. (don't know why??) Looking at the rounds created, these two leagues are the only two which doesn't get rounds created.. Anyone got a clue? Edit: Two of the leagues looses their tier suddenly when trying to test..??

groning89 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Hi everyone, I'm not sure this is the right thread for this. But I've been spent hours of trying to find a solution for this without any luck and I'm suprised that no one else seemes to wonder about this. Now, in fm 24 there is now a third club text color in matches, wich is great! But regardless of wich color I editing in the IGE, most of the time the colors doesen't correspond in the games. Arsenals away kit for example, yellow and black obviously. But then I want the blue color in the outline but it's turning black anyway. Also, for example, light blue and white doesen't seems possible either. I hope you understand what I meant and I would be so grateful if someone knows what to do about this.

Little Miss Lump Kicker Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) I'm using the basic rules to implement transfer windows for a league. No matter what I do the transfer windows are all set in the same year, so the transfer window will run from Jan 1st 2001 to Jan 31st 2001, and July 1st 2001 to August 31st, even though the season updates on June 20th. I've tried it two ways, with all the transfer dates set in the same base 2000 year, and one where the first half of the season is set in 2000 and the second half of the season is set in 2001. It still sets it up so the transfer window is running all in the same year and not across the season dates. Edit: Might have fixed this myself. I set the years to 2023 and 2024, the actual dates of the league. For some reason in this instance using the FM Editor default of 2000/2001 doesn't work and update properly. I'm running quickly through a season now to see if it updates. Second Edit: Yep. Advanced through to a new season and it seems to have update. Although this issue is a little strange. Usually using the default 2000 year for FM's editor options works fine. Edited December 12, 2023 by Little Miss Lump Kicker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninja777 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 So I am trying to setup a database, and i've got 4 subdivisions, which are going to have 4 groups of 10 (or actually 10,10,7,13 but i can't make that work) - and the bottow 2 of each gets relegated into regional subdivision while the top 2 get to a playoff. Top 3 of the playoff will be promoted. I am getting an error which doesn't make sense to me. For what I know the Danmarksserien Pulje 1, doesn't have sub-competitions.

phnompenhandy Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 (edited) I've hit a couple of roadblocks after two days knee-deep in the editor. The first is a verification block - a problem with an U18 competition that I haven't touched and wasn't flagged until I went down to tier 8. Now it blocks verification of any tier. There are 12 teams in that compeition The second is I've changed the names of 53 league and cup competitions, yet some of them have gone through and others haven't changed (example of changes below).

FM24 has a habit of extincting teams unless it's specifically told that they're required, could be the case here. TBH youth leagues are a bit of a headache to do so it could easily be something else instead. For the latter, name changes not properly showing in the editor is actually surprisingly common. As long as it's on the changes list for that thing it should still show up in game though. Make sure you changed both the long and short name too however, could be you missed one and that's why it's still showing the old name. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Macbeth Highland League Division One' is the tier 7. I can't work out how to get to that 'Mode' menu. Alternatively, I'd be okay with a straight one up/one down if I knew how to do that!!

Does it mean I can never use them? Kind of. They do apply to existing saves too, so if you add them back they'll change names again. But you could also edit them. Easy enough to do in notepad++ or something. Just search for the competitions that you changed yourself and delete them from the file, then it won't change them anymore. Seems like you solved your other issue already, nice one. Although FYI nothing to do with flexible rules. If you never changed anything to fix it, might be worth double checking the playoff is set up right. From your screenshots I'd guess it's not correctly relegating a team, so the error is caused by a team being promoted but nobody being relegated. Could verify with that issue there still if the tier 6 team wins the playoff since then there would be no need to relegate them anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phnompenhandy Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Aaarggh, so nearly there - just ONE last problem. Of 13 tiers, 1 to 11 are all verified. It says tier 12 is the problem with the wrong number of teams. But there isn't. I've heavily adapted another creator's work but kept the structure the same.

themodelcitizen Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Anything under "registered teams" for the comp itself, or in the rules? Does the team you swapped out still have that division as their "next division"?

I had a similar issue recently, a 20 team league was only finding 16 teams. Set min 16, max 20 and in-editor testing it worked with the full 20, in-game it still only picked up 16 teams though and left 4 permanently without a league. TBH in that instance I think it may have been a hardcoding issue (Russian Premier League), got around it by dropping 4 teams to the league below and setting it up to expand from 16 teams in the 1st season to 20 in the 2nd season and that worked fine. The lower division had no issue finding the extra 4 teams either and ran with 24 teams. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
