thesacrisant Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Hey , Same problem here. I was updating the 2020 editor for 853 hours a massive German expansion , 332.000 changes including 9929 new clubs with all info , missing cities , stadiums , regional borders , kit colors , etc. I import the xml and and holy **** , about a 3th of the new records are not found3 They changed the new ID number list for clubs , in 2020 they begin with 2082 and with FM2021 with 2000 , so most ID's do not work and all info is lost.

KUBI Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I hope that this could be fixed in an update @Freddie Sands as this is a major issue for editors. For those who are affected, you could try this work-around: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUBI Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 @Freddie Sands uploaded three files: KUBI_People_ID.zip They work when changing the unique_ID, but this conversion should be done by the editor. - find this line (there are so many throughout the document) -----> <large id="db_unique_id" value="-1"/> - REPLACE ALL to this (there is the appropriate command in notepad) ----> <large id="db_unique_id" value="4294967297"/> It's the same with league rules if you added a competition or club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
