I appreciate all feedback and always take it on board. Maybe in a future update I might consider making the names slightly less British Centric FYI there are a couple typos in the word "Division", I think in the 20th Div name the word is misspelled and in the short name of one of the higher leagues it's also misspelled similarly. This is amazing work though, I actually tried to load this in the editor but it would not work for me, there are almost a million DB changes and it seems to make my editor freeze. How did you even DO this?!?! Really I just wanted to change some of the division names because I'm an old fart and I don't know what the heck an "ooclanoo" is but I think that can be done post-start in the IGE.

Hey there, I will check the spellings but I just want to thank you for the feedback really. Hard work & 20000 hours of editing experience. (sorry for the spelling) I am no spring chicken either. Here are step by step instructions: Step 1: Extract the file to here: downloads folder and drag it to the following location: MyDocuments-SportsInteractive-FootballManager2021-editordata (If the editor data folder does not exist then simply create it) Step 2: Load the game, e.g. career game, check it is the only one ticked in database settings: Press Confirm & Advanced set up. Then you can choose the amount of divisions you want to include If you include all 20 divisions you will get over 300k players and staff, if include 19 divisions it might be better for you if your Editor is freezing but it shouldnt do Then Start game and you should be grand. I will correct the spelling mistakes in an upcoming update so thanks for letting me know. The divisions are numbered so you know where they are in the pyramid but yea you can adjust the names if you want. in the IGE If you dont include all the divisions, you can always make the last one view only and if you need anything in particular I am always happy to help.

BedeviledEgg Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I am able to start a game using the mod, it seems to work great, even using all 20 divisions is fine. I loaded the full league last night and then went on vacation unemployed and it played through 10 seasons while I slept and everything looks perfect. But I just can't load the mod in the pre-game editor at all, it freezes while trying to load the DB changes even though my PC is pretty beefy. Is 16GB of RAM not sufficient to load this in the editor? I'm learning about the editor this year and I've been learning a lot looking at other people's mods so I thought I'd look at how you did this too. But nope, it's too much for my poor PC apparently.

Nice! Yea over a million changes. You probably need more memory and / or a better processor and its dangerous tbh, if your PC isn't powerful enough, the editor can cause system damage.

mwebb Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I know you have stated the naming will not work with the real names fix - which I have also confirmed by loading the league up because I'm really interested in playing it. Is there anything I can do in the editor to ensure the naming of divisions are as you intended without undoing the real name fix? As I understand it, if I were able to restore/remove the real names fix it would effect every other save I currently have going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to play the game as it was intended, you would need to remove real name fix. You could put it into a separate folder on your desktop/laptop whilst playing the game, and then when you want to play a different game put it back or reinstall it again, but it is one or the other... real name fix does not work at all with this mod.

Fenech, used the English leagues to make this World league system, by using the real name fix, it will replace the name to english leagues. The solution is a bit simple, but it would mean Fenech to do the league from scratch. The solution is to create new leagues from scratch and not using the english ones. But since it is Fenech file, his decision prevails, either way I will enjoy it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

perfect79 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Hi Fenech, Great to see this update out again for FM21 - always been a fan of seeing teams face off against each other from around the world. Couple of questions from what I found from the FM20 version and wondering how they are with the FM21 release : 1) Scouting knowledge does not seem to match where a team is from ie was Colo Colo but had limited to no knowledge of the Chile or surrounding areas. 2) Is their anyway to have teams retain a core of players with nationality from their base country. On the last version I tried mess about with the club vision tool to try and make this happen but did not seem to work. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Hey, There is no need for knowledge of any other countries in this version as no where else exists except the pyramid. All players/staff have been freed from anywhere else they may have been and are now available to be signed by clubs within the pyramid Most teams do start with a core of their nationality. i guess its up to the manager to keep it that way...

Slaf4eg Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Hi, I've played one season and everything was great, got promoted, but now I ran into the problem where most of my players go to the national teams to play friendlies and I'm left without any real squad that can face the opposition. In the beginning of the season, I was prompted to delay one game due to internationals, could this have affected the whole calendar? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HI. Just finally recently decided to take the plunge and ditch my FM14 save and get FM21. Trying to get used to all the new features over these past few years. Because I so enjoyed the Super league save I had going on FM14, I decided to go for a similar thing right from the start this time. The database is really good and well-made. What is different about the 20th league level? And if I set it as view only, what will that change mean? And is there a way to make teams play on 2 days so that I can watch other teams matches if I want to? They all play at the same time/day and I loved watching other games on the next day in my FM14 save. Once again, thanks for the effort put into this.

I have over 10000 hours of experience in the editor. So I would hope that my work is top quality. The 20th Level adds a few hundred thousand players to the game and so probably best not to include it unless you have a premium computer. Teams play on Saturdays and Wednesdays mainly, Because of the League set up, it was more important to ensure that fixtures were not too close to each other, and there is at least 3 days between games. Therefore having the games over 2 days would not have been a viable option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially comparing this ME to FM14's which is quite interesting. Unfortunately though, the "not having any way to watch other teams matches" outside watching highlights "after the fact", is a real immersion breaker. I spend a lot of time going around in the game world and play all my matches in full. It just sucks having only your matches seem "real" or can be attended. It just not what a real game-world should look like and is a big oversight for my style of playing the game. For some other users, it might not be a big issue, who only have perhaps 15 mins each day to play the game so can only play their matches and on key highlight mode no more. But for my style, it just breaks so much immersion. I mean, having all the matches at 3pm each day at the same time for all the teams? :'( Anyway, is there any way to make this change better? As I said, I don't know if it was your DB edit that I was using on FM14 (or some other person called Chuckle Chuck), but there was league games, and two cup competitions on his too; and you get alternate scheduling as much as it allowed. And the fixtures didn't pile up either, and was still well spaced out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the above, I am not sure I completely understand the point you are trying to make. You can watch your own matches in full, extended, or key highlights or text only If your complaint is about not being able to watch other matches (not your own) then that would be a matter to take up with the makers of the full game aka Sports Interactive. Alot of the big rules are hard coded into the game so they would not be editable by anyone except the makers of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
